Awesome! They can SMOKE OUT any prospective killer at the interview!
But the thing is, Warranto, will it be effective? See, I am no criminal but if I was one, I would not go to that interview...lol! I would try to get a gun from a second-hand seller.

ok so how intense or how long is this one on one talk going to be? or how indepth is it going to be? plus do you think a criminal will actually go to this? i mean obviously not. and how good is this person that conducts this interview will be. best i see fit is either a psychaetrist or a senior or retired policemen since they would see peoples character pretty well.
anyways im very skeptical when it comes to this.
also while we are on this warranto have you heard of the "guardian angels" they are planning on implementing here.
basically its going to be well trained (physically trained not law or policies trained) thugs on the streets that have the same authority as police but no education. and these guys are supposedly going to help curb the rising violence in here?!
if anything i can see them being a contribution to it rather then the solution. i mean what we really need is more plicemen not armed thugs with as much education as a bouncer.
i dunno if calgary is going to have those guys but edmonton seems to be going that way...

Calgary took them in openly.
They are already established here and have started training (some groups have already completed theirs, I think)

Honestly, I think that's a fair law. Even if it were implemented here.
|
They better freakin not implement it here, this is the U.S. of A. and it is our RIGHT to own guns!
K but back on topic about the Canadian law, I really don't think it's gonna be too effective on anything. Sure it might screen prospective troublemakers, but most people buy guns for either hunting or self-defense. Most careful criminals have MANY other ways of getting guns that circumvent the law.
It doesn't really matter where you are, as long as there are criminals who want to make trouble, they will find a way to get a gun, even if the law outlaws them 100%. Therefore, it's my view that if you take away guns from the public, you are taking away the public's right to protect themselves.
Now I know this law is merely making it harder to get guns due to face-to-face interview, but I still don't think that's gonna do much.

You're missing the point. They wouldn't take our guns away, they would just require you to be sane to own one. Do YOU want an insane person handling a gun? If you're in favor of the mentally incompetent owning a gun then I'll rebut with a series of Ad Hominem replies 
|
Actually, if everybody was armed, it really wouldn't matter if an insane person had a firearm or not. Though, I do agree with restricting mentally ill people from owning a gun.
However, I don't think that this method would work. Criminals are criminals for a reason... they break the law. If they want a gun, and they've broken the law before with no disregard, what makes you think they're going to be stopped with these silly little interviews?
The only thing it's going to do, as Java said, is make it a lengthier process and probably add cost, making it harder for law-abiding citizens to own a gun.
Face it, gun control laws don't work because all they do is keep weapons out of the hands of law-abiding citizens. Sure, there are a few loose cannons that go on rampages, and they own a gun legally. The only fix to that is to outlaw all guns. However, there's one HUGE, glaring flaw to that... doesn't stop the criminals. In fact, it'd give criminals even more incentive to break the law because the only people who can bring arms up against them would be local law enforcement. There'd be no more danger from law-abiding citizens trying to protect themselves and their property.
whoa.
