A .50 cal machine gun? With or without the Humvee? :o

This is quickly escalating out of control out there. It's good to hear that the RCMP got their hands on this "batch" of weapons, but surely there are more.

Daily driver 1: 2007 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sport "S"

33" BFG Mud-Terrain KM2s, lots of Rough Country gear - bumper, 2.5" lift, swaybar disconnects, Superwinch 10,000lb winch, Detroit Locker in rear D44 axle, custom exhaust, K+N filtercharger, Superchips-tuned.

Daily driver 2: 2006 Subaru Legacy GT

COBB Stage 1+ package - AccessPort tuner, COBB intake and airbox. Stage 2 coming shortly - COBB 3" AT stainless DP and race cat, custom 3" Magnaflow-based exhaust and Stage 2 COBB tune.

It was good to hear Obama the other day admit that America was the most significant factor in Mexico's drug war ... being the source of the market (ie: source of money) as well as the source of the weapons ... and to whatever degree the gang wars in Vancouver are drug related, IMO it's the same thing north of the border.

I know that fundamentally Americans are different than Canadians when it comes to the use of guns, but our gun crime profile would be significantly different if it was just as hard to get a gun in America as it is up here.
