CCFR Firearms Owners March on 12Sep20 in Ottawa

Both CTV and Global briefly mentioned it, in the context of Covid, noting “roughly half” of the attendees did not wear a mask. Dr. Tam got more airtime saying these were the sorts of things that would drive tightening restrictions if it got too out of hand. I’ve got to say, this was one of the first things I thought of with the rally...what would the mask situation be? Whether we agree masks are good or not does not matter in the slightest; the media play so far is leaning towards the “law abiding” gun owners held a rally and were so inconsiderate of the laws they didn’t wear masks....
There WILL be political hay made with that...

The PPS dudes were for the most part not wearing masks either. As for the crowd, I was actually surprised by how many were wearing them.

I cringed seeing them too. If anyone is going to misrepresent us, it is people who see those guys and don't see the rest of us. No shame felt.

My 14 years son said the same thing.....I told him they were probably #### disturbers and probably some antis trying to make us look bad. Why the hell would anyone do that, are they stupid or what ?

"Pro-gun activists march on Parliament Hill, speak out against assault weapon ban"

Even the title is wrong...

Who can't be against that ?

"Assault rifles (weapon)" have already been banned for decades...

Someone failed at explaining them the ban was not aimed at "assault weapon" but at firearms in general.

Explaining that really would have been a mistake.

There is no firearm that is not appropriate for Canadians to have.

Anyone who believes there is, is simply part of the problem.

As long as the idiots among us agree with the government that some firearm is unsuitable, the government will continue with their plan to ban them all.

Its about public perception... you know the people that we are trying to get on our side...

Those "boogaloo boys" had the energy to show up. We're fighting a battle against impossible odds and you're crapping on people who show to support the cause? Shame on you.

You have to understand where he is coming from.

The boogs don’t fit his narrative.

The one where he whines, “I’m a nice boy, my guns are nice guns, I play nice games with them, please don’t pick on me.”

You don’t get people on your side, and keep them there, by BSing them.

Just read every article I could find on it. This will all be swept under the rug and forgot about tomorrow.

I can’t help but read this is about me. The internet goes undefeated yet again. That’s exactly it isn’t it? My good boy narrative. Can’t wait to tell the hoes I’ve changed.

To those of you reading this that didn’t make it, SHAME.

Not sure where you're coming from with this. I'm afraid I don't feel any shame for not making it out there from Prince George BC - that's just too long a drive for most people.
But I guess if there's a march in Vancouver we'll see you there?
