@mobinfiltrator @HamiltonPolice Agree, civilians should be able to defend themselves. Many of us visit the range weekly to biweekly. On average, I put 300 rounds down range.

Gun Debate, #Canada:
When @hamiltonpolice told me the #Mafia and #HellsAngels had contracts out on my life, I was given my handgun and ordered to carry 24/7.
Under those circumstances - reasonable?
But when Glenn De Caire became Chief of #HamOnt police, he pushed for authority to carry 24/7 … without any known threat.
And it was granted! And for obvious reasons they kept it real quiet!
When I'm in #Florida I carry anywhere I am legally permitted, 24/7 without issue.
So here’s the question:
Why are police allowed to carry #firearms off-duty for “just in case,” while law-abiding citizens aren’t even trusted to have one at home to defend themselves?
One rule for them. Another for everyone else.
Thoughts?

@Dicky_Paul_95 @SDC40057817 @Polysesouvient you guys are sick. Of all the determinants of IPV on reserves, the gun is the least important thing.

@Polysesouvient You focus so much of your time on banning rifles and magazines yet THIS is the violence Canadians are dealing with that your blind lobbying doesn’t address.
Then you go ahead and post the violence anyway.

Indigenous BC man who shot his sleeping wife and shot at his cousin (and his home) after a 17-hour drinking binge sentenced to 7 years. The Crown wanted 16 years and argued that the fatal incident occurred within “a broader pattern of intimate partner violence… rather than as an isolated event.” The killer’s cousins testified that she’d made past remarks about him being abusive. One of them said Poole once said something to the “effect that if she ever died, Mr McCook would be the one who killed her.” nationalpost.com/news/canada/ki…

@TheTorontoSun Sure. Millions of canadians own guns. Millions and millions. LOL.
English

@alandrummond2 maybe you forgot 1977, and the fact that 22lr rounds are not “assault” rounds….. guess you have given up on logic and facts.
English

I'm not sure how many "millions" of Canadians own assault rifles but I am sure that Wilson and her ilk do not represent the views of the 2 million Canadians who, like me, own firearms. Rage farming at its very best; keep those donations coming!

Firearms lobbyist Tracey Wilson on challenging Liberal gun ban

Due to the #GunLobby's & #GunTrolls' inability to understand the concept of implied meaning or, more likely, its bad-faith insistence on overly literal misreading that totally ignores context (in order to mislead & fearmonger regular gun owners), @BBCWorld has specified that its initial passage referred to #AssaultWeapons, not ALL rifles, as any reasonable person who follows this file would know.

PolySeSouvient / PolyRemembers@Polysesouvient
.@BBCWorld report: Time is running out to implement a comprehensive ban that would bar ownership of all assault-style rifles, in particular the #SKS semi-automatic. The @liberal_party gvt's willingness to compensate current owners without banning new purchases of all rifle models a nightmare scenario. "It's just unbelievable that the government has invested so much in this controversial and difficult file, so much money, so much political capital, and yet they're heading for failure." bbc.com/news/articles/… via @nadineyousif_

With the declaration period now closed, thank you to all law-abiding firearms owners who declared their prohibited firearms for compensation. With over 67,000 firearms declared in the individual phase, we are working to keep communities safe.

Heidi doesn't want you to own an SKS - so if you don't already, make sure you do.
Because they're still not done with going after our firearms.

Again, Muslims have been literally massacred in Canada and politicians did not respond by limiting civil liberties and making reading the Bible illegal.
Why are attacks on empty Jewish buildings more important than Muslim lives or the freedom of Canadians? @MarkJCarney
