Robbery Statistics Since Gun Registry
That green vertical line is where the gun registry began: notice the significant drop in robberies with firearms since then.
Thanks for the heads up, BigCityLib. Although, I would say that there are robberies that are committed with long guns. As commenter Double Nickel points out, sawed off shot guns come to mind.
I dunno, but the more I hear folks whining about registering their firearms and yes, even whining about proposed compromises by Iggy: the more this confirms to me that we not only need the registry but we need tougher gun control laws.
I hope Jack Layton whips the NDP, but due to his acts of late which seem to be designed to be contrary to the Liberals, even helping Brother Steve, I’m not betting on it.
