If the registry were gone, the gun crimes are definitely rise sharply. I hope our Canadian citizen are not so stupid to believe the PM. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 99.231.119.123 (talk • contribs)

oppose gun control

THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE OLD F.A.C. PROGRAM,A CHEAP WAY OF RGISTERING FIRE ARMS, BUT ONLY IN CANADA--EH-- DO WE LET THE IVORY TOWER MEMBER OF PARLIMENT WASTE THE AWFUL AMOUNT OF MONEY ON SENSELESS GUN CONTROL.THE MEDICAL SYSTEM WOULD LOVE TO HAVE THAT AMOUNT OF MONEY. POLITICAL PARTIES HAVE BECOME USELESS ON ANY TOPIC,KIDS GET SPANKINGS FOR BEHAVING THE WAY THEY DO, WHILE SITTING IN THE HOUSE.THE LAWS ARE ALREADY IN PLACE FOR GUN CRIMES, USE THEM . I WOULD GUESS ITS ALL BEEN SAID BEFORE. HOWEVER I REALLY GET UPSET WHEN WE SEND PEOPLE TO OTHER COUNTRIES TO --PEACEKEEP--ARMED,AND THEY ARE STILL ARGUING ABOUT GUN CONTROL IN CANADA.REALLY A BOGUS SITUATION DONT YOU THINK? B H. IN BC true freedom comes from checks and balances

if the government is on only one with guns, they have ultimate power

if honest citizens have guns criminals and government have more to risk when they try to take our property

PLUS.

who's going to invade a country who's citizens are armed? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.87.73.216 (talk) 20:54, 22 March 2009 (UTC)

America for example, Syria, Israel, Palestine, the Russians.. anyone really. The real question is: who would want to invade Canada? Also, guns are bad, they proliferate violence, they don't prevent it. That's just rubbish. You're much more likely to injure somebody you love with your gun than you are an assailant.211.30.122.32 04:26, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

You are only going to hurt someone with a firearm if you do something stupid with it which is why we all pratice responsibility like to do not point at anyone or the assume every gun is loaded rule. Guns can prevent violence when used by the right people and used correctly. Would you rather live in a country that has an army and a civilian milita that has been trained to contribute to public safety or would you rather live in a country where nobody but the criminals have guns and you are defenseless?—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 67.158.74.233 (talk • contribs)

hypocrisy

a registry which is taking away people's freedoms, has failed to protect us and is costing us billions?

sounds a lot like the war on drugs. i wonder if the conservatives are ready to apply this same logic to end cannabis prohibition. probably not. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.80.57.57 (talk) 05:20, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
