Standard protocol for firearms seizure/surrender includes the investigating officer adding the firearm as a property item within the electronic records management system.

There are chain of custody and destruction receipts at each stage of the property being moved.

For a standalone seizure, it would be difficult for an officer to hide the fact that a seized or surrendered firearm didn’t make it from the temporary storage to permanent storage to destruction, etc.

That is perhaps why @reginapolice were able to catch the discrepancy internally.

The bigger problem is if police services create global/bulk files for amnesty programs.

If an individual legal (or illegal) firearms owner isn’t attached to one or more surrendered/seized firearms, it creates an opportunity for a dishonest police officer to officially undercount the total number of firearms surrendered—and hypothetically steal it.

Bullets don’t “knock down” anyone.
They simply stab people from a distance.

That’s why anatomical shot placement & follow up shots are so important to induce the CNS destruction and/or hypovolemic shock required to neutralize the target.

Caliber & casing only increase the depth and/or the width of the wound.

@joe_warmington @ezralevant @OPP This is an important case to follow through the courts. The precedent could be profound.

@WorkingCdns The LCBO does contract plainclothes security detail who specialize in arresting shoplifters.

It looks like that particular store didn’t have any of them working that day, or chose instead to use uniformed security as a deterrent.

[Unarmed Self Defence @UnarmedCanada]

@ezralevant I worked 20 years ago on that contract under Group 4 Security (G4S).

So yes they do employ plainclothes security officers specifically for arresting shoplifters.

Obviously though, the uniformed guard in that video has little to no arrest/use of force training or experience.

@tleehumphrey Well they do have a real life history. https://t.co/A4ADFikWLd

@jamesfburnett I worked as a plainclothes security officer at the LCBO before I was hired to join the RCMP.

Our job was specifically to arrest shoplifters.

Did the LCBO change their security protocols?

[Unarmed Self Defence @UnarmedCanada]

@IanRunkle I don’t understand why the LCBO had uniformed security guards without plainclothes security officers who specialize in the arrest of shoplifters.

[Unarmed Self Defence @UnarmedCanada]

@IanRunkle @cselley I was a plainclothes security officer at the LCBO in Toronto before I started my career with the RCMP 20 years ago.

That would have been an easy arrest for our crew back in the day.

Does the LCBO not use plainclothes security to deal with shoplifting anymore?

Slick move. I think that particular movement has excellent utility in a dynamic multiple attacker scenario.

The liver strike as depicted on the transverse rotational plane will tend to deliver the result as depicted (think about the boxer’s liver shot)

Just a couple of things to keep in mind:

1. Keep your feet moving, while scanning for more targets.

2. Transfer the totality of your body weight into the precise target (liver, solar plexus, etc). It’s tough to do in a straight line. Ideally, the victim is slightly offset to the left if striking with the right elbow (vice versa if striking with the left elbow)

3. As you penetrate and rotate through the strike, use the tensile contracted strength of your legs in the low/crouch position to explode upwards/forwards into your next strike.

The effect depicted in this video only works if the knee is already at full extension.

A leading knee by definition is never extended. Only the lagging knee is fully extended.

However, when weight is balanced forward, a front push kick to the lagging knee will only send the entire leg backwards.

To actually be in a position to “break” the knee joint as depicted, the victim would have to be moving backwards—for instance trying to maintain footing if pushed/tipped/slipped/struck backwards.

NEW: Ring unveils new patrol drone and robot to surveil homes and businesses by flying room to room.

The drone is able to fly back to its charging station on its own after patrolling around the home.

Here are some more details on the drone and robot:

- Patrol drone costs $250.

- Patrol rover costs $1000.

- The drone can fly for up to 8 minutes at a time.

- The drone has 148-degree peripheral vision and can quickly rotate 360 degrees to identify threats.

- Both require a subscription fee of $5 per month.

"For years, customers told us they wanted eyes in the places a fixed camera couldn’t reach, and peace of mind in the spots they’d never want one," said Ring founder Jamie Siminoff.

"The honest answer wasn’t more cameras; it meant reimagining what a security device could be. That kind of invention is hard, and it takes time."

"But we kept at it until we got it right and that’s Ring Robotics. It’s not just a new category of security; it’s the beginning of a future where proactive, autonomous protection is something every home and every business can have."

Yeah, that's what happens when ranges don't sweep up the unburnt powder at regular intervals that firearms spit out of their barrels. Over time this powder can coat the floor and then a spark makes it go boom.

In my experience, BJJ is an excellent martial art for police officers within the paradigm of controlling a suspect.

However, there are significant limitations that should be considered within a self-defence context.

These include but are not limited to:

a. facing multiple attackers from the ground
b. an over reliance upon submissions to appendicular targets
c. neglect of reliable high value targeted striking
