prairiechickin Next time you come to my area I would also like to meet with you. You also hold values dear to me and you are welcome at my club as a friend any time. Let's go shooting, and bring your kids.

I live in Hope B.C. brother. Your a good father to spend your valued time with your son and his friends. They are learning lessons from you that they will not learn anywhere else. They are lessons they will never forget. They are an imprint of you and what you stand for. Thank you for being there. Come shoot with me anytime at our club in Hope.

prairiechickin / Derek L I was raised in the city but I still hold the same proud Canadian values as you. My father taught me how to be a man and respect others at the same time. I respect women, I respect my neighbor, I respect our flag, and I respect firearms. I also respect the efforts and sacrifices of our armed forces. They are the ones who died for our freedom and rights. Being Canadian is more then sitting back and criticize what has been given to us. How dare they. How dare they.

Here it is cybercoma......... Your chance to tell it like it is. I'm giving you a vote to say if I'm right or wrong. You only get to answer "YES" or "NO". If you answer with a comment you loose by default. Have my comments about children and their parents been anti-Canadian by Canadian values? "yes" or "no"

I shouldn't have to put up with the noise from day care centers either. It upsets me hearing kids playing. I guess we can lobby our local government to shut them down.

Well, so far it's Mike and me. Now if he tells two friends, and I tell two friends. Hmmmm this could really work.

I don't want to see anyone bring there children into public view anymore either. Kids scare the shit out of me so they should all go to jail if they do. Let's see, about 5 miles outside of city limits should be enough I'd say. You see, I don't have any kids, and I never plan to have kids, so I don't care. Don't think for a second this can't happen either. All I need to do is convince enough ignorant voters to go along with me and Bob's ur uncle.

Not me. I have always said the 2 billion bucks should be spent to support gun clubs. Not shut them down. Support knowledge and conservation. As a result you will get less crime by default.

Oh, I forgot about the diaper tax. We need to think about the environment too.

OK, I have an idea. Since there are too many dead beat fathers and mothers, lets complain to the government about it and demand they do something about it. I can see it now, first there will be a mandatory parenting course to achieve a license. Then you would need to prove you are mentally stable enough and financially secure in order to get the permit for having a kid.. Failure to do these would result in your child being taken away and jail time for the parents. Oh, Gawd I can hear the crying now. What a world this is going to be.

Gun violence by law abiding owners is at very low levels and therefore does not require more legislation to improve the numbers. Accidental shootings can be reduced through education of firearms. Our present firearm safety course doesn’t do enough. How about increase the number of gun clubs and require all firearm owners to be members. How about teaching kids in schools about guns and gangs so they know what they are. Oh the horror, right? How about parents being more responsible to teach their kids instead of letting them learn about gangs and guns on the street. I would expect the higher numbers of shootings in the United States is also due to gangs. Here in Canada every time there is a problem of some kind people say the government should do something about it. Well, they will if you badger them enough. They will raise your taxes, or they will impose laws that take away your rights. Not just with firearms but with anything. People say there are too many boating accidents and the government needs to do something about it. Now you need a license and insurance, safety courses and what ever else they say. No more freedom. Bottom line, the general population needs to be more responsible for their own actions.

The reason of the attack is irrelevant and could have happened for any reason. I'm saying our laws here are twisted and do not serve to protect us. If that woman lived in Canada the police would find her dead on the floor with her gun safely locked away in a gun locker. The baby would grow up without a mother.

Unless you live on another planet, you’ve no doubt heard the story of the 18-year-old Oklahoma woman who killed a home intruder with a shotgun, protecting not only herself but her baby. What a sad end to this story had it happened in Canada.

BRIEFING DOCUMENT 20 VERSION 1 Criminal Code section (CC s.) 95 says: 95 (1) Subject to subsection (3) [does not apply to a legal situation where the person is using the firearm under the direct supervision of another person who is lawfully entitled to do the same thing with the same firearm] and section 98 [obsolete section], every person commits an offence who, in any place, possesses a loaded prohibited firearm or restricted firearm, or an unloaded prohibited firearm or restricted firearm together with readily accessible ammunition, unless the person is the holder of (a) an authorization or licence under which the person may possess the firearm in that place; and (B the registration certificate for the firearm. This section is much misunderstood, and frequently charges are laid, using it, improperly. At first glance, it appears that the person with the firearm requires some sort of special licence "under which the person may possess the firearm in that place," loaded or with readily accessible ammunition. Careful re-reading, however, proves that impression to be false. There is no such licence, and the law does not require any special licence. It requires a regular POL or PAL. Both of those licences authorize the holder to possess firearms of the classes listed on the back of the POL or PAL, and the licence does not specify any particular location. It is not limited to any particular location. The situation is confused by the fact that newer registration certificates do not state the location where the firearm is supposed to be kept. Source http://www.nfa.ca/resource-items/cc-s-95-possession-prohibited-or-restricted-firearm-ammunition I'm no lawyer but that's the way I read it. I think there must be another section of law here I'm missing but I don't see it. I can not see this being the only law but I couldn't find any other info on the subject. This covers it.

I don’t think making these guns prohibited will make any difference anyway. What the police are trying to do is make an otherwise law abiding citizen into a criminal. Just like they did when they introduced the registry. That’s when they backed off the heavy hand approach in an effort to get people to cooperate. I think if the owners of these guns simply do nothing it will all go away for them. It’s pretty easy to side step this mess too. According to the criminal code of Canada you must also have the ammunition for the prohibited weapon in order to be charged with possession. Simply remove the ammo from your home. When the police come to your door make them show a warrant. Charges won’t stick and you will get your gun back.
