Nobody is confused? Please explain to me what the requirements are to carry a handgun on your person, in New York, Pennsylvania, Montana, Texas, Kansas and California. Let's say that you are from New Jersey. Do this without looking up the various criminal codes, and properly interpreting them. You can't? That is what we call confusion. A f**k lawyer can't even figure this out without extensive research, let alone an average person. Whereas in Canada, I know I cannot carry a handgun in any province without having a restricted firearms license, while belonging to a gun club, carrying it in a lockbox, with a trigger guard and the ammunition removed. That is uniform everywhere. Much easier.

As for federalism, I find it ironic that you would accuse somebody of not understanding it, and then proceed to say something as profoundly f**k stupid as "If you delegate all powers to the same federal entity, on every issue, it's not a federal system anymore." Was that suggested... anywhere? No, it wasn't. Policing, healthcare, education, roads, contracts, etc. can all be dedicated to a state or provincial level, while criminal code is federal. This would still constitute a federalist system. Do I need to give you a primer on what constitutes federalism? Because Canada is a federalist system with a uniform criminal code.

As for the NCCUSL, I referenced that specifically because it has developed hundreds of harmonization codes. Why has it done this Saz? Why go through all this hassle? Why is it so important that the commercial code is uniform, and what about the criminal code separates it from the commercial code, enough that one can be innovative and remain relevant while being uniform, but the other can't?

Christ Almighty you are annoying. Are you ever going to actually engage with this debate? Or did you just need a place to scream "MURICA" over and over again?
