Cattle is too stupid to realize that the Tragedy of the Commons does not apply
to gun control.

He is simply attempting to define, or redefine, "gun control" to mean total
control over all guns and their usage, even legitimate usage.

"Gun control" should rightly mean the implementation and enforcement of laws
that strictly control the criminal misuse of guns, not the harassment of law
abiding gun owners who use their firearms legitimately.

Cattle agrees with the federal gun legislation "Program Partners" (whoever they
are) who believe that "the use of firearms is in itself a "questionable
activity" that required strong controls.", as Auditor General Sheila Fraser
stated in her report on the Firearms Registry.

More Guns = Less Crime.  For every life lost in Canada to guns, 40 are saved. 
Criminals fear running into an armed homeowner more than a police officer. In US
States that pass Concealed Carry permit laws, confrontational crime drops by an
average of 24%.

Guns are a net benefit to society.  More guns *enhance* the Commons, they do not
detract from it.

Cattle is an idiot.
