Not me I was the guy who walked out of the store the last time without buying (provincial)

Now between salesman Steve,Thomas or Justin at this stage I,am probably still walking out the store.

Do you leave the store without buying,or pay for and get a faulty electric kettle?

what a stupid analogy. (sorry)

let's make it a little more realistic: all three kettles are not the same, and are faulty in different ways. plus you have to take a kettle to use for the next four years whether you like it our not.

go vote. even spoiling your ballot (telling the store their kettles are ) says a lot more than sitting on your and complaining. democracy's a lot different than capitalism.

Don't try to reason with him, he voted LIEberal, read his posts, it's very obvious, now he is trying to hide it

Honestly,liberal philosophy is so warped,it defies all logic and common sense. There's one burning question that someone asked that none of the liberals have been answering and that is "What does HG possession for hunters have to do with the criminals use of illegal firearms?" Apples and oranges,anyone?
Oh,BTW,I just got back from the Beer Store,so,carry on.

...and you're sure of that how exactly? Mr. New Guy.

Try taking the conversation back on point,and making some salient arguments of fact.

Pardon the off-topic digression, but it did, and it does. Controls on handguns in Canada function to drive up black market costs. This is what makes smuggling guns profitable. More importantly, increasing the cost of a black market gun prices guns out of the market for the petty crook. Consequently, handguns are rarely used in robberies here, compared to the US where handguns are readily and cheaply available on the black (and grey) market. This is all well documented. You can compare costs, and you can compare the rate of firearms use in armed robberies, which are a bottom-feeder's crime: risky, with low payoff.

So why is handgun crime the only category of crime that has increased in Canada since the 1970s, you ask? Easy: drugs. The drug trade is profitable enough that participants can afford black market guns; since they are essential tools, drug prices will rise to cover their cost anyway. (Robberies, on the other hand, can't become more lucrative.) If we legalized drugs tomorrow, handgun crime would plummet.

Similar effects can be argued for the gun registry in the US. "What registry?" you scoff ... the machine gun registry, in place since 1934. But this kind of logic does not apply to a long gun registry in Canada, so proponents of the LGR can't use this argument, but that's a whole nother discussion.

We now return to your scheduled programming.
