Makes sense from the left wing perspective. The first gun control group in the U.S. that I heard of was called handgun control inc. Sarah Brady was the spokesperson. Handguns kill far more people every year than all long gun combined including "military style assault rifles." They are easily concealable (unlike a rifle). Up until the Las Vegas shooting, the biggest mass shooting body count was the Virginia Tech shooter who used two handguns. So why the focus on assault rifles in this country? Because banning them simply polls better.

I don't think that's it, or at least isn't all of it. Banning "assault rifles" and leaving hand guns alone makes sense if you assume they don't give a damn if we shoot each other, and just want to protect themselves from us.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to acptulsa again.
Okay. Good point. I didn't think about it from that perspective.

Justin Trudeau Moves to Ban Purchase and Sale of Handguns in Canada

Justin Trudeau Moves to Ban Purchase and Sale of Handguns in Canada

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has introduced a new bill to parliament that would stop the import, purchase and sale of handguns as well as prevent their transfer across Canada, in his government’s latest move to restrict firearms.
Prime Minister Trudeau announced the new piece of legislation on Monday afternoon at a press conference in Ottawa alongside Public Safety Minister Marco Mendicinom who introduced the new bill to parliament.
“It will no longer be possible to buy, sell, transfer or import handguns anywhere in Canada. In other words, we’re capping the market for handguns,” Prime Minister Trudeau said and added, “As we see gun violence continue to rise, it is our duty to keep taking action,” broadcaster CBC reports.
While Trudeau claimed that the vast majority of Canadian gun owners are responsible, he added, “But other than using firearms for sport shooting and for hunting, there is no reason anyone in Canada should need guns in their everyday lives.”
Trudeau also claimed that previously the government had considered working with provinces that wanted to ban handguns entirely but claimed the proposals were scrapped after talks with law enforcement officials and other experts.
The bill also includes other plans to combat illegal gun smuggling and move to implement a “red flag” law that will allow law enforcement in Canada to force gun owners to relinquish their firearms if they are considered a danger to themselves or others.
All magazines for rifles and other long guns will also be permanently altered so that they are unable to hold more than five rounds at a time and larger capacity magazines will be made illegal to sell or transfer to another party.
The bill is the second major gun restriction introduced by the Trudeau government in recent years and comes after the Trudeau government banned 1,500 different firearms in 2020, including rifles described as “assault rifles” by former Public Safety Minister Bill Blair.
“These weapons were designed for one purpose and one purpose only: to kill the largest number of people in the shortest amount of time,” Trudeau said in 2020 and added, “There is no use and no place for such weapons in Canada.”

Unless, of course, it is to protect you and other bags of shit in the ruling class.
Conservatism Inc. in Canada is weaker and more pusillanimous than here in the states, so I have no doubt this legislation will sail through.
This is what happens when you have no bill of rights.

Interesting. So Trudeau thinks that handguns serve no purpose? Someone dump him deep out in bear country. Or in a bad neighborhood.

Traitor Trudeau To Freeze All Handgun Sales in Canada In Latest Act Of WAR Against Citizens

Health Ranger has it absolutely right, and I think there is about to be a CIVIL WAR in Canada against the Canadian Govt including their rigged election president Trudeau. The only reason they have to take the citizens guns is if they plan on executing citizens en masse.

File Canadian conservatism under "tits on a bull":

Not that American "conservatives" are a whole lot better.
More than any other factor (including the Second Amendment itself), the preservation of gun rights in America has been due primarily to the popular tradition and preexisting fact of widespread gun ownership. far more than any putative "conservative" or juridical dedication to founding principles. (In fact, if anything, the former has preserved and protected the latter, rather than the other way around.)

I heard Canada literally sold out of guns 48 hours after Trudeau gave his speech.
