[quote="Short Hand":a1685]Look, OUR GUN LAWS up until now have worked just fine. SO I see no need to change anything. AND to be honest, Who needs to carry a pistol on them ? You do realize that most Canadians can't conceive such a thing .. I mean if someone had a pistol in theri hand walking downtown Orangeville, or Brampton everyone would brake into a panic and start running or look and stare, its not part of our identity or our culture, so why make them any more readily availible.[/quote:a1685]

Our "gun laws" obviously don't fucking work: today is proof enough... or do you need further bloodshed in conjunction with data from conceal carry states to be convinced that we're on the wrong track?

Who needs to carry? Anyone who chooses to do so and correctly decides to take protection of self in his own hands. I won't trust others to be there when I need them: as such, I prefer putting the odds on my side by having the most efficient deterrent and means of defending myself when all other options have been exhausted.

By the way... CONCEAL CARRY means exactly that: you don't know WHO has WHAT: that's why the goddamn thing is such a powerful deterrent. Honestly, do you ever stop to think for even a moment?
