    The Great Gun Control Debate

    Does anyone here think we should be more like the Americans? That we should be able to have military grade hardware and have access to things such as silencers for our firearms? An American friend of mine who lives here now in Canada feels that private citizens should be able to purchase any...

    A-10 Warthog to be retired by USAF (maybe)
