William (Bill) Berry is a two-time cancer survivor who is also deaf and mute. He breathes through a tube in his throat. By any scale imaginable he is a frail man but that didn't stop Alberta Sheriff Thomas Bounds from attacking Bill Berry in the Red Deer courthouse two years ago. No, the thug with a badge and a bucket-full of attitude to go with it felt justified grabbing … [Read more...]
Prince Edward Island Chief Firearms Officer Vivian Hayward is a Liar
Prince Edward Island Chief Firearms Officer Vivian Hayward, (center with her finger on the trigger) is nothing if not a fear-mongering liar. That’s right. Vivian Hayward is a liar. Unhappy with Public Safety Minister Steven Blaney’s announcement that provincial Chief Firearms Officers are about to have their wings severely clipped, Vivian Hayward decided the best defence … [Read more...]
Two-Tier Justice: One law for mere citizens… another law for Police
We all owe Canadian gun owner Daniel Balofsky a debt of gratitude. Why? He persisted all the way to the Ontario Court of Appeal so a court of law would decide whether or not the law must be abided by all; whether a court order applies only to the mere citizens of Canada or to its law-enforcement as well. The answer from the Ontario Court of Appeals is as appalling as … [Read more...]
The Canadian Charter of Approved Beliefs? I thought it was the Charter of Rights and Freedoms!
I could have sworn we mere citizens, through the Charter of Rights and Freedoms, enjoyed a quaint little notion called Freedom of Religion and that we could not be discriminated against because of our choice of religion. It appears I was mistaken. Either that or the moronic bigots at Nanaimo City Hall violated the Charter Rights of Canadians they identified as … [Read more...]
Do Canadian Judges have a Love Affair With Pedophiles?
Justice Nick Borkovich is one of the few Canadian judges I have any respect for when it comes to sentencing sex offenders. In 1993 he sentenced serial pedophile James Alfred Cooper, who committed the most heinous crimes imaginable, to 30 years in prison after telling him, “You are a lowdown, mean, despicable, evil manifestation of a human being that preys on little … [Read more...]
Father Shoots, Kills Thugs Who Kidnapped his Daughter and used her as a Human Shield During Home Invasion
The story is terrifying. A man, faced with two large black men invading his home, must choose how to deal with the thugs holding his daughter captive as a human shield. Dialing 9-1-1? Clearly not an option. The setting: St Louis, Missouri, 11pm. The 17-year-old daughter is at her car grabbing stuff to bring into the house. Two masked thugs grab her, put a gun to her … [Read more...]
Humane Society of the United States attempting to ban “traditional ammunition”
The Human Society of the United States (HSUS) and other anti-hunting groups filed a petition with the Interior Department demanding that hunting on public lands with "traditional ammunition" be banned. That would strip over 1/5 of the total land area of the United States from hunters. "We have intentionally chosen to concentrate first on banning the use of all lead … [Read more...]
MacKay’s Bill C-36 Proposes Change to Definition of “weapon” in Criminal Code
Todd Brown recently examined Justice Minister Peter MacKay's proposed Bill C-36, An Act to amend the Criminal Code in response to the Supreme Court of Canada decision in Attorney General of Canada v. Bedford. What he found scared the crap out of him. The proposed change to the criminal code definition of "weapon" is not thought out properly. It leaves Canadians open to … [Read more...]
Crown Prosecutors Drop Breach Charges Against Convicted Murderer Keith Wiens
In a move that stunned family and those following this case, as I have, Crown prosecutors dropped charges against convicted murderer Keith Wiens for breaching his bail conditions prior to his conviction for murdering Lynn Kalmring. Keith Wiens is a lowlife - a convicted murdering lowlife. At no time from the day he shot Lynn Kalmring until today has this pathetic excuse for … [Read more...]
Kansas State Rep. Jim Howell Stands With Gun Owners. Almost.
The mainstream media continues to make a mountain out of a molehill in Kansas, where a new law will take effect July 1 allowing concealed carry permit holders to carry their firearms inside the Kansas Statehouse. The usual suspects whine incessantly about the dangers of allowing mere citizens to carry firearms but Rep. Jim Howell made it very clear where he stands, and it's … [Read more...]
Negligent Discharge: Miami-Dade Police Officer’s Failure to Follow Safe Gun Handling Rules
I'm sure it's every cop's worst nightmare. Handling a firearm and it "just goes off". Except that's not what happens. A firearm doesn't "just go off". Someone puts their finger on the trigger and pulls it. Then the gun "just goes off" precisely as it is designed to do. When this happens unexpectedly it is called a negligent discharge. Someone was negligent in their attention … [Read more...]
Politically-Correct Madness: Washington Redskins Trademarks Cancelled by US Patent Office
The Washington Redskins are a football team which has operated under this name since 1932. A bunch of nanny state ninnies decreed the term "Redskins" is derogatory and the team should be stripped of its name. An article in Politico made a big deal about this, quoting such authorities as Harry Reid as if that lends legitimacy to the stripping of trademarks held by a … [Read more...]
Phil Hewkin’s Cartoon Says It All…
Phil Hewkin is an artist and a gun owner. He believes, as I do, that owning private property should not land you in prison, nor should it cost you your life savings or your family home. All three of those things happened to Ontario gunsmith Bruce Montague. Well, to be precise, the last of the three, the theft of the Montague family home using Ontario's Proceeds of Crime Act, … [Read more...]
Donna Montague Speaks Out on Criminal Case Against Her Husband
My name is Donna Montague. I am married to former Ontario gunsmith Bruce Montague. I have had Enough! I am thoroughly disgusted! It is bad enough that the news media reports inflammatory positions about Bruce without verifying their data ….. but the “JUDICIARY” is doing it too. Now that the trial is over I can speak. The search of our home: First off, there … [Read more...]
Zombie Spaceship Coming Back To Earth?
In 1978 NASA launched the International Sun-Earth Explorer-3 (ISEE-3) into orbit between the Earth and the sun. Designed to give scientists a look at "solar wind" before it reached earth, the ISEE-3 was abandoned 17 years ago by NASA. It's wandered the interior of the solar system alone ever since. From the NASA website's page on the ISEE-3: Goals: International Sun-Earth … [Read more...]
Peoria Mayor Jim Ardis Desperately Needs Thicker Skin
Peoria Mayor Jim Ardis: if you can't handle being mocked stop being a politician. Mocking and ridicule come with the territory so either get a thicker skin or get yourself a new job. Wasting police resources to harass those who oppose you is the act of a tyrant, not a mayor. Peoria Mayor Jim Ardis was so worried about a parody Twitter account with all of 50 posts and 50 … [Read more...]
Take a Wrong Turn – Go Directly to Jail
Right now Mexico is at the center of a huge controversy over their arrest and imprisonment of U.S. Marine Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi for taking a wrong turn that led him to a border crossing. The trouble with border crossings is that once you’re on the path you cannot turn around. The issue at hand is the detention in Mexico of U.S. Marine Sgt. Andrew Tahmooressi, 25, who has … [Read more...]
Degenerate sex offender Charles Mzite finds favour with BC Court of Appeal
Charles Mzite is a convicted sex offender. In 2009 his trial on 4 counts of aggravated sexual assault resulted in a conviction and a 10-year prison sentence. This depraved HIV-positive immigrant from Zimbabwe came to my attention about a year ago when his human rights complaint was tossed by BC Supreme Court Justice Harry Slade. Mzite deliberately lied to at least 4 … [Read more...]
Deadly Albino Mountain Attack Spider Terrorizes Residents!
The deadly albino mountain attack spider is a creature feared not for its size, but for its ferocious nature. It fears no man or beast alive and it has only one way of dealing with intruders in its territory. Like the words on the Claymore Mine say, "Front Towards Enemy". My mistake was not paying attention. My fear was I would pay for that mistake with my life as this … [Read more...]
Champlain Bridge: Quebec’s Entitlement Complex Strikes Again
Montreal's Champlain Bridge in is falling down. With a design described as "flawed from the outset" it's surprising the bridge stayed functional this long. Nobody argues the fact this bridge must be replaced. The only issue for Canadians, all Canadians, is who will pay for that new bridge. I cannot think of a single reason why taxpayers outside of Quebec ought to pay for … [Read more...]
Hunter Safety Training Abandoned in BC
"Hunter Safety Training Abandoned in BC" That's a more appropriate title for the misinformation piece printed in The Province newspaper titled "Seasoned hunter aghast at B.C. government's move to delay safety training for beginners". If all you read was The Province's so-called "news report" you would conclude BC dropped all hunter safety training requirements and now … [Read more...]
Moncton RCMP Shooting: Is the NFA’s wading into the fray the right thing to do?
As most already know, this past Wednesday evening saw 3 RCMP members shot dead, with more wounded. The entire city of Moncton, put on lockdown until police finally captured their intended target late Thursday, finally resumed more normal operation. Government buildings and schools closed for the manhunt reopened. Residents, prevented from returning to their homes due to … [Read more...]
Bruce Montague’s Response to Forfeiture Order
By now you must all be aware of the ruling we received from the appeal court of Ontario a couple of days ago. I am not really surprised that we lost but I am surprised that they decided to increase my punishment by also stealing my ammunition. As bad as this ruling is, our lawyers at the CCF (Canadian Constitution Foundation) found some encouraging aspects to it. There are a … [Read more...]
Gunsmith Bruce Montague, Dr. Henry Morgentaler and Abortion Law
That may seem an odd title but it will make sense shortly. The Ontario Court of Appeal released its decision in R. v. Montague, 2014 ONCA 439, in which the government's desire to seize Bruce Montague's complete firearms and ammunition collection came to its unjust conclusion. Ontario's Court of Appeal heard arguments for and against the forfeiture of over $100,000 of … [Read more...]
Civil Asset Forfeiture and the Lack of Due Process
I've written on civil asset forfeiture a lot lately and in response to my latest article, BC Civil Asset Forfeiture Office Proud to Steal From Mere Citizens, I received a email from Zoey DeGarmo asking if I would post an information graphic on my website. The infographic, created by ArrestRecords.com, goes into great detail of the abuses of civil asset forfeiture laws across … [Read more...]
Are You A Terrorist or do you simply Value Your Privacy?
In digging through some information on another subject I stumbled across a copy of the moronic information pamphlet released by the FBI, titled "Communities Against Terrorism - Potential Indicators of Terrorist Activities", in its efforts to curb terrorism by creating a cadre of informants. I'd forgotten about this pamphlet and I think a short review is in order so we all know … [Read more...]
BC Civil Asset Forfeiture Office Proud to Steal From Mere Citizens
My wife, bless her heart, cuts out articles from the newspaper for me. I'm sure she thinks she's doing me a favour, but most of the time the articles she cuts out just make my blood boil, such as the article she cut out for me the other day titled "BC Forfeiture Office Defends Its Record" by Ian Mulgrew. In Mulgrew's article the head of of BC's Civil Asset Forfeiture … [Read more...]
Why the Flood of Firearm Registration Certificates in My Mailbox?
This past week I my mailbox overflowed with firearm registration certificates for restricted firearms. I found this, to say the least, puzzling, as I've had no contact with the Canadian Firearms Centre for ages, nor had I purchased any firearms recently. After checking the registration certificates against my own restricted firearms I discovered these were not for new guns … [Read more...]
MediaMatters.org Attacks and Mocks Gun Owning Women
In a disparaging article titled "Meet the Glocker Moms", MediaMatters.org writer Alexander Zaitchik takes aim at the NRA and its female members. The National Rifle Association held their annual general meeting in Indianapolis, Indiana, and this brought on the attack against both the NRA and its female gun owners. Why attack women gun owners? According to the NRA, says the … [Read more...]
So-called Mexican “Vigilantes” secured their towns from drug cartels… only then did government step in to “help them”
The western Mexican state of Michoacan is comprised of decent, hardworking people. Fed up with drug cartel crime and murders as well as police and government inaction dealing with them, these decent, hardworking people did what any self-respecting group of citizens should: They took up arms and rid themselves of the scourge the government was too cowardly to deal with. Now … [Read more...]
