I don't want to rain on their party, but, do they (canuks) really believe that they have confiscated all the guns in Canada? I mean, really now. Can you imagine asking Americans to turn in their guns.

Bwaaaaaaaaaa ha ha ha

That's going to depend on the details.

Did these guys use false IDs and sign Form 4473s?
Doubtful. But if so, we clearly just need to add an
Al-Qaida question to that form :-) Right under the
one that asks "Are you presently robbing this store?"

More likely, they bought from like-minded towel-brains,
or on the black market. Following the trail of camel
dung could turn up some US cells.

You sure got that right! Senator Frankenstien simply opened a weapons catalog and pointed at the weapons that made her feel afraid, and those ended up on the Assault Weapons Ban.

Ali Dirie, 22, and Yasin Mohamed, 23 -- both Canadians from the Toronto area

I wonder if these two Canucks have got that "aboot...eh?" thing down yet.

If Muslim terrorists are going to enter the U.S., it will be from Canada, not Mexico like so many on here hope will happen.

A length of PVC pipe sealed up nice and tight would make a nice gun preserver if for some reason you had to bury them.

". . . Right under the

Or traveling to Canada. There certainly seems to be a cell, especially if they waited the 72 hours before taking possession of the weapons. Sounds like a conspiracy anyway.

"Are you presently robbing this store?"

Bwaaaaaaaaaa ha ha ha ha

I really liked that!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Too late. About two months back a known hezbolla member was sentenced on Immigration charges in Detroit after he bought a Mexican passport in Lebanon and sneaked across our southern border.

Please never fear, I have something so much nicer, and believe me, they (government) would NEVER find them. In fact, many of us in the area, have already buried weapons, simply because we do not trust authorities to outlaw weapons from one day to the next, and the reason for the laughter in my last post to you.

Again, I say, confiscate weapons from Americans? Bwaaaaaaaaa ha ha ha ha ha.

I can't help but laugh over something as stupid as any government official even thinking that most Americans would comply with something as stupid as turning in their weapons.

Actually, I wonder if they crossed from Canada to the US before they were caught crossing into canada. Testing the crossing so to speak.

These are NOT bright people.

Okay folks, enough Canuck and Muslim-name jokes.

Notice anything curious about this one? Canada has been scrupulously anti-war-on-terror, yet two Muslims are smuggling weapons into Canada. The only point would be for an attack in Canada, since there would be no point in smuggling weapons into Canada for an attack elsewhere, as this would necessitate more border crossings with more potentials for discovery.

Ummm... I think it said that they were 'Canadians' returning to Canada from the United States, where they were no doubt up to no good. (damit)

Anyone with half a brain wouldn't try to sneak weapons through an official crossing.

LOL Especially when all it takes it to walk about 1000 meters to the east and transit right across unchecked and unobserved! I've done it going the other way, by accident many times when I was stationed up that way. Good thing we were never detected, too, because a platoon of infantry might constitute an invasion. If it was France, they might've even surrendered.
