Dangerous times even in small town

[CADplans]

Yesterday, in Baltimore, a 55 year old lady stopped to give a "homeless" mom a few dollars,,

it turns out, the "homeless" mom was part of a robbing team,,
After the 55 year old lady stopped,, a guy jumped out, and stabbed the lady to death,,, so that they could rob her.

That is the end of my donations,,,

A guy would be smart to carry two wallets. One with a bit of cash, old expired DL and credit cards!

New a job site super attendant that carried two wallets. Actually carried a wallet in one pocket with $10 that had been in said wallet for years. Carried his cash and ID in a money clip in his other pocket.

He and another coworker got robbed in a gas station parking lot. He pulled out his wallet and handed it to the guy griping about him getting his last $10

After they got back in the truck and the robber left, he pulled his money clip out of his pocket. He was carrying $2500 in cash That takes some Balls to stand there like that

Actually I did hear about someone being robbed many years ago and then approached by the robber some time later and reprimanded because something he took from them was fake, or something along those lines.

Can you imagine how things will go if they simply open borders? All those have nots and us with all our money and stuff?

Americans are one thing, but how about us, lame, weak, naive, stupid, unarmed canadians? It would be like shooting rats in a barrel!

It seems lots of folks are spoiling for a fight in these times. Thin skinned and ready to go at the drop of a hat. And it doesnt just stop at disagreeing unfortunately. Better to be ready for something than to wish you had.

I forgot to mention spineless! Speaking of which, our PM is off at the G20 "fighting" for gender equality! I hope he doesn't get hurt or that his eyebrows fall off his face like at the last meeting!

The Mexican Mennonites that work up here have a huge bottle of Tobasco sauce in the lunchroom that they use on everything!

The problem the way I see it, is if you own anything or have any money, and you go and shoot someone, you stand to loose a lot in legal fees defending yourself. Maybe, WAY, WAY more than anything a burglar might have taken from you.

Not a problem for those of you in Canada though......
It is basically impossible to legally carry a hand gun in Canada.
If you are attacked....
Just call the RCMP......They will eventually arrive.

You mean, probably voicemail, they might eventually answer! Then probably in French, despite pressing 1, and then quickly put you back in the Que for English, starting from the beginning! And then, some time later, just go to Dial Tone!

You make a very good point. Too many "macho" people could possibly have deep regrets after the fact.

If I were ever to exercise my right to carry using my CCP, it would be used only as a LAST RESORT to protect my life or the life of my family, period. Material possessions can always be replaced.

And manage to create a sexual harassment suit (amongst themselves) in the process.
