Thoughts: Freedom Convoy 2022

[Tik-Tok]

It wasnt bullshit, there are four people being charged, and are still in prison awaiting trial. Whether they have a direct connection to the truckers, or they had their own agenda, I couldn't tell you.

Yup, conspiracy to commit murder (of RCMP officers). The crown has stated they have wire tap evidence of it in addition to body armor, hand guns, large quantity of ammunition and machete so it was much more than "just some long guns they found on private property".

[ExtraSlow]

Yeah, I don't know the details beyond what's been in the herald for either protest, but the seriousness of the charges certainly seems larger for the Coutts honkening. Murder is worse than mischief. Conspiracy sounds worse than counselling too although I'd have to check with shak to be sure.

What were the charges for the costal gaslink thingy? Smashing cop car windows and trying to set the cars on fire while the cops are inside seems like a serious action as does destroying expensive construction equipment, although as far as I recall "no suspects were identified" for the violence and the only charges that came out of that whole thing was "criminal contempt".

I wonder if this is why they held the organizers so long? Perhaps they were investigating a possible connection between the Coutts crossing suspects and the rest of the honker organizers? One thing I know for sure, a lot of somebody's CERB went into the purchase of the Kriss Vector and the tricked out DD AR15's that were seized.

I've never actually seen anyone fly the flag upside down. Clearly this person is not in actual distress. (Even if they thought they were, during the restrictions).

I mean, what's the point of even protesting anymore? It was stupid at the time, but virtually irrelevant now. Imo, this is now just a symbol for being a major douche and nothing more.

[DonJuan]

This guy's just so excited for world cup in November that he accidentally put it upside down on his truck.

For sure.

Saw a Fuck Trudeau rally rolled thru Kensington last Friday night.

[jutes]

These symbols are riddled all over the prairie provinces, which ironically don't vote for Trudeau anyway. You are literally wasting your time being inside the echo chamber. Go protest in the GTA, Montreal or Atlantic provinces.

Fourteen people were charged after RCMP found a cache of long guns, handguns, body armour, large amounts of ammunition and high-capacity magazines in three trailers.

Which were found on property far away from the blockade.

Made up charges are made up, only reason these guys go to jail is if they have no money for lawyers.

As for Kloubel, LOL, yes we shouldn't be mad or still upset with the federal gov violating our constitutional rights. Jesus you can't make this shit up for how devoid of thought some people are.

[DonJuan]

Actual transcript of intercepted group text:

Perp #1: Hey guys lets go do (insert shady shit) with these guns and high capacity mags we have stored at (insert address of property far away from blockade).

Perp #2-14: Yea! Let's definitely do (insert shady shit). Good thing we have these guns and high capacity mags at (insert address of property far away from blockade) or else it would be illegal! Cuz I spent all my CERB on guns and shit! Fuck Turdeau! Yea! YEa!


Illegal shit is illegal.

Illegal shit is illegal.

What was illegal exactly?

Long guns, legal
Hand guns, legal
Amount of ammunition LOL doesn't even factor in. Gun people have large amounts of ammo, including some on this very forum. DOMESTIC TERRORISTS
High capacity magazines are illegal, and yet lots of people have them because it has nothing to do with committing a crime
Only questionable thing is body armour.

The Crown is attempting to streamline the cases of four men charged with conspiracy to commit murder

This would mean that they WERE PLANNING TO MURDER COPS.

Now maybe they are complete asshole retards who literally messaged each other "todays the day going to get some pigs!" and yes, I absolutely want them in prison for life if that is the case.

My points are 1) Innocent until proven guilty and 2) All allegations so far surrounding the convoy have come up bullshit

That's no an unreasonable stance, even though some would like us to operate like China when it comes to certain issues.

...

Owning a modified or high capacity mag is a crime. Body armour is questionable.

Thank god answering your own questions isn't illegal.

[Tik-Tok]

Are you somehow privy to the prosecutor's case details? Why don't you them them come out first before you start ranting about made-up charges, and honking your horn.

These guy might just be that stupid.

You can legally own and purchase body armour with a non-restricted license in AB. Which the accused would have due to said long guns.

[DonJuan]

My bad, I edited from the wrong spot on his post.

My issue is the high capacity mags. Intent is something to be proven in court.

Oh boy... another "I know it all" moment from Zechs.

Let's make it simple for you with just one question: What rights exactly were violated? Here's a prep article for you to help you determine what is and is not a rights violation.
https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/calga...ment-1.6186034

More importantly, since Covid began, what court has sided with your assertion that rights were violated? Or, are you just painting your own opinion as the be-all, end-all and everyone else is just "stupid"?

[DonJuan]

From the CTV article:

"Lysak's lawyer, Jim Lutz, expressed disappointment that a trial date has yet to be scheduled."

Are you? Because certainly government prosecutors NEVER try to prosecute false charges.

Pretty sure people on this very site have extended mags.

None of this amounts to conspiracy to murder someone. Their need to be so secretive is bcecause they have nothing on these guys.

Kloubek, I can't help that you're ignorant and it shows.

[killramos]

Currently extended mags? Or potentially extendable mags?
