If Canada became the 51st state, every Canadian would potentially be free to own one of these. That’s a Catch-22 for y’all I guess. As it is now, you’re not free enough to be able to individually defend yourselves against aggressors, foreign and domestic.
Give up national independence to increase individual freedom--an interesting dilemma for sure.
A civilian-transferable M134 would cost you a few hundred grand, though.
No worries… We are working with Australia, France, UK, and Germany to obtain all required arms to defend ourselves from the new USA (Russia) alliance. We are prepared for what is coming.
