Postoak, the United States and Canada skirmish around the Bill and Charter every day and as hundreds of previous threads here have shown there's no end to feelings about application of those rights either way. I'll take your word that Jim Jumbo associated a firearm with terrorism but "association" is often loosey-goosey in the same way I'm connected with Sophia Loren in my mind and have only seen her on the screen.
But so what if he did? In civil society we grapple with these issues every day i.e. gay marriage rights, whether marriage commissioners can opt out of officiating gay weddings, conscientious objector status in Canada, etc and in the US: Ten Commandments in the court house, display of religious symbols, Intelligent Design and creationism in schools etc. None are being fired for what they think.
It would be a shame if they are. If I were his publisher or sponsor, I'd have opened his columns or space to provide opportunities for people like ourselves to challenge him. Better intelligent discourse than a man disappearing without comment like driven smoke. Regards, King
