      Yeah, they are so vague with details we know it’s because they fucked up. If they had some sort of “justification” they would have all the details available to us.

        Agreed, this is why we should be allowed to arm ourselves (among other reasons)

        Nothing is stopping you from being armed and living out your fantasies.

          True, though it’d be nice if it were legally recognised.

          Also, governments are responsible for the most murders in history (excluding actual wars… which are also caused by governments) so wanting to protect yourself from the state isn’t a massive leap in logic or conspiracy’s territory.

            Why would they do that? Isn’t the whole point to keep you unarmed?

            People are responsible. Governments are just groups of people, not some monolith hell bent on global domination and mutual destruction.

            Keep waiting for the “Government” to let you protect yourself against it. I am sure “they” are getting right on that. lol

              I mean, the US does it better than any other western nation, we could at least be on par with them

                No thanks. I would rather not have the 'Merica cosplayers up here in Canada allowed to have an arsenal.

                  Considering that the US has less murders per gun than Canada does, I’m not sure issue is the guns.

                    It is easy to have less murders per gun when there are more guns than people.

                    The NRA called, they want their talking points back.
