I think handgun restrictions in Canada started in the early 30s, around the time of the Lindberg kidnapping. Coincidence that this weekend our media was filled with federal and provincial concerns of "black market" handguns crossing the border from the US. (I think nearly 800 stopped since beginning of the year.) It's not an academic exercise to understand that persons wanting to kill another will use an instrument of choice, often firearms including pistols. We've lots of them.
Uh oh, the philosophical rope-a-dope.
In a changing world, concerned with safety for all, can you philosophize about the yin and yang of rising Canadian handgun murder rates and the inability to possess or use a hangun without a target shooting only license? Or to rephrase that, would you be willing to share a factual list of the next three or four gun control increments that are on the agenda?
"black market", I find that insensitive, check that offensive. Are we profiling Canadians of colour, yin, while ignoring the culture of the urban gang, yang? Or, does that exude too much toxic masculinity? Huh, no forestry community organizer day for the trees ravaged to make rolls of impeachment tissue?
