Anyone know what the latest homicide rate is in Canada? Try 1.6 victims per 100,000 people. Want to try to hazzard a guess what it is in the US?..Try 4.2 per 100,000! Anyone want to try to guess what the main reason mght be? Could it possibly be that Canada has actively tried to control guns and ammunition for over the last 100 years? It is not illegal to own, hand guns, rifles, etc in Canada. It is extremly regulated though. And, once you are licensed, it has to be re-newed every 5 years. > Now then, does all this work 100% of the time? Of course not, but it is pretty obvious that it helps. > BTW, I am a gun owner/pistol permit holder and I welcome more stringent controls… ![http://bocanewsnow.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/pot.jpg](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex034/uploads/speedlife/original/3X/e/8/e84dcb152693333747ae334c43789f1050f38606.jpeg) and even this guy doesnt shoot to kill, just uses it to get his points across. ![http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQ0EN8E_17LrQuF6rqHirBYiJ_NULXtcbzDdWsLmPRYDIGwzGffVQccLIFK](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex034/uploads/speedlife/original/3X/b/f/bf1c93e5a8a5822f535a3a5d3c7d027422247249.jpeg) --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/27-dead-in-school-shooting/265750)._
