In this episode of the Krusty Kinect Podcast, I discuss the recent mass shooting in Aurora, Colorado, and how it shows just how dangerous some people can be when it comes to guns. I also discuss Bill Blair and the liberal platform of the upcoming election campaign.
00:01:05.980Just like a van can be bad in the hands of a crazy man.
00:01:10.580Or a rider truck can be bad in the hands of a crazy man or woman.
00:01:14.840Or whoever gets caught rampaging through people, like a couple individuals did the past few years.
00:01:20.520One stinky kid in Edmonton and one self-proclaimed incel in Toronto.
00:01:27.280But I will leave you the links eventually to look that up.
00:01:32.380But, yeah, it just goes to prove how dangerous some people can be.
00:01:35.860Now, Mr. Bill Blair, Mr. Minister of Organized Crime or whatever his title was,
00:01:40.960I'll leave a link for his work, or supposed body of work.
00:01:46.680I don't think he's done much, ladies and gentlemen, in regards to securing or, you know, stopping organized crime.
00:01:53.100But it's funny how, you know, we're in the midst of an election.
00:01:55.960And we're trying to keep things safe and secure.
00:02:00.160And all these other politicians have had these numerous platforms in regards to guns and what's going on with our security in this country.
00:02:07.680Now, I remember far back in the 90s when the liberals sat there and talked about the whole long gun registry issue
00:02:17.680and how many billions of dollars were wasted in making sure that more and more people were getting better qualifications in the name of safety.
00:02:28.020And that's when the R. Powell and Powell came into effect, where you had to take some training courses
00:02:33.120and make sure you understood the pros and cons of rifle and pistol safety
00:02:37.680and what to do and what not to do and how to store it, how to transport.
00:02:41.780And I had to call the Canadian taxpayer quite a bit of money back in the 90s just for registration alone.
00:02:47.280Now, I understand the sense of public safety. I do.
00:02:50.780But I'm a gun owner, and I keep my guns locked up.
00:02:54.200And I'm more than qualified to shoot them at a range or to go hunting with them.
00:02:59.740And this is training that I received in the military that gave me a proper insight on gun safety, right?
00:03:08.520And basically showed me the pros and cons of using a firearm effectively and safely.
00:03:15.260And I, too, have taught soldiers how to use said firearms safely.
00:03:20.600But unfortunately, we have politicians and elected officials and so-called appointees and experts, quote-unquote,
00:04:19.260Canadian communities are fundamentally safe and peaceful places to work and play.
00:04:23.260But that doesn't mean there isn't more work to do.
00:04:25.440We will continue to move forward with the things that keep Canadians safe today as we build a safer and more secure world for our children and grandchildren.
00:04:32.180Now, this is from the liberal platform page of their election campaign.
00:04:38.000And the hiding itself, like I say, again, it's page 38.
00:04:41.300And the heading is Keeping Canadians Safe.
00:06:28.020And I'm not really familiar with a lot of American gun laws, but I know in some states, you can carry a 30-round magazine with no implications.
00:06:38.460Overseas, our rifles consisted of semi-auto and automatic fire.
00:06:43.340That's because they were military rifles.
00:06:46.280You know, they weren't called assault weapons.
00:06:49.440Now, there are variants, many companies, many jurisdictions, correction, many manufacturers, many companies that have the same mechanism of semi-auto as some government rifles do.
00:07:04.540The RCMP and most police forces carry a C-8 carbine or a carbine based on the AR-15 model.
00:07:11.900They have the capacity to fire more than five rounds.
00:07:15.220They are authorized to have more than five rounds in their magazines, while us civilians are not.
00:07:23.240So, if you're worried about assault rifles, worry about that.
00:07:26.860But I'm not saying the police are a threat, nor am I saying an AR-15 is a threat.
00:07:33.040I'm saying the lack of common sense and approach to a gun issue is a threat.
00:07:41.360Gun crime is on the rise, and often people are killed and injured because criminals have used military-style assault rifles.
00:07:47.540These guns are designed to inflict mass casualties that have no place in Canada.
00:07:51.280Canadians are tired of excuses and know that thoughts and prayers do not make our communities any safer.
00:07:56.980Unlike conservatives who want to weaken Canada's gun laws, we will make gun laws stronger.
00:08:00.880We will move forward with a ban of all military-style assault rifles, including the AR-15, and we'll take other steps to keep people safe from gun violence,
00:08:09.700including introducing a buyback problem from all the military-style assault rifles legally purchased in Canada,
00:08:14.920with fair market prices for owners and more resources for law enforcement to administer said program.
00:08:20.380Working with provinces and territories to give municipalities the ability to further restrict and or ban handguns,
00:08:25.880and protecting the rights of hunters and farmers by not bringing back the long gun registry.
00:08:31.420Hunters and farmers do not use or need assault weapons.
00:08:34.780Okay, I just said, you're only allowed a capacity of five rounds in any kind of semi-automatic format.
00:08:43.460It doesn't matter if it's an old-style, it doesn't matter if it looks like a .22, or it's a .30-odd-6, or a .556, or .223, or .308.
00:08:54.960You're only allowed five rounds capacity in any kind of semi-automatic rifle.
00:09:02.540And in a pistol, you're only allowed ten in a semi-automatic format.
00:09:08.520That's been in the book since the 90s, ladies and gentlemen.
00:09:11.260So to these liberal crackpots who are sitting there promoting their party's proletariat,
00:09:16.720shame on them for not knowing any better.
