Swiss Arms - Class action lawsuit

Petition signature 845. I don't own a Swiss Arms but want to help fight this. I will write letters to my MP and Mr. Stephen Harper, as well as donate to help pay for legal costs.

NavyCuda you are right, if we let those bastards get away with this it will be no time until we are all down to single shot rifles.
 
Just signed the petition. Number 813.

So just to get this straight. The RCMP is saying they didn't do their job of classifying the Black Special etc correctly a decade ago and they are rectifying that now by prohibiting them and don't want compensate current owners for their blunder. Hmmm. It seems that someone is really stretching the boundaries of common sense here. Compensation is a moot point in my opinion since there is no just cause for removal in the first place. I would love to see some stats that show how many of these rifles were used in the committing of a crime. I suspect zero. I wonder what they hope to save us civilians from by doing this? Also, how do they hope to collect all these previously non restricted rifles? The long gun registry was supposed to be destroyed with all the records on non restricted. The first challenge I would make if a current owner received a notice is how they came upon the information in the first place.

The next challenge I see is getting enough firearm owners to actually rebel against this decision. Sad to say, but I talked to two different shotgun shooters who couldn't care because it didn't effect them and they have no use for a "military style firearm". Safe to say I gave them my opinion about their narrow minded attitude. I believe it will be an uphill battle to make this a serious issue if even firearm owners are ambivalent to this issue. As a movement I think we might have to focus on this being a prohibiting of private property without just cause and hope that resonates with public.

What a bloody gongshow they have started
 
Our cops are out of control - and if they are going to pull this kind of crap I'll be goddamned if I will support or help them in any way. This is bullchit.

I'm sorry boys, but this is what we get for going along to get along. We should be swamping the local police chiefs with hate mail too.
 
I am a non owner and want to help also. Doesn't take a high iq to see what's going on here. Swiss arms today something else tomorrow so on and so on.
 
It doesnt matter if the swiss arms line is something you like, dont like or would ever consider owning, as firearm owners it is our responsibility to stick together and resist this.
 
Petition signed - up to 1,066! An excellent rate! Circulate to everyine you know. These petitions have achieved results in all sorts of issues. Let's get it to 10,000... or 100,000.
 
I hope ALL the SAN owners affected by this come forward and sign up as part of the CAS! As grumpy said it\s really time we get more active. The NRA didn't get noticed by taking it laying down.. they stood up and fought back!
 
We won't have anyone to blame but ourselves -- the firearm enthusiast community -- if this goes down without a big fight. This will set a very bad precedent if it is allowed to stand (property confiscated, no copensation). Unfortunately not the first time, but let's make it the last. I don't care if you are a shotgunner, rifle shooter, pistol jockey or paper puncher -- this erodes everyones rights and privileges. This is a powerful reason to mobilize, this is a good fight, if you like shooting get onside!
