Here the bicycle crowd is a plague, they don’t believe the rules apply to them, stop signs aren’t even suggestions, signals 😂 Nope, and don’t get me started on riding three abreast and brake checking cars, lane splitting my motorcycles, truckers on meth, and idiot teens whose parents gave the sports cars for their 16th… most expensive car owners are good, expect BMW drivers, who all seem to be jerks!
I thought bicyclists were worth 10 points! :oops:
 
Eggscellent idea 👏
Plus Bob should have ten dollars a page
Seeing as FBA is practically a full time job😉
Here’s some back taxes… I’m sure I owe!

Send Bob to see me! I’m sure that he would like to see what real retirement is all about!
Ps. I could sure use his help!
Thing is, Bob and wife, do have a place close here to stay if they wanted to. My first question (when I see them) would be, “so where do you all want to go?” Bob knowing me as he does, means that we will probably head back to my airport. Take out Marie and Maybe have dinner in San Francisco? @ByBob’s choice!
 
Pony and I are both in Canada, albeit at opposite ends of the country. We have fairly strict regulations on discharging firearms, and even aiming one at a person is usually a criminal offence. Hunting season is late August or early September here, and there are also limits on the number of deer (antlered and non antlered) each person with a hunting license is permitted. Individual tags are granted, and to procure a firearm it’s a two day course, $300+, and there is a government approval process which is impeded by any recent divorce, domestic disturbance, termination of employment, etc. You also need to provide three personal references, which they do check. That’s just for long guns, for sidearms it’s even more expensive. Strict regulations on transportation and storage, allowable ammunition, and type of weapon for hunting different species (no rifles for deer).

Farmers have far more leeway and can shoot deer as pests anytime, but can’t harvest the meat. Within the other limitations on distances from roads and such only, of course. Basically there are now only Five properties on the entire island here that it is legal to shoot on three of which allow hunters and all are private properties. Our local indigenous band is permitted to hunt for sustenance in the government park that adjoins our property though, due to a specific treaty to that effect, and on their own reservation at any time. This causes me the occasional panic attack, especially when it spooks the sheep if they are out my way, and really upset one animal activist crackpot (I love animals but we are talking the really crazy sort on this one) who bought near the reservation with the idea that hunting wasn’t allowed anywhere on the island. The feral goats may be harvested anytime on those properties large enough to legally hunt on, as they aren’t “game”.

So, depending on the exact location, and size of properties… there’s a fair or better chance that at this time of year the person discharging the weapon wasn’t doing it in accordance with our laws/regulations. Canada is a little weird that way. And open carry is an absolutely crazy suggestion, unless you’re in remote grizzled territory, or Alberta 😉

Edit to add: target shooting is usually restricted to ranges and transporting your gun there requires it be in a locked case, unloaded, separating from the ammo, also in a locked case I believe?
I am in rural farm country in Ontario, and its nothing to see farmers out shooting coyotes, coons, foxes....

The kids shoot the traffic signs... They have to be 16 to get a hunting license, but can't own a firearm till 18.

Deer and moose hunting is from Sept to mid Dec depending on your zone and weapon type.

Turkey is in the Spring.

But vermin can be hunted any time.

Tax 🤗
