Off Topic ... shooting stuff
didn't you guys just have a massive school shooting in Saskatchewan
Yes, we did. Unlike the United States, Canadians have a profound faith that our government's registration, taxing, and eventual confiscation of legally owned firearms will eliminate this type of tragedy. Please refrain from exposing on our national delusion.
What we have yet to address is how to eliminate insanity, but we're working on it.
Cheers, PW.
P.S. So far the cost of registering each privately owned firearm is above $15,000. (Over a $100,000,000 spent so far, and a few more years to go.) The police, who originally supported the measure, are now opposed. One can only imagine the public good which could be achieved at a nine-digit cost.
P.P.S. I've a few neighbours who are really upset over this. I hear their side of the story almost daily. The TV and papers supply the opposing view. When the TV, papers, politicians, and the like are united in their opinion, the common person better be on guard, because their exploitation is a certainty. (In every country!) |
