You may recall stories of recent gun grabbing in High River Alberta last month when they had those major floods and I had posted the story of how the RCMP went into people's houses and confiscated several firearms and how they did the same thing in New Orleans after Katrina
The RCMP say that they were only taken because they were not secured properly and "in plain view" to be stored for safekeeping and the whole 9 yards but reporters from Sun News here in Canada say it is complete BULLSHIT because "we know the police actually broke blocks to get into cupboards to find out guns were there" one resident Cam Fleury says he was targeted, since his house since on a high point and was not affected by the floods and there is video from a Sun News report showing this and how the RCMP is refusing to answer basic questions like how many firearms did they take and were they in locked cabinets and etc..
And what is even more disturbing according to Sun News Reporter Faith Goldy, who has been covering this, is the information the RCMP was able to get like serial numbers, addresses and is basically a back door gun grab. There is no way to justify going into people's house and taking their stuff without a warrant as it is in the Constitution of Canada(see Charter of Rights and Freedoms) to me this was nothing more than a power grab and to take advantage of the victims of the flood in this sick way what is worse these were guns owned by law abiding citizens too.
It only illustrates how government can use a tragedy like this and use it to put in draconian powers to basically piss on our rights..
