Value Subtracted'Queen of Canada' arrested on livestream after RCMP deploy to village where cult has lived for 2 years
panda_abyssWhy did this take so long?
Hopefully whatever they’ve arrested her for is ironclad and she’s gone for good.
Presently42I assume that’s what took so long
Nope. The cops made up some bullshit about a gun to get a search warrant and all they found was some toys. They’ll all be out in the morning if they keep their mouths shut and if the cops did not find anything else they haven’t disclosed yet.
xthexderThey actually did seize several replica firearms…
Toys aren’t illegal
Replicas aren’t toys. They are often a barrel or tigger group assembly away from being a proper firearm.
And yet they are not a firearm
I’ve seen people using fireworks as firearms on the streets, there’s no sense in measuring distance from being a proper firearm, imo
And yet they are still regulated by firearm legislation…
Okay, so I was wrong
One of the largest markets for replicas is the entertainment industry. Which uses squibs, blanks or other methods to make it look like they were fired. Which without modification can cause serious injury or death.
Having a pistol that can fire a low charge blank doesn’t need a fully hardened barrel, which on some is easily replaced. As an example.
There is also the ability to make someone think you are holding a firearm that could cause them harm (easy if the person isn’t infantry qualified), especially during a robbery.
These people didn’t have them to put them in a shadow box, they had them to appear more dangerous, which can push them into the terrorist designation.
