Shooting Happy Birthday America!

Felt today would be a fitting day to take out my 1976 Ruger Blackhawk.

Just ask any of these America hating Canadians to go buy an AR or a handgun. Probably just jealous that they can't.

I’m 100% jealous that we can’t. But at the same time their problems are very bad too.

Due to the liberal insistence on destroying/ denying Canadian culture I see North America as unfortunately this large economic zone controlled by international capital and central bankers. The border, as opposed to signifying a major cultural divide unfortunately is a loose fence that divides our jurisdictions.

South of the arbitrary fence that divides us, at least you can get guns, BUT, your leader is a war mongering Zionist pedophile who gives you nothing in return for your taxes, hates you, and opposes your freedoms in many ways.

North of the arbitrary fence, you’re in the land of the central banker who loves serving pedophile war mongering Zionists, who also gives you very little for your taxes, hates us, and opposes our freedoms in many ways including our firearms rights.

Europe is fucked in their own way, in fact I see the west as this giant neoliberal bath, and we each have sections of this pool that are each occupied by a slightly different pollutant, but at the end of the day, it’s the same hands pouring these different pollutants into the water. International capital.

And I deeply respect Americans and their culture, however I despise their state, I despise their government. But I love the people, and I yearn for them to become free the same way I also yearn for us to become free from the bureaucratic soulless system designed purely for the top 1% and the boomer liberals.

But I choose Canada. It’s where I’m born and it’s where I’m gonna stay, because despite the liberals best efforts, I know this country does have history, it does have culture, and I’m incredibly proud to be Canadian despite how fucked our state can be.

But yes I’m jealous lol

Trump will be gone and Canadians still won't be able to buy handguns or ARs. The governments in many western nations are terrible but the difference is that Americans are more willing to fight for freedom and protect their rights. That is what makes America great. It is the people and the culture, not the government. Most Canadians (including most firearm owners) don't even believe firearm ownership is a right and as a result Canadians will eventually be unable to own firearms. The "privilege" will be eroded away bit by bit along with any other rights Canadians claim to value.

I was also jealous.

America used to rule. The context in which their country was created is one of the most interesting stories of rebellion and liberty. During the early 20th century they protected the weak and created the greatest media giant in the world because they were so dang cool.

But America now ain’t what it used to be.

u/PrestigiousStatus711 Jul 05 '26

America still has the people and culture that value rebellion and liberty. I'd say the people most critical of the current American government are Americans. Canada now ain't what is used to be either, doesn't mean we can't turn it around.

No. Trump has done too much damage. The US will never be the same again. Just look at all the supreme court cases theyve been pushing out. The president cant be held accountable for crimes committed in office?

Americans are fucked and will keep getting fucked every year.

Buddy. Gun ownership =/= freedom. In fact there is a direct correlation between gun ownership and a countries shittiness and the US proves it everyday.

You guys have crime comprable to 2nd and 3rd world countries. The highest per capita prison population, the highest rates of recidivism and a higher chance to become a victim of a crime than any 2 first world countries.

You guys dont even use your second ammendment right.

u/PrestigiousStatus711 Jul 05 '26

Canadians don't even have second "ammendment" right. That is even worse.

2

u/The_King_of_Canada mb Jul 06 '26

Its not. The 2nd ammendment is redundant. Ill say it in caps.

YOU DON'T NEED THE GOVERNMENTS PERMISSION TO OVERTHROW THE GOVERNMENT.

Say it with me now.

u/PrestigiousStatus711 Jul 06 '26

Canadians do need government permission to own a gun. How has that been working?

u/The_King_of_Canada mb Jul 06 '26

And we have less crime because of it.

But go on. Keep deflecting. Keep ignoring my points.

u/PrestigiousStatus711 Jul 06 '26

Getting upset at me isn't making any points.

u/CloneFailArmy Jul 05 '26 edited Jul 05 '26

Yeah it does hurt doesn’t it. American cry babies think they’re the most free place on the earth because of gun ownership while they’re literally oppressed in every other way

It’s basically Caucasian Afghanistan. I respect Afghanistan more though because they don’t pretend they don’t hate women.

Build the wall, make them pay for it and keep those fucks out of our country and go back to pre 2020 gun bans now that we won’t have their illegal firearms and their drugs killing our citizens on the street and let their 3rd world shithole burn

u/PrestigiousStatus711 Jul 05 '26

We aren't going back to pre 2020 laws. You can thank the Liberal and NDP voters in this subreddit for that. If you ever want to own and shoot an AR you will have to move to the US.

Sorry nice try but I voted conservative in the last four elections. If Carney repeals all this bullshit I might consider swapping floors though since I’m not a tribalistic monkey who has evolved cognitively beyond clans. If a party offers a better deal then they offer a better deal. Until then though 🤷🏻‍♂️
