How's that gun ban thing workin for ya'll?

[dsc]

"Toronto's police chief calls it "infuriating."

Well, then, get your guys together, and go out and bag some gangsters, ya wuss. Dead or alive.

[crz]

Whens the PM/Gov' gonna blame the USA for this?

[BeAllYouCanBe]

"We will take away your guns and put you away -- or kick you out of Canada -- for good."

I'm not sure that being "put away" is all that serious punishment in Canada. Most Holiday Inns in the US are not as nice as some of the detention facilities in Canada.

**What we need are leaders who will stare down the laughing gangsters and tell them: You will not take over. We will hunt you down. We will take away your guns and put you away -- or kick you out of Canada -- for good. **

Lets see: We will hunt you down and take away your guns and put you away,Or Horror of Horrors we will throw you out of Canada. LAWD have mercy not that.

No mention of Capitol punishment for murdering innocents. just a threat to be put away in a Country Club Canadian jail for a couple of years. That would scare hell out of most gang members. Jail is like going home to most of these guys.

****Monday's victims are from all over; they are male and female; white, black, Asian. They are all of us. ****

Well we know they killed anyone unlucky enough to be on the street but how come no mention of the racial makeup of the perps? Are they all of us too??

[Godzilla]

We will break their gun culture by imprisoning every thug we catch carrying one -- not by harassing collectors and sportsmen.

Spot on! However, I doubt the Canadian leadership will be as wise to catch on.

[GreenLanternCorps]

The only party and leader offering a real solution is the Tories and Stephen Harper. Put the bad guys in jail! Wake up Ontario, the Grits have failed you. Put in a real leader and get the crooks in jail!

[Klickitat]

"Monday's victims are from all over; they are male and female; white, black, Asian. "

Question isn't where the victims are 'from' -- it's where the gang members are 'from'.

[headstamp]

Wait a minute, I thought this was our fault.......

[CaptainCanada]

It's too late, so let's get used to the violence, cause
it's only going to get worse.
It's part of the Black culture of gangs, hip-hop, gangsta rap,
drugs & guns and single parents on welfare
. And it ain't just here.. It's wherever there's a large black
population, anywhere in the world.
It's not poverty as many immigrant groups came over poor, so attempts
at social engineering have, and will, fail. The problem was our lax immigration policy which assumed that
all racial, cultural and ethnic groups were equal in their ability
to contribute to our society.
But they're here now and it's too late to shut the barn door.
So you have a population segment in Toronto of approx 8% doing 95%
of the shooting.
The good news (if there is any good news), is that they're shooting each
other for the most part, so there's a self correcting mechanism at play
as the gun violence increases.
Of course there would be better options to stop this sort of shit from happening
but all would entail politically incorrect solutions.
My recommendation is tough manditory minimum sentences.
Give the police back the right to profile and search likely suspects at random.
And deport any 1st generation immigrant found guilty of a felony
And that just for starters.

" The city's mayor is "saddened"

Is Lieberman the Mayor?

[Grig]

Clearly, these warmongers fail to realize that Toronto is a quagmire. We need to withdraw the police from there right away, they are only provoking this violence.

Before there were police there we didn't have this problem. We are threatening their turf and these freedom fighters are just trying to defend it.

Harsher sentences and stricter enforcement will just drive more of them to take up arms to defend themselves. How can we blame them for that?

[kanawa]

[goldstategop]

Nah. Its all America's fault!

[Eighth Square]

Hey! when you find some of these leaders let us know, we could use 'em down here and we'll pay 'em good!

[dr_who_2]

Someone with a gun and some training could have taken out the gangsta that couldn't shoot straight and possibly saved a few lives in the process. Just thought that was worth pointing out.

[weegee]

"gun-toting punks"???

No. They are trial conflicts among insurgents. Canada needs to learn to be more respectful of cultural diversity.

[Navy Patriot]

Obviously, another case of gun control that didn't work. I cannot believe that North American politicians and police actually think that gun control works, so I must conclude that they sacrifice innocent citizens for political gain and job security. They are worse than the criminals they purport to detest.

[OldPossum]

Did y'all notice this little ditty: "We will take away your guns and put you away -- or kick you out of Canada -- for good."

Goodness gracious, they're going to take away the bad guys' guns and put them away (for maybe...say, 4 years) or maybe even deport them. No more Mr. Good Guy!
