    Default Nose Hill Park (Canada) confrontation makes visitors (Americans) feel unsafe

    http://www.calgaryherald.com/opinion...028/story.html

    Someone talked to me and my wife and I would have preferred to have shot them, rather than to speak to them. Praise Jesus The Lord of Christ.

    They and others like them can stay home, problem solved.
    A friend stationed in Afghanistan has retired and stayed on, opening a bomb plant that makes ordinance that look like prayer mats. Profits are through the roof.

    If the idiot doesn't like Canada he should stay the hell out. Sounds to me like he's the aggressive one.

    Thanks RW, you are completely right of course he was not tolerant of locals at all. Very astute of you sir!

    No, I don't believe he was angry rather nervous that the Canadians where in "attack" mode. Perhaps it would be better called concerned. I would suppose what with you Being American you might be better suited to read the tourists senses than I.

    Is perception an issue here. The american thought the guys were being aggressive. Were they really??

    I know a guy about 6'4", 275 lbs who is pretty deaf. He talks pretty loud, and the perception might be that he's being aggressive. Not true.

    So, who knows?

    Gentle-men, I have no need to talk to you, but Wawra's on the side of
    righteousness. Jesus Christ, the son of God, talked peace and love but
    packed serious heat.

    From 1 Kings:

    While walking through Samaria with his "friend" Mary Magdalene, two
    ne'er-do-wells approached. "Have you been to Shechem yet?" one asked and
    looked at Jesus askance. Hearing no reply, the second asked in a
    none-too-saintly tone and, speculatively, the work of Satan his
    intention, "Hey, have you been to Shechem?" Stepping between the two
    delinquents and his "friend", Jesus replied, "Gentle-men, I have no need
    to talk with you, goodbye." Then Jesus pulled his Glock and capped
    their unholy @sses.

    RWGR, I have to ask, would you wish you had your gun if you where in a similar situation?
    what about co-workers, friends?

    Walt is a cop too ... go figure.

    With that much paranoia and delusion in a police officer you would think the Kalamazoo force would look into this guy's psychological well-being. He's obviously a few bricks short of a load. That won't happen though, something tells me most of the Kalamazoo force is pretty much the same way.

    My favourite part was the "thank the Lord Jesus Christ" thing as well. Roll up a paranoid American cop, add a gun and throw in a little religious nuttiness of you have one hell of a potential psychopath. He actually stated he reached for his gun, so ya, if Canada would allow idiots to carry guns there could have been one hell of a mess all because two guys were trying to hand out free tickets for the Calgary Stampede.

    Want to know the shocker too? Barely any American outlets ran this story. That's media control for you folks, NRA and Republicans are able to corral that story and not let it blow up in their faces. After-all, this says nothing good about "right to bear arms" at all ... it's a story against it.
