Police Ask Store To Stop Selling Replica Guns

[MikeBjerum]

In the City of Lakes, right here in the Great White North the police have decided it is easier to "ask" a retailer to quit selling something, because that is easier than correcting the real problem

Of the entire list of illegal acts the KMart committed none, but let's go to them to correct the problems.

The article said "Police have to make a split second decision..."  What it should have said is "The gang members are, in most cases, old enough to know right from wrong and know what they are doing might get them shot and is illigal but still do it anyway.  This makes for a difficult situation for police."  I know I speak for all of us in saying I don't want any youth shot unnecessarily but........

Do you think that if more toy gun stick up artist (youths) were shot "unnecessarily", would there be fewer "youths" engaged in criminal activities.

No kiddin'.  Some reporter thinks that tracing back a receipt is a big deal.  Gee....what a journalist.

If anyone didn't already know it, using a fake gun to threaten someone is a crime. Some criminals are stupid enough to bring fake guns to a gunfight. I get a warm fuzzy feeling every time I hear about a shopkeeper or other citizen giving them what they deserve. That solves the fake gun problem in a hurry.
