Yep, keep it civil and don’t make enemies of those who agree with you. This OIC was unjust, arbitrary, and the details are secret making it nearly impossible to use, sell, transport our legally acquired firearms. Do not fall into the trap of doing things that can be used to justify this ‘assault weapons’ ban.
I know RCMP members who are frustrated they can’t take their personally owned firearm affected by the ban to the range for some target practice. Let’s not forget that there are Members who have been or will be transferred since this ban came down but cannot move with their newly prohibited firearm. Since no details on a buyback or a grandfathering program have been announced they are in legal limbo. Through incompetence or malice, this ban turns legal firearms owners into criminals. Let’s not help them succeed.
It took 156 posts in this thread for someone to ask this and then it got drowned out in all of the background noise. People are understandably worked up over this. I also would like ATRS to come back to this thread and confirm that this is confirmed or at least credible information and not just based on speculation or hearsay.
No one suggested that they would benefit. But emotions are high right now and we're all a little twitchy. People, all people, can post something with very good intentions that it not well thought out. A warning to being careful is always a good thing, I completely agree. But an accusation that there is an active sting operation taking place is a pretty big bombshell to drop if there is no confirmation or at the very least a credible source. It is not out of line to ask for a little background on this warning before losing our heads over it.
I’ve had some suspect pms wouldn’t surprise me
I started this thread for the purpose of sharing some information that came our way, NOT to open up a thread for cop bashing! In retrospect I should have closed the thread on the 1st post rather than having to spend time deleting over a hundred posts.
The info I shared with this post is valid, I do not make accusations or post warnings on a whim.
