No wonder you're always broke, you're constantly making bad bets But it's impressive how little empathy you've got for these kids. It's just a joke for you, you've got what you want so the kids can go screw themselves. Nice attitude

No. In fact most people were extremely supportive of it and now that worm has turned. The left has made it so distasteful that the majority of people are not in favor of it any further. Which is pretty much like everything that the left touches. Climate change for example used to score second or third spot regularly on the various posters lists of priorities for Canadians. After 10 years of watching the liberals and the left wing climate nuts rip Canadians off it's now fallen to like 15th place And is largely a null issue. You guys ruin everything

Trump is not mentally well

LOL your lack of self awareness is simply epic -
You don't have a gun. And there are literally thousands of people who get pulled over every year in British ColumbiaTo have their gun checked and see if they're hunting legally. Yeah, things may have changed in the last 30 or 40 years. Go back far enough and you didn't need a driver's license either. Funny how that works As I said I suspect you are out of touch and you've just admitted you were. Fair enough, but that still means you're wrong . And by the way, I remember running into game wardens back in the seventies so maybe you really didn't use your enfield very much even when it wasn't crap? And I noticed you didn't comment about the fact that gun owners are literally screened every single day. Well there you go

Exactly. And over a relatively short. Of time if they had been interested in building a life instead of a death for themselves they would be unequal footing with the Israelis and enjoying prosperity. And they would save money on preparing for war and the Israelis wouldn't need to spend as much money and everybody will be better off . Instead they chose destruction and death and that's just a damn shame

Fair points and I accept that the hair split in this case is appropriate. I'm just reminded of that commercial where the person asks for directions and the old guy is like 'oh well you take a left at... no wait you take a right.... uhh.. I just realized, you can't get there from here it's a little depressing. Without a unifying common set of ethics and values countries don't tend to survive and usually countries are created by people who DO share such values and that's why they work... but once that's gone it's like putting the egg back together again. I'm not sure how to get there from here.

Yeah. It looks like they're going to continue to do so. Fun fact, as of right now for the first time in Canadian history older people over the age of 65 have a higher annual average income than young people under the age of 30.(35? can't remember) In other words if you're a hard-working young person established in your career your earning less than a retired person on average. That is not because seniors are earning so much. Add to the fact that they can never afford a home until they're well into their 50s as well as the fact that they can barely afford food which keeps going up each month by about 6% And it's easy to see why young people feel they're screwed

Because it doesn't exist. During that time they had endless opportunities to make things work and achieve an equal and prosperous partnership and they chose not to. And you're ignoring their choice to deliberately support terrorism hatred anger and death of not just the Israelis but their own people. I have no idea why you side with a terrorists, it will never make sense to me

Rob Reiner Dead. Trump Makes Huge Mistake

While I can certainly agree with the sentiment, the fact is just because they behave like complete tards and have no moral values doesn't always mean that we should be behaving the same way. As is often said, the risk of hunting monsters is that you become a monster, and if you stare too long into the abyss the abyss will stare into you. -
Sure. And the nature of that problem will change depending on when that happens assuming it does It will probably depend on how much of a threat carney thinks Poilievre is. If he thinks Poilievre is a serious threat and that there's nobody else who would be as much of a threat than he will instruct the floor cross her to cross before the leadership review. That will make things very difficult for Poilievre during the review. He will probably win but it will be a much tighter raceit will hurt them in a number of ways. If he thinks that Poilievre is no threat or that there might be someone who's an even bigger threat in the background should Poilievre step down, then he will instruct the floor cross her to cross the day after the leadership review. Poilievre will have already secured his position But this will totally undermine his position within the party and be a drag on fundraising, as well as killing any of the positive press he might get coming out of that leadership. I suspect he will do the latter, You just never know who might appear if Poilievre steps down and how well they'll do, at least poilievre is a known quantity. And you're not going to an election right away because you got your majority so why would you risk giving the CPC the opportunity to find an even more popular candidate? better to weaken pp and keep the infighting going as long as possible if you can while you sit on your majority.

I accept your concession. Yes tonnes, look at the glock for example. There's been massive improvements in safety in the industry. Not even one person. Show me ANY people who said that the improvements to the remmington 700 safety mechansim was a bad idea, or that we shouldn't move to Glock as i mentioned invented the Safe Action System, a revolutionary, partially-tensioned striker-fired mechanism that integrated multiple automatic safety features into a simple, reliable design with a consistent trigger pull. This design effectively resolved the longstanding conflict between immediate readiness and safe carry in semi-automatic pistols. Have you ever heard anyone say that glock should never have done that? They sell quite a few glocks you know You're such a liar People want their guns to be safe same as they want their cars to be safe. Guns either as it turns out. And it worked. And you want to abaondon what works in favour of your ideology. So, doesn't matter to you if people die, as long as you get to virtue signal about guns. False equivilancy. Nobody's checking if drivers are off their meds or depressed before driving. And gun owners are REGULARLY stopped at random to make sure their guns are safe and that they're not drinking or the like, i've been through dozens and dozens of conservation officer checkpoints in my day. The cops also drive around the known wilderness gun areas and talk to gun owners. And even more so - EVERY SINGLE DAY, every one without fail, the RCMP databases matches my gun lincese up against every court order or court case or report that enters their system and flags if i'm in ANY of them, so the cops can decide if my license needs to be suspended and they need to come get my guns. it's the same for every licensed gun owenr. Imagine if the cops scanned every single driver's license owner and if there was a report of spousal abuse or a report from a doctor about depression or even drunk and disorderly conduct they suspended the person's license and towed their car away. So you're 100 percent wrong as usual. As i suspected, not a gun owner so you didn't know any of this. But gun owners already go through vastly more scrutiny than drivers do, Game set and match kiddo

nope, yes or Arafat had the best chance and he blew it The next best chance came in 2014. And they blew that too They decided to start a war on October 7th and that blew up in their face. Literally They have had chance after chance after chance after chance to find a way to peacefully work it out and lived in prosperity and they make the deliberate decision not to and instead support hate and violence.. That's what you're defending

Yeah, it's pretty bad for him. I doubt it'll go down well. Sometimes it's best just to keep your mouth shut -

I mean, he's not wrong -
I accept your admission of defeat I actually enjoy watching your little tantrums. But I think a lot of other people are sick of you just consuming entire threads with it. I don't think I'd have too much trouble getting a bunch of people to suggest to Greg that you should be gone if all you're going to do is spam. And you do do a lot of spanning

Not saying you're wrong but some of that's a pretty tall order. You can't really reintroduce religion into people's lives, is something they come to on their own or not at all. And it's hard to reestablish things like a sense of responsibility to family. It's easy to destroy those things but it's not easy to create them in people without stepping on their rights pretty hard. The rest is doable of course. But it is been noted by experts that once a society's morals fall apart reestablishing it can be very difficult.

We take tons of measures to deliberately make guns safer. However, no matter what you do both cars and guns are going to be deadly if misused Same with guns. Better actions are created, better safeties are created, you don't see a lot of set triggers on rifles anymore, all kinds of measures are taken so ensure that modern designs don't go off when they're not supposed to, and when they do go off they don't blow up No they don't. I doubt you've ever owned a gun, and I'm certain you're prepared to lie about it either way, but explain to me how an M1 garand firing 30*06 cartridges is somehow LESS deadly than an m16 firing 5.56*45? The 30-06 is a FAR more lethal cartridge Because not bars like you focus all of their attention on guns and don't act like crazy Psychopaths when it comes to cars. Interestingly we did see political campaigns hinge on drunk driving measures. In those cases rather than focus on the vehicle and try and make the vehicle drunk proof, attention was focused on the driver and doing what could be done to deal with that. And lo and behold it worked pretty damn well. Drunk driving accidents historically or way lower especially in Canada. And it didn't involve any modifications to the vehicle in the slightest. Your knowledge of guns is based on fairy tales and left-wing propaganda. And you've just proven that the way to deal with problems is to deal with the operator not the machinery with your drunk driving example. Did you have anything else or are you done looking foolish for a bit?

It's not misused or misinterpreted. But it brings us back to the same old problem the romans wrestled with, Quis custodiet ipsos custodes? - Who will guard the guardians. The gov't has military and police forces to enforce order and guard against threats. But those forces can and often have been used by gov'ts to control the people. So to protect the people from those guards they created the right of the people to be armed, and THEY would be the guardians who guarded the guards,. But.... then who guards THOSE guardians? every time you create a force that is intended to be protective it can also be used to be offensive, and you must then have another force to protect against that offense and you're back to the same problem But at the end of the day worrying about the tool used is not terribly productive. The bad guys will always find tools.

Because that's where the evidence is pointing. I'm sorry I guess I should have written it as too soon to say for sure. I assumed most of the intelligent people on this board would get what my meaning was. I forgot you might be reading it too I doubt very much that this person cared about gun control one way or another. In fact if they were targeting republicans it works in their favor, they get to kill a republican and they also get to make the case for gun control True. There's been a lot of left-wing people shooting right-wing people these days
