I somehow doubt that the gun nut TFR posters in this thread are just concerned with the specific jurisprudence and enforcement of the Regulations, and how problematic it is to use Orders in Council to enact changes to the laws.

Give me a break, no one believes this bullshit "oh no see I didn't say anything about being pro or anti gun control you see, I just think s.23 of the Regulations definition of firing mechanism is overly broad and because I'm a stickler for good jurisprudence" when in reality its "no! i like PEW PEW! if u take pew pew, I will be mad"

That's uh, a pretty hot take there on my motives. pokeyman asked if Canada has a definition of semi-automatic to make it so only bolt action/single shots are allowed. I linked the regulations so they can see yeah semi-automatic has a fairly robust definition so if the Government went "Semi-automatic is a prohibited characteristic" what follows by the definition is guns have to be not semi-automatic to be legal ie manual action only since no semi-auto means the person has to complete the full reload cycle of the action


I do think it's bullshit how the LPC enacted the regulations and the by-name bans, but I'm not going to call it illegal they enacted it. Just that the LPC are politicking for votes and not because they believe that Canadians will be safer by the OiC.

Chillyrabbit's explaining the laws that are in place and will be put in place. I don't think that's some wild pro-gun advocacy by any stretch.

Opposing gun control in the name of fighting the police/their fascist collaborators is very silly. They won't kill you any softer or put you any less in jail because you fought back with legally owned weapons.

Every gun owner thinks they'll be Rambo and will be able to defend themselves against an evil overreaching government.

Left wing gun nuts are definitely bigger morons than conservative ones, since they should know better.

Yeah having a simple rifle or shotgun for plinking or hunting is fine, but anyone who dreams that their freedom and personal security will be defended by their firearm is a drat fool.

i don't really see firearm ownership being a big problem in canada, i'm fine with the way it is now. i have no intention of ever owning any firearms but imo every good leftist should be unafraid of and trained in firearms usage. they're not going away and canada is one of the most heavily armed nations on earth, its pragmatic to be at least acquainted with them

so my wife and I went grocery shopping today, and along the road we saw an election sign for the loving Nazi party (PPC, of course). this is the first time I've ever seen them advertising in my little province. as a home-owning, tax-paying transgender man, I naturally want to piss all over that sign with my mighty mangina. however, I fully understand the legality of doing anything at all to a campaign sign. plus, the sign is at a busy 3-way intersection so I doubt I could get away with any defacing, piss or paint or otherwise.

how do you fight back against a literal Nazi campaigning in your area? I guess there's probably nothing to be done but flip the sign off every time we pass by, since they'll never get voted in, but...its existence makes me want to vomit. should I vomit on it, maybe??

(but seriously we don't know if there's something we can do besides ignoring it. is there??)

i can tell you that like in minecraft, unpopular election signs mysteriously get destroyed all the time in the middle of the night in my experience

e: i'm not saying i have destroyed signs. but i did put a bunch of signs out for the greens as a teenager and wow, the next morning they'd all disappeared and been replaced by lib/con signs on that busy, high-visibility highway median

there's a rule of thumb for election signs: if it's anywhere public anyone is going to care about (ie: not a quiet residential street), it's going to get vandalized by someone. that's why if it's REALLY valuable real estate, you put one of those big signs that mounts to wooden stakes driven into the ground there, because it makes it much more difficult to gently caress up. otherwise it's guaranteed not to last if anyone cares at all

people vandalize signs all the time, it's an unspoken truth of canadian elections
