And what if that were true? What would stop someone from saying "this fucking colt 45 is a part of my religion, you can't take it away from me, I'm allowed to carry it on me at all times" ect ect. What the fuck is next?
I'm all for diversity, equal rights and all that bullshit, but sweet tap dancing christ, where's the limit?
Religion is the basis of all wars, the enforcer of them just as much.
And if all I had to do was deny I used my weapon and walk away freely, who'll be the next Manson and shit to walk the streets, be in school or eat at the table next to you in a restaurant?
Just 2 years ago in Montréal, some fucking lunatic went on a rampage at Dawsom college with guns, what prevents others to reach the same mental destination, but mostly fully equipped to contribute invariable and ever-conclusive consequences?
Read this shit and think about it - if other "weapons" would be a part of any religion and how safe you would feel next to someone who carries them.
The teen told Montreal youth court on Monday that he never removed his kirpan from its protective wrapping until he was told to by police long after the incident was supposed to have occurred.
"[A police officer] told me to unwrap my kirpan, and I told her I was not allowed, and she said I had no choice," the teen testified on Monday.
"I was wondering why they were asking me to take it out."
The incident allegedly took place at Cavelier de LaSalle high school in Montreal's LaSalle borough on Sept. 11.
The accused's mother has testified that her son had just been baptized a few weeks earlier, and received his kirpan and hairpin as part of his faith as an orthodox Sikh.
The mother said she had wrapped the kirpan that morning for him in a cloth to wear under his clothing.
The incident was allegedly sparked when the teen told two brothers at the school to stop following him during a lunch break.
That's when the brothers testified that the teen pulled out his kirpan and hairpin, and began waving them around.
They testified the teen touched the end of the kirpan to one of their chests and threatened the other brother with the long hairpin.
The teen also denied using the hairpin as a weapon during his testimony on Monday.
The teen is one of the final witnesses to testify at the trial. Closing arguments are also expected to take place this week.
The right for a student to wear a kirpan in school was upheld in 2006 after the Supreme Court of Canada struck down a Montreal school board's ban of the wearing of the ceremonial dagger in school.
The accused and the alleged victims in the case are enrolled at a school that is part of the same board.
