Great article on one of Canada's long-standing stupid arguments. Anti-gun groups seem to be searching for some utopia where if there are no guns, no one will ever be hurt. It's naive and delusional thinking. Canada's gun problem is its border, and now, 3D printing. It has never been the legal gun owners who should be proud of the hops they have to jump through. he beauty for politicians is it's the "shiny object" they can talk about as a distraction from all the other things they're failing at so it appears that they're doing "something". Same laws are just fine as they are. Canada's gun laws are the perfect example.

I used to be strongly on the other side of the gun issue, but this article and similar ones by Matt have totally won me over. I was wrong.

That's one of the things I love about substacks like The Line. They're proof that good faith arguments and debate really can change people's minds. That's often hard to believe these days but something I'm grateful for this Xmas.
