Gun Control? How About Bullet Control?

I don't know what Canada's gun laws are, but in the US, it wouldn't work. The Supreme Court has ruled that not only are firearms protected under the 2nd amendment, so is the ammunition necessary for them to function properly.

odd how so many of these shit stirring types about gun control is from Canada.....how about worrying about YOUR affairs instead?

Canucks, Aussies and Brits, usually. I honestly don't know why they care so much about the domestic affairs of the United States. I certainly don't care about their internal politics.

I’ve been hearing quite a bit of talk these past few days about “gun control,” both in the United States and Canada following horrific shooting incidents that have left several people dead in both countries. Many people are calling for much more stringent gun control. Which is a step in the right direction, I suppose, but as at least one commentator has noted, more control now wouldn’t do much to rein in the tens of thousands of illegal guns out there, many of which are in Canada. And then there are the tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands, of so-called legal guns . . . Indeed, trying to control the numbers of guns out there would be like trying to control the common cold virus.

BUT, our nations can control one thing, which would in turn make most of the guns out there useless: we can stop the production of ammunition. We can ban bullets. We can ban gun powder.
