Unfortunately, having only lived on a farm for summer months a few times (my cousin’s farm), and not having any friends or relatives that hunt, I never learned to use a gun. Of course in PRC (Politically Repressive Canada), handguns are ‘verboten’ and Prime Mistake True-dolt, the brain dead WEF sycophant and communist, will make the owning of long guns, next to impossible.
I do wish I had taken up hunting decades ago. We need a PROPER constitution in this country, rather than the ‘constipation’ that we have. What we need in PRC (Politically Repressive Canada) is a BINDING SECOND AMMENDMENT! The FedGouvCan will sent to citizens, on request, a copy of our ‘constitution’, the ‘Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms’ on heavy, fancy paper stock, with a full colour, embossed, Canadian Coat of Arms on it. In February, we found out exactly how ‘strong’ our ‘Constitution’ is, when the little dick-tater declared martial law in PRC (Politically Repressive Canada) against the Freedom Convoy and those who supported the truckers. Given how weak the ‘guarantees’ of the Charter are, it should be printed on toilet paper. It would prove more useful then!
Tuck Frudeau!
Amazing to not know how to use a gun. I thought it was a common man’s right of passage.
We lived in town when I was young and yet I began hunting when I was between 4 and 5. Not so much really hunting but making the walk for upland game bird hunting and seeing how working over the dogs was done.
I got an Ithica single shot drop block .22 for my fifth birthday. Dad took me out somewhere to shoot often and being a Marine was a strict disciplinarian in gun safety and other things.
I got a 12 gauge single shot shotgun when I was about 7 or 8 and it kicked like a mule. It was a long time before I learned that shooting didn’t have to hurt your shoulder. I eventually got the Remington 1100 I have hunted with for nearly 60 years now. Not a thing wrong with it.
When I was in High School just about all of us had gun racks in our trucks and most contained a shotgun and an rifle just in case we went hunting before or after school. Nobody I knew was a shoot ‘em up reckless type of guy. Nobody ever even thought about going to the parking lot for a gun. Never once heard a whisper of it.
I have had a lifetime of hunting and guns and still don’t have the urge to kill anyone without cause.
