You mean two psychopaths very publicly killed a bunch of Jews. At the end of the day it doesn’t matter whether it is a gun, truck, etc. it matters the intent behind the person using it. Vehicle attacks have been more deadly than most shooting sprees (Nice is a great example), yet I don’t see...

Beaches are a weak point. Lack of cover in a large open area with lots of people. The Nice attack of 2016 is a example of how bad it can get (86 dead, 458 wounded). Fortunately these attackers focused on using firearms instead of trucks. It is too bad being drawn and quartered isn’t a...

Just wait until millenials and such reach retirement age. Most won’t be able to retire due to much worse pensions than previous generations coupled with the inability to save thanks to much higher costs of living and stagnant wages.

Yes. When business isn’t growing much but the government is, there is less of a effective tax base to support the gov. Especially considering much of the jobs added to the private sector are rarely equal to the public sector jobs. Much more part time and lower wage jobs with worse benefits.

I think you would be surprised by what hunters own and use. I am in a hunter rich area, only one PAL holder I know has been unaffected by this and some of them are truly ‘fudds’. So many firearms banned (over 2500 makes and models as they like to advertise) means it hits tons of people. There...

I think the number is a lot greater than 15% once those last OICs started happening. They have basically banned every magazine fed semi-auto including ones that have been on the market since WWII.

For a guy who wants a nobel peace prize he is doing everything he can to prevent that from happening.

If they are smart they will 12.x the firearms, grant all current owners the right to own said license upon registration of the firearm (‘Restricted’ ones already on record, everything else needed to be registered) and have the same rules as all the other 12.x firearms. This saves them having...

I am talking about targeting a whole lot more than 1 million Sikhs, I am talking about targeting all sorts of different ethnic and religious groups to meet the manning required. Specifically targeting groups with large populations in specific areas. Targeted recruitment. Sikhs also fit in a...

Anyone can be part of any regiment. It would be making the DEUs and maybe a few unit traditions based on certain cultures. No one has to convert to anything. It would be basing the demographics to choose such regiments off of based on the percentages in the area. For example Brampton is 25%...

So basically the issue was lack of cleaning kits and poor quality ammo, that isn’t a issue with the rifle itself. Alternatively you have the SA-80 which the issues were 100% with the rifle itself, not the ammo or cleaning kits.

Sounds to me like that quote is basically a couple uniforms, helmet, tac vest, C7 and a few mags. Basically cannon fodder or alternatively population suppression force.

You mean basically the most reliable and simple service rifle ever adapted? Fairly accurate, relatively easy to use and maintain, fairly cheap to mass produce, and still hasn’t been effectively replaced by anything else almost 75 years after it was designed? The fact that it has successfully...

Remember this is the military which adopted the SA-80 a downgrade from the previous service rifle in basically every way. Took 30 years and the Germans to fix it to be somewhat usable.

Yes but my point is if we wish to increase the size of the CAF it makes sense to try and attract people to join. If part of attracting people is reflecting their cultural identity then isn’t that a easy price to pay? Take the Sikhs for example, there is around 1 million in Canada. They have a...
