Most of the weapons charges will be dropped! They will get a slap on the wrist, and the sad thing to this is Trudeau will come down hard on law abiding citizens by outlawing weapons that are lawfully owned by LAW abiding citizens! The boys in blue do their job and the courts hand out puny sentences! What an encouragement to do your job! Safe day to all first responders and those making it work out there, THANK YOU!
