Misc “Men don’t wear pistols in Canada!”

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?

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.

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.

Ok. We mostly see full sized frames when they show their loot. Thugs don't like 1911s eh?

Its easy for them to go to the us find straw buyers or even just buy off the secondhand market without any paperwork then come back with a trunk full of guns. The border agency catches 1 every so often but its apparent that most are getting across. The government was so focused on confiscating the wrong firearms from legal responsible firearm owners all the while thousands of illegal firearms were crossing now they will have to catch up to start seizing them 20-50 at a time. Even when a criminal does a broad daylight shooting they get almost as much time in custody as a citizen does after using a weapon to protect themselves against a home invasion. Ive seen a video of a shooter getting out of jail laughing because he commited a shooting broad daylight in the city and did less than a year.

Canadian gun control laws are an exercise in Anarcho-Tyranny.

I think they like glocks , dracos and ar pistols. I know tow truck drivers were illegally carrying and shooting eachother for like a decade or more. I havent heard much about it lately but there was some crazy shootings they were involved in like this one https://youtu.be/xNIhPOuR_1c?si=a_aOvf0pkycywjcR
