I am not waiting twenty minutes for the police to get here, and hope and pray my family is safe. And if you are stupid enough to put yourself in a spot where you risk getting shot, maybe you will think twice. My wife and I have a little old lady friend from outside San Antonio. She shocked the hell out of us when she told us she had a pistol in her night stand. We are talking 4' nothing and 100 pounds. When I asked her whether that was necessary she explained that her ranch was close to the Mexican border and that the B&E's were out of control. Many incidences of violence. SHe said she has handled guns all her life and knows how to use them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aGENT Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 18 hours ago, RUPERTKBD said: I'd be okay with a law that states all such weapons must be stored at licensed shooting ranges and are not allowed off the grounds. I'd be all for allowing people to keep such weapons, were such a law in place. I quite like this solution as well. I wonder if handguns should be considered for this type of treatment as well given their large role in gang issues? 17 hours ago, Ryan Strome said: @Jimmy McGill @RUPERTKBD my biggest issue is in my opinion Canada DOESN'T have a gun problem we have a gang problem. Decriminalize all drugs and legalize prostitution. Would go a long way to reducing their ability to profit/exist. Better border security for those guns would help as well. 16 hours ago, Ryan Strome said: Is there any electronic technology to track that but doesn't have the government tracking me in the process? Straight libertarian overhere but I'm sure you knew that. The electronic tech idea is interesting but I'd be wary of possible issues. Criminals will figure out how to hack and/or defeat it. It's inevitable. So you've now just added a bunch of bothersome expense for...? Hell I could see them figuring out a way to hack them so it looks like 'you're' fingerprint was used at the time of a murder...now we have innocent people getting arrested and having to prove their innocence... I also don't care for the possibility of lawful owners being tracked by government (or anyone else) as you note. Though should a gun be stolen (or 'straw bought'), it sure would be nice to track it's whereabouts... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUPERTKBD Posted December 19, 2019 Share Posted December 19, 2019 We need tech like the aliens had in district 9. The gun won't fire unless it recognizes your DNA. Of course this type of tech will take some time, so in the interim they might have to come up with something simpler for Albertans....maybe some sort of breathalyzer that won't allow firing unless it detects a certain level of chaw, or Colt 45.... 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
