Ah true! Syndicated, very possible!

I think your work is great, keep going.

Maybe the first? I dunno, I love your stuff, I was also doing comics as an out trans woman way back when. Probably you were the first but a few others of us were around. I haven't done anything related to comics in a long time.

Rural Canada (where I live) has the same. Different terms, but same result.

What's the origin of "bogan"? If it has one.

USA: If only we knew why
World: Guns.
USA: Music? Comics? D&D? Games?
World: It's GUNS.
USA: Maybe it's anti depressants?
World: Guns.
USA: We need to take away more rights, & add more guns.
World: The problem is the guns.
USA: If we just crack down harder & arm more people, then maybe...

That's actual freedom - where people can be themselves

Not fake freedom where you keep restricting people more and more

Just delightful

Stop posting about JK Rowling with polite words & terms.

She is not gender critical.

She is a bigot, a TERF, who promotes hatred of a minority, she is even funding hate in other countries.

Gender critical is "Ooh, not sure about that skirt, love."

TERF is "You don't have a right to exist."

But what we do know is this:

Guns make you less safe, you don't need a gun for self defence unless you live in a society where everyone has guns.

Then the answer is get rid of the guns, not more guns.

In Canada you can defend yourself using reasonable force. It is legal.

Never believe MAGA.
August 21, 2025 at 4:59 PM
Police could be very wrong. ACAB.

Or ... maybe the homeowner went ham on the burglar & tried to take him out in fear and adrenaline rush, going far over the line of reasonable force.

We don't know. At all. Pure speculation.
August 21, 2025 at 4:57 PM
Break into my house and I will defend myself. As should you.

Reasonable force means stop hitting someone when they can't hit back. Don't stab someone when they are incapacitated.

For the police to charge the homeowner in the case - some shit WENT DOWN.

We just don't know what yet.
August 21, 2025 at 4:54 PM
Here's where it gets interesting, in the case that MAGA is freaking out about, www.cbc.ca/news/canada/..., we don't know any of the details. All we know is homeowner is fine, burglar airlifted to hospital in life threatening condition.

Everything else is speculation.

Anything could have happened!

Almost all guns in Canada that are used in a crime are illegally here from the USA. Sort that out.

We are allowed to defend ourselves if someone breaks into our house - but the defence has to be "reasonable force".

So if someone shoves you, you can't hit them with a brick.
August 21, 2025 at 4:49 PM
The police are charging the burglar with criminal damage, assault with a weapon etc. But also charging the homeowner too.

That's the bit MAGA is going nuts about.

They are claiming that because Canada doesn't have guns, & you are not allowed to defend yourself, it is not safe.
