large capacity magazines have been illegal for some time.

i'll disagree about semi-auto rifles. i'm for full auto's being illegal.

no one needs a pistol other than for their profession but there is no evidence that legal handgun owners are a problem so i don't support any changes. i am biased on this since i do own handguns.

canadian laws are frustrating because they are made by people who don't understand firearms. usually just for political posturing.

i used to be anti-gun when i was younger but have since changed sides so i do understand where that point of view is coming from.


I agree with you on most of what you said, except semi auto, still think there should be rules on that, maybe no outright ban, but stringent rules.

You don’t have social issues like you would at school. Like the,popular kids type of thing. Clicks and groups. Everyone is independent. It’s easier imo to make friends as an adult in the workplace.


It would depend on the job I guess.

Look at all stats throughout the world......the ownership of guns causes more guns deaths. The stricter the guns laws are, the fewer murder/robberies/suicides by guns.

To an extent you might be right (for example, I don’t really think the idea of carrying around guns helps with anything), but the right to own guns (provided you are not a criminal and are capable of handling a gun properly), is a must.

From what I remember correctly, Beter once ruled that as long as a discussion was civilized and in the all topics section, it was fine

i dont know about the rest of the world but in canada gun crime is largely driven by illegal guns. i dont know the exact numbers but i do know a toronto police chief estimated that 85% of gun crime involve illegal guns.

you are right about suicides. the overwhelming majority of gun deaths in canada are suicides (80.%) and more should be done about that but removing guns doesn't make someone less suicidal.

With one less driver in the field, Canada's overall level upgraded staggeringly.

They're still plum last probably cuz Stroll is so meh but still.

A sad, sad day. Something tells me he's either gonna go to GT racing or IndyCar. I would love to see him in IndyCar, since it would bring some very needed publicity.

Albon and De Vries at Williams sounds lit tho
