My understanding is we already have sensibly restrictive gun laws but a problem with illegal guns coming in from the States.
-
maybe we can apply tariffs until they fix that?|

They will be beautiful tariffs, everyone says so.

Attacking legal gun owners is about as stupid as it gets.
These people paid for the privilege of owning these devices, followed safety courses that are no joke and are restricted to weapons that basically are only of use for hunting.

Ban those guns. We need to stop the violence!

As a gun owner I can say with certainty that the gun laws are already more than enough. Stricter laws would do nothing but punish law abiding citizens. We aren't 'murica. The only guns allowed to the public are simple rifles with 5 round mags at most. Anybody hell bent on causing violence would either use a melee weapon or be breaking the law to obtain/hack an automatic weapon or pistol with increased capacity despite being restricted.
It's a quick and easy way to sound 'tough on crime' for the average person who doesn't know better but in reality the only thing they can do is stop smuggling at the US border and that is a matter of Border Patrol budgeting and staff, not more laws. With the orange doofus demanding stricter border controls this is going to happen regardless of who gets voted in.

Ya, I’m a lefty city dweller who also happens to be a gun owner. If you have gone through what it takes to get your license I believe most people will realize that the rules are fine.
Edit: pre the most recent liberal bans I mean. The total ban on handguns and specific scary black guns is quite ridiculous. I own an SKS and I’m just waiting for it to be banned.
Now I have also been to several ranges where I meet morons and start to question if they should own guns, but I’m not worried about them committing crimes, I’m just worried about accidents.

I see new laws being passed as being able to give law enforcement more tools and resources to intercept ones crossing the border, where they all come from tbh and to allow municipalities to ban handguns if they wish. Fuck America and that shit hole country. I myself understand the frustration with some gun owners as I myself want to get my PAL soon as I just bought my first home with my wife, and with the entire annexation threats going on. Wouldn't hurt for me to get practicing lol.
