@Frederick Bernal
I feel like your user name is familiar
Were you in the "old" canada discord from Pete, or something?

No

Same name

Hmm

The Canada General you mean?

I’m still in there

It’s dead in there

Maybe that's it

Well I'm part of a team of about 16 people mostly ex military any interest in getting together for airsoft matches

I just watched that about 10 minutes ago

I've been a CCFR member since it's inception

yes

unfortunately the gun lobby has been very ineffectual

and they don't condone any explicit non-compliance talk on their facebook group

ended up in a private conversation with their moderators and asked them "so what do you tell people when the gov't come for everyone's guns by law? hand them in and wait for the laws to make it all legal again?"

"since you'd have to keep touting the 'legal gun owner' line to keep your righteous superiority"

"lot of good that'll help you when the gov't takes everything"

The CCFR should be renamed to the Canadian Coalition for Firearms Privileges

Yeah I know a few of the CCFR big whigs personally and I wouldn't buy a membership many of the leaders behind groups like the NFA or the CCFR make money from our licencing system so they will fight tooth and nail to keep it

And the NFA and CCFR are terrified at the idea of holding any sort of pro firearms protest or rally

The only person likely to rally is Don Lindsay of the Canadian Firearms Network, and he's one crazy bastard

I like him

I guess they just know that they can't really achieve anything

so they'll do all that they can for as long as they can

while collecting that revenue

The problem is the CCFR can't advocate for things that break the law and remain legitimate at the same time.

That's what pot legalization activists did.

Imagine if they had spent years going around telling people not to use cannabis until it was legalized.

Different situation

Different situation

Not really the only difference is public perception. They are brainwashed to fear guns and brainwashed to think drugs and poor moral standards are normal

If the ccfr put in the effort they could launch an effective public information campaign that included public outreach at rallies etc

There's been a public outreach campaign for probably 2 years now.
Explainer videos, media appearances, the TV show, etc

Personally I have spent years in political activism on the "right" Canada is already dead

The www.gundebate.ca website

The only people who watch their videos and tv show own guns
