    As I said, they are not border guards, they are customs agents.

    In this whole thread, Americans have been giving Canadians a big blast of shite and telling us how much safer we'd be if our borders were fortresses and we had armed border guards like you guys have, which is obviously the right way to do it, because it's how Americans do it.

    Then it was pointed out that giving border guards guns really does not do any more to protect you than having unarmed border agents, and you try to turn it around and say it was our fault for not trying to stop a person from leaving the country.

    Riiiigggghhht....

    Just take your pwning like a man and quit while you're behind.

    "What, have Canadians run out of guns to steal from other Canadians and now need to piss all over our glee?"

    Which means when they notice something wrong they are suppose to call the law enforcement. Which in the examble of the axe welding individual the Canadian Border agents did not even do that.

    Surely you can do better then this come back. Did the Canadian border agents report the individual and his suspecious activity or not? Did Canadian Law enforcement attempt to stop the individual at all?

    And so you are now getting defensive? Again have I given anyone crap - or have I ointed out the differences between the two events?


    Then it was pointed out that giving border guards guns really does not do any more to protect you than having unarmed border agents, and you try to turn it around and say it was our fault for not trying to stop a person from leaving the country.

    LOL - you are definitely being defensive. You claim that the border agents are not suppose to stop the individual in question but to report it to the law enforcement arm of the Canadian government. However did the Canadian Border agents report the event - or did they just allow the individual to cross the border? I personally don't care - if I wanted to cross the border between Canada and the United States there are places to cross where their is absolutely no one around nor custom agents, law enforcement officials. Just maybe a bear or moose to see my passing. I can do the same thing on the Southern Border also - just need to carry enough water for the crossing.

    Just take your pwning like a man and quit while you're behind.

    Maybe you should take your own advice.
    O well, seems like 'some' people decide to ruin a perfectly valid threat. Nice going guys... doc bean
