And then, with seemingly relative ease, they pick up a gun. A gun that, other than for shooting at random stuff, serves no purpose other than to kill. It's what it was made to do. It wasn't made so you can go shoot at a tree, whether that's what you do with it or not. They are made to kill things, and have been from the very beginning.

I have and do hunt, most of the meat I eat is deer/elk/moose. I don't own guns myself but my dad does. We don't need guns to have that type of meat.

People are dying. Because of a bunch of lunatics and idiots.... with guns.

T&T, you say you have no problem with hunting rifles or shotguns, just handguns and "assault weapons" which, you say, are only made for one thing, killing people.

What are your thoughts on this rifle, the Lee Enfield...

...the most common hunting/sporting rifle in Canada?
They are made for killing things, not people. But people are also things, and get killed by other people with guns.
