“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.

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.

Those people are already carrying and you arent. Youd be surprised who is carrying and what they have.

They aren’t. It’s not easy concealing a full size frame. Most people who have the fear will carry 9+ and we don’t see compact frames when the police do their perp galleries. I am aware there are lots of stingers in Canada. It’s not Canadian to walk around all scared trying to hide a gun in your pants. That’s US chicken shit behaviour.

Its very easy concealing a full size frame in a country where you can wear oversized hoodies and jackets for most of the year. And when I mean carrying im including what people might stash in the garbage can or car in their close proximity. Not everything ends up in a perp gallery most illegal firearms do not. They are seizing a small percentage. If you live in a rough neighborhood you know how accessible illegal firearms are and even young teens have them.
