Sounds good to me. Guns are a waste of time.

The thing is, all the bad guys will keep their illegal guns, while the law-obiding citizens will have to surrender theirs.

He's just doing that because two people in Ottawa got there brains blow out in China town a couple days ago.
He wants to make himself look like the good guy.

One guy was shot 10 times.

All politicians ever wanna do is make themselves look like the good guy, especially during a fuckin Xmas election. But the cops out here in Vancouver are apparently starting to notice a trend of increased handgun usage or whatever. Personally I don't even think civilians should be allowed to own guns. All they ever do is cause trouble and I'm sure the people that use them "properly" at shooting ranges and for hunting can fuckin live without it or move to a country where it's allowed.

Way to push the alberta voters even more to the conservatives.

We just got a notice at work to watch out for people who buy products to make Meth in large quantities.
If we suspect someone we proceed with the sale then notify the RCMP.

We're allowed to own them in this country. I live in Vancouver too and have seen the same stories but the fact is that those guns were fired by local gangs fighting over drug territory. You can bet your ass not one of those guns was legally purchased, registered, or licensed. This type of legislation is useless since it does nothing to get guns out of real criminals hands. This is simply more political grandstanding and a waste of our tax dollars. Think of how many officers could be added to the organized crimes departments for the cost of this inane project.

how many law-abiding citizens do you know that walk around with handguns?
Do you even think before you start typing?

Well that was the argument when some state in the US wanted to ban guns, I dunno if the same is true here.

toxicbug doesnt have a mind of his own, he just copies other people's opinions

Post by **shadd_** » Fri Dec 09, 2005 5:32 pm

our handgun laws are already pretty tight. i don't really see how this will help with all the illegal handguns coming in from the usa.

Post by **Jackal** » Fri Dec 09, 2005 5:35 pm

it can't hurt either though.

would you get some money for handing in your gun, don't they cost a lot OTC?
