i like the way nj polk adds the word beautiful , like some kinda serial killer

We all have it, the "smart" ones the survivors, act on it is the only difference.
If not having the killer instinct in my gene makes me an ignorant then I am proud of it.
REGARDS SNOWWell, I just pulled off the impossible by doing a double-blind comparison all by myself, purely by virtue of the fact that I completely and stupidly forgot what I did last. I guess that getting old does have its advantages after all

I really wonder where ignorance is, look in the mirror :rolleyes:
If not having the killer instinct in my gene makes me an ignorant then I am proud of it. I wouldn't like to have your machiavelic intelligence of how to properly kill the hopefully intruder coming to my house! Some twisted minds out there, let me tell you :eek:
You wouldn't happen to be French-Canadian would you? That would explain the lack of the male instinct to protect what is his as they have successfully breed that out of their society.:p -
Thank god I live in Canada! We got off the COWBOY era many moons ago! Nuff said!
Maybe you guys should separate if you are that much different then!
There is still a lot of "deadly weapon" related violence in Canada. Not as much per capita as the USA necessarily, but it still exists and seems to be a growing problem around here. Although I am an outsider looking in, Winnipeg seems to be having more and more gang problems, and here in Thunder Bay, stabbings are happening a lot more frequently. (thank god this year there hasn't been much involving weapons).
Are we a safer country? Probably. Are we a perfectly safe country? Not a chance. Canada has very similar problems to the USA, usually just on a different scale.
Personally, I believe any idiot that wanders in to strange houses/apartments deserves whatever happens just for being so damn stupid. It's looking more and more like this kid's death was inevitable, it just happened sooner than expected. (Complete assumption!!!)
Just wanted to add this:Gatineau, meanwhile, is compared to cities with between 100,000 and 500,000 residents. In 2007, its crime rate was 5,689 offences per 100,000 people — 12th of 18 cities — while its severity index was 81.8, 11th of 18 cities.
...
Gatineau’s violent crime rate in 2007 was 1,265 offences per 100,000 people, while its severity index of violent crime was 69.6, 10th of 18 cities.

I'm totally serious, and not just trying to insult you. YOu're trying to have a "debate" here, and you expect people to take you seriously, but you write like a fifth grader. In this kind of forum, all people have to go on when they judge you is the way you express yourself. You express yourself like a learning disabled child. It doesn't matter how old you are, you're old enough to be on the Internet then you must have gotten enough education to be able to spell.If you will it, dude, it is no dream. -
oh bobby bobby bobby , stop already , your quoting things i say in response to some1 else and getting all worked up. Go have a ****.. it will make you feel better

Agreed with you, there are areas in Canada where crime is more predominent. Gatineau is sure not perfect either. As I mentioned I made sure the odds where on our side when raising my family. In fact, the agent and I didn't solely considered the type of home and the budget $$$ when selecting the home. The type of family, the type of people we are was also an important factor and definitely played in our favor. In 22 years in the same house, never a single issue either in my home or any other home in the neighboorhood. Luck or figuring out the odds that matched our requirement and values? There are other neighboorhood in Gatineau which I would admit not being as proper. I've had my issues with some people, never ran away from any of them but it never resulted in any killing. However, you should agree the weapon ruling in Canada isn't as free for all as it would be elswhere and I am convinced it does have a tremendous effect. As a former military, I had the chance to travel the country and yet never found any big issues but I also admit knowing where your place is and keeping it can go a long way.Maybe you guys should separate if you are that much different then!

What is the story about separation? I am speaking as a French Canadian, never ever I ever spoke as a Quebec separatist, I never did and never will associate with such!
I love the US too and do have friends thwere too... still, while both countries have many similarities there are also some differences and view on guns is definitively one of them. Who is right or wrong is totally irrelevant but it doesn't stop one from thinking about the difference and ask himself some serious questions about the potential end result of such difference.i love canada but this is funny as theres us and canadian opinions clashing, Whats the diffrence between a canadian and a piece of toast ........... you can make soldiers outa toast
Got too be really out of arguments to say such silly thingsYou wouldn't happen to be French-Canadian would you? That would explain the lack of the male instinct to protect what is his as they have successfully breed that out of their society.
French? Canadian? Who cares, big deal! The fact is simple, I never needed a weapon to back me up or to protect my family. Maybe being 6' 2" has helped a bit and luckily no one has been scrared of me to the point of even thinking of shooting me :cool:DARE TO SOAR:

I really don't know what this has to do with the subject at hand... unless you simply are trying to derail the thread?

listen to what hearing imp has said because its the truth. My grammar aint gona improve overnight. But you still know what i'm saying , when people annoy me it makes me sway from what the opinions are and bite. I cant help getting annoyed by people like bob being a smartass by correcting me in an insulting snotty manner .I dont give a rats **** how many posts some1 has or how much respect the have for audio, i only care for people who have respect for other people.The reason i opend this thread up is for respect for the human life, my opinion is that the guy who shot the boy doesnt have enough respect for human life .I also think god know what happend and this man will surely burn in hell

I realize that and I feel it doesn't have anything to do with the discussion. If Slow's English grammar is that bad, I simply want to make a point that maybe being an un-educated French speaking I am not even worthy of chiming in... Got to be too low of an intelligence for Bobman, rightHe was referring to Slow with that comment.

You are right. Our weapons laws are more stringent than many other places, and it is quite a shame. Also, yes, our current firearms control has had a tremendous effect, but only one. It has wasted LOTS of money.
The gun registry has cost taxpayers many many millions of dollars and it hasn't done JACK, other than waste money through beaurocracy. In fact, the only statistic that was actually dug up and used as "proof" that the registry works, is that suicides by gun went down after the registry was implemented. Guess what? For the same time frame specified, suicides by hanging went up almost the exact same amount.
I can't understand how people can possibly let themselves be convinced that gun control is worthwhile. -
Bob wasnt being a smartass he was being helpful, you chose to take it as being a smartass comment. Others here on this forum in other threads have also commented on your obvious use of slang terms and childlike writing. It is obvious to everyone here you can at will type a sentence that everyone can understand you simply choose not too is all. And yes most of us can decipher what you write but why should we have too suffer through it?listen to what hearing imp has said because its the truth. My grammar aint gona improve overnight. But you still know what i'm saying , when people annoy me it makes me sway from what the opinions are and bite.

Just like your name says, "slow" down when writing take the extra time to type out full words instead of things like b4 ic 2day etc and people will respect you for it. Everyone makes mistakes with spelling and thats ok but not 20 mistakes in a single post.

No your oppinion is as valuable as anyone elses here even though I dont aggree with itI realize that and I feel it doesn't have anything to do with the discussion. If Slow's English grammar is that bad, I simply want to make a point that maybe being an un-educated French speaking I am not even worthy of chiming in... Got to be too low of an intelligence for Bobman, right and you have a valid reason for not speaking or writing perfect english and it is certainly far better than what Slow usally does. I would suck at typing on a french speaking forum.
