    Agreed for the most part.

    Post the article, because as I recall in that article they defined """kids""" as people aged 17-25 in major urban centres with gang problems.

    I also agree for the most part, but I do believe some things need to scale back simply because of common sense. Like why can't I shoot my .22 pistol at cans in the woods just like my .22 rifle? Or why ban rifle simply because of a physical style when it is exactly the same as a legal rifle in everything except appearance? Things like that...

    I would be. Being back in the big city, some of these drivers need to be weeded out of the population.
    Weeded out, how? It sounds like you're advocating for summary executions for being cut-off, so I just want to clarify what you mean here.

    I agree in the sense that many of the gun laws tend to draw a pretty arbitrary line, but I think that's because a line has to be drawn somewhere. The Government of Canada, ultimately, chose concealability and barrel/firearm length as those lines. It sucks for those firearms that reside on the opposite side of that line, but regardless of where you draw that line, there will always be a subset of items that are right on that bubble who will be upset about it. Keep moving the line to appease that group, you just create a whole new subset of people who are upset, and the cycle continues.

    Case in point, does it make much sense that there's a 5-cartridge limit on centre-fire, semi-auto long guns when there is no capacity limit on rim-fire, semi-auto long guns? Not really. But the federal government chose to say they are okay with lots of .22 fire and nothing else. If you keep appeasing to the next group of bullets on the scale, eventually you just end up allowing it all.

    Politically, and Constitutionally, it's easier to restrict equipment than people. Start adding additional requirements for people to get guns, and people start screaming about how it infringes on their freedoms.

    Ummmm wut?

    There are already numerous hoops to jump through to obtain a firearms licence in canada and the arbitrary classifications of firearms you listed are not even the tip of the iceberg / not really accurate.

    None of canada's already extensive gun control measure address this, which is the number one source of crime-used guns by a large margin(99%):

    On Friday morning, Lambton OPP, with the help of the St. Clair Township Fire Department, used a bucket truck to retrieve a large drone from a tree located on the bank of the St. Clair River — attached was a bag containing 11 handguns.

    You only have to start thinking about his nonsense to get people going, that's the mark of a very effective troll, however unintentional. That actually deserves a tip of the hat!

    The problem is that it is not simply a case of "a line has to be drawn somewhere"... It is that the line keeps moving, and not based on anything resembling common sense or scientific proof and reason. It keeps moving simply out of the appeasement of an extremely unaffected voter. Even worse is the government/media happily invests into instilling and perpetuating false fear to create these voters and to push their agenda even further.

    If you cannot see that I am honestly shocked.

    Maybe this is the reason for the plastic bag ban, but the incident also proves the bags are not single use.

    Number one source of criminal guns in Canada is legal purchases, then either resold or stolen.

    That is absolutely false for sure. #1 source is guns coming over the border by far. Far far far.

    That seems like an easy argument to settle with data. Does any exist?

    Testifying before the Commons public safety committee on Tuesday, Toronto Police Deputy Chief Myron Demkiw said that of the crime guns last year that investigators could trace, 86 per cent were smuggled into Canada from the United States — a trend he said has been on the increase since 2019.

    “Our problem in Toronto are handguns from the United States,” he said in response to Conservative MP Raquel Dancho’s question about the Trudeau Liberals’ nearly billion-dollar federal buy-back program — one that would allow legal gun owners to turn in so-called military-style assault rifles banned by Ottawa a year-and-a-half ago.

    “The issues around investing in what you described is certainly not going to deal with the crime problem we’re facing in Toronto, as it relates to the use of criminal handguns.”

    Now break that down to legal gun owners shooting each other vs immigrants in gangs.

    The gangs really need to be given extensive firearms training so they stop missing so often. Less innocent victims, less gang members living.

    That sounds like something the city would be on board with.
    Similar to safe injection site downtown, no?
