Or by individuals/groups with enough resources and stamina to litigate it to the hilt. Likely. Likely at a practical level, but as political narrative, what it reveals about the speaker counts optically as well.

True enough, for sure. The "traitor" vs. "patriot" political narrative pigeonholing comes into play, though, based on how much people agree or disagree (and how much) with aims of the party in question. Using the American Revolution as an example, while Tarleton & Co. made a bit of a name for...

In general I’d agree, but you know how Rorschach-y these things can be. One person’s meh is another’s gotcha meme.

For further context, here's RCMP BC's info-machine latest via FB (from which the earlier screen grabs I shared were extracted):

RCMP statement out today on FB mentions a rifle that was modified, not a pistol:

Barring evidence of Canada seeking help from the CCP on building a new CF, or asking China for a line of credit to keep the lights on, no. Given you’re comfortable downplaying self-identifying separatists (going to the point of telling the US “no thanks” to 51st status) to break away from...
