Remember that these are the guys who said that they were preparing to fight UN and/or Chinese troops who might invade Canada?

Now their lawyer says that they were used for hunting? Was she taking about the pipe bomb or the handguns?

I don't see a single trigger or cable lock in that photo. Was the ammunition stored in a separate locked container?

These guys should never be allowed to own a firearm again based solely on the UN/China delusion. These types of violent collective fantasies are extremely dangerous and they absolutely should be disqualifying.

82% of Canadians supported the changes to the firearms regulations. 66% currently want stronger gun control. I'm not, "gatekeeping" anything. I'm discussing the reasons for what's going on. Labeling anyone who says anything you don't like a, "gatekeeper" or a Fudd diminishes the value of anything you have to say.

Why don't you instead try to explain why you need the prohibited version of a firearm instead of the functionally identical non-restricted version?

Or try to explain why you don't want to use the exact same prohibited firearm if it's coated hot pink?

The gun lobby makes such a big deal about banning firearms based on their looks. Explain why looks are your criteria for selecting a firearm.
