Kirkhill.... interesting... I wonder if there would be a way of routing damaged sytems to non-damaged area's.  But it sounds from your post that would be the case.  I would like to see what this looks like operationally.  I think the Brits are on to something big.

You are the one projecting this "moral authority" issue, not me.  I thought this was a place to voice constructive opinion without prejudice.  Note I said "constructive" opinion. For God's Sake, read posts before you reply.  Back to my initial post, I simply pointed out that Kilo 302 had a...

Your just showing off your ignorance now.  This was professional until you starting making it personal.  Try to keep your comments a little more objective rather than downright insulting.  And as for your comments about TO, well... I deal with know-it-all's like you everyday.  Maybe you should...

Wow, you've got a mouth on you 48th.  Read my profile if you want to see my credentials about what I think is right. I'm the guy who is going to have to face down one of those guns on the street, not you.  So before you go running off at the mouth, you better know what the hell you are talking...

48th, I'm sure we are all in agreement that there are many ways that a person can be killed, and by using many means to do so.  But Kilo 302 brings up a valid point.  Handguns are made to kill people.  There is no other valid purpose for handguns, other than target competition.  They are made to...

Interesting... a flaw though.  "When the tank commander feels he is in a dangerous area, he simply switches on the current to the inner plate." Unless he's Spiderman, there are going to be a lot of times where a dangerous situation explodes out of nowhere.

Caesar, Your on the money with the Americano, I just don't like that it costs twice as much as the drip coffee.  But that being said, there sure is a big difference in the roasts that you can get from day to day.  I drink Starbucks French roast at home.... as a matter of fact, I'm going to have...

Starbucks Sumatra, dark roast, one sugar.  Anything else is just taking away from the coffee...

I have to be honest, I have used Hatch gloves (currently using the Operator shorty) for my eight years in the RCMP.  They are great, but I am considering switching to Blackhawks.  It just seems to me that my Hatch gloves wear out too fast for the coin I spend on them.  I have heard these...

Bogle can kiss my (fill in whatever you like). :mg:

What about Judges having to run for election, like they do in the US?  I think that may put more pressure on them to take into account public opinion when convicting some of our repeat offenders.

Well, said kcdist.  Although problems like this come from all sorts of community types.  While I'll admit that I am ignorant to the social climate particular to TO, I do come across people regulalry that say "Why aren't the Police doing something about these problems?"  My answer to that is that...

3rd Herd Recceguy is right.  I'm just pointing out that we have problems everywhere, not just in the LMD.  And I wouldn't be surprised at the amount of guns you have come across.  I come across them pretty regularly myself.

3rd Herd... poor attitude.  There have been 57 gun related deaths in Toronto this year.  One of them was a guy killed at a FUNERAL of another young lad killed by gunfire.  Lets not turn this into an east/west, who has the bigger problem thing.  Gun violence is a problem everywhere.

Dog.. I know of two RCMP members who lost their lower legs (not both, one each) that were able to continue regular duty after being fitted with prosthetics.  But that being said, they were able to meet the physical requirements of the job.  I don't see an infanteer losing his lower leg and going...

One of those wounded was an off duty Police Officer.  Why in Canada are off duty Police Officers not allowed to carry a firearm off duty?  That may have at least stopped this poor girl from being killed.

And on a side note, the Lower Mainland here in BC has had five shooting incidents in the last four days.  Thank God nobody has been killed yet.  But no doubt, in major urban centre's, gun violence is on the rise.

ArmyRick, It like we said, it's a tough job.  We get the same racist crap out here, but with First Nations's people.  "You are just doing this because I am native."  "No, I am doing this because you beat up your wife in a drunken rage."  But I do agree that going on strike is ill advised for a...

I have to disagree recceguy, read Kat's last post.  It was civil up until then.  I'm simply pointing out that if you are taught to maintain a weapon a certain way, then do it that way.  That being said, I don't use CLP on my service pistol, I use a cleaning product made by Kleen-Bore.  But it IS...

Kat, So am I to understand from your post that the current way of cleaning the C-7 THAT IS TAUGHT, is just a half-assed way of doing it, and once you graduate, that there are better ways?!?  That's just stupid.  If there was a better and PROPER way of cleaning the weapon, I'm sure the CF and...
