Gang shooting at Toronto mall....which Canadian gun law kept this from happening, or being a mass public shooting?

[2aguy]

But.....Canada has gun control....so how did these criminals get a gun to shoot at other people in this Mall?

And which Canadian gun control law kept this shooter from shooting more people and turning this into a mass public shooting?

He had the gun, he was at the mall, and he shot the gun.....which Canadian gun control law kept this from being a mass public shooting?

Here's what really went down at the Yorkdale shooting in Toronto

Shoppers who spent the afternoon at Yorkdale Shopping Centre on Sunday found themselves in a frightening swirl of chaos when gun shots rang out aroun…

Did this altercation start in one of the mall's bookstores?

Of course it didn't!

LOL!

'Teens' of struggle and triumph strike again!

Why do we never see; "Suspect was identified as XXX XXXXX of XXXXX"

Anymore?

Just kiddin I know the answer...

"I'll take 'Diversity' for $500 Alex".

Gun control laws don't prevent all gun crimes, any more than laws against theft, or murder prevent all thefts or murders. You seem to think that unless ALL gun crime is stopped, and no murders ever happen, no gun control should be passed.

But nobody had any semi-automatic weapons, firing multiple rounds per second, only 7 shots were fired, and most importantly NOBODY DIED OR WAS INJURED.

GUN CONTROL REDUCES GUN CRIME EVERYWHERE.

Idiot...your ignorance is revealed in every post..........most handguns are semi-automatic you idiot.......even revolvers can be considered semi-automatic in that one bullet is fired for each pull of the trigger....you doofus.

You seem to think that unless ALL gun crime is stopped, and no murders ever happen, no gun control should be passed.

Wrong....I know that gun control laws do not keep criminals from getting guns....not even on the gun controlled island of England or Australia.......gun control simply makes it more difficult for normal people to own and carry guns for self defense.

We have gun control laws in the U.S......our problem is that our political party, the democrat party, keeps releasing gun criminals...criminals who have been caught with illegal guns, criminals who have actually shot, and murdered people...they release these known, repeat gun criminals over and over again making the laws we have a joke.

We don't have gun crime here because normal people own and carry guns...we have gun crime in the U.S. because democrats release the criminals who use guns illegally...and they release them over and over again....

Your problem is you have way too many guns and it's way too easy to get a gun in the USA. You have no gun control whatsoever, because of the sheer number of guns in circulation. Getting a gun is easy and Republicans keep making it easier. Half the guns on the street come from private sales or theft of legally purchased guns. Half of the illegal guns in Canada, come from the USA.

It's no coincidence that gun sales spiked last year and gun crime is spiking this year. It's like night following day. Every state that has passed "stand your ground laws" has seen an increase in gun homicides. You'll deny these facts, but they're indicative that what passes for gun control in the USA, just makes it harder for non-criminals to buy weapons, but has no impact on the illegal trade.

The bald fact is you love your guns and you refuse to give them up no matter how many children are killed in school shootings, or how many concert venues get shot up. You're going to keep your guns, because for you, happiness is a warm gun.

38,000 gun deaths per year, 76,000 injured in shootings, is the price you're willing to pay to keep your gun close to you. No other nation in the first world has this level of carnage and fools like you refuse to give up your guns.

Keep telling yourself that guns are keeping you safe. If that were true, the USA would be the safest country in the world instead of the most dangerous.

Blah, Blah, Blah....

Please....just try to explain to us how it is that over 27 years, as more Americans bought guns, and carried those guns...our gun murder rate went down 49%....our gun crime rate went down 75%...

How on earth, according to your stupid theory, is that possible?

And you lie.....again...this is why we don't respect you....the facts, the truth and the reality do not support your arguments...so you lie...

38,000 gun deaths per year,

Gun murder 2019...

10,285...of those 70-80% of the victims are criminals, not normal people....murdered because they are engaged in the criminal life style....of the rest, the majority are the friends, family and associates of those criminals caught in the crossfire...

Gun suicide....your real lie...

23,941.....

So you have to lie, you have to add sucide to the gun murder total, as a lie, to hide the weakness of your argument.....since you don't have truth, facts or reality on your side...

It's no coincidence that gun sales spiked last year and gun crime is spiking this year.


Moron........in 2015 the democrat party declared war on our police.........when george floyd happened they burned police stations and court houses, violently attacked the police and cut their funding....so the police stopped policing in democrat party controlled cities....

That, you idiot, is why we have had crime spikes in democrat party controlled cities....

It has nothing to do with normal people who own and carry guns, since those people aren't using their guns for crime...you doofus...

Over the last 27 years, we went from 200 million guns in private hands in the 1990s and 4.7 million people carrying guns for self defense in 1997...to close to 400-600 million guns in private hands and over 19.4 million people carrying guns for self defense in 2019...guess what happened...

New Concealed Carry Report For 2020: 19.48 Million Permit Holders, 820,000 More Than Last Year despite many states shutting down issuing permits because of the Coronavirus - Crime Prevention Research Center


-- gun murder down 49%

--gun crime down 75%

--violent crime down 72%

Gun Homicide Rate Down 49% Since 1993 Peak; Public Unaware

Compared with 1993, the peak of U.S. gun homicides, the firearm homicide rate was 49% lower in 2010, and there were fewer deaths, even though the nation’s population grew. The victimization rate for other violent crimes with a firearm—assaults, robberies and sex crimes—was 75% lower in 2011 than in 1993. Violent non-fatal crime victimization overall (with or without a firearm) also is down markedly (72%) over two decades.


This means that access to guns does not create gun crime........

Why do our democrat party controlled cities have gun crime problems?

1) the democrat party keeps releasing violent gun offenders...they have created a revolving door for criminals who use guns, and will release even the most serious gun offenders over and over again....why? Probably because they realise that normal people don't use their guns for crime, so if they want to push gun control, they need criminals to shoot people.....so they keep releasing them....

2) The democrat party keeps attacking the police.....driving the officers into not doing pro-active policing, cutting detective forces so that murders go unsolved..........

We had 12 mass public shootings in 2019......total killed 73.


Americans own 600 million guns, and over 19.4 million legally carry their legal guns out in public for self defense.....

.......total number of people who engaged in mass public shootings in 2019....

12, out of over 330 million people in the United States.


Total number of people killed in those 12 mass public shootings?

73.

Compared to?

Deer kill 200 people a year.

Bathtubs kill 350 people a year.

Ladders kill 200 people a year.

Lawn mowers kill between 90-100 people a year.

In Japan, bathtubs actually kill between 14,000 and 19,000 people a year.

gun grabbers push mass public shootings for one particular reason......

Almost 99.99% of gun murder is not mass public shootings......they are criminals shooting other criminals in tiny areas of democrat party controlled cities.....

Of the 10,258 gun murders 70-80% of the gun murder victims are actual criminals....they are not normal Americans going about their normal lives.

That leaves about 2,051 actual innocent (?) people as victims of gun murder...but of those, the vast majority are the friends, family and associates of criminals..or people who attend block parties or birthday parties where criminals show up and get shot at by other criminals........

sooooooooo.....

Most Americans are not criminals.

If you are not a criminal.

If you are not a family member of a criminal.

If you are not an associate of a criminal.

If you don't live in the tiny, democrat party controlled areas of cities where criminals control the streets.

If you don't attend block parties and birthday parties where criminals show up.........

If you are none of the above, the odds of you getting shot by a criminal are almost zero.....

And Americans know this both instinctively and statistically....so they do not actual fear getting shot and killed by criminals....

However.....when a mass public shooting happens, where an individual with a gun enters a public space and shoots random strangers......that may effect normal Americans..........this is not true....but that is the one type of gun murder that most Americans fear...since it is random and effects normal places where people go...

Again......330,000,000 million people in the U.S......

12 people out of those 330,000,000 engaged in mass public shootings in 2019.......killing a total of 73 people.....

The rarest of rare events.............

So anti-gun extremists push mass public shootings because they are covered 24/7 by the democrat party press while the black on black gun murder that is the majority of shootings in our country go uncovered because they occur in democrat party controlled cities.....

O.k....now that you were schooled, again, on Americans and guns, answer the question...

Which Canadian gun control law kept these shooters from entering a school, a mall, a church, or a theater and shooting people.....?

Which gun control law stopped them....
