Being a single issue voter is just being willfully ignorant and short sighted.
When your house is on fire, do you save your family, or your guns? You don't get both. A lot more pressing issues than firearms in our country. But then again, a lot of folks in this community/hobby use words they don't understand, such as dictatorship or communism.
I think the way you think is the problem.
Firstly, if there is a fire and I have to save family or any other material thing, the choice is always family because other material things can always be replaced.
Secondly, the issue isn't about saving lives vs legal firearm owners. There have been lot of shootings in the news lately, however none of those were committed by legal firearm owners or with legally acquired firearms. Do you really think that preventing the legal ownership of firearms is going to stop the drug wars and the violence associated with that industry? Will banning the legal use of morphine during/after surgery stop fentanyl overdoses? By your logic, you have a choice to mitigate pain for surgery or save your family. You don't get both. That logic doesn't make any sense.
This decision by the Trudeau has always been based on how they can get the votes to stay in power. Since his caucus has no clue on how to deal with the drug wars, he is manipulating the media (who is manipulating the masses) into thinking that prohibiting legal firearm ownership is going to stop the drive by shootings.
Recently there were shootings in Toronto where innocent children were hurt. It was a horrible incident. If firearms were banned (which is what the Liberals are after) would this shooting have happened? If banning legal firearms would prevent this from happening, I would totally be on board. Unfortunately, I don't believe that to be the case. To prevent incidents like this from happening, the government needs to address the problem from the root. They need to manage the gang wars but instead they choose to punish/restrict law abiding citizens just so he can announce he did something to solve the issue. Unfortunately, what he is doing will do nothing to prevent future drive by shootings.
