So….. since the hockey season is stalled right now…..
Time for a rant... GUN CONTROL. ( I do not know all the US rules so don’t hang me…LOL)
When are we, Canada and the USA going to wake up regarding gun control?
We need to change the rules... period. This is what I would do if I had the opportunity. Rifles are needed for hunting or at a gun range. Hand guns/automatic rifles are not needed anywhere but at a gun range.
Rifles - you must take a safety training course and receive a PAL (possession acquisition license) in order to have a rifle in your possession. All rifles must be locked up when not in use, all bullets must be locked up separately, this includes while being transported to your hunting area or gun range. If you are caught with an unsecured, or secured rifle, without a PAL - 1 yr in jail automatic. If it is loaded - add 2 yrs. If you do not have a hunting license for an "in season animal" or have a gun range license on your person - 2 more years. So if somebody has a loaded rifle and has no license or PAL or Range license - 5 years cya, no questions asked. It doesn’t matter whose gun it is if it is your possession.
Hand guns/automatic weapons - You must have a restricted weapons license( lets call it a PRL). if you are caught with a hand gun in your possession without a PRL - 1 yr automatically ( in your car counts), if it is loaded add 2 yrs, if it is on your person and concealed add 2 yrs. If you discharge it anywhere other than at a gun range - 5 yrs automatically. If you discharge it and the bullet hits somebody else - 20 years automatically.
For my American friends and relatives I won’t go easy on youu guys either. If you feel you need to exercise your right to carry a gun so be it. You must take a safety course and carry the 20 inch by 20 inch certificate with you, you must take a restricted firearms course and carry that 20 by 20 inch certificate with you, you just take a course on how to maim without killing when you shoot, you must pass an accuracy test, you must pass a psychology test every 12 months, you must not have a gun that has more than one shot capability, you must carry the gun so that it is visible at all times, wear a holster like the cowboy that you think you still are ( why do you need to conceal it?). If you shoot somebody you need to prove that you were in grave danger if you didn’t shoot them. (ie; you can’t shoot and kill a purse snatcher)
I can go on if you like but if you feel you must exercise that right then we can make it a real pain in the ass to do so. Oh yah... I forgot... each course is $10,000 !!! all the proceeds go the families of gun deaths in the USA and Canada.
I know new rules won’t stop all the crimes but it will make it harder for people to get the most important part of a gun crime.
That is all for tonight….. Just for fun…..Please discuss.
