Definitely illegal in the US, or at least California. Gas has to be contained in a gas approved container/can, so a gas can lol

I think what you meant to say is that it's supposed to be in an "approved container".

This morning I was pulled over on the highway doing 79 in a 70. Meanwhile I was going along the flow of (light) traffic so found it odd. I already had my paperwork ready before he arrived and gave me the reason for the stop. I agreed I was going nine (9) mph over and he checks out my info, returns the paperwork to me and I was on my way.

While I found it puzzling that he pulled me over and not anyone else, I still respected the officer, didn’t question him, didn’t act like an asshat and look what it got me, a warning.

See, the world does have nice people, even if I’m one of them.

That's odd. Usually it's "9, you're fine. 10, you're mine." Sounds like maybe you caught his eye for another reason but your behavior got you a pass.

Maybe it’s because I have an upside down ///M badge which reads W\\\428i. Think I should remove it?

But isn't this the real issue here? People that "shouldn't" have firearms do and can easily obtain them.

Is that what I said? No, it is not. If you are a responsible gun owner, you shouldn't have any issue. This is another issue. Just a hint of trying to do something about preventing nutbags from so easily obtaining firearms and people go full attack mode. Fact of the matter is a large majority of Americans support universal background checks, well over 90% I believe.

Sure, but the fact remains especially in the US that the guns are out there and the 2A isn't going anywhere.

Blaming firearms is similar albeit different to blaming cars for drunk drivers rather than the drunk who get's behind the wheel.

It's a big complicated problem. For us north of the border the problem is guns smuggled from the US into Canada which ultimately end up in the hands of people who shouldn't have them. The border is huge, and porous so the guns are going to keep coming. So what does our government do, they make it even more difficult for law abiding legal gun owners to purchase/acquire and use firearms, when about 90% are smuggled.

Governments on both sides of the border have no apatite to address the actual problems.

Again, this is not what I was suggesting. I don't really want to jump into this topic because it's such a hot button, but no one is going to eliminate the 2A, period. As I stated a moment ago, a huge majority of Americans (I can't speak for Canadians) would like to see universal background checks and no loopholes. I just think some people start foaming at the mouth whenever they hear anything that sounds like (in their mind) that someone is coming to take your firearms away. I don't believe that's what we're talking about here.

Back to the article I linked, that dude clearly has issues and killed two officers in his backyard for a ridiculous reason. I'm not saying there may have been red flags easily identified with this individual, but who knows?

To clarify my point of view, I'm not blaming the gun here. I'm blaming the owner of said gun.

The gun smuggling from states with more lax gun safety laws is a major problem in NYC, Canada, and also in Mexico.

The people that shouldn't have them will steal them or make them. MORE infringement laws won't change that. You can essentially 3D Copy a gun in your own home these days.

Actually no. People support background checks - which we already have - but not a gun registry. The "universal background check" you're referencing is a universal gun registry. We do not support that. Our guns are already registered. This UBC the left speaks of is a conduit for unfair prosecution and confiscation.
