Do they not teach world history in canada? Jesus man..

You kinda lost the right to play that card when you tried to edumacate us on Canadian immigration policy.

Sorry, but I'm not very liberal when it comes to forgiving hypocrisy.

i would never lift a gun again if i could strike a deal with the universe that my kids would be spared from being mowed down like cattle. Sadly, the world doesn't work like that. I feel like i have a better chance of protecting my family from the madness, by having a firearm on my person at all times, but even that is no guarantee. Stricter laws won't do the trick. .

I sympathize man, honestly. I have a wife and son also and I would rather lose my own life than see them be the victims of a violent crime...

But the bolded part above does not hold water.

Is there greater chance of my family being the victims of violent crime in Canada?

No.


The best counterargument you can offer would be that you need a gun because the people who might have violent intent in your country are also likely to have access to a gun.

Do you see the problem here?

Nah you're right. Africa is safer then America. Now explain how you get criminals to turn in their guns?

Most Canadians would school you on any topic that has to do with History or Geography. You are absolutely spun if you think you have an argument to make about our education system.

Okay.. Thats fine, you were a marine, you know how to handle guns safely. Thats good. But doesnt it make you a little uneasy that non-ex-marines or whatever are out there with far less experience and have a large ego??

It was your choice to join the Marines. And you obviously interpret it as "defending your rights" but most people around the world see it as doing the dirty work of the American government. So stating your military history will garner no respect from me.

I've been down this road before, so i'll skip to the end of he game to save a few hours. How do we solve it? Lay down our arms, and hope the criminals do the same? Stop production of all guns tomorrow, and hope the 200 million weapons already in circulation gradually disappear? You're continually pointing out an obvious problem, but like everyone else in the world, you have no effective means of correcting the issue. Legislation only curtails those so inclined to obey. Do we form an SS group and have them conduct house to house sweeps for firearms? Think of the scale of this problem. It's an epidemic. I sound defeatus, but only because we're defeated. It's like walking into a cockaroach infested apartment with a can of bug spray. Sit back and enjoy the show.

Nice cover up.

Canada is in North America. It is North of the USA. Ergo, Canada is part of the USA.

Open my mind? Why dont you?

This is old. You keep fighting to take more rights away from us and we will fight to keep them.

You will eventually thank us for it.

Good night. Stay safe. Remember.. throw tour shoes at the guy breaking into your house. Much more effective then a gun!
