Recurring Canadaguns Politics and Debate Thread

Please post all your Gun Politics or Ban-related ideas, questions, initiatives, comments, suggestions, news articles, and recommendations in this thread. This thread recurs every 14 days.

First and foremost, this is a Canadian Gun subreddit, so keep it at least decently related to both of those things.

This thread is not for general politics, there are plenty other subs that are meant for that. Off-topic threads may be removed, especially if they are leading to personal attacks, flame wars, etc.

To prevent the main sub being flooded with dozens of similar threads, text posts complaining about/asking about/chatting about gun politics will be sent here.

We understand that politics is a touchy subject, and at times things can get heated. A reminder of the subreddit rules, when commenting, where subreddit users are expected to abide.

Keep this Canadian gun politics related and polite. Off-topic stuff, flame wars, negative generalizations against groups, personal attacks and gate-keeping will be removed. Please flag any comments to bring to the attention of mods otherwise exercise your upvoting and downvoting ability.

I saw a post on here about a bunch of international students doing some dumb shit with guns, Listen your either anti gun or pro gun, and a lot of people in this sub sound like their pro gun for their race but anti gun for other races, the right to bear arms is a "god given right to all man kind" you don't fight stupid gun laws by cussing out people in your own hobby. don't use the excuse that the optics are bad, you owning a shotgun in Toronto is bad optics no matter what licence you have, we got to stick together and teach each other and fight to remove these fubar gun laws like why the fuck can't u use a firearm in your vehicle?maybe question that because a lot of you sound like poly in that post

It depends on the context. Some gun laws exist for a actual decentish reason. A lot don't. I am fine if someone is using there firearm in a car. That’s a stupid law to ban someone from using a firearm in a car. It’s illegal so I would recommend people don’t for the sake of not wanting to get a criminal record but like I do think the law is in fact stupid. What I am more concerned about is when people discharge a firearm where it's illegal to discharge said firearm and if it's unsafe to do so. That's generally the things that concern me.
