. am mystified by)the 'tremendous opposition from
farmers to more sensible gun control legislation.
Regular readers of this column are ,aware- I guess
almost to the, point of nausea, of my hatred of, .guns,
I'm osuggesting that guns should be Mere diffiLeilt to get
and gun licences should be strictly policed.
At no time bevel suggested that no one should be
alloWedeto own .a gun - just that it should be more dif-
ficult. I am well aware Of the fact that anyone who wants
to get a ,gun to perform a criminal act such, as robbery,
'well, that person will get,a gun no matter how, difficult it
is.
No, I am talking about the' guns ,that are carelessly
kept, carelessly stored; about careless. people who are
allowed to own one; about those ei-didn't.knowet-was-
loaded" guns.
Readers have been regaled two, .or ehree times in this •
column about the many cases of neglect, even downright.,
criminal negligence, displayed by a 'few stupid gun-toters
in the province, It is not necessary to repeat myself.
Every time I write a column against guns, the lettere
come pouring in calling me everything but a gentleman.
