I don't think anyone is saying no gun control...at least I am not saying that. I am saying that banning firearms will do nothing at all and I think that responsible people should have the right to own firearms.

Some people in CP world think that it is legal to own automatic assault rifles and any kind of hand gun. Canadian gun laws are strict. If you want to take your handgun to the firing range....you have to get permission from the firearms officer to transport it there and back.

Most Canadian police agencies do not allow their members to carry their firearms while off duty. Most US agencies do. I think they should be allowed to carry them when they are off duty if they so choose....but....we can't even trust a police officer when he is off duty.
