Misc Air Canada took away my bullet keychain...

Security guy said it looked like a replica bullet. It literally was a rifle slug with a hole drilled sideways through it and a key ring on it.

Woke crap. No wonder they're all scared. They don't know anything about bullets...

That's just rules following with extra steps. You have so much anger and self rigorous rage and that's the best you can come up?

And formal complaint to who exactly?

CATSA specifically prohibits bullet keychains. So what's the meat of your complaint?

Come on man work with us here, lead us to the better future.

And just FYI people who point out that a rule exists are not agreeing that such a rule should exist. Most folk learn this in kindergarten, but it's ok it took you a little longer.

Unfortunately having travelled has exposed me to different countries air travel and while I’m sure people appreciate your jingoism, Canada is utter shit to fly in or out of. You can really tell how little life experience others have by their blind endorsement of policy by automatically complying. Utilizing any and all tools at your disposal including a complaint process is sometimes the best that can de done.

At the end of the day the rule is utterly stupid, like most rules and the people it’s designed to stop will circumvent it as unlike yourself they don’t worship it on its alter merely for being a rule.

Really irked you in kindergarten that you had to take turns being the playground patroller and couldn’t wear the vest and carry the whistle everyday, as god forbid those other children ran at recess.

You don't need "based in Alberta" on your profile.  It's pretty easy to tell.

Makes me glad actually, that’s an exceptionally high compliment even from the likes of yourself.

I prefer to not sleep under the hobnailed jackboot of extremism like many on here embrace.

I would file several of your detailed, passionate opinions as extremist but go off queen.

At least you've got gumption.

We currently live under an unelected leader with a non elected senate, and our legacy media or propaganda arm of the Federal Government has helped to cover up a rapist and treats our former PM like a figure of medieval royalty.

In the pantheon of extremism I’m adjacent to Winnie The Pooh as far as dangerous.

Edit: Fictionalized Winnie The Pooh, not the heritage minutes black bear as that bad boys a souped up raccoon and could grapple a garbage can like an ol boy at the legion crushes a Blue
