Canada’s useless “Gun Control” system fails again, almost gets cop killed

Published January 31, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Canada's Firearms Act, Violent Criminals


The many failures of Canada’s “gun control” scheme are well known to anyone willing to actually look at the facts.  For those unwilling to do so, however, no amount of proof that the system doesn’t work will ever be enough. The latest proof of the uselessness and dangerousness of the current gun control scheme comes from Kamloops, British Columbia, where a convicted drug … [Read more...]

Sustainability and a Free Society Are Not Compatible

Published January 30, 2012 by Jane Gaffin Filed Under: Big Brother, Property Rights, Rights


A conservative-minded individual passes through several distinct stages before he is enveloped by the Marxist-Leninist ideology. First, he rants that the philosophy is damnable, dangerous, disorderly, counter-opposed to law and the Christian faith and is a scourge to a "free society". Next, he is brainwashed to believe he has no rights and tires of standing up for some … [Read more...]

Preserving Rights and Freedoms Against Marxist Attacks

Published January 28, 2012 by Jane Gaffin Filed Under: Guns


Freedom is the easiest thing to give away and the hardest thing to get back. Even shakier for Canadians is that personal rights have never been carved into a constitution like the rights of the American cousins, who are embroiled in the throes of fighting against their erosion, too. Canadians mostly lived under the same rights and freedoms as our neighbours by virtue of … [Read more...]

Alberta Sheriff Thomas Bounds: Taking Insensitivity to an All-New Low

Published January 27, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Abuse of Police Authority, Bureaucrat’s Rule #1, Police Misconduct


Thomas Bounds is a sheriff with the Alberta Sheriff’s Service.  He requires, at a bare minimum, a severe reprimand and retraining to learn how to act like a human being, since he clearly has no clue at the moment.  For his blatantly abusive and potentially life-threatening treatment of Bill Berry, a 52-year-old deaf and mute cancer survivor, Sheriff Thomas Bounds should really … [Read more...]

Freedom to Read What You Like? Not In Canada…

Published January 26, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Censorship, Charter of Rights and Freedoms Breaches, Freedom of Speech


If you’re a Canadian, do you believe you have the right to read whatever you like? If you do, you’re not alone, even though you are sadly and grossly mistaken. Canada, believe it or not, has a long and sordid history of banning books and magazines that some unelected and unaccountable bureaucrat has decided you should not read. You see, the Freedom to read what I like is … [Read more...]

Fredericton, NB Blogger Charles LeBlanc gains media and political support

Published January 25, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Charter of Rights and Freedoms Breaches, Freedom of Speech


Randy McKeen is a radio show host on "Fredericton's Country Station", KHJ Radio.  The other day on his segment, The Bottom Line with Randy McKeen, the radio personality came to the support of blogger Charles LeBlanc and politely ridiculed police for arresting LeBlanc. If I didn't know better, I'd say McKeen had read my recent article on Charles LeBlanc and changed a few … [Read more...]

What to do if the RCMP Calls You on the Phone About Your Firearms License

Published January 24, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Abuse of Police Authority


It has come to my attention that the RCMP may or may not be phoning people who have firearms licenses expiring within the next 12 months.  I’ve heard of at least one individual who says they have been contacted on the telephone by someone claiming to be from the RCMP and that person demanded all kinds of personal information from them. NOTE You are under NO OBLIGATION to … [Read more...]

Newsflash PETA: Human Beings are more important than animals. Deal with it.

Published January 23, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Stupid Human Tricks


PETA, or People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, is a group of animal-loving yahoos who believe that animals are more important than people.  They recently announced yet another attention-grabbing publicity stunt that proves just how ludicrous these people are. PETA is willing to abuse any program or any person if it will advance PETA’s anti-human agenda.  Their latest … [Read more...]

Charles LeBlanc: Crackpot blogger or Concerned Citizen being harassed by police?

Published January 22, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Abuse of Police Authority, Filming / Photographing Police, Freedom of Speech


This past Thursday morning, January 19th, Charles LeBlanc had eight members of the Fredericton City Police show up at his low-rent apartment.  They arrested him and seized his computer equipment, but they refused to charge him with any crime. On the surface, it doesn’t look like much.  Just some guy on welfare getting busted by police.  He obviously had it coming for some … [Read more...]

When the whims of murderers are more important than honouring their victims

Published January 20, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Justice System Abuses


The Canadian justice system leaves a lot to be desired, even on its best days.  On its worst days, it is a repulsive indictment of our apparent love for a violent serial rapist and murderer and our blatant abhorrence for honouring the memory of a precious young woman, brutally raped and stabbed dozens and dozens of times. Tara Manning was a beautiful young 15-year-old the … [Read more...]

DEA Agent Lee Paige loses case centering around his shooting himself during a gun safety demonstration

Published January 19, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Negligent Discharges, Stupid Human Tricks


Lee Paige, the DEA's poster-boy for how NOT to handle a firearm, is apparently still a Drug Enfrocement Agency (DEA) special agent stationed in Orlando, Florida, according to a report found online. You may recall the 2004 video of DEA Special Agent Lee Paige shooting himself in the leg mere seconds after claiming “I'm the only one in this room professional enough, that I … [Read more...]

NDP’s François Pilon the latest nutbar to buy into Gun Registry Lies and Deceit

Published January 18, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Canada's Firearms Act, Charter of Rights and Freedoms Breaches, Political Antics


It’s really not surprising to find more NDP hacks coming out of the woodwork crowing how the country will collapse into anarchy of the error-riddled gun registry is killed, as Conservatives plan. Clearly looking for some easy and free publicity, Pilon used the Laval Police Department chief as his crutch to stand before the usual media circus to claim “the sky is … [Read more...]

The Man Who Would Be “Rapist” shot 9 times by his would-be victim

Published January 17, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Self-Defense


This is a story that ends the way it should, with the would-be rapist filled with lead, his would-be victim standing over him, smoking gun in hand. Sadly, (NOT!) the attempted rapist died later at hospital. While the story happened last May in Gwinnett County, Georgia, it is one that bears highlighting, if for no other reason than to commend this brave woman for doing what … [Read more...]

Dead People receive ballots to vote in the New Hampshire Primaries?

Published January 16, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Elections, Politics


As bizarre as it sounds, dead people are able to vote in the primaries due to lax rules and no identification requirement. Voter fraud is an ongoing issue in America, to be sure. Helping the problem along are state rules that do NOT require a person to show any identification to prove they are who they claim to be. Evidence of this insanity was documented recently … [Read more...]

Sun TV’s Brian Lilley comprehends the issue, why can’t Public Safety Minister Vic Toews?

Published January 13, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Abuse of Police Authority, Canada's Firearms Act, Gun Politics


As most in the know in gun circles has been aware of for some time, the RCMP is demanding that owners of a specific .22 calibre rifle, the Armi Jager AP-80, turn in their rifles for destruction without compensation. This rifle that merely looks like, as Brian Lilley said on his Sun TV show Byline, "the dreaded AK-47", but has no parts in common with it and cannot be converted … [Read more...]

Merritt Staff Sergeant Stuart Seib: Reason #9 to Dump the BC RCMP

Published January 12, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: 25 Reasons To Dump The RCMP, Abuse of Police Authority, Police, Police Corruption, Police Misconduct, RCMP Accountability, RCMP Hall of Shame


Merritt, British Columbia, has the distinction of being the latest RCMP detachment run by an [alleged] criminal and also, it would appear, cocaine addict. Staff Sergeant Stuart Seib was arrested on Tuesday and charged with stealing cocaine from the RCMP lockup the following day, after he was relieved of command of the Merritt RCMP Detachment. RCMP Southeast District … [Read more...]

It’s hard to believe JPFO’s Aaron Zelman has been gone a year already!

Published January 11, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: In Memoriam -- Remembering our Heros, Self-Defense


Aaron Zelman

It’s hard to believe that a year has passed since the death of Aaron Zelman, the founder of Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership (JPFO).  It feels like the shock of that news was only delivered yesterday for me, not a year ago. I am reminded of Aaron’s passing today by Rabbi Dovid Bendory’s Yahrzeit Tribute to Aaron Zelman, which he just emailed to me and … [Read more...]

Sarah Dawn McKinley: home invasion suspect is released on bail and other stupid things

Published January 9, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Self-Defense


Sarah Dawn McKinley

As you probably recall, the other day I wrote about Sarah Dawn McKinley, the young widow whose husband died on Christmas day, and then on the day she buried him, two morons tried breaking into her home to attack her and her 3-month-old son. She did everything right, including shooting one of her attackers dead inside her front door.  The dead man’s accomplice, 29-year-old … [Read more...]

Anti-gun Joyce Foundation doles out $15 million

Published January 9, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Gun Politics


When the Joyce Foundation, a rabidly anti-gun organization, announced their winners of the Summer 2010 grants... given that Chicago is the current battle-ground for the Second Amendment's right to keep and bear arms, the following statement from the press release comes as no surprise: "The Joyce Foundation announced it is awarding 68 organizations more than $15 million in its … [Read more...]

British Columbia not the only place killer cops are kept on the payroll. Florida does too.

Published January 8, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Police, Police Brutality, RCMP Hall of Shame


I’ve written extensively about cases where RCMP members stationed in British Columbia have murdered citizens and gotten away with it.  It’s happened enough times now that most people recognize there is a very serious issue with accountability within the RCMP, or more specifically, the lack of accountability within the RCMP. This is not strictly an RCMP issue or even a BC … [Read more...]

Christy Clark’s Overblown Sense of Entitlement

Published January 7, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Political Antics


Christy Clark: BC's ditzy and unelected premier

BC’s unelected Premier, Christy Clark, has really only done one thing since she began her run for the leadership of the BC Liberal Party: campaign. She hasn’t stopped.  She’s transformed the Premier’s Office website into a grand spectacle promoting, not British Columbia, but herself. Someone gave me a copy of the Chilliwack Progress published on December 22nd, 2011 … [Read more...]

Her husband died on Christmas Day and she had to kill a home invader on New Years Eve

Published January 6, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Self-Defense


Some days criminals just don’t leave you any choice.  New Year’s Eve was precisely one of those days for Sarah Dawn McKinley of Blanchard, Oklahoma, south of Oklahoma City. Sarah’s husband died from cancer on Christmas Day, just months after their baby was born.  Obviously still grieving the loss, she was home alone on New Year’s Eve when two men decided that terrorizing a … [Read more...]

RCMP Commissioner Bob Paulson gives me hope for the RCMP

Published January 5, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: 25 Reasons To Dump The RCMP, Police Misconduct, RCMP Accountability


Yeah, it was an odd title for me to write, so don’t feel strange if it feels weird to read it!  Over the past many years there has been very little to give any of us hope when it comes to the RCMP.  Scandal after scandal has headlined every newspaper and television station across the nation; stories of RCMP members killing civilians or brutally beating them for sport, stealing … [Read more...]

The Coolest .45 Caliber Pistol Ever!

Published January 5, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Fun Gun Stuff


Human ingenuity truly knows no bounds, and this news item certainly shows that. It's a metal puzzle cube, 125 pieces in all if you can believe it, that when specific pieces from the cube are assembled properly forms a fully-functional .45 caliber single-shot pistol. And to make all the nanny-staters happy, it comes with its own lock, so you can't take the cube … [Read more...]

Mount Rainier National Park Ranger Margaret Anderson gunned down

Published January 3, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Officer Down


So much for “Happy New Year”… an Iraq war veteran goes nuts, shoots up Seattle before murdering Mount Rainier National Park Ranger and mother of two, Margaret Anderson. The facts are somewhat sketchy, but what is known is this: A park service employee tried pulling over the alleged shooter for a routine traffic stop.  That person refused to stop. Margaret Anderson … [Read more...]

Starting the New Year off Right (with a little help from Ezra Levant)

Published January 1, 2012 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Freedom of Speech


One of the best things to happen to the Canadian media landscape last year was the introduction of the Sun News Network.  Finally there was a voice that was different from any other voice on Canadian television.  What a treat for people like me and perhaps like you. So, to start the year off right, I want to give you one of Ezra Levant's best rants from last … [Read more...]
