An armed society is a polite society. God Bless Texas!

I had the pleasure of living in Texas for about six months. I love people in the South--so friendly and polite--though they do have their East/West barbecue dispute, LOL! (my boyfriend was from North Carolina).

In any case, this article is certainly timely, given the City of Ottawa's voluntary "illegal gun" handover, set to begin next week, I believe.

I was just shaking my head. Tell me what criminal is going to "hand over their guns, no questions asked."

Ottawa is saying, "if it saves even one life, isn't it worth it?"

Well, I would like to throw that argument back at them. Take a good look at the actual research on what happens when the government takes guns away from law-abiding citizens and then answer that question.

I know what you mean.
The Texans are a very welcoming people.

This idea is completely asinine, and will solve nothing!

It's no more than posturing for provincial funding, and the beginning of Bob Charelli's mayoral campaign. Just another Liberal.

Vince Bevan, our Chief of Police? A joke.

It's not "no questions asked".

The citizen is supposed to call the police department.
They will send a cruiser to your home to pick up your unregistered gun.
They will test the gun.
