All the Europeans, Americans, Canadians, etc. here who glorify the laws they have regarding guns and anything else - they're only affirming that those who govern us believe that people in general can't act like intelligent and responsible human beings. And they're totally right about that.

Let me get this straight. You made the point that guns shouldnt be illegal because they are inanimate objects. So I ask you if nukes should be legal to anyone, because they are also inanimate objects. And you reply that 'the general person is NOT responsible and quite often a primitive animal with two opposable thumbs and free will' and 'nuclear weapons aren't publicly available because there are people who would play with them.' And guns are different how??? Thanks for proving my point.
