More specifically, since at 15 he can't legally possess a semi-auto handgun, that means HE STOLE IT FROM HIS PARENTS. Which is also illegal..

To quote from this article -
When middle-aged "open-carry" activists walk into Kroger with semi-automatic rifles slung over their shoulders, they aren't exercising their rights with an ethic of responsibility. They're trying to intimidate their way to respect and esteem. They're acting out, demanding attention and rejecting curbs on their desires. That's not being a citizen. It's being a toddler.

I was commenting on the grotesque abuse of statistics and a hideous graph. I did not make a point about the issue one way or another.
With respect to my comment about the Federalist Papers, again, that's something that transcends the firearm issue, and was merely meant to point out from where the Founding Fathers felt that liberty arose. Read them, or don't read them. The point within them is clear, and beyond the scope of this forum.

It would be good to understand which of the statistics you take issue with rather than dismiss them out of hand with no explanation why.

You offered up what appeared to be expert opinion of Canadian law so as a US cop, I thought you would be able to also answer on what might happen under US law. Guess I was wrong.

Still hoping that a Canadian will chime in on their gun laws
up till the mid 1960s....
According to my relatives up in PEI, New Brunswick, and
Nova Scotia, the regulations were quite close to those in the USA.
They also said that during that time and previous their was a wide variation amongst the provinces concerning gun laws especially in Quebec, and Ontario. True?

This in itself proves that the media is doing a good job convincing Americans that terrorists are taking over which in turn convinces regular people to be scared.
It's like that beheading nonsense and that girl Alex Israel who turned out to be a fraud. CNN is hilarious.

No. You have shown that you think logically and with responsibility. Thus you are on the conspiracy and wackos ignore list.

You have to ask whether it's the media's fault or the average American's fault that they are misinformed:
