Not at all. Idiotic because only idiots think disarming law abiding citizens who aren't committing crimes will keep the bad guys from doing wrong.

And allowing "law abiding citizens" to own firearms prevent "bad guys from doing wrong"? Do I have to understand that "more arms = less crime"?

It's actually a fact in many major cities, but likely has more to do with wealth in certain areas and demographics than the concealed or open carried gun.

Yes and no. Yes that is correct but no I don't expect you to understand.

It's amazing us Canadians, and those Brits, and those Australians and New Zealanders haven't all killed each other, what with no guns to protect themselves. Damn Gun Control has made our countries so unsafe!!
Oh well, I guess we will just have to live with all our school shootings and stay inside all night.
And Timco - don't you DARE touch our bagged milk!!

Speak for yourself. This Canadian is armed and skilled. (You can do some real damage with a frozen bag of milk)

I will assume this is just a question of education and cultural difference...
I don't expect you to understand there are other point of views than the US mainstream

"According to 2009 data collected by the UN Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), the U.S. sees 3.3 homicides by firearm for every 100,000 citizens. By comparison, Canada's rate is 0.5 homicides and the U.K. is 0.1. Most European countries sit somewhere in the same range."
Again, I reiterate....I don't believe this is the place for a debate on gun control. Far too emotional for a rational INTERNET debate....
No one is going to change anyone else's opinion on this. Just like I will NEVER EVER move ANYWHERE where they don't have bagged milk.
