Canadian News Anchor Issues Ominous Warning to America: Gun Registration Will Lead to ‘Confiscation’
Living in Canada, Sun News Network anchor Brian Lilley has already seen where seemingly innocent gun control measures can lead. During a news broadcast this week, Lilley warned Americans that gun registration led to gun confiscation in Canada, and the same thing will happen in the U.S. if citizens don’t defend their Second Amendment rights.
Lilley also told the story of Ian Thompson, who was charged for defending himself with a firearm against four men firebombing his home in Canada.
“We are at a state in Canada where they don’t want you using firearms for anything. Ever,” Lilley said. “That’s the push. And as we look at what’s happening in the United States, that’s what’s happening.”...

Who protects society from the military in all its forms? Name something that has killed more human beings throughout history than the state. Death by the state far, far, far exceeds death by "mass murderers".

Oh. So you find justification for the Roman dictatorship, for God wills and directs all things? Except when the people decide to throw off dictatorship and institute new government. Only the dictatorship has the right to bear arms. After all, it is there to give you praise for doing good, isn't it?

The Roman military at the time wasn't in the mideast to protect their citizens from a fallen world, but to subjugate people who weren't their citizens, thus giving fine example af fallenness in action. You should consider using your free will to stop blaming God for criminal Roman activity.

Society requires protection from and in a fallen world so God allows the military in all its forms.
What God does not provide for in Scripture is the potential to arm everybody in the nation to administer assault rifle "justice" to criminals, as many posters have advocated.
The potential held in the so called "Right to bear arms" and the potential provided in the myriad American arsenal shopping facilities is America's deadliest societal philosophy. This is constantly proven in mass murders and the daily shooting of people all over the USA.
According to there is hope, we live in a country that is armed to hilt with guns owned by vigilantes. The Scriptures remind us to provide for our own (including their safety), seems like he has the biggest argument here to go out and buy a gun. But let us put the shoe on the other foot. He has sanctimoniously requested Bible verse support for owning a firearm. What Bible verse do you have saying that you are violating a command of God by owning one?

Bro Lurker, I admire your patience with the this one.

Try as I might I can't find Jesus or Paul or anybody teaching, that as Christians we are to implore and impel our neighbours and children to arm themselves to the teeth to convey justice in the community. Which verse do you find "assault rifle" in?
Again with the "justice" thing? Who is saying justice is every citizen's job? That charge of vigilantism just won't stop, will it?
In which verse do you find a reference to one's "community"?

Talking about monikers! Is "Lurker" demonstrative of what you specifically are trying to convey in all your posts?

ps Ever read "43 Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy. 44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you; Matt 5. = You see nothing about assault rifle as justice?

Yes, but the main article was about the defensive shooter's guilt, not the fact that he stopped the shooting. That part if the story was NOT broadcast as far and as wide as the fact that there was a shooter killing people. It came out days later on a side story. Let's be fair.
While we're being fair, are you going to criticize the rhetoric on the other side? The right to bear arms caused the murders? People like me want to circumvent the law? We're full of murderous cravings?
The history of this world is full of examples of mass murder commited by those with firearms and the majority of people killed by mass murderers with firearms are victims of their own government. Every genocide that has been carried out by governments was preceeded by gun confiscation. Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, Idi Amin, etc. all agree that gun control works. And let's not forget the Armenians slaughtered by the Turkish government. And, by the way, if guns aren't available the murderers will use whatever is handy. Remember Rwanda? Oh, and I almost left out Winnie Mandela's use of necklacing (flaming tires around the necks) on other blacks who would not support the murderous ANC. And there's the ongoing murders of white farmers in South Africa and other African nations by machette or ax or whatever the government-sanctioned gangs can find to use on their unarmed victims.

there is hope wrote: As for personal protection from all these gun-toting criminals, well I've been all over the world, even to the USA, and never held or used a gun. Amazin eh?
I'm glad you didn't get hurt, but there are plenty of other people who are glad that someone was carrying. For instance, the people in the mall in Oregon are glad that the shooter was stopped by another armed patron. Didn't hear about that on the news, did you? Likewise with the Trolley Square shooting in 2007 that was stopped by an armed patron.
Since your experience was good, I guess we don't need police, huh? I mean, if you were not the victim of a crime, nobody ever will be. I'm assuming you weren't hospitalized when you visited either, so we can get rid of hospitals. Better yet, would you please list the services you used so we know what the only services are that we should retain? Do you have any active insurance policies?
Lurker wrote: And what of your moniker.... "there is hope"? The only sure hope is "Christ in you, the hope of glory" yet not so much as a hint of a Christian perspective from you regarding the right to bear arms in this country. I think you've been trolling.
Ah, the "Christian perspective" of ugly totalitarian thought control which cannot abide disagreement on secondary issues. Anyone who disagrees with your "Christian perspective" is to have their own Christian faith challenged.
there is hope wrote: Thankyou for your honesty Lurker. But I don't expect to change America's Constitution, nor do I think America will, it's only a debate for me. I have actually never owned a gun of any description in my life, nor saw the need for it. We do not have gun stores here except for shotguns for those who need them such as farmers, gamekeepers etc. As for personal protection from all these gun-toting criminals, well I've been all over the world, even to the USA, and never held or used a gun. Amazin eh?
Just a debate?
If your intent was to sharpen your sabre rattling skills I would think you would at least be honest. Otherwise any victory you may win by manipulating and misrepresenting the comments of others is empty.
And what of your moniker.... "there is hope"? The only sure hope is "Christ in you, the hope of glory" yet not so much as a hint of a Christian perspective from you regarding the right to bear arms in this country.
