News / Politics / Activism Garbage Journalism

Post image

Sent a message and considering emailing the journalist personally. Read the title, read the article, look at the photo. This is the kind of garbage journalism that leaves uninformed Canadians supporting Gun Grab policies. Its not just the CBC.

Caveat didn’t read article however

Transportation requirement of a non restricted firearm is simply “unloaded”. Many take a higher standard (trigger lock, case), but that’s not required.

So how about “firearm transported in compliance with the law…”

And In other non-reportable news “breaking news: a Canadian bought a double double at Timmys”…

If I had to guess, the issue is probably that she was transporting the firearm while impaired (Or at least suspected to be, according to the article), which could constitute 'careless' behaviour. It is weird they don't actually emphasize what the real problem is in the article, though, and instead just imply that it's the type of firearm that's at issue.

It’s not weird, it’s their agenda
