1.      Criminals don’t register firearms, so why does Canada keep maintaining a gun registry? We don’t need a gun registry. What we need is common sense. If you are a cop, you must keep your eyes open, your ears open and assume that if you are going after bad guys, they may have weapons. If cops don’t know this, someone hasn’t trained them properly. If we’re going to start registering guns should we be expected to register our kitchen knives too? Put one of those in a whackjob’s hands and they can be just as deadly as a gun. Last time I was on a plane they wouldn’t let me through security with nailclippers even. Use some of that money that you save from the gun registry to create better schools and training programs for cops.

2.      We are constantly encouraged to eat right, drink less, exercise more, and sleep more.  This is advice to keep our hearts healthy.  According to a study in North America adults do not meet the standards for healthy levels of physical activity, consumption of fruits and vegetables, body fat, and smoking.  The researchers say that everyone has to make the decision to either change their lifestyle or die of heart disease.  I heard that Bob, a trainer from the reality show Biggest Loser just suffered a heart attack.  He survived but what does that say about the healthy lifestyle.  By his own account he ate right, exercised daily, did not smoke, and drank in moderation.  So, it appears that even someone who did everything right could still have a heart attack.  That means that we really don’t have to worry about trying to get healthy as it doesn’t appear to make a difference in who gets sick and who doesn’t.  I say keep eating what you want and doing what you want.  Eating chips and chocolate bars will not lead to certain death nor will drinking that large bottle of pop.  So enjoy life, and stop worrying since worry can also cause heart attacks.
