If I was attending the olympics and wanted to stab someone bad enough, I'd find a way. kirpan or no kirpan.

And in today's society the muslims are the ones we are worried about.
Yesterday the sikhs protected India from the muslims and today they will protect Vancouver from the Muslims. I for one thank you Sikhs!

i can take a kirpan and rub it across my hand and it won't cut me. the pocket knife i have in my car if I rubbed it across my hand I'll need to get stiches. the kirpan a normal person wears is not capable of killing anyone. there are much easier ways to stab/kill people then a kirpan.

that is effed up..
what if my religion said i could carry around a religious gun around??
just because my religion dictates something doesn't mean it should be allowed everywhere...
This could get very dangerous.
i'm not saying it will be dangerous because real sikhs will abuse this. but the people who pretend to be sikh could take advantage of this...
very scary imo.

I viewed a home the other day and the lady showing it had one attached to her pants. Caught me offguard cause I never really seen one before. No big deal. But, the whole time I had amusing thoughts in my head like it would be funny if I had a gun in a sling like a cowboy !

Sikhs have been wearing kirpans to sporting events for years. I don't see the problem with them wearing them at the Olympics. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cJKS1...eature=related

Let's just say that we make plenty of concessions for Sikhs as is and allowing them to carry a weapon around is just going way too dam far. Saying it's for peace and self defense is a bullshit line cause peaceful people don't carry weapons with them. Besides, muslims have AKs now. What's your kirpan going to do against an AK?

i dont really see it as a big deal.
sikhs are everywhere, and ive never heard of a stabbing with a kirpan.
if even once such incident happened in the GVRD it would be instantly banned in public.
how many times have u been in the bus, in a mall, on the street, etc, just feet away from a guy carrying one? its not threatening imo.
