Let me flush this out. I'm not a conspiracy chick. Not at all. But I don't always trust the law. Or the government. Check out what they did in High River.
"But after the evacuation order was lifted, residents were shocked to discover that, while they were gone, police had entered their homes and removed hundreds of firearms — including properly licenced guns stored in full compliance with the terms of the Firearms Act.
The public understands why, during an emergency, rescue teams, police officers and military personnel may need to enter private homes, if they are to be thorough in their searches of disaster areas. But for the RCMP to have removed — “seized,” as the force said in a press release at the time — guns that had been securely locked away, out of sight in closets and drawers, went well beyond checking for survivors or stranded pets.
It seemed then, as it does now, an outrageous breach of public trust — police taking an opportunity to snoop through people’s private homes and seize their property under the cover of an emergency. This week, the Civilian Review and Complaints Commission for the RCMP concluded the same. In its long-awaited report into the affair it found that the police had indeed acted unlawfully."
National Post View: Gun grab in High River was a serious RCMP failure
Big Brother won't call it 'Martial Law.' He'll call it a 'State of Emergency' instead. He's done his homework. That subtle change in terminology has been proven to calm the Sheeple.
