[QUOTE="klein, post: 801324, member: 23950"] Oh great, like that makes sense. An 18 yr old is responsible enough to go out and legally own and in some states, carry a gun in public. But, is held not old and responsible enough to buy him/herself a bottle of beer ! Here are some facts, why we Canadians prefer strict gun laws: *New York City has more murders in a week than the entire nation of Canada does all year. * We have[B] no[/B] right to keep and bear arms. So leave your guns home if you're visiting, otherwise they'll be confiscated at the border. We have very strict gun laws, and fully automatic weapons are pretty much illegal. It almost takes an Act of God to get a licence to own a pistol. (This may be a contributing factor as to why we only have about 600 homicides a year, nation-wide.) Oh, and 1 more thing, if you ever do visit Canada, and go to a bank here to exchange money - you won't see armed security guards in the branch. Actually, no security guards at all at any bank. (We don't need them). [/QUOTE]
