Well, that about sums it up: The seemingly valiant challenge completely
ignored.

Tell us what those issues are, then, and I will be happy ty address them.
One would assume that the issue is life endangerment, which I already
addressed.

You have chosen to ignore far too much of what was presented. I also wanted
to address the big picture, namely that crime and the causes of crime should
be adequately dealt with, certainly much more and much sooner than a few
firearms accidents.

"Weapons" are neither dangerous nor lethal, except in the hands of criminals
and the irresponsible. Criminals are properly dealt with, before the fact by
correcting the root causes of crime/violence, and after the fact by harsh
consequences. I addressed this.

You, on the contrary, have ignored the very information you asked for. You,
on the contrary, insist that responsible firearms owners are a problem,
which they aren't. You, on the contrary, have clung to C-68, which has had
so much evidence presented against it as to prove its ill worth. You, on the
contrary, have presented no reasonable solutions of your own.
