Well, I own guns purely for the sport. I don't hunt, I definitely don't carry one around, but I really enjoy shooting for sport. I live in Oregon, where I can drive a few miles and be on a deserted mountain and find a nice, safe, place to shoot.
I support peoples' right to own guns. I think that issues of gun control trickle down to become issues of peoples' morals. If guns were outlawed, only the outlaws would have guns. Gun control only affects the honest, law abiding, citizens. Do you think that if the government all of a sudden banned guns that the criminals would go turn them in? No way.
I do think that adults need to be responsible and lock up their guns, etc. A little responsibility will go a long way in lessening the number of gun accidents.
What kind of gun control does Canada have in place? You say that they are perfectly legal, yet people just don't own them? I wouldn't be suprised at all if more people have one tucked away than you think.
