Ok...you go first, I'll rebuttal

Why, your sorry broke government funded ass couldn't afford it

They really should be called Tory Villages.

A multi racial group of cops. Doesnt really fit the media narrative does it? Why dont we just call it police brutality and murder? I'm confident these bumholes are not picky on what race they abuse.
- boonerbuck

Except the cop that murdered Floyd had numerous complaints about him being racist and a track record before this happened. The other cops that were there were negligent, but not necessarily racist. Narrative ya POC are just at it with their narrative again FML

Have you ever been to one and vacationed or bought one? How much time have you spent in the United States of America in the past ten years?

It's kinda funny, both my neighbors are from different parts of Michigan, they're avid Democrats who hate Trump with a passion, but hey, whatever fits your narrative.

You remind me of the type of guy who's never attained his pilot's license but you flew in a plane and read about flying so you think you know how to fly.

I hope that I get to see the end of personal fire arm ownership in Canada in my lifetime. There is no reason for any citizen to own a gun, of any kind. Canadians (and Americans) do not have a right to own guns. I’d also like to see, as Jason Kenney wants, the government divert significant resources to stopping cross border smuggling. Maybe we can build a wall to keep Americans out...

I haven’t been here in about 7 years, how is this place nowadays?

Well if you love Kool Aid, Alt-Left narratives, believing everything the media and their 'scientists' say I'd say welcome back!!

Responsible ownership of firearms in Canada isn't something to really worry about in my humble opinion, despite the mass murder of 22 innocent people IN CANADA a couple months ago you can't punish everyone because of a single incident.

I'd like to see British Columbia, Alberta and Saskatchewan become part of the United States of America with California, Oregon, Washington State, Idaho and Montana. Form our own country

I drive past them, I have no intention of visiting privileged, white retirees who think the world owes them whatever they desire.
I used to go to Seattle a lot and then America turned into a sh*t heap. My wife & I went back 2 years ago to see a show and all we did is talked about how much it has changed and not for the better.
I also have family that live there. You know, the ones that you said don't struggle because America is the land of opportunity.
The only people who think the US is 'great' are rich white folks.
Time to visit the woodpile and smoke some gov't funded weed.

You do know that Makita bans you alt-right douches for spreading your hate and bile.

The divide between the rich and poor is getting wider and wider, there's a middle class, but barely. Much like Canada, the middle class is becoming extinct, we're no different than they are, just in a smaller version when it comes to have's and have-nots.

You're definitely part of the poor because you never achieved anything in life, my assumption, while I on the other hand worked hard and sacrificed to achieve high goals

This is the point that too many people don’t get, in my opinion...

Removing guns from society doesn’t punish anyone.

Nothing wrong with owning guns.
I would never include Alberta in any form of separation. They are the biggest POS in this country.

I don't see any reason to get rid of them, you'd have to convince me they're not needed. We have a Charter of Rights and Freedoms that protects people's rights to enjoy life, you can't decide for them what is ok and not ok to enjoy.

If people love to hunt then let them hunt, for a hundred years we've been doing this without much issue, I don't understand what the problem is.

Next you'll want to ban knives, hatchets, anything sharp, vehicles because they kill more people annually than almost everything else except medical conditions like heart disease.

No, those other things are tools. A real man would sharpen a stick and kill a deer with his hands if he really wanted to hunt.

There is no such thing as responsible gun ownership.

Sure there is, I've owned guns for 35 years and I've never been in trouble with the law and I've never hurt anyone. I've responsibly purchased, registered and owned guns for personal use for a long time.

When I used to hunt it was really fun, we'd take quad's and trailers up to northern BC or Alberta and hunt for deer and moose, hunters helped the local economies with hotel reservations, food, fuel, purchases, etc.

You can absolutely amend laws if people cant play nice with the ones you have. That’s the purpose of law: everyone has their rights limited in exchange for safety and access to a good life(ideally, no one country actually achieves this). I think it’s objectively more safe to live in BC than in Washington. Not much changes other than easy access to guns.

How many people go hunting with assault riffles and hand guns?

I don't think or feel it's unsafe to live in Canada despite people being allowed to have guns. Have there been instances where guns hurt or killed people, yes, but they're far and few between.

- VANTEL

That's illegal, you can't do that so I doubt very many do. Perhaps way up north where the chances of getting caught are extremely remote.

So there is no real use for handguns and assault riffles.

Hunting riffles are fine get rid of the rest.

Exactly. It’s unsafe to live in Washington, which is a couple hundred kms south. You can have guns here if you get them registered, but it’s by no means easy access like down there.

You can own guns but you can not conceal them and that is the huge issue. Tens of thousands Canadians every hour are breaking the law with concealed weapons.
