    Re: Who owns guns and you carry?

    Most people here have grown up without guns, that's just the way it is. I live in the Toronto area, and the crime rates are extremely low for the size of the city. It's just not dangerous here.

    Most of the gun violence that occurs here is by gangs, aiming at other gangs. It is EXTREMELY rare here for non-gang members to get caught up within it, but it has happened. However, as I've said, those are rare anomalies.

    I just don't like guns, period. I see no need for hand guns to be in the hands of civilians. That's just it.

    Praying or saying the pledge weren't designed to kill someone. Saying the pledge or praying can't kill someone. Guns were and do.

    We just don't have the problems with gun violence like you guys do (neither does Ireland, Scotland, England, etc), and I think having extremely tight restrictions on guns is the main reason why.
    There's a common denominator here: the less accessible guns are for the average Joe, the less gun violence there is. Period.
    you may find this interesting.
