Scotty, instead of us going up there where they can't own an evil handgun, maybe he should come down here where he's welcome!

Not to mention all of the deaths caused by heart attacks, maybe banning hearts would save a few lives.

If they'd stop using human silhouette targets everything would be fine!

toolman, you have not idea. the company i work for has a division stateside and i have inquired about a transfer before. at this time i just cant uproot my entire family, i would cause too much harm. my girls have serious longterm boyfriends, the move would destroy them. things wont be this way forever though.

banning idiots in government would be a fine start.

Troy...I would be Mobilizing ALL the gun owners if I were you...
Your Officials are ELECTED aren't they ??? They are supposed to represent , Not Control....
CANADA does have some strict Laws, but look at England and Australia...
Get the Stats on Criminals in both countries and then Shove em in The councils FACE !!!
Oh and tell them it is NONE of their ""EFFING Business" what we do in the United States , since we Kicked the British Ass in the 1700's !!! We are Citizens , Not Subjects !

Horse crap every where you turn these days isn't. No one's immune from the political garbage.

Troy, Mooseman's right, you guys have got to act. Get together. Fight it don't just let them do it.
Maybe they'll listen. Send everyone of them the article that was recently posted on here about the Obama saying we cling to our guns. Because in it, he quotes all the places and figures from them, that tried gun control/disarming the populace and the fact it hasn't worked. Do anything you can.

Here's the article, I'll save you the time of looking for it.
Townhall.com::Bitter, Clingy Gun Owners of America::By Doug Giles

In Canada, some 84,000 legally registered, restricted weapons have been reported lost or stolen since 1974, Miller said. He wants to prevent those weapons from ending up in the hands of violent criminals.
"It's those guns that, if we prohibit the ownership of handguns, we can get off the streets. It's that simple. We can cut those sources off if we ensure handguns are no longer allowed to be owned in this country."
HAHAHA, ROFLMFAO !! How absurd ! Now remember boys and girls these here BANNED handguns that were STOLEN, by CRIMINALS, cannot be used during a crime or to commit murder .

I am stunned that people really are that stupid.

It wouldnt work anyways, its just taking the legal guns from people. The illegal guns that are killing people will still be there. As the one guy says in the article.
