From a Canadian who has only once ever even seen a hand gun. (Smuggled up from the US). Hand guns are banned here.

We hear all the time "guns don't kill people, people do"
While that's true logically on the surface its also true that more hand guns in circulation, means more accidental shootings, and crimes of passion where a gun is handy. The argument for stiffer gun control laws is not to take away personal protection,it is to increase it. By banning all hand guns legally, it makes it much harder for even the "bad guys" to get their hands on one.

I live in Vancouver Canada. Seattle is about 200 miles south. It is roughly the same size in population. One has 10 times the gun related death toll. Can you guess which city?

And no, its not because we're so gawddamn polite.
