King of the Canadian Boogaloo....

[HerrBrauckmann]

The “Boogaloo” while mostly a silly meme, is absolutely a real movement. It is filled with a lot of people, many of which advocate for a society completely free from government control and are willing to fight for their liberties. You also mention that gun owners in Canada do not have an anti-government mentality. To me it seems like you’re trying distance yourself from those wish to see our oppressors done away with. Care to explain?

[aecmcfarlane]

"Our oppressors"? Holy geez guy, give your balls a tug! Go and spend some time in China or Russia and then come back and whine about "our oppressors" (if they let you)!

[CanadArms 1867]

Simply put:

• People who disagree with the Government on a policy or law are NOT “Anti-Government” or “anti-statist”;
• People who believe in preparing for emergencies and contingencies are NOT “extremists”, and;
• People who own firearms are NOT any combination of the above.

Boy oh boy. It takes a special kind of ignorance from a journalist to paint one side as anti-police/anti-govt, in the midst of the sort of messages I've been seeing on social media from my left-leaning friends. There's been a lot more violence threatened toward police from their accounts than I've seen here on CGN. Ever.

Heck, I've seen people tell their friends to unfollow them "and eff right off" if:
"You support or work in law enforcement. You think there's something wrong with protesting and looting." Etc etc

But yeah, we're the unreasonable animals.

I have to agree with you about the far left being entirely unhinged, and not only that, but it seems that the moderate left (if there is any remaining) seems unwilling to engage them and take exception to their lunacy. I'm sure they don't want to be bullied and doxxed.

I have a lefty moonbat niece in her early 20's who came out of the closet about 2 years ago and has now gone full-blown SJW. A while ago she posted about violence being a good tool to bring about change and I took exception, everyone else was complete crickets on the matter, that or were making me out to be the bad guy. I thought it was ironic, considering that I'm the lone one with firearms and am the only one who would speak up against her endorsing violence.

I now have a much greater understanding of the Salem witch hunts, from the 'witches' perspective.

I'd be more worried about a group of reprobates who think looting and arson are legitimate means of protest. These people are literally tearing the USA apart and CBC is hypothesizing on the possible tendencies of a ill defined group of people critical and warry of the government???

Heres a Canadian gem who co-founded BLM Toronto who is applauded for calling white people "subhuman" "genetics defects" and prays to Allah for the strength not the slap or kill the white people that she has to interact with each day. Ms. Khogali is well funded and well protected by the media.

Could you imagine the outrage if the sporting firearm community targeted a specific group of people, dehumanized them and gave our members moral license to hurt them? Holy balls the media is bloody evil.

Listen guys, there's a lot of people on here who have got to pull their heads out of their derrieres. We may not think our government is perfect, but it's a long way from being oppressive. Yes, I know that we don't like the OIC and the gun laws, but that's not enough to whine and complain that they're out to get us and go on about democracy (actually, given the polls, democracy doesn't help us on the OIC front, ok?) We live in a free country that most of the rest of the world can only look at with envy. I'm not interested in all of this tin-foil hat crap about the main-stream media this and the conspiracy of that - I'm from Northern Ontario and I know bull#### when I see it (and can also think for myself) and all of this malarkey I see on here is getting on my nerves. Give your balls a tug and start looking around you - we live in a damned good place and all of us can have a say in how it is run. If you don't like it, tell your MP, tell your friends, write op-eds (pay attention to your grammar!), make a difference - that is how democracy works, not by some pathetic middle-aged white guys howling from their basements with anonymous handles. Get involved! Talk to people! And if our ideas don't win out, then accept it - because ultimately that is what our grandfathers and great-uncles fought for 75 years ago. And shame on anyone who thinks differently - they're not real Canadians.

Way to go mate. Amazing insight - eat the crap and celebrate living here. How about this, explain why the OIC is needed and why those affected should smile and eat the crap pie?

There is no Democracy in Canada!..... This country is run by a dictator that admires the China regime......

Give your head a long hard shake my friend, the Liberals will eventually disarm all Canadians, the turd already has stifled free speech by paying the news media $142,000.00 per week to spew his lies and BS. He does not allow real news, only censored Liberal crap, this is being free?

So we are all crazy and you only are correct? You may want to tug on your own n@ds.

This.

Democracy can sometimes be "2 wolves and a lamb voting on what to eat for dinner" (you know the rest)

When you force feed BS and false narratives to the Canadian public through the media then Democracy can become oppressive. Lots of ethnic cleansing, displacement and garden variety oppression took place the world over with the blessing of the majority.

The amount of "western separation" and "Canada sucks" talk going on at job sites and the office is simply staggering. This country is in real trouble and I don't know how it could be fixed. Those of you saying canada is great have a very nice pair of rose tinted goggles on. My grandfather did not fight in ww2 to have the police defunded, lazy people collecting cerb that don't deserve it and sjw blocking pipelines and trains.
