Militarised Police

What's with cops wearing camo.... does it help you blend in with all that concrete?

Wall-E to the fucking rescue.

That was johnny 5 and you know it.

it's probably the stuff they could get cheap from 5.11 or another company that is made from special rip stop stuff and is full of pockets and properly built to avoid tearing but allow full range of motion easily.

There's trees in the city guy. It allows them to disappear behind them.

Everyday police should stay the same but receive better training.

It anything it should be urban camo.

My 5.11's are my favorite pants.

Whatever it takes to get rid of terrorist groups like ISIS and Black Lives Matter. They are a serious threat to democracy and need to be taken out By Any Means Necessary.

They don't make anything that fits my fat ass.

Wearing pants when running drills at a gravel pit with friends is a must as not everyone is as badass as Tanto running into battle in cargo shorts but fuck me... are jeans uncomfortable to wear a drop leg holster on.

As I understand the law, people in Canada can't get ARs to even match the police. That's much worse of a leveraged position for Canada than the US.

I think they CAN but they have to be stored at a private range that they are a member of or some such thing and they have to "sign it out" essentially.

We can get AR's, several of my buddies have them.

Partially true, you do have to be a member of a range, but you can store it at home, as long as it's secured.

Thank you for the correction. What are the general restrictions then?

There was someone I swore that said certain firearms had to be stored away from your home.

A lot of people choose to store at ranges just because of how strict the requirements are. AR get's classified the same as 1911,
restricted fire arm.

Restricted and prohibited firearms

• Attach a secure locking device so the firearms cannot be fired and lock them in a cabinet, container or room that is difficult to break into; or
  

• Lock the firearms in a vault, safe or room that was built or modified specifically to store firearms safely.
• For automatic firearms, also remove the bolts or bolt carriers (if removable) and lock them in a separate room that is difficult to break into.

Guns in Canada are classified in three different varieties, non-restricted (rifles, shotguns, basically any long gun), restricted (pistols, AR's and similar guns) and prohibited (anything full auto, pocket-able hand guns, etc. Restricted and non-restricted each require their own safety course, or you can challenge the exam. Prohibited are not allowed at all except for a very small number of special permits issued to very few people.

Restricted firearms have to be registered with the government. Up until recently rifles did to, but the last government undid that.
