Thank you Barack, very cool
Always said that Canada has more to fear of the USA than Taiwan does of China. USA scares me on a fundamental deep rooted level, Putin is just exercising his tanks.
Maybe it *is* time to call in Britain to tackle the evil USA.

0.5 gram microsd delivered by 12,000 pound combustion vehicle and driver.
Capacity has zero effect on safety. Any tard can quickly change a magazine, having a messenger bag with 30 high cap magazines that are blocked to 5 rounds like here in Canada isn't going to make anyone safer. With 400 million guns already floating around in the USA, licensing is pretty pointless now there too.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
You realize that law enforcement "training" by and large is typically under 1000 rounds fired (this is the case for the RCMP for example clocking in at around 900+ rounds fire in training), and that by the FBI's own stats that over 85% of all rounds fired by L/E in the USA miss their targets? People with this false sense that somehow L/E is "safer" and "better trained" than joe random is pretty laughable. There are exceptions of course, I've known many L/E that have excellent shooting skills, but the majority don't.Naturally. And of course, all those pistol-toting patriots are trained to law-enforcement levels to ensure they don't kill any bystanders or themselves in the process.
In about five to ten years, school shooters wont have to be onsite to do a mass killing. They will just need know how to pilot a drone, and there is also a good chance they will get away without being caught.
This poses a problem for law enforcement, as they also will have to upgrade to anti-aircraft technology as a criminal that will drone a school, will likely concurrently drone a local law enforcement station at the same time.
This is america, get your money.

Do you know, if i was inclined to shoot up a public place, it would take me less than an hour to procure several high capacity magazines without even a PAL? First stop, cabela's, next stop Lowes.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

I am aware.
Very few of these people are going to spend time planning. They go off and look for convenience in accessing whatever their weapon of choice is.
Repeat after me!
It's far too easy to access high capacity firearms in the US.
There, that's it.
Honest question but aren't most of them planned pretty thoroughly? Nova Scotia was months in the works, same with the vegas shooting. I would argue that very few of these unfortunate mass killings (guns, cars etc) are not planned.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

I completely agree. But I also agree with those saying there is something fundamentally wrong in the USA which is contributing to these people going off the deep end at a higher rate than other countries. Ultimately, some will still kill as many as they can. While frequency would likely be reduced, I think the stronger reduction would be the volume of those killed during such occurrences.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member.

On the gun control side, it's about reducing the tools of death, and reducing volume of deaths when they do occur. The harder it is to obtain a legal firearm, and the less lethal that firearm is, there would be less instances and less volume of deaths when it DOES occur. There are of course arguments already stated about de-pinning a magazine, or getting a firearm from your buddy or the black market - but there are exceptions to every rule. I don't see how anybody could realistically deny that simply based from a logical, common sense perspective.
But there would certainly still be mass killings. Some will still obtain weapons they should not own, and some of those weapons will still be just as lethal depending on the source. Some will only kill 3-4 people instead of 30 because all they could get ahold of is a "lesser" weapon. Some might decide not to even bother, since they wouldn't reach the goal of killing enough people to even make the news. But it WILL still happen. So this isn't a problem that can be solely solved with gun control, but at least regulation can be done relatively quickly. As a long-term and near-total solution, healing people psychologically and healing the country on a sociological level is a far more difficult and much longer process - but would be required before we see these senseless mass killings become a rarity again.
Here is a link to incidents of mass shootings in the US in 2022.
Defined as four or more injured or killed in the shooting.

TLDR: These are happening nearly every day in the US.
Nova Scotia I'm a little on the fence about how well it was planned. Seemed a little reactionary to me, made a nice tinder box and just needed a spark to set it off.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Vegas however... was next level.
Hard disagree here. If there is a meaningful punishment for modifying a pinned magazine then people wont do it.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Similarly, if people who sell guns (business or private) to mass murderers or even criminals in general could be meaningfully charged or being complicit in the crimes committed, businesses may start doing their own background checks etc.
Just my 2c
I don't even understand why the fuck anyone here, the USA or even the NRA would be oppose responsible gun ownership with more restrictions to help prevent this shit from happening.
I say help because no it will not prevent it, but do something. Does the USA need to ban semi-auto weapons like the British? Prob not, but my god, make them harder to get.

I just want to know who's idea it was to put a rivet in a high capacity magazine and call it Good Nuff in Canada. It's honestly the dumbest thing i've ever seen and I have a bunch of them.

On a US based form I saw a suggestion that the solution was to hire veterans to guard the school, to help with unemployment and protect the kids.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
This is a GREAT idea. Give a veteran, possibly suffering from PTSD, a gun and tell him his job is to protect the school where any one of these kids he sees everyday could snap at any moment and start shooting up the school at anytime. Bravo! school shootings solved, new problem school shootings.
BTW: I read somewhere that this Texas shooter walked past 2 armed school security and a cop was in the school, like Sandy Hook.
If you're talking about Canada, any business that sells a firearm already makes sure the buyer has a valid license through the online portal and private sales have to show a license before anything change hands. Anyone, private or business, validates the transfer of a restricted with the CFP. Anyone with a license undergoes DAILY continuous eligibility screening through CPIC and the CFO. Unless it is shown they either knew about the intent or sold the item unlawfully, saying that someone who sells an item that is later used in a crime should be charged as well is foolishness. You might as well start dragging dealerships into court with drunk drivers then.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
On the fence how? The guy spent years obtaining guns that were smuggled into Canada and modifying a vehicle. He didn't wake up one morning, find a gangbanger on the corner and buy a Glock with a scratched off serial number. For years, the RCMP failed every single step of the way in Nova Scotia and every death that occurred was preventable if they had done their job with even a shadow of competence.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member.
