When you abolish a Registry, Cops get killed. - Moncton shooting.

How would the registry stopped this?

Seedy alluded to it in a different thread.

If a guy's acting a little nutty, then he goes and buys a gun, you can cross reference the sale and the nuttiness.  Then, presumably, you take the gun back or your throw him in the skull ranch.

Define nutty. Who makes that determination? How much nutty is too nutty?

At least it was just cops that got shot.

CdM incomming in 5 ... 4 ... 3 ...

We all know sbr is a Martinus cunt clone.  No surprises there.

Death Panels.

Guy is still on the run.

That whole town is on lock-down. What a horrible situation.

Maybe not the best way for him to have put it, but would you have preferred civilian casualties?

It's ok when cops or soldiers die because it is part of the plan.

Nobody panics when things go "according to plan." Even if the plan is horrifying! If, tomorrow, I tell the press that, like, a gang banger will get shot, or a truckload of soldiers will be blown up, nobody panics, because it's all "part of the plan."

Sounds reasonable.  Do you have a newsletter?

The New Brunswick RCMP have confirmed that three officers have been killed and two have been wounded in a shooting in Moncton, N.B.

A police manhunt is still underway for Justin Bourque, 24, after at least two people were shot. The RCMP say Bourque is considered "armed and dangerous."

"There is an active shooter in the Moncton area. We're asking residents to stay in their homes and lock their doors," said Rogers-Marsh.



At 10:05 p.m. AT RCMP said the shooter was near the Costco.

The Horizon Health Network has confirmed on Twitter that the Moncton Hospital has received two patients with gunshot wounds. The hospital is restricting visitors to those with "critically ill family members."

The RCMP are advising people in the Hildegard Drive and Ryan Road area to stay inside "due to an ongoing shooting in the area."

The RCMP tweeted at 9:35 p.m. that the shooter is believed to be in the woods near Pinehurst Park.

Motorists were warned to avoid the Plaza Boulevard area.

Parts of Wheeler Boulevard are cordoned off and traffic on Mountain Road is backed up.

A police helicopter is flying in the area.

There is a picture of the shooter on the linked page.

The registry has been abolished for hunting rifles only.  The guy has a semi-automatic, something likely on the restricted access list, for wich there is registry and you can't just buy at your local Wal-Mart.

Also given that the registry was officially abolished last year, when the Feds destroyed all the data, except for Quebec, it is likely, if it is hunting rifle, that it was bought legally and registered as per the laws of the time.

EDIT:
Ok, the sale appears to be legal, so long as you have the proper license:

Wich means, the gun and its owner are registered.  People say it's either a M14 or M305.  M14 is prohibited since 1992, M305 is legal to own, provided you have your PAC.

If I had ten billion dollars, one of the things I'd do is offer to fund firearms for liberals and the training to use them in both individual and small unit situations.

I would have thought you would fund the teaching of the Communist Manifesto in public schools to "show that it is true".  At least that is the sort of thing I heard Billionaires in the States do these days - although with other works.

This was my point, but I intentionally worded it as badly as I could just to be a dick.

I am no fan of cops, but I am sad to hear this news and wish the best for their coworkers, friends and families.

What about troika situations?

If I had ten billion dollars, I would make sure no one knows about it.
