One intriguing proposal worthy of serious discussion is for Ottawa to allow each community across Canada to hold a referendum on becoming gun-free zones, much as they once could declare themselves alcohol-free zones. Big cities, such as Toronto, where gun crime is a major concern, might want to go this route, while rural communities might not.
Firearms in gun-free communities could possibly be stored at secure depots that would double as firing ranges. Collectors could visit their guns there. Handgun owners could practise target and competitive shooting. And hunters could check out rifles and shotguns in season.
What an idiot.
And all our law-abiding subj... er, "citizens" can be left vulnerable to the crooks, who won't pay any attention to those stupid laws. What a wonderful utopia we'll have!

Reading this, I realized that when I last visited the shooting range, there was a large portion of the range that was in fact, gun-free, just as these anointed visionaries envision. That's right, gun-free zones at a rifle range.
ReplyDeleteThe part with the targets.
