It is the bigger issue for sure. It's amplified with that culture having so many weapons available. NRA has completely hijacked the 2nd amendment and their people are taught pretty much nothing but how to hate each other. So much of their population goes through the military/police and see everything from a perspective of a killer.... killing people is glorified at every angle. People don't even notice how movies have moved onto the hero/good guy being a murdering psychopath killing out of revenge and all the moral messages leading people towards excepting this as noble rather than a line between right and wrong. It's the American way in everyone else's country as well. A nation of people who learned geography by joining the military and being deployed as an occupier feeling superior over their people because you are at the right end of the gun. It must be hard to give up that power you have on people once you get home to you gun collection.

Exactly

50% of the guns owned by 6% of the population, collectors are not criminals.

But most of them are paid for. Wait until they have thousands of unsold tickets, it will probably never happen in a Canadian city but these prices would be falling if they had lots of unsold tickets.

If there's apathy, the price is secondary.

It's getting harder to give away your tickets. My cousin in Surrey offered me tickets in Dec. for the March 7th game and I said no thanks.

True story, years ago when the Canuck's really sucked we had two tickets and free parking, we parked and decided to watch the game in a bar. Left two tickets under my wiper blades, when we got back there was 4

Same with hunters. That's why the long arm registry was a farce. It was for deer and bird guns not handguns and assault rifles and wasted billions that could have been used at the border or enforcing on organized crime. Meanwhile they saturated us with stats for hand guns which was mostly from smuggled guns... and handguns had been on registry since the 1930's. Any stats used from handguns and assault rifles to justify a registry is a fail then. They were already on a registry and pointing to an increasing problem should have tipped people off how bullpoop it was.

When your gov lies about firearms like that, you cannot blame hunters and collectors from thinking it's about gun grabbing. Meanwhile, the same community has learned to live with our gun laws. Knowing so many hunters, they've gone from vocally rejecting our laws to looking at what could happen without reasonable restrictions and saying it's needed. Polar opposite on restrictions vrs registry and it's plain as day why. One is about our safety and the other looks like a scam.

Graph?

That one has some graphs in it and explains some neat stuff.

Pick 17 has a 64 percent chance of playing 100 games, a 26 percent chance of becoming a top 4 defencemen and a 56 percent chance of being a number 6 or worse defencemen
the chart is in here. I don't want to know how to embed it, I'm not a nerd.

Also, here is a graph just for you showing the direct link between my desire to trade tanev and the probability of Littlegrain becoming as good.

If a person is dangerous and unstable, the first step to rehabbing them is to take away the tools that make them dangerous so you can give proper help.
- NorthNuck

yes....its the same reason we keep nuclear weapons away from dictators.

it is true that in the USA its a cultural issue, but it's much easier to restrict military assault weapons than to change an entire culture and fix that mess that they have there.
