Ran a full 45 minute mission (lots of dicking around no such thing as avoiding a patrol in the group) tons of samples. Called a gat sentry off in the distance as last stratagem. Buddy ran down the hill and walked down in front of it and died, kicked. FFS

AI without proper regulation could be the downfall of humanity. Many pros, but the cons may outweigh them. Opinion.

I deleted Facebook a couple years ago. Instagram is my guilty pleasure for car reels and god damn dancing toothless. It seems like the end of my ig use is getting closer

I agree with you but what are they going to use to keep roads from being lethal in certain winter conditions?

People are supposed to be complying with that since 2020 since it’s announced. Yes 2025 is the amnesty deadline, but if people haven’t taken part now, they won’t by then.

Edit: the actual buyback program doesn’t take effect until 2025 when the amnesty period ends. So again, with having 2000 models of weapons now prohibited since 2020, has it made an impact on firearm crime rates? Another question to ask is whether the buyback program will reduce crime rates. Which if all these prohibited weapons are already locked up like fort Knox, what real difference will it make?

Well I’m being told I’m confused on the timeline. Sure by a year or so. All I’m trying to prove is: is the law in question as to whether it is actually reducing crime. I’ve asked the same question a dozen times and all I get back is hey this guy is a dumb gun nut. In retrospect I could have worded a clearer question right off the bat. No one is perfect

On May 1, 2020, the Government of Canada announced a prohibition on more than 1,500 models and variants of assault-style firearms, such as the AR-15. Since then, approximately 500 additional variants of these prohibited firearms have also been prohibited.

There is a link to what I’m talking about.

Having a conversation with internet strangers isn’t embarrassing. I stand by my original point which is: are recent amendments calling to bring your grandfather’s ww2 weapons in and get rid of them because they are deemed “assault style” actually reducing crime?

“On May 1, 2020, the Government of Canada announced a prohibition on more than 1,500 models and variants of assault-style firearms, such as the AR-15. Since then, approximately 500 additional variants of these prohibited firearms have also been prohibited.”

Is this actually reducing crime post may 1 2020? Sure you really don’t need to own a fully automatic assault rifle so I get that. Is this prohibition effective in reducing gun violence?

This makes sense. You are able to apply for a license to carry a pistol, however chief firearms officers are denying them, regardless whether you meet criteria or not. The RCMP also will not disclose how many permits for carrying a handgun they issued on a given year. Fun facts.
