Generally, when you begin a rant with a ridiculously false premise, ie that criminals are allowed to have guns, then you undermine any credibility your follow on points may have. $1: I work a full time job, married with a daughter, have a mortgage and car payment. I pay all my bills, don't steal, or hurt anyone. I'm a very responsible person and so is my wife yet we are not allowed to prepare to defend ourselves yet criminals are allowed to do so. I'm curious. How are you not allowed to defend yourself? Is it because you can't open carry a pistol? $1: Also, why are politicians allowed to have body guards that firearms? Oh wait, they're criminals so they're allowed. You're reverting back to making idiotic points.

It's also why some parts of Canada may choose not to be a part of Canada. Just the same as the chatter is starting on the topic of Arizona seceding from a USA that refuses to protect Arizona from murderous and violent illegal immigrants. http://orangepunch.freedomblogging.com/ ... ive/26535/

Well, the USSR and Yugoslavia contained some very disparate peoples who clearly did not like each other but were held in check by very powerful totalitarian regimes. When those regimes failed, then it stands to reason that those peoples may not want to stick around each other. Then there's the US and Canada's situation and the divisive if not completely destructive issue of gun control. One that threatens to create a Mad Max/Postman/The Road scenario, and maybe even the Rapture, here in North America. I guess if you look at it like that, it could happen here.

While it may be a divisive issue in Canada it's expected this next month that the US Supreme Court will (correctly) rule that the Constitution views gun control as a violation of a fundamental civil right. Which puts the Supreme Court in line with the laws of forty US states. And I seriously doubt the other ten would secede because they want to ban guns. But, on topic, the matter of the Federal government refusing to secure the borders and then castigating Arizona for doing the job IS something that can cause a secession. The safety of Arizona residents will be accomplished and while I certainly hope that secession is not the way it gets handled, the question of Arizona secession only arose because the liberal states started boycotts against Arizona. More likely, this will be the issue that gets Obama tossed out of office in 2012 when African Americans realize that Obama puts their rights and interests behind illegal aliens from Mexico.

PluggyRug PluggyRug: Anti-gun advocates seem to be frightened of something, they also seem to be lacking in a plausible explanation of that fear. Which anti-gun advocates are you speaking of Plugs? There don't seem to be any here?

Uh... your latest rant has exactly what to do with the thread? This is about the RCMP in CANADA, Bart. Bitch on a Yankee forum if you want to effect change in the US. You're wasting your breath trying to bludgeon a Canadian forum into buying how you guys run your shit in the states.

I like how this article from the National Post and it's take on our gun laws. This was specifically talking about Bruce M. Ont supreme court ruling which BTW in now on appeal to SCC. http://network.nationalpost.com/NP/blog ... istry.aspx"The Montagues were in the wrong place. A few hundred miles south, the U.S. Supreme Court was pondering this week whether to extend Second Amendment rights that the justices confirmed for gun owners in Washington, D.C. two years ago, to gun owners throughout the United States. A man named Otis McDonald asked the Court to let him keep a gun for his protection in Chicago, whether municipal authorities liked it or not. The justices reserved. Come June, chances are a majority will say yes. Two nations, sufficiently similar in culture, history, religion, language and basic values for their citizens to be mistaken for one another, with fundamentally different answers to essentially the same question. Why? My guess is because our neighbours drafted America’s 1791 Amendments in freedom’s sunrise. We drafted Canada’s 1982 Charter in freedom’s twilight. Or a few minutes later."

DeBoom DeBoom: I'm not saying you can just go out and buy one but it certainly isn't out of the question to get automatic weapons in Canada. With enough money and a little persistence its defiantly possible. Failing that one can always smuggle their own in.
And here we have wonder and joy of living in a country with a law and order Prime Minister. Full auto weapons and carrying concealed without permit are illegal and a real law and order P.M. would say if you are caught with one or the other it's 10 years in Kingston.
