Gun Control in Mitchieville

I do not trust anyone that cannot be trusted with a gun.

Who are these people? I will admit that guns are dangerous. And, as a Canadian, an adult, who grew up here, that if you cannot trust someone with something dangerous, then they are not adults. They exist at some value of childishness.

Who are these people? The culture I was brought up in, taught me to respect dangerous objects and situations. To be an adult, one was expected to be adult-like around such things as bandsaws, punch presses, moving belts, and firearms. Anyone who was not trusted, was not an adult.

Somewhere between 1975 and now, the culture I was promised, was changed. Everyone I know can be trusted around firearms. Everyone I know knows how to lock up ammunition, how to clean a barrel, how to aim for a clean kill, and how to avoid shooting people. Many of the people I know, and infact the ring of people that they know as well, are responsible with the many weapons that many of them have. In the culture I was promised, firearms were part of the benefits of being a Canadian. Canadians like to go hunting in the woods.

So, why is my fun being taken away? Canadian culture include firearms ownership and use. If a area cannot exist without gun ownership, it is not Canada. Canadians own guns. Canadians use guns. Canadians like guns.

Immature adults cannot have guns. Immature adults should be in a suitable state institution: in school, in prison, or both. A person you cannot trust with a hand gun has no more rights to breathe free air than does Paul Bernardo. They are not Canadian.
