My question--Why are these big companies pandering to Mil & LE departments in Canada? These same agencies work against the legit gun community all the time.
"Pandering" - hardly
"...all the time" - Drama much? LOL
You're dead wrong about that brother. We're not the enemy at all.
Lots of firearms owners in the Mil and LEO community.
If asked (and it's true) I've taken guns from folks - BAD FOLKS.
Good folks are good to go IMHO
I think that a lot of gun activists are very anti-police, or even anti-government (it's tough for me to get behind anarchists, freemen, and the like). These guys seem to be the most outspoken about Police and are active on forums, posting videos (YouTube, LiveLeak, etc). These same people seem to be drawn to firearms like a fly to poo.
The thousands of positive interactions the public has with police never seems to merit posting to these same websites. Nor does it merit comment when cops interact with a firearm owner, who's maybe tried to be law abiding but made an error, with discretion (good citizen gets a wee bit of slack)
No cop wake ups and says "I'm going to ruin someone's day and be a jerk."
We usually give what we get and have a good eye for fairness. We do however make mistakes sometimes... Like anyone.
We're not the enemy. Some firearms owners are their worst enemy.
