Hey, I worked in "Gunnersvull'. But why is the writer so
interested in
the church connection. Is there something there we are not
getting, or
is he just somehow trying to paint religeon/conservatives/guns etc
into one picture? Why was the mans occupation even noted, and would
the story have been written if he was say a barber? Just wondering,
the writer seems to indicate this type of seizure is not unusual...
hummmmm...

Cultural thing I suppose. Up here, normal people wouldn't think of
carrying a firearm...let alone a church official.
No hunters or target shooters in Canada, huh? Wow, times have sure
changed
since my uncle took me hunting up there.

"Carrying" implies something quite a bit different than going hunting
or target shooting.

There may be others who carry a firearm, but hunters and target
shooters
also carry them. When I go to a pistol range, I carry the weapon. If I
go
hunting, I carry a firearm.
Of course, I may not fit someone's definition of 'normal' !

I think I know what you are talking about, and "carrying" might mean
"packing heat" to some criminal elements, but I really don't think that
is the way Don was using the term.

Speaking of fortuitous...how nice that you should mention Tilley hats as I
was in the market for a hat. And, at the same time, the closest store
carrying Tilley's was having a 20% off sale. Now we are both proud owners
of a Tilley. They are a very comfortable hat!

They are great hats. But, are they still claiming that they float? If so,
don't believe it for a moment. I lost one a couple of years ago when some
serious wind blew it off my head. It landed 10 feet away in the water, and
sank instantly.

Let me make sure I understand this. In the west, it is common to see
people with a guy in a holster, in plan sight. Wouldn't they be
considered to be carrying?

Since i don't own a guy, if you are going to the range or out to the
woods for target practice, don't you carry it on the seat in plan view,
or in the trunk of the car (I really don't know the legal way to bring a
guy to the range)?

Wouldn't that be considered "carrying" if a cop stopped you?

I have always thought if I needed a weapon to protect myself while
cruising, it would be a shotgun or a flare, not some tiny little 357.

Wow, Don. You just don't stop, do you? You can't deny that you tend to post
articles derogatory of the USA. That may be jealousy or it may be
bitterness, I don't know. But, you surely expect someone in the USA to
comment on your negative attitude, no?

Being semi-sociable won't hurt you. Give it a shot.

Sure was glad I left the guns at home on my last motorcycle trip to
Montreal! The Canadian customs did do a quick search of both bikes.
Hell,
two 50 year-olds on Moto Guzzis are worrisome customers.


Think they'd bother me on my Harley with the clergy sticker on the

They look at motorcyclists *very* carefully! We're all carrying drugs and
guns, doncha know.

The dumb ass in your article shouldn't have lied. Lying is never a good
policy.

Don loves to look for an article that presents Americans in a bad light.

I remember when he used a poor Canadian woman's death as a troll about
how unsafe the US is. The problem is the exact same week there were many
Canadians who died in Canada from violence. It is sort of Canadian on
Canadian violence and it is epidemic north of the border. In the US we
have very little Canadian on Canadian violence, even though it would be
considered justifiable.


I didn't interpret it that way. I saw it as a comment on a type of person
already know to be disconnected from reality. The preacher either didn't
bother to check the rules, or he figured he could get away with lying
about the gun. Personally, I think Canada's gun laws are a joke, but it's
not my country and the law has to be obeyed.

I see the idiot Smithers ...

"Carrying" typically means carrying on your person a concealed firearm
for personal protection. In many states, you have to have a state-issued
permit to carry a concealed weapon in states that recognizes your
permit. I have such a permit.

That's called "open carry." Very few states allow that, typically states
out west, though I believe Virginia allows it.
