Murder near where I live...

[dennilfloss]

Someone got shot gang-style just three city blocks from my apartment. We live in scary times. 🙁

No, she was hit by a car. Sad. 🙁

But I thought your wonderful socialist country didn't allow guns?
Does not compute.

We have the US to thank for the flow of illegal handguns northwards. I suppose it's payback for when we 'exported' all that alcohol southwards during your prohibition.

Please send more of your BC Bud southward. I'll make sure to keep my guns, and not let them end up in Canada!

Half the guns used in gang shootings in
B. C. were smuggled from the United States. In Toronto, the figure is
more than two-thirds.

Looks like the Canadian border patrol isn't doing it's job.

If I was in the US I would thank you for that.

Awww... you mean that wasn't you? 🙁

Don't they typically check for weapons at the door of most nightclubs?

Historically speaking, you think THESE are scary times? You need to man up.

LOL, I know, the media blows all this shit out of proportion, it's safer for the average citizen now than it ever has been, but if you're a dumb ass and believe the tools that feed you the news, it seems like the end of days on a biblical scale.

:disgust:

Problem is that politicians listen to these nitwits and use their fear as tools to gather more power unto themselves. See Department of Homeland Security as a prime example.

sounds very similar to the estimate from Mexico. That really didn't end up to be the case either

We've had a recent "flurry" of shootings here too. Nearly every one has been blamed on the gangs...mostly Mexicans.
