Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Canada Proposal to ban handguns & assault rifles

Things are looking up.

I think an information campaign might be the way to go. A recent report on a home invasion in Sicamous mentioned that the two assailants carried handguns. I can only assume these were registered because that is, after all, the law. It is plain though, these guys were not aware that they were not allowed to use handguns for this purpose. If they were aware, I'm sure they would not have misused their handguns in this manner. In addition, it is unlikely their transport permits listed that address. So, this is certainly one of those situations where a little clarification would go a long way. The alternative would be to ban the ownership of the particular guns used in this instance and assume that the perpetrators would recognise this ban and the crime would be nipped in the bud. Now, there are undoubtedly some who don't see the logic in this but most liberals do. More laws make better living; so they say. GD

Greydog how did you become so wise? Contact your local Liberal, I'm sure they will jump all over this idea.

Yeah...whoever came up with this just plain doesn't understand the concept. Just like the States, and elsewhere where it has been tried...it has NOTHING to do with crime.

It is all about subjugating the populace.

Yeah, but they convinced the populace to subject themselves based on the crime reduction argument.
