Can I get dual use out of that and kill slugs on my cabbages with those slugs while I wait for the Chinese to invade? I really am very scared....of slugs...on my cabbages.
 
consequently, Im now ordering swords and bats

For you beta-males and weenie liberals: tell me which bats and swords scare you most and I'll buy those and post pics
 
Swords are no good..if we get invaded by the Japanese then they've had more practice....and bats have rabies.

What's the best weapon to kill bats with? I'm scared of bats now.

Fear is a perfectly understandable reaction to such tragic news... its what drives the liberal weenie calls for bans.


I suggest you get over your fear of bats, guns, knives, swords, the dark, black birds, rain, clouds, and downhill roads by............. jumping off a bridge


I'll give your family $20 if I can strap my go-pro to your head. $50 if you plunge to your death WITHOUT screaming. all rights to the content belong to me

..but I'm no longer scared as I'm armed to the teeth waiting in my self contained bunker for the tyrannical hoardes to arrive. Hey, one question..how will I recognise the tyrannical hoardes when they arrive....can you send me some pointers as you seem to have been preparing for this for a while.

Thank the lordy that this thread came along so I could swap my oh so safe life for one of vigilance and preparedness.

Now please excuse me as I need to wrap my house in tinfoil.......the weather forecast said severe windchill but I know that's CIA code for "the aliens are coming".

You're arguing for general security at the expense of some personal freedom. I'm arguing for everyone being responsible for themselves. Buy a gun if you want one, buy a dog and an alarm system if you're scared of guns.. or don't buy anything because our society is plenty safe as it is. You're an adult you can make your own decision and extend me the same courtesy. What's wrong with that?

What's wrong is it doesn't work that way. Individual freedoms can impede on society's health, it's not a straightforward matter of more freedom=better society as libertarians would have you believe. If you accept that some restrictions on weapons are necessary, then the question should actually be; where do we draw the line? I have no problem with Canadian gun laws, but the US is sick. If that isn't clear to you already, just look at the pretty pictures I posted earlier on homicide rates. The same trends apply to incarceration rates, drug abuse rates, overall crimes, legal battles, military action...

A nation's laws are declarations of its values, and lax gun laws are a reflection of the value of every man for himself. Of course that's no way to build a society, and not surprisingly, American society is ill. I still don't expect you to understand though.

Fear is wanting to ban firearms, don't kid yourself. You're afraid.

No other explanation for grown men being so vehemently against firearms. I use the term 'men' loosely in this case.

If the syrian people had guns, would they be caught in the middle of a tyrannical government and the rebels alluding to be a better alternative. Guns in the hands of the people are a nation preserver. Canada is a prideless nation with zero virtues. When you have teachers and police earning 90 thousand a year while the public sector is lucky to make half that, goes to show the kind of nation, Canada is really about. Canada's lack of democracy has created a pathway for Canada's wealth to be channeled to special interest groups. If it were not for the US, canada would likely be a country in china's image.

The make-up and legal workings of the United States of America is fundamentally different to ours. They can't have the same kind of federal regulation over firearms because states have their own constitutions and legal systems (and governments). In addition to this, a number of states have far STRICTER firearms rules than Canada. There are many guns we can own here that they only wish they could purchase down there. So this stuff about US gun laws being "sick" is nonsense... it varies (vastly) from state to state.

If there's a clearly defined problem in the US, its the sharing of information (between states) regarding criminal and mental background checks. The system in Canada is centralized (easily accomplished considering we're only 35M people) and equally accessible to all levels of police (federal, provincial, municipal). Again, no such systems are available in the US.. and the ones which ARE implemented, are proven to be highly inaccurate. A number of those recently talked about executive orders (by Obama) deal with exactly this issue, and are a step in the right direction.

And regarding your comment about American society being ill, that's another misinformed generalization. Bundling the average Joe from Seattle or NYC with the average Bob from Idaho or Nebraska or Alabama is exactly why their federal politics are so heated... too many different kinds of people (with different needs and wants) have to live under the same umbrella.

As for Canadian gun laws, Im largely okay with it. I think we could use a loosening on mag restrictions and should do away with the notion of required ATTs to transport some firearms but not others. If you passed the tests and satisfied the RCMP background checks, and got your PAL, then the rest is completely unnecessary and redundant... not to mention not having anything at all to do with public safety. We're on the right track with the elimination of the LGR.. hopefully a few more rules can be tweaked in the future.
