@nursefrombirth Emotional distress because he was too stupid to check gun laws in California before driving there with inappropriately secured weapons? Reminds me of all the idiots that were flying to the Caribbean without checking their bags for bullets, who were then surprised they were charged.

@TetsuKaba we get Americans trying to enter 🇨🇦 with guns in their luggage or car trunks :(

@Zevon It’s amazing the number of people who don’t understand that other locations’ laws might be different. The best ones are Americans insisting on their first and or second amendment rights in another country. International law doesn’t work that way, sweetie.

@TetsuKaba @Zevon

Yes. They'll' insist on going to a part of the world where they are warned that travel may be risky and then expect the marines to be deployed to rescue them.

@TetsuKaba @Zevon

The first and second amendment! laws aren’t working for us the way they’re meant to in our own country!

@TetsuKaba @Zevon The other two fallacies I see commonly are:
1. US folks insisting that Constitutional protections only apply to citizens (I ask them to point out which clause in the Constitution says that, which usually makes the room go quiet)
2. UK folks who believe that UK libel law applies to people overseas.

@Zevon @TetsuKaba

''I didn't know there were laws against this''

... sometimes even off duty law enforcement officers :facepalm:

@Zevon @TetsuKaba

Note: For real, it's 3 years in jail for guns, ammo or even an empty ammunition clip brought into Canada without the proper paperwork.

@TetsuKaba and the vehicle was not registered. He's a fool for sure.
