I believe I, and any Canadian, have every right to kill a person who represents a foreign (hostile)government, and tries to abduct me, or those I care about in my country. As they do not represent my government, I believe I’m free and clear.

No authority?

No process?

It is then an act of war, and we should respond accordingly with deadly force.

Just sayin.

    This is one of the first times I’ve heard a Canadian threatening without saying sorry first.

    Shit must be gettin’ tough

    The most polite people I know are also the most willing to stand up against wrong doing when the time comes. They are they way they are because they value good prosocial behaviour, they're willing to sacrifice their own convenience for it, and they're willing to defend it.

    Well. I mean, attempt armed arrest anyway and hope they don't start shooting. That's just polite.

    As they are not empowered by a Canadian government, they may not carry firearms unless they have an express act to do so. This may in fact be the case under a blanket act for border agents. We should review that…

    I agree, foreign agents seeking to subvert Canadian sovereignty, their life is forfeit as long as they are operating on Canadian soil. They shouldn't have any legal protections either if their objective is to destabilize the country or attack our sovereignty.

    And a whole new array of gun laws will be passed after the fact to ensure no more peasant revolts occur.

    A nail in a board works just fine.

    One man with a nail in a board is how it starts... Soon enough it's hundreds with boards and nails.
