I'm not an American but a Canadian who has Canadian friends down there. People who would never have considered buying guns up here are purchase one per family member down there because of the riots.

You have a crazy country. Stay safe.

Have you not seen Montreal protests? Police suiting up in the same gear and getting ready to fire the same less lethal rounds in to crowds.

My friends are scared of the protestors, not the police. Their fear is that the police will not show up if overwhelmed.

Violence in Montreal seems well contained for now.
