RCMP’s Gun Control Method

Posted by on April 30, 2009 at 8:07 pm.

I read an interesting article in a newspaper a while back about a simple method of gun-control being used in some towns in Northern Canada.

Rifle

Gun-owner’s protest often decry any attempt to control what they believe to be a right: “To own a gun”. Which for the most part is legal in Canada.

And one of there often quoted reasons is they wish to go hunting, which is also legal in Canada.

But it is when those legal guns are used for things other than legal hunting where things go awry. (i.e. domestic violence regrettably occurs.)

A simple solution: Your guns are stored at the local RCMP detachment. Flash your ID, take your gun hunting, return it when your done.

This also might lower your home insurance, remove a temptation for a young child and reduce a temptation for a thief.

It just struck me as very smart; “It Just Works!”
