Monday, February 27, 2012 Dear Jack Hotchkiss, I would like to share two, equally amazing news stories that came out of Canada this week. Why is whatever may be going on in Canada important to American gun owners? Because it gives us a glimpse, both good and bad, of what COULD BE the future of American gun owners if we do not remain vigilant in continuing to grow rapidly and positively change the image of gun ownership in our lifetimes. Reading these two stories, polar opposites of each other, should demonstrate WHY I aggressively do everything possible to grow the Front Sight legions with unbelievable offers to take our training and spread our message of safe and responsible gun training all over America. We can either push to grow and expand our influence across the country and ultimately bring sanity and reason into the gun debate by the ever increasing numbers of people who know the truth because they own guns and have been professionally trained or we can allow the unenlightened to take over and strip our freedom and safety through their own ignorance. Read these two stories and you will understand why I choose to win through growth and training... and if you have not joined my newFront Sight Patriots Group, here is the link: http://www.frontsight.com/ Subscribe to it today and you will be just in time to receive the March Patriot Reward! Here is the first story out of Canada... the good story... Gun registry admits total failure after $2.7 billion John R. Lott and Gary Mauser report on a national gun registry experiment in Canada in which the government has finally admitted total failure after blowing $2.7 billion: And here is the bad story coming out of Canada... quite unbelievable to say the least, but demonstrates exactly what happens whengun control advocates have ready access to the very infrastructure they need to advance their agenda: a strong police force, a strong agency of propaganda ("education"), and a strong facade of its necessary existence (benefits like education, health care, safety, etc.). Again, when you wonder WHY I am so aggressive in doing everything possible to compel, coerce, beg, bribe and reward Americans into seeking out our training, remember this story... Madness after girl, 4, draws gun pic at school WORLDNETDAILY Dad: 'I'm picking up my kids and then, next thing you know, I'm locked up' A father has been arrested, strip-searched and hauled in for questioning – all because his four-year-old daughter drew a picture of a gun at school. "I'm picking up my kids and then, next thing you know, I'm locked up," Jessie Sansone, 26, told the Waterloo Region Record in Canada. "I was in shock. This is completely insane. My daughter drew a gun on a piece of paper at school." Sansone, a Kitchener resident, had arrived at Forest Hill public school to pick up his children when he was called to the principal's office. Three police officers informed him he was being charged with possession of a firearm. Then he was escorted out of the school, handcuffed and locked in the back of a police car. According to Sansone, he didn't learn what had caused the investigation until hours after his arrest. Other officers arrived at his home, where they instructed his wife to come to the police station and took his other three children to Family and Children's Services to be questioned. "Nobody was given any explanation," Sansone's wife, Stephanie Squires, told the paper. "I didn't know why he was being arrested. He had absolutely no idea what this was even about. I just kept telling them. ‘You're making a mistake.'" Sansone was forced to undergo a full strip search. The school principal, police and child welfare officials said there would need to be an investigation to determine whether he had a gun in his home that children could find. Alison Scott, executive director of Family and Children's Services, told the Record, "From a public safety point of view, any child drawing a picture of guns and saying there's guns in a home would warrant some further conversation with the parents and child." Waterloo Regional Police Inspector Kevin Thaler said Forest Hill public school had complained that "a firearm was in a residence and children had access to it. We had every concern, based on this information, that children were in danger." He told the paper the school officials' concern wasn't based merely on the girl's picture. Neaveh, Sansone's daughter, also purportedly made remarks about the drawing that troubled officials. When a teacher asked Neaveh who the man in the picture was, she purportedly said, "That's my daddy's. He uses it to shoot bad guys and monsters." Sansone said several hours after his arrest a detective apologized and informed him that he would be released without charges. "To be honest with you, I broke down," Sansone told the Record. "My character got put down so much. I was actually really hurt, like it could happen that easy. How do you recognize a criminal from a father?" After his release, authorities asked Sansone to sign a document allowing a search of his house. He said he signed it, even though he had the option to decline. "I just think they blew it out of proportion," his wife said. "It was for absolutely nothing. They searched our house upside down and found nothing. They had the assumption he owned a firearm." She added, "The way everything happened was completely unnecessary, especially since we know the school very well. I don't understand how they came to that conclusion from a four-year-old's drawing." Alison Scott, executive director of Family and Children's Services, said the agency was required to investigate after the school reported the incident. "Our community would have an expectation if comments are made about a gun in a house, we'd be obligated to investigate that to ensure everything is safe," she said. "In the end, it may not be substantiated. There may be a reasonable explanation for why the child drew that gun. But we have to go on what gets presented to us." According to the report, she acknowledged, "I'm sure this was a very stressful thing for the family." As for the strip search, Thaler said the procedure was required "for officer safety, because it's a firearms-related incident." He noted, "At the point in the investigation when it was determined it was not a real firearm, the individual was released unconditionally." I hope you now better understand why I choose to win the battle for our gun rights through growth of the Front Sight Organization and training of every American citizen... and if you have not joined my new Front Sight Patriots Group, here is the link:http://www.frontsight.com/ Subscribe to it today and you will be just in time to receive the March Patriot Reward!
