Without the LGR how will they be able to find the owners?

Some people are saying that the RCMP has actually kept the data, with allegations that the High River Gun Grab was based on that information.

u/Styrak Feb 27 '14

If they kept the information, which is highly unlikely because it was supposed to be destroyed, by now it would be so inaccurate and so obsolete it would be useless.

u/Jobbo_Fett Surplus Lover Feb 27 '14

Unless a person moved. The guns may not be there but the people will be.

u/Styrak Feb 27 '14

What do you mean? If guns have been traded and sold around (which they have been), the registry information is useless.

2

u/Jobbo_Fett Surplus Lover Feb 27 '14

But they still searched a bunch of those houses despite the fact that their may or may not be any guns anymore.

u/Styrak Feb 27 '14

Oh you mean the High River stuff? That was completely different because everyone was evacuated. Different circumstances. I'm talking about the current issue with the Swiss (or any other gun they want to grab which is non-restricted).

There is currently a lawsuit spooling up from the NFA (or CSSA) that claims to have about a dozen instances of recent LGR data usage and they are going to court to prove it.

Those people are retarded. No way in hell they'd expose themselves to that much risk.

Where do you come up with this absolute bullshit?

Woah, I must've pulled this entire video out of my ass. And Solomon Friedman is on my pay roll

Oh holy fuck, another video about the same topic. Solomon Friedman and I are bed buddies, but he'll deny those allegations in court ;)

u/OxfordTheCat Feb 27 '14

Oh, well, if Solomon Friedman said it, it must be true...

He doesn't have an agenda at all..

u/Jobbo_Fett Surplus Lover Feb 27 '14

And yet, I still haven't seen a single link, post, article, video, blog, vlog, message or other object that would try to prove him wrong.

u/OxfordTheCat Feb 27 '14 edited Feb 27 '14

... you mean aside from all the numerous government statements, news articles, television pieces, and even court cases regarding the destruction of the data, and the confirmation of such?

Hardly any coverage at all, what when compared to an iron clad source such as a Youtube video and a guest spot on an Sun News opinion segment.

"Firearms advocate and lawyer who makes his living from firearms related issues seeks continued publicity, and makes reactionary claims about firearms on television network notorious for hosting reactionary claims! Film at 11"

u/Jobbo_Fett Surplus Lover Feb 27 '14

And yet I still haven't received a link from you, which makes it very hard for you to support your claim with actual evidence. And at this point, you're starting to look very silly.

I'm surprised you didn't have time to find it yourself, but you were probably busy refreshing 4chan looking for more gifs.

Here you go

Take as much time as you like.

u/Jobbo_Fett Surplus Lover Feb 27 '14

I couldn't take all the time I needed, google was going too fast. Do you have any other pretentious mouth-breathing to effect towards your monitor today or are you done for now?

u/OxfordTheCat Feb 27 '14

I'm not exactly sure what your end game is:

You're demonstrably wrong, and yet all you do is post gifs and go with personal attacks.

I'm confused: What are you trying to achieve by being a jackass?

I'm not even bothering with this one.

You're a wing nut.

Here, I saved this one just for you

u/mwmwmwmwmmdw Feb 27 '14

dont worry about it him and oxfordthedouche are well know for trolling this sub and only seem to show up in the political threads to act smug and accrue downvotes

u/Jobbo_Fett Surplus Lover Feb 27 '14

We've been over Oxfordtheasshat and Adipleasegivemeattention before, and I might as well give them a piece of their medicine. Because, after all, trolling is a cry for help.

u/OxfordTheCat Feb 27 '14

You do realize that people having an opinion that differs from yours isn't trolling, but what you are doing in this thread is, right?

2

u/Jobbo_Fett Surplus Lover Feb 27 '14

You do realize that AdiposeFin has said some of the dumbest things ever recorded on this sub-reddit and is subject to comparison with trolling, right?

u/mwmwmwmwmmdw Feb 27 '14

thats fine. but you dont need to smear on a thick layer of smug while doing it

u/[deleted] Feb 27 '14

Christ on a crutch... you're trying to cite Sun Media.
Done. Ignored. Goodbye.

u/NozE8 west coast Feb 27 '14

Wo easy there. I've seen a number of people comment how the RCMP were targeting specific houses and skipping others in High River. From that people were drawing conclusions that the RCMP must have had some kind of information.

Take from that what you will. I wasn't there so I can't say with certainty what happened. But I do know that the RCMP weren't very happy to give up the LGR.

u/Jobbo_Fett Surplus Lover Feb 27 '14

See my post below this

u/diablo_man Feb 27 '14

That would be easy enough to do with PAL/RPAL info. I havent seen any evidence conclusively pointing towards use of the registry in that particular case.

u/[deleted] Feb 27 '14

From that people were drawing conclusions

So they were making up bullshit? Pulling it out of their ass?

Notice how Sun Media doesn't want to talk about the people who BROUGHT their guns to the RCMP for safe storage? How the RCMP wanted to rent a shipping container to store them all? TheCBC reported it. Why not Sun Media?

Of that's right, because they they wouldn't be able to pollute the airwaves with more of their bullshit made up from bullshit told to them by bullshitters?

Ok to play devil's advocate: What does that have to do with any wrongdoing the RCMP may or may not have done?
