I have absolutely nothing against gun owners. just those who conceal carry.
just yesterday I had a fun day shooting these guns:
(not these exact ones obviously but the same types)
Lee Enfield Mark III
SKS
and Winchester 30-30
but mostly the SKS since ammo is by far the cheapest.
It's concealed carry I have a problem with. There is absolutely no need in this country to carry a handgun on you. It's a product of being completely paranoid and leads to an insecure nation (case and point, the USA). The more armaments there are walking around in the street, the LESS safe the place is. I'm incredibly glad for Canada's laws on conceal carry and restricted guns yet their more liberal laws on useful firearms.
and getting attacked by wildlife is a terrible excuse to conceal carry. first off, why the eff would you want a 9mm defending yourself against a bear? I'll take my 12 gauge and slugs thank you. and then you realize 90% of the population doesn't even live where there are any dangerous animals at all. Maybe the very occasional moose, but how many moose deaths are there that don't involve a vehicle (where a firearm would be useless anyways)??
And I know I speak for the vast majority of Canadians when I say concealed carry of firearms has absolutely no place in our society.
