    I'm not sure if that's sarcasm about robbery and murder, but in case you don't know, THEY ARE AS ILLEGAL AS GUNS HERE IN THE GREAT WHITE NORTH! Where I am now forced to add, we have far less per capita of both than many areas of the US. I can't say why that is for sure, but I have ideas why.
    Well, if murder and robbery are illegal, and it still occurs, who commits the murders and robberies? Does anyone obey the law in Canada?... or is it just criminals who disobey the law? Any chance it would be the same people who commit murder and robberies who would not obey the law to turn in their guns? How do the people who have obeyed the law and turned in their guns protect themselves from those who don't?



    If you cannot fire a gun without "spraying bullets into the air and hitting everything," perhaps you should not have guns... At least without some guidance from someone familiar with the operation of firearms.

    I'm going with "agree to disagree" on this one. There is no law to turn in guns because your not allowed to have them. Criminals will always find ways and new ways to get what they want, illegal or not, that's what makes them criminals. If you fire your rifle, whatever kind, once, and hit the target, that's skill. Holding the trigger and using multiple bullets and only hit the target half the time, I consider that asking for collateral damage. That's what video games are for.

    So what happens to someone who had a gun when the "not allowed to have guns" law was written? I am happy to agree to disagree. The problem is that you and those who agree with the position you take want to take the guns. I am not for writing a law that forces you to own and carry guns, but you seem to be okay enforcing your desire by taking away guns by force of law. The left does not seem to be happy to live and let live, they (you) feel compelled to make everyone live as you want them to live.
