The guy was a wannabe cop. Too stupid to actually get in.

Hmm if only one of those victims had some defence, maybe none of this would have happened. Oh shit I forgot, in Canada you're not allowed to protect yourself. Got to wait for the police. Gerald Stanley is the perfect example for the need of castle law in Canada, especially in rural communities where the RCMP are few and far between.

Also, the guy was dressed as a cop. Are you really going to shoot a cop? I would like to see how many of the victims owned a gun.
The number is up to 18 but they say it could be higher because they don't know all the places the guy went.

So the deaths are yp to 19, just reported by the NS police
And the shooter was a dentist, so the whole "too stupid to be a cop" thing is probably not the case
Dentists have the highest rate of suicide or one of the highest last I remember
Edit: isn't belka a refugee from Iran? how did he become an extremist white guy over the years...

Posing as an RCMP and going on a killing spree isn't a daily occurrence. Lawful gun owners will be punished, once again, by government who doesn't care about increasing funding for law enforcement or mental health services. Lets take away registered firearms because lawful gun owners are easy targets and blaming them feels good. This sounds like a failure by the RCMP, how many hours this went on unanswered? Pretty good reason to keep a firearm in the house just in case. Quote:

I don't own a gun because of personal circumstances, however it's extremely asinine for me to say we need to remove legal firearms from lawful citizens. We don't have enough policing in this country to justify removing everyone's right to self-defence.

NSMB, I notice you like to fail me a lot, please chime in why my comment offended you.
My comment is true, why is it that I already knew what this guy looked like before evening opening the thread?
For the last two decades we've had to listen to such utter demagoguery and gas-lighting about terrorism, and how we're open to terrorist attacks by guys clutching Kalashnikovs in dusty caves in the middle of nowhere.
I have conservative friends that still rally about Muslims, how much they hate them, and all that garbage they've been sipping from their media.
How many of these mass shootings (which should be called terrorist attacks) have to happen before we can discuss the major issue with middle aged white men, and these violent attacks in North America?
This isn't about politics, it's a serious problem, and it's on the rise every year here.
Why is it happening so often by one demographic of people? Please avoid any whataboutisms.
I firmly believe that obscure right-wing media (not talking about this particular instance) and the radicalism its creating has a major part to play here.

[/sarcasm] | Ur dumb. No one said anything about going rambo with a pistol on your way to buy overpriced coffee. Lawful gun owners don't go looking for gun battles, this isn't the wild west.
Do you need firearms in Vancouver? Probably not. Rural BC? I'd own one, LEGALLY. Liberals will just use this as an excuse to pass more legislation to limit ownership for people thousands of kilometres away. They never let a tragedy go to waste.

So who in BC is living thousands of kilometres away from what ever you are talking about.
No one is talking about talking away all guns. Thats compete B.S.
