If they outlaw guns, only outlaws will have guns... Truer words have never been spoken.
I for one, believe that in Canada, an apparently "free" nation, that I should have the right to carry a firearm. Our left wing government sees otherwise.
I know far too many law enforcement officers that could barely hit a barndoor with a bucket of s**t, let alone with a pistol bullet. These are the same guys who are supposed to protect us, yet show up after the carnage to mop up the scene... Not their fault afterall, every time they pull their gun a pile of paperwork results. As long as they qualify once per year on the range they get a bye and its off for another year. On the same token, I know many responsible target shooters who ply their hobby on a weekly basis. ask me who'd I'd rather have my back and its real easy.
Considering the fact that this firm is offering to train teachers in excess of what law enforcement personnel receive, I say bravo. Its about time someone steps to the plate by being "proactive". Unfortunately today our society has to stoop to such measures. If you recall the last US massacre, there were "no guns allowed on campus". How many dead was that again???
I know one thing for sure. In light of the most recent car jackings in Toronto, those punks may have thought twice about their victims if the idea of armed resistance was possible. Same goes for many US States where law abiding citizens can carry a weapon. The stats are out there; in states where concealed weapon carry is legal the trend leans in favour of the victim...I for one would be happy to know that someone has the security of my kids in mind.
