Should be an interesting gun control debate. No?

 

[depotoo]

Possibility of multiple suspects.

Americanizing Canada.

Sad.

For all the RW nutters in congress, they don't allow guns there.

One gunman dead.

I am guessing practitioners of the religion of peace.

 

[Moonglow]

It was probably a US citizen shooting..

One shooter dead. Multiple shooters reported.

Lack of guns caused this.

A soldier standing guard was shot in the chest at the nearby National War Memorial

It is off topic, but there is a direct link I posted in the "current events."

I believe the video belongs there, as well

The gun free zone stopped this?

 

[Lipush]

Were they given the all clear or is the event still rolling?

This is the second thread on this. Ask mods to combine and hope people pay attention.

1) This didn't actually happen...Canada has strict gun control laws...so no one can go on a shooting spree there....

2)

The gun free zone stopped this?

forget gun free "Zone"...it is a "gun free" country...as they always tell us in these threads...

 

[Beelzebub]

Mods. Please delete this thread. I see I cannot delete the OP.

Ta.

Edit:
Or maybe leave it. As Jerry says, there might be something brewing with these things connected.

And then there is this little nugget...

The shootings in the heart of the normally placid Canadian capital came two days after two members of the Canadian armed forces were injured in a hit-and-run crash in a small Quebec city that the authorities considered an act of terrorism.
