If you are too lazy to even look at my profile that isn't my problem .
Your profile is no concern to me, your attitude is.

Hint I live country6 where the police are not routinely armed and gun licensing is one of the most restrictive in the world.
Then why would you assume that they could be killed on sight? ? The police of first world countries is usually not known to be trigger happy.

Being dressed and like that with gun facsimiles outside government buildings was dumb.
I really like how many like to point at the government building. Maybe these guys were from out of town and therefore didn?t know?
I mean you guys may be walking maps but I don't know the location or look of the city hall of the next town?

I don't know about Canada, but in Norway(and Sweden) they're not required to have orange tips, so wearing a replica gun can be an actual threat.
That's my entire point. The article tells us they did something wrong and the punishment, but not what that something was.

As for what law they broke, probably the same one where screaming ''BOMB'' in a theater is illegal.
First off it's "fire", second that's an American law, and third that only covers what is protected under "free speech". But let's have some fun with it.

I've had that one cited at me a few times (because I open carry a pistol sometimes), so I ask this. IF, and that's a big "if", the only thing they did was to cause people to become scared without acting threatening which law do we follow? (Again, assuming no other laws were broken) Do we respect the law that says those gentlemen can lawfully carry those replicas or do we respect the law saying you can't cause false panic? At what point do your rights trump mine when we're both acting lawfully? That's why I wanted to know exactly what the charges were and what punishment went with which charge.
