    Or, we could take the approach of 'Very Proper Charlies' in which a group of reporters agree that terrorists be ridiculed instead of presented as significant threats.

    Far be it for me to criticize our Canadian colleague, but I think I prefer @misanthropist's piece on the 1911 - https://calibremag.ca/why-the-1911-i...ale-imitation/

    Also, I got distracted halfway through the OP op-ed, by the Tangfolio Stock II Xtreme - http://www.firearmsoutletcanada.com/...e-9mm-4-4.html - That's a good looking gun...

    While the article is tongue-in-cheek, what are opinions on the concept of restricting free speech and preventing the names and photos of the perpetrators from being published? It seems like, legislatively, it's one of the few things that could actually make a difference.

    That was a surprisingly popular piece when it first went out. I was nervous about it because I wasn't sure if people would get the humour or not.

    But I mostly got good feedback.


    And a small amount of absolute outrage.

    This is a thread where I built a boat I designed and which I very occasionally update with accounts of using it, which is really fun as long as I'm not driving over logs and blowing up the outboard.
