You really are naive. Have you ever seen the serious amount of restrictions already on the books that are ignored? Probably not. I know there is a criminal element here that don't do well with following rules and laws? Are there any Canadians that break the law on handguns?

This arguing has gone on long enough. We all got to get better at it. May the best man win.

Naive about what?
We aren't allowed to own handguns. without onerous requirements, like joining a gun club, passing written and practical tests, thorough and arduous background checks, requiring a temporary police issued permit whenever the handgun will be transported from gun club to home, etc. They are restricted weapons.
If you use an illegally attained handgun to commit any crime in Canada, you will get extra incarceration above and beyond a typical sentence.
Very few Canadians own handguns, and fewer use them illegally, as they're just not available. The few that are used in crime have all been smuggled in from the USA.
Try crossing into Canada with an undeclared handgun.
No arguing.
I'm saying that tragedies like the one in this topic are preventable, they are not accidents, and your legislators don't have the balls to tighten up gun control in the US to prevent these horrific incidents. Let any Tom, Dick, or Harry own a handgun in the USA. It's your right. Just make it more inconvenient and difficult for any schmuck to just walk into a sporting goods store or flea market and buy a handgun.
This schmuck has bought 3 pistols and 1 rifle lately and went through background checks. It's not like we don't have schmuck checking. Thanks Bird.
I think this thread is just becoming a "increase my post count" contest.

Bird can't be out-argued. Common sense and facts mean nothing to him. He can go on like this for months. Fortunately he doesn't live in our country. Therefore he is a non-factor. Inconsequential. He doesn't matter.

Good point. Speaking of which, how many posts do you need to not be 'junior' member? Might just stop there, for the off-topic side anyway.I think this thread is just becoming a "increase my post count" contest.
