“Men don’t wear pistols in Canada!”

[u/Borealbound]

The photographic, archaeological & written evidence seems to suggest otherwise.

Don‘t even make me delve into the first legislation against firearms ownership which dominion of Canada implemented and where those laws applied and who they were used against.

If theres any citizens in the world that are responsible and deserving of carrying firearms , its Canadians. Most of the people doing irresponsible things or crimes with firearms dont even look like theyve lived in Canada more than a few years.

Imagine how many times people would leave their pistols in the loo at timmies. It would be a bad look. These fuckin guys who don't do up their pants would be dropping their shit everywhere. Right now we treat them with reverence because they're dangerous. We use them with purpose and keep other people safe from accessing them. The worst case scenarios are all over US news. Do you want that level of peril around here?

No reason to engage lol, they are day dreaming about a world long gone lol

I am a machinist, making guns disappear could only be accomplished by ending humanity.

I didn’t say anything about making guns disappear. I just don’t think it would be good for us to have just anyone able to carry firearms. Imagine all the people that make you want to carry being armed as well.

As opposed to a scenario where the only people who carry firearms are law enforcement officers and criminals?
