SUMMARY: Canadian police, in the past few years, have killed several people who brandished realistic looking replica guns. In one case the subject was using the replica to hold-up a store. In another the subject pointed the replica at police in a realistic manner. Some replica guns shoot plastic pellets that could damage an eye.

Sounds to me like the gene pool got improved a tiny bit. I don't see a problem. If somebody is stupid enough to try to fake people out with his pretend gun, he deserves what he will eventually get.

1. Yes, it's called 'suicide-by-cop',

and then the cop has to live with it for the rest of his life.

2. Brandishing at cops is an excellent way to live a short, exciting life...

And check out the Great Beyond at the same time!;-)

3. So...

when the Canucks (and the Mexicans), are enlisted to round-up/confiscate firearms in this country, does that meant that they'll be coming after our Airsoft arsenal as well?

5. If they are in fact unarmed ------as outlined in the invasion plans

Paintball ambushes would become a viral phenom .

6. Thats ridiculous, why let a few Darwin award candidates spoil it

for everyone else?

Oh, and the irony would be that REAL rifles currently really don't have to be registered in Canada.
