Obviously banning alcohol in the 1920s didn't work...
Anyway its the idiots that use them, just like alcohol, drugs and all that fun stuff, it all depends on how you use it...

A license to GET a gun? Yep, that would suck but I would still do it if it would help get the guns out of the hands of criminals...of course....it would not so.......
I wonder why it's soo much safer in Canada?... dumb assed yankie.
Its much safer in canada because most of you are descendants of hippy 1960's draft dodgers & the french. Neither of which knows how to handle a weapon if you got handed one.
Selling crack cocaine will get you 20, think that has stopped it?
& yea 95% will be gone, those 95% make up 0% of the problem
the other 5% will be the criminals & murderers, the same people that cause the problems.
what about all the accidental killings from guns from legitimate people? Doctors are now saying it's a HEALTH HAZARD if you own a gun - there are soo many accidential shootings. Look at the stats from the american medical association - not NRA propaganda.

actually quebec is the least safe province.
canadians had a much higher kill ratio per soldier in WW2 than americans did.

folks - don't get me wrong, I'm all for hunting rifles and shotguns. I personally don't believe there is a need for the general public to own handguns or assault rifles.

nowhere near the same numbers get shot.
it's like driving without a seatbelt. sure people who wear seatbelts will still die in car crashes - but nowhere near the same amount of people will die as if we didn't have or wear seatbelts. Yes a couple of people will die BECAUSE of the seatbelt too - but I'd rather loose 2 people with a seatbelt on than 100 without one on.
Same thing with handguns and assault rifles.

Lower amount of minorities.
Not in Vancouver!! I'm white and sometimes I feel like a minority. I've been in English stores (not Chinese, English stores) and I was the only white guy there.
Toronto has lots of black people, Vancouver has alot of Chinese. Minorities don't cause the problems here, and Canada has alot of them.

I'd rather people died through personal choice than through mandatory laws - but hey - I've got my own mind, I'm over 21 so why should 'I' be allowed to choose what I want to do? Guns are in existence - therefore criminals will have them - I'd rather have a .22 rim fire in my pocket 'just in case' than get popped. It's all about education - I've been trained in firearms. Every single person who wants a firearm should be fully trained (at their own expense) in it's use and what happens with mis-use.
When you got a small dick you need to compensate it with a big gun.
I'm glad your not allowed to have a gun here.
Even better..... when they catch you with one you'll get locked up.
And the statement that guns don't kill people but people kill people is nonesense.
Sure the person pulls the tricker but that;s not the point........ Some people go crazy for just looking at them..... If he goes crazy and he carries a gun with him he'll shoot..... if he doesn't carry a gun he'll use his fists....... You'll have more change of surviving when you get a fist in your face then a bullet.
Violent crime goes down in states that allow its citizens to carry concealed weapons. Bad guys don't know who might be carrying so they tend to behave better.
Trust me last thing you mother fuckers want is your guns to get banned!
That Leave you 100% Exposed to tryanny by anyone who has a gun.
Police, military, robber, enemy...etc
--
Banning Guns will Be Americas Worst Nightmare!
--
The Military could walk right in and take control of all of america.
And no one could defend themselves or family from the takeover!
--
The Right to bear arms is a constitutional right!
You cannot over-ride that! Its impossible!
Its there to protect your from government getting out of control!
--
Dont give them up!!
EVER!!!
Drugs are illegal, but if someone wants them, they will find a way to get them. It would be the same for guns. Then all the people who want to play by the rules can sit back like a bunch of suckers and let some crackhead decide their fate.
There has to be a better solution, possibly increased safety training?
Originally posted by JTW possibly increased safety training?
Yup, make sure everyone knows proper handling procedures, how to load & unload a gun, how to check & make sure the chamber is empty everytime they put their hands on it.
Proper use of the safety mechanisms, proper storage & cleaning.
These things should be taught to everyone wanting to buy a handgun or rifle ...period.
what about all the accidental killings from guns from legitimate people? Doctors are now saying it's a HEALTH HAZARD if you own a gun - there are soo many accidential shootings. Look at the stats from the american medical association - not NRA propaganda.
I remember a story about a surgeon who specialized in spinal cord injuries. He want to a medical conference in another country and toward the end voiced a complaint that the conference seemed ignore spinal injuries caused by trauma related to gunshot wounds. The other doctors stared at him blankly. One of them said, "I have never seen a gunshot wound." Most of the other doctors nodded in agreement.
What the pro-gun lobby has yet to explain is whether it is just the availability of guns which makes them a common weapon of choice here in the US, or is it just that Americans are particularly inept at handling guns, or is it the fact that crooks feel they need to be armed because they are likely to run into much more than a billy club or can of pepper spray?
One thing is for sure: Gunshot wounds and deaths are much more common in the US than in any other country which isn't in a wartime situation.
Why is that?
SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.
