Recurring Canadaguns Politics and Debate Thread

Please post all your Gun Politics or Ban-related ideas, questions, initiatives, comments, suggestions, news articles, and recommendations in this thread. This thread recurs every 14 days.

First and foremost, this is a Canadian Gun subreddit, so keep it at least decently related to both of those things.

This thread is not for general politics, there are plenty other subs that are meant for that. Off-topic threads may be removed, especially if they are leading to personal attacks, flame wars, etc.

To prevent the main sub being flooded with dozens of similar threads, text posts complaining about/asking about/chatting about gun politics will be sent here.

We understand that politics is a touchy subject, and at times things can get heated. A reminder of the subreddit rules, when commenting, where subreddit users are expected to abide.

Keep this Canadian gun politics related and polite. Off-topic stuff, flame wars, negative generalizations against groups, personal attacks and gate-keeping will be removed. Please flag any comments to bring to the attention of mods otherwise exercise your upvoting and downvoting ability.

Always the case, why caribana has tactical teams on standby every year, gang members love to show up to these events and they’re always carrying, bump into a rival and they go wild.

Weird though….lpc have banned gun for 6 years straight and we’re still getting shootings???

Someone give Gary and his cheeks another 2 billion to solve this by harassing law abiding gun owners!!

Legal "Patrol carbine" in the hands of Officer Dave in uniform, but becomes a scary illegal "assault-rifle" in the hands of Officer Dave in civilian clothes...

The forefront guy looks big, yet that stock being at the shortest position seems so uncomfortable. Then there is the officer in the back, stock fully extended, but he looks like he's got short arms. Did they swap rifles?

Sorry random observation.

More likely to do the fact that they probably receive only 30 minutes of carbine training every year, so they're pretty ignorant in making the appropriate adjustments so that way they can shoulder it properly, if they need to use their carbine.
