Gun control

Here in Canada, gun conrtol is harsh. You need your F.A.C to buy a gun and ammo. And If you have owned a gun before the new regs, and don't plan on buying another gun, you need a P.A.L to buy ammo.

Registering a gun, I can respect. But to take a 2 month course when you already know how to fire, clean and lock up a fire arm? That's the most horrible gun law, ever. 2 weeks I can see..Because If you're going to buy a gun, you're going to know how to use it. Why would you buy a gun if you don't know how to use it?

"Honey, I think today...Im going to get a 2 month course that wastes all my spare time, and buy a .30 Magnum Belgian Browning for absolutely no reason what so ever"

There's no good reason to make it so long to get your F.A.C..Unless they want to make it long so people think it takes too long to get. There's a sence of gun control. 

a few days ago i dropped by my local gun store to look around with my uncle its a real cool shop they've got all these pistols and police gear like this riot helmet that stops a .44 point blank to the seethru visor. anyway, i saw a battle rifle behind the counter and asked the guy what it was doing there and he told me they had recently lifted the ban on battle rifles. i was quite impressed with it.

So, just because criminals "started out as innocents", we should take guns away from people who have done nothing wrong with them? Your logic is flawed!

It only takes once to kill someone in a car crash,amd you could conceivably kill dozens of people in once acident....why not outlaw fast cars or SUV's?

Because people just chalk it up as another accident...even though it happens everyday.

But an accident involving a firearms happens a couple times a year, and people feel "unsafe" so they will pass any law they can think of to find some comfort.

For people that believe in the right to be arms, having the right to own and use these guns are our way of feeling safe.

Like I said, I've never shot anybody by acident, killed anybody, had a gun stolen, or even been arrested for doing anything illegal with a gun...why should my right be taken away just because "everybody start out innocent".

By that reasoning, we should throw people in jail as soon as they exit the womb!!!!!!!

That is absolutely not true.  Not even close.

I am for legally owning all types of guns.  As long as certain checks and precautions are taken (like background checks, waiting periods, etc.) I don't see why a law abiding citizen can own any type of firearm he or she wants.  Our founding fathers thought this as well.  Too bad the loopjobs in congress 30 years ago didn't realize this.

gun control means hitting your target

Boy, I wish the fiancee would let me have 3 other girlfriends.

psshh... wish I even had a gf...

how bout you?
