They tried to pull off a citizens arrest on police officers

Mayor of Peterborough officialy named them Fuckwads.

And yet they are not a firearm

point one at a cop and get back to us.

Okay, so I was wrong

Edit: it doesn’t even state that it should be close to usable, just that it resembles closely enough. So I admit to being wrong but now I don’t understand your point of it being almost a firearm

That will probably end bad even if it was a banana pointed at a cop

If it looks like a real gun, it’s pretty much exactly as effective for commiting crimes as a real unloaded gun. There’s very few legitimate reasons to have a replica firearm and they are highly regulated. Anyone with a criminal record would not be able to get a license for prohibited firearms.

One of the largest markets for replicas is the entertainment industry. Which uses squibs, blanks or other methods to make it look like they were fired. Which without modification can cause serious injury or death.

Having a pistol that can fire a low charge blank doesn’t need a fully hardened barrel, which on some is easily replaced. As an example.

There is also the ability to make someone think you are holding a firearm that could cause them harm (easy if the person isn’t infantry qualified), especially during a robbery.

These people didn’t have them to put them in a shadow box, they had them to appear more dangerous, which can push them into the terrorist designation.

Lol, fuck off.

You should probably actually read that.

Hey look who is intentionally misrepresenting this to spin a narrative.

Edit: From the RCMP THEMSELVES: Replica firearms are prohibited devices in Canada.

Go sit on a barrel cactus.

That all you have? Seriously…

Edit: Replicas aren’t toys and assertions otherwise is disinformation

Brother, cops will shoot a child holding a the yellow piece of plastic with a big red button at the end. That ain’t the argument you think it is.

Did you?

Sure, because US states with high rates of incarceration have less crime? Let’s do the same thing over and expect a different result.

She had 20,000 at one point. That’s a lot of Fuckwads.

Read it closer, halfwit

Hey man, this is an incredibly weird thing to go after and be wrong about.

I think we can all agree that we’re glad it’s not your standards that the rest of us need to appeal to.

It’s all good, I understand most people in the world hold garbage views. It’s why the current state of things is so bad after all.

Well, luckily he has no jurisdiction in Canada.
