Well, it is neat and clean--and colorful!
Debby, lets settle it this way. Everyone here in the States that is worried about all us gun nuts, can move to Canada where it is safe.
I think it was Ben Franklin that stated: Those who would sacrifice their freedom for temporary safety, deserve neither, and will surely loose both.
I didn't put that in quotes cause from memory I am not sure of the exact wording.
The US is not perfect, but lots of people from all over the world are trying everything to get here.

Why do you sound like you are insisting that I am saying take all the guns away? Did I say that? No.
I said that everyone who wants to own a gun should be required to undergo safety training as well as criminal checks and someone should be making sure that lunatics aren't getting hold of guns. I realize that the last is a 'hide-able' problem or that it is subject to change, but at least if mental stability was a requirement at the onset, some people who shouldn't be allowed to arm themselves due to mental issues might, just might not be able to get hold of weapons that can cause death. That wouldn't stop you from having all the guns you want, but your lunatic neighbour (if you had one) who has no criminal record wouldn't be able to waltz in to any gun shop and arm himself to take out his family. Why is that so hard to understand?
The fact that lots of people are trying to get to the USA, only says that where many are coming from is far worse.
Oh is that it! They're all afraid of tests! Aha, now I understand. Well I can remember when I was a child, tests frightened me too.
hee-hee!It had to be a joke, and one that has now been explained. With so many excuses though as to how your guns have gone missing, you must expect flying visit from Mulder and Scully to check out your premises and your very weird story.Those evil gypsies struck here, too -- darn those gypsies! Especially the ones in leaky rowboats.

Some historical info may help.
The "health issues" involved with firearms possession has only become an issue within the last 5 years, as anti gun folks lost the 2nd ammendment issue under SCOTUS see Heller. This gains it's impetus from Obama's anti gun platform and his previous position at the Joyce foundation. Obama has and will continue trying to make gun violence a health issue and place it under CDC control. This is the basis of gun registration complaints by pro gun folks. Current registration information can only be kept for 48 hours. Obama and Holder want a permanent data base of gun owners accessible by everyone from used car dealers to the local newspaper, in exactly the same manner as sex offenders. This is what the antis are not telling you. Can you see why pro gun people get an adrenaline rush? This would require gun owners to re-register all their guns from some 50 years ago, with absolutely no change in crime rates. It ain't gonna happen and the reason why there are so many gypsies running around.

this motive is one of reasons for the large political losses suffered by one of the parties who use this forum as a party platform, and the changes sweeping the US at the state level regarding gun laws and will continue into the next election. Some of these reversals have occurred, some are in the courts, so it is a continuing process.
