My guns
Were bought at top dollar (We don't have 5000 gun shows a year to get a better deal) and I waited 45 days for clearance, actually it was a bit longer than 45 days but around that anyway.
SO WHAT??????
When I bought the guns and went to register them, I did not expect to go for a coffee and come back to pick them up. I bought them in the winter for summer camping, a bit of range shooting, protection when I lived in Port Hardy and went into the mountains for days/weeks on end.
It wasn't a spur of the moment decision, it was a planned purchase and I expected to be FULLY screened and properly checked, as I would HOPE all others were too. I EXPECT it to take time! For a nation so deeply in LOVE with their guns and emotionally attached to the rights to own them, I just can't fathom how a proper security and background check, with a little down time in between would raise ANY concerns.
In fact as Americans always claim to be so responsible with ownership, why are they so IRRESPONSIBLE when it comes to ownership too?
It's clearly stubbornness and ignorance.
Just like the people in line in front of me when I was at Target in Cali last month, they were arguing for ages with cashier, store manager and eventually security that, because something was buy one get one free, that they were "entitled" to ONE at half price. They said "it's the exact same thing!" erm, no it isn't if you understand stock rotation. The latter does not benefit the store at all, which is the entire purpose to the offer.
The case is, I want it and I am American so that means I can HAVE it and, if you won't GIVE it to me, I will TAKE IT and there's nothing you can do about it because I am entitled to it.
STUBBORNNESS AND IGNORANCE, all in one.
