Well Canada is not like the US, and of course it's all about the people. Firearms per se are just a tool, they don't kill anyone if they're left untouched.

I find it amazing listening to the pro gun arguments. The attitude that gun restrictions are an afront to civil liberties to me sounds like utter madness. It's usually the same people that claim that universal healthcare is an attack on civil liberty! madness!

once again, open a history book, or look for history of gun control in regimes..

Personally I would not want to live in a country where everyone felt the need to own firearms.

it's not about
need, it's about
freedom to own a gun.
