But even if they are seeking that cowboy imagery, how doesn't that glorify gun violence? People get offended. To me it's laughable that guns on a jersey spark outrage. It did 2 years ago.

Remember when the Jets unveiled their jersey & logo how some said it glorified the military & war? Someone is always gonna ***** about something.

Not to belabour this - because I'm certainly not losing sleep over it - but to me, I just ask myself why? What purpose do guns have on a Canadian football jersey? Their logo is a horse, they are stampeders (more ranchers than cowboys). It doesn't have a place/purpose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Obama is going to be making a statement about it at the summit. Stamps are pretty ho hum about this win. Overconfident. ripe for the picking I say. Messam sure runs upright.

iso_55 Posted September 5, 2016 Report Share Posted September 5, 2016 Well, the way this discussion went on the subject here were the same way in Calgary. Stamps to their credit (I believe) didn't back down to the people who complained. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALuCsRED Posted September 5, 2016 Report Share Posted September 5, 2016 37 minutes ago, Throw Long Bannatyne said: Not in Canada, they didn't. Sure farmers and ranchers probably had rifles but the NWMP didn't allow them to walk around with them just so they could shoot people when drunk. We were a British colony and governed as such, not an extension of the U.S. The NWMP and RCMP wear guns on their sides. They are/were Canadians.

iso_55 Posted September 5, 2016 Report Share Posted September 5, 2016 Anyone who says guns weren't part of our history back in the 19th century is kidding themselves. I doubt many people in Philadelphia & New York carried guns 140 years ago either as they would have considered themselves as civilized. But in the American Wild West people did. Same in Canada back then in the West. Maybe people didn't in Ottawa, Montreal & Toronto but the big cities today in Western Canada or the Northwest Territory as it was called then either still didn't exist or were whistle stops on the CP rail line or before. People carried guns in Western Canada. We were lucky we never had problems with tribes in Canada going to war against the white settlers like they did in the US.

iso_55 Posted September 5, 2016 Report Share Posted September 5, 2016 I don't own a gun. I never have & I never will. I have used my father's shot gun & rifle as a teen in grade 12 when I was interested in hunting. But I found out that I couldn't shoot an animal for sport. My heart would have been heavy had I killed an animal needlessly & thankfully I never did. After staring down some ducks in a blind & deliberately missing, I just put my shotgun down & told my dad I couldn't do it. So, I'm not a advocate of guns but as far as having 2 six shooters crossed on each shoulder of the Stamps jerseys, I could care less. However, I have no problem with the Stamps doing it.

Mark F Posted September 5, 2016 Report Share Posted September 5, 2016 (edited) heartfelt post Iso.... Is Ricky Ray done? I know I'm tired of watching his five yard passes.

Tracker Posted September 5, 2016 Report Share Posted September 5, 2016 1 hour ago, iso_55 said: The West. Cowboys. People wore guns a hundred & thirty years ago. A good deal of southern Alberta was settled by Americans who came after their civil war, thinking they could have slaves here after the practice was banned in the US. The first premier of Alberta was the grandson of one of these. These ex-pat Americans were resentful of any further government interference in their lives and choices- we would call them rednecks now. And BTW: in all the Old West America, Dodge City, Laramie, Tombstone, etc, guns had to be checked in at the Sheriff's office before they could hit the local taverns.
