I was surprised to know there are more guns  and hunting in canada than in the USA................
however, because of sensible gun laws, better education and a population who is not paranoid and stirred up by the nra – or panicked, there are about 200 deaths involving guns per year – as opposed to 100,000 in the usa,  and the population is about one tenth of the size!
however, the citizenry of the usa believe “the government” is just yearning to disarm them [must be right – they nra told them], so 100,000 deaths/year is the price that has to be paid so the citizens can remain free.....................................!
just pray one of those sacrificed is not your son, daughter, mother,  father, husband, wife or even grand daughter/son – because every person who is killed is one of these!
and don’t forget the national rifle association song :-

        The NRA Song 

        Guns are neat, Guns are sweet 
        Guns the tool, what makes you cool.
        Guns are fine, Guns are mine 
        Guns are things, that Jesus brings! 

        Guns for loonies, Guns for cons 
        Guns for Moonies, Guns for moms! 

        Guns are fun for everyone, buy them up by the ton. 
        Guns for me, Guns for you, Guns for nuts and children too! 
        Guns at home, Guns at work, Guns at play, Guns berserk! 

        Tons and tons of great big Guns,
