Gun trafficking in Athabasca
An article in the Edmonton Journal, yesterday, I think it was, mentioned a young Athabasca man charged with gun trafficking. Kinda scary when it is that close to home. Not sure how to link the article, so hopefully someone with more smarts than me could do that? Oh yeah, and send a copy to those morons trying to change the gun laws. Not that it is likely to change anything, but one can hope a little common sense may find it's way there...... Thanks.

Even if there was the will to deal with criminals nothing would change because they have nowhere to incarcerate them. The jails are overfull so they hand out 'get out of jail free' cards like they were candy. We have a crime problem simply because there is nothing to discourage criminals from being criminals.

Reduce the sentence terms, but make them hard labor, no TV. no gym, no internet, put an end to club fed. Five years of hard labor will likely be a larger deterrent than ten years in club fed.

Anyone else happen to recognize Global's upswing in these types of articles. Some they in fact held onto for weeks so they could lump them more or less together?
Well...
And there it is. Global's AGENDA exposed. Knew it...
‘We don’t need them in Canada’: Poll finds 6 in 10 Canadians want ban on handguns, assault weapons

Sometimes the need for that tinfoil is actually real...

We don't need more laws we need less. What we need are laws to punish criminals notmake criminals out of legal gun owners. All you here now days isfor people wanting more government control on our lives.

Yup they are looking for those Liberal government handouts. They didn’t happen to mention the other two polls that contradict that poll did they.
