I do not object to guns, I have been trained to use them. However, is there a practical use for a civilian to possess a semi-automatic weapon outside of the military that I am missing?
let me guess, you live in the city, always have
you sound like a typical liberal, I don't need it so why should you have it, I want to ban it, take it away
that's the argument, not logic, facts, reality
go ask the people in the north who can't run to a supermarket in 5 mins why they need a rifle
cause that's what the Liberals are banning, rifles, in this case
there is no difference between a semi-auto you can get in Canada and a "scary" "black" semi-auto "so called" like all the other things the liberals don't like, "so called"
assault rifle, which is what the Military have, not civilians, you haven't been able to buy one in Canada, forever
CANADA DOESN'T HAVE ASSAULT RIFLES, THAT'S A LIE, A LIE ANYONE WHO SAYS IT, LIKE THE LIBERALS, NDP SHOULD BE SHOUTED DOWN UNTIL THEY
TELL THE TRUTH, THEY NOT AND NEVER HAVE BEEN ASSAULT RIFLES OR EVEN ASSAULT LIKE RIFLES IN CANADA
THEY'RE ALL SEMI AUTOS, WHICH ALL FUNCTION THE SAME, AND ARE NO MORE DEADLY THAN A SINGLE SHOT OR BOLT ACTION IN THE HANDS OF SOMEONE
WHO IS SKILLED IN USING THEM OR EVEN UNSKILLED, BUT THE MEDIA AND LIBERALS SHILL IT LIKE IT'S NOT REALITY
just like we've had proper Handgun Legislation and registration since the 1930's
just like people who are lawful owners aren't the one's committing crimes with them in any numbers to warrant taking them away
cause you don't have the ability to understand why someone else might want one, need one, use one
we have laws, had stronger laws, which Trudeau got rid of recently to deal with the minority of people who aren't "civil" when it comes to firearms
they should be harsher, or do you not believe a person who's willing to go into civil society and fire off a gun, any kind in public shouldn't be put in jail for a long time?
but where are all the whining superficial Liberal/NDP who won't support or enact those laws? everywhere, cause that would require actually doing something useful
instead they do the opposite but equivalent of "hope and prayers"
enact useless regulations and laws that won't go after the actual people committing the crimes and leave the law abiding people they don't like alone
go look at the facts, how few people are actually murdered every year, how the past 20 years of laws or lack haven't moved the needle statistically to even bother
cause they're coming from the States, the number one issue, which they won't do anything about, go look where they're coming over
Indian Reserves, in Que and Ont, that straddle the border, where the political bitches are too scared to go, for fear of being called a racist
just like the EA, which didn't meet the legal threshold, it was enacted to play to the political base of the Liberals/NDP, same with the bans, buybacks on guns
not facts
just look at the US, they don't tell the truth, go look, around 50% or so, might be slightly more of the "GUN DEATHS" they always spout off everytime
are SUICIDES, NOT MURDERS, SUICIDES EVERY YEAR, YEAR AFTER YEAR
IN CANADA, DO YOU EVERY SEE HOW MANY MURDERS ARE GANG MEMBERS KILLING OTHER GANG MEMBERS?
YOU KNOW FACTS, ACTUAL FACTS? SUICIDES? REPORTED TO THE SIMPLE MINDED LIBERALS IN THE CITIES WHO GO YEAH TAKE THAT AWAY
CAUSE IT DOESN'T AFFECT ME, SO FUCK THAT OTHER GUY!!!
I GOT MINE
JUST LIKE ALL OF BC AND QUE AND ONT WHEN IT COMES TO OIL AND GAS
WE GOT OURS, BUT NOT A DROP MORE ACROSS OUR LANDS
YEAH, WHY DOESN'T SOMEBODY ELSE NEED SOMETHING YOU DON'T
THE NEW LIBERALS, PROGRESSIVES, NICE
