ORIGINAL: freedomdwarf1 FR~ Just because you can, doesn't mean you should. There's too many nutters/rednecks in the US; the stats prove that time and again. Don't have gun free zones; as has been said already, criminals don't read signs. Make the whole country, coast-to-coast, border-to-border, a gun free zone for all public places. Get caught with a firearm in public - $500 fine, gun & ammo destroyed, license (if they had one) revoked. Second offense, double the fine and 3 months incarceration with no parole. Further infringements, double the penalty. It's a very simple law: no guns in a public place. That way, it doesn't infringe on your rights to own a gun and doesn't stop hunting or pleasure shooting in approved places. We can have guns just like the US. However, our society, bad as it is, have generally decided we are better off without them. The same for Australia and many other civilized countries. So when you say "license revoked", does that mean we all need licenses, the requesit psychological testing and all the rest of it to own a firearm ?
