“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.

First wave feminists were very pro gun and self-defence. The KKK and church groups had to put a stop to that in order to protect their congregation from all the self-defence. 😬

Gun control was supported to disarm women, The Saturday night special

The face of gun control is a scowling old woman (if you want proof, look at who's in Poly's pictures).

The woman most endangered by gun control is much younger.

The feminist complaint that "men think it's all about them" is, humorously, correct in this case: gun control is old woman vs. young woman far more than it ever was man vs. woman. (This is true for most policies old women prefer, in fact; the average anti-sufferagette was an old woman who could reliably lean on her husband to vote her way, and young women gaining the vote would dilute her power.)

A man once said "with a gat it don't matter if you're smaller or bigger"

and women are generally smaller.
