Actually weapons in the States, it's part of rights. If police keeps everything under controll, why not?)

i did not shoot anyone at all , a greber mk 2 is a combat knife. yes they over powered me with bats and chains. Training in the hand to hand pits from the military i belived saved me.Mostly because I learned how to take a beating and stay in the fight The more to the story is I did not roll over and curr out, the other point is the invaders had the wrong house The incident I speak of did happen, why would I lie ?Do anyof you think for one moment I am atempting to impress any of you ? Not likly at all. Just one incident that happened to myself, Iam sure there are others that can tell of other events such as this.
Sure did peel tonnes of spuds and burnt a lot of latrines waste , among more interesting stuff that a mud grunt needs to do.
I would jump in and help a stranger , even any of you folks, as fast as I would to help my kin should it be nessary. I would not help anyone who is shooting thier mouth off and find a beating coming thier way.
It appears that some of you that seem to disagree , are quick to call names and such other insults. If you have not been on the reciving end of violance, then you know exactly nothing on the topic. To put it simply , when under threat I follow , fire , aim , ready. NOT ready aim fire

Your post still reeks of something unpleasant, and still doesn't answer the question. Some of your terminology makes me think you've watched too many war movies, let alone served.

As for the part I bolded in your post, does being involved in both war and "peacemaking" count as being violent?

2cdo i can care more of what you think of myself. The airborne eh?, LOL a joke unit that was at the end of it's day , a most violent unit that was

Says the wanna-be soldier who watches war movies and had to surf the net to find out what that badge was. How about regaling us with stories of your unit and it's glorious training in home defence! Time to man up little boy, because I and others think you're a poser. Thus you have zero credibiltiy when discusing anythin military related.

Better get back to Google and dig up some false military background.

Can do better than that 'little boy' Joined Canadian Armed Forces Jan 01 1978 The Royal Canadian Regiment 1st Batalion , posted to Canadian Airborne Regiment (3CDO) in 1979. Back to 1st RCR in 1981 released 1983. Honerable discharge.
What would you call what happened in Somalia if not a violent unjustified beatings of natives by a 'peace keeping' unit. Made me less than proud I served with CAR. Or do you support what happened there? If you do then your possition in this topic is hypocritical .
Further more , should 'Cdo' be all in capitial letters ? It always was when I was in 3 CDO CAR. I could be mistaken though.
2CDO do you speak to people in public in this manner? If you how is your dental plate ? I figgure most likly you do not , only when you have the safty of the pc to hide behind. You decided to start with the cheap shots , and kept them up, there by provking myself into this responce.
So 'little boy' I maybe was in and out of the regiment before you got to or left Corwallis to go to the Pats. Further more should not 'Cdo' be done in capital letters? Enough said by me on this, I fear big brother as much as I fear a 'little boy' who may have 911 on spead dial .
Maybe now we can get back to the topic is about.

Being that the vote was 5-4 , the door is still open in the supreme court for a reversal in the decision.
Will the criminal abide by the law, I think should be pondered. I still strongly belive that violance should and can only be met with greater force. I.E. should some one attack me on the street, I will take the first advalable weapon at hand ,fist, foot, sock with change in it, knife ,dog ,rock, stick , knife what ever, and use it till one of us is disabled. If I was allowed to carry a firearm, I would use that as well.

PLEASE NOTE ALL
I sincerly apologise to all members of the forces for my statment here and above.Only to provoke this 2CDO person. I did not bring this on , only stating my point of view in my posts, and what happened to myself during a home invasion. After all is this not what this forum is about. I may agree or disagree with other posts within, but NEVER make a personal attack against the person who made the post.

Thankyou for your time and consideration in this matter

The US Supreme Court is a hypocritcal bunch of assholes. The right to bear arms has fuck all to do with self defense and more to do with protecting the US gun manufacturing industry. If it's all about self defense, then please explain to me, oh heavily armed Americans, why are brass knuckles banned in EVERY single state? Not just to carry but to even possess. Kinda funny how US law says I can't crush your skull with brass knuckles but I CAN blow a nice big hole in it instead.

And I wonder, does this now permit anyone to carry a gun into any government building as well, including courthouses?

Two entire years in the Airborne. You forgot to put in that you were a pathfinder, like you mentioned in your PM to me. Your hatred for the Airborne is probably related to them getting rid of you after only two years for incompetence. Followed by the RCR getting rid of you for the same reason.

For starters, it wasn't a peacekeeping operation. Your ignorance about this mission renders everything else you write moot. Personally, I think Matcheee and Brown should have never deployed as they were not good soldiers, and Matchee always acted the bully once he was promoted.

As a matter of fact I do, and no dental plate required. You still sound like a poser, thus I will still call you out.

Through an accident of birth, you are older than me. Too bad it doesn't translate to wiser. You're five whole years in the army 30 years ago means little today.

Repeating yourself is a sign of senility.

Never called 911 ever and I'm pretty sure you would not give me any reason to!

You brought this on, by claiming to have had some "home defence" training in the army and were called on it. Don't like myself and others questioning your background, then don't pretend to be something you're not!

While you may see a connection to the 'gun manufacturing industry' I see it as a decision based on the constitution. It says the right to keep and bear arms....to me that has nothing to do with gun manufacturing, it is a statement that US citizens can own firearms.

CCW in the US is a vastly miss-understood right. There are places you CAN NOT carry a concealed weapon even with a license.

[ASLplease]

yep. the anti-gun crowd seem to think its an all or nothing deal. it is not.

1. Brass knuckles are not illegal in every US state. Nevada, Arizona, Utah, Idaho, Oregon, Alaska, and more are examples of where owning brass knuckles is not illegal.

2. The right to keep and bear arms originated when the nation had no organized arms industry so your argument that it's just about the firearms industry is absurd.

3. The ruling does not permit guns to be carried in building where they are restricted. It also remains to be seen what effect the ruling will have on open and concealed carry restrictions.


4. And the five Justices who voted to protect people's 2nd Amendment rights are not 'hypocritical assholes'. That would be the other four Justices who voted to deprive people of their 2nd Amendment rights while THEY enjoy 24/7 armed protection. That's hypocrisy.
