the gun registry in canada has made criminals of a lot of old farmers who have never broken the law in their lifetime. the gun lobby in the u.s. will do the same.
for rural people, guns are tools, not weapons.

i had to kill a 61/2 foot black bear on my porch last fall. i had tried to scare him away the day before. i shot him through my kitchen window before he came in through it. my rifle was a tool that saved a lot of damage and maybe loss of life.
apparently the vast majority of guns that have been legally registered in canada belong to the military and police, yet canada has more guns per capita than the united states.

either there are a lot of people that just destroyed their guns, or there are millions of criminals in canada, created by the gun registry.

the gun registry in the states will be no more effective. canada has 33 million folks (more or less), while the u.s. has 300 million plus. canada has wasted billions of taxpayers dollars on our registry. how much do you think that the gun lobby in the u.s.will write off?
(that's a rhetorical question. the americans will waste hundreds of millions to no avail.)

so, whose money is being wasted??? yours and mine, comrades!!
