So now you pull out the Bill of Rights and the Constitution card and feel you have a grasp of the complexity of each nation based on your one, singular ideal and then have the gall to tell me that my diatribe is "Pablum" (Canadian by the way) and boring!!? I'm actually amused. What does either have to do with responsibility and accountability when it comes to anything? I think perhaps you've become so focused on your fight for the right to pack a gun you forget this is indeed a democracy. You've surrounded yourself for so long at the extreme end of two opposing sides that you have neglected to realize the majority are in the middle and really don't care one way or the other. I would no more vote on gun control than I would on legalizing marijuana. And you will find that's how most people feel and is why the Bill was allowed!!!
You can ask an individual if (s)he is pro or anti and while they may actually have an opinion one way or the other they are basically apathetic and will ultimately do nothing to promote or oppose it. That is fact. And that is true democracy whether you like it or not. You'll find the vast majority of the general population could give a crap about gun ownership.

The USA is the most litigious nation on the planet. So someone sued a gun manufacturer... well someone also sued Audi because, as a driver, they cannot figure a brake pedal from an accelerator and someone sued McDonalds because, shock of shock, coffee happens to be hot. What point are you trying to prove?

You can tell me all the reasons a square peg will fit in a round hole but you will never convince me any more than you can convince me that god is on my side. A gun owner must be responsible. A gun owner must be held accountable for that gun.
I really don't understand why you are so adamantly opposed to responsible, accountable gun ownership. That's all I keep saying but somehow the Constitution of a foreign nation is the reason I'm wrong and this should never be!
I'm done. I really knew better than to bite but someone had to be the voice of the general population. The apathetic, ignorant masses that we are.
