'Simple mistake': U.S. tourist charged with bringing loaded gun to CN Tower

An American tourist is facing several charges after a loaded gun was found inside a backpack during a routine security check at the CN Tower in Toronto.

Toronto police have not been able to determine if the firearm was brought into Canada from the United States, or if it was bought here.

Sounds like we shoulda finished the job in 1812, then things like tis wouldn't happen...

Just kidding, my GF's a Canuck, and while soe of her politics are typical Toronto she's so outspokenly pro-gun and pro-CCW she make *me* look like one of Bloomer's Demanding Mommies. See why I'm so serious about building her a rifle and getting her range time if the pin-dicked a**hats in the bureaucracy will get out of our way?

Perhaps he thought he was in Seattle and up the Noodle.

He is in some serious s**t there, for sure.

Ignorance is no excuse in the eyes of the law!

But what about stupidity to the point of lunacy?

I couldn't possibly make a comment like that about an American, on an American forum.















Well, yes, I can.

What a total dwong.

Since he was arrested in Canada I guess he will lose his permit in the States too.

Bad news.... the "stupidity penalty" is gonna end up costing him a lot of money.
Good-ish news... at least it'll mostly be in Canadian dollars.

Bad news.... he's going to need a lawyer eh.
Good-ish news... at least it'll probably be a polite, soft spoken lawyer.

Now, now, Sir. That's not nice. Just because you don't like us, doesn't mean you can disrespect the whole country.

Canadians in YOUR country try hard to understand and comply with YOUR laws, even when they sound, uh, odd.

Like Oklahoma, where it is illegal to have a sleeping donkey in your bathtub after 7pm.

Just sayin'.

Oklahoma, huh? Here's a couple from my birth State of Idaho:

Pocatello
A law passed in 1912 provided that "The carrying of concealed weapons is forbidden, unless some are exhibited to public view.
A person may not be seen in public without a smile on their face.

Coeur d Alene
If a police officer approaches a vehicle and suspects that the occupants are engaging in sex, he must either honk, or flash his lights and wait for three minutes before approaching the car.

Boise
Residents may not fish from a giraffe's back.

But a Canadian packing a loaded gun without the proper documents would be in deep trouble here. too. Sgt Nambu said it all, "Ignorance is no excuse in the eyes of the law!"

Canada IS your ally, but none of the US firearms laws mean diddly-squat in Canada.

It really IS a different country, y'know.

It's true that I may not be able to tell you what day of the week it is.
But I always manage to know what country I'm in.

How else will you know what ''weapon system'' you can expect to capture and deploy?

I found it funny the headline was "Simple mistake..."

Lucky guy.

Much worse prisons in Mexico.
