What disgusts me a lot, what’s the game plan with these moronic reporters, convince the public to focus more on law abiding guns owners and keep having gang members operate with no resistance since all the money and police effort will be dealing with farmers??

Like they want Canada to fail

As much as it may anger people here for me to say it: It’s often just simple ignorance mixed with the visceral reaction shootings create. I honestly don’t blame the uninitiated and don’t necessarily think that the media has some hidden agenda. I just think it’s natural to fear the things you don’t understand.

This excludes poly and other similar groups, where they clearly have an agenda and are outright intentionally misrepresenting the facts to align the narrative with a specific worldview. Even this comes from trauma and prejudice. Though this doesn’t make it right.
