The truth hurts I see. Your country is the only one watching its kids die while refusing to do anything about it. But no doubt we will see Trump spend billions to treat people with mental health issues to protect your kids so you don't have to change anything.🤣 Edited December 19, 2024 by Aristides Quote

So I guess we should feel ashamed of even bringing the issue with children being murdered in school shootings up, when thousands of children are being tortured by bloodthirsty Trans people. WTF are you talking about? Quote

It has not changed that much. in fact for the year 2023, 1.94 per 100,000 people in Canada were homicide victims. In comparison, 7.5 per 100,000 Americans were victims of homicide. source: https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/t1/tbl1/en/tv.action?pid=3510006801 https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/pressroom/sosmap/homicide_mortality/homicide.htm 1 Quote

And rather than deal with it and looking at addressing it we see the liberals going for gun control against lawful law-abiding citizens Which is exactly what I say, we see it up here as well as in the states Quote in fact for the year 2023, 1.94 per 100,000 people in Canada were homicide victims. In comparison, 7.5 per 100,000 Americans were victims of homicide. Doesn't matter in the slightest. Nobody compared to the US to Canada as far as rates go I just said it was going up in Canada and that liberals are refusing to have a serious conversation about what the problem is and instead of going after gun owners while it continues to rise By the way here's a little chart of that not going up much thing. This is violent crime in Canada. Do you remember anything happening in 2015? Wasn't there an election? Canada: violent crime rate 2023 | Statista oh and here's the homicide rate Homicide rate in Canada 2023 | Statista hmmmm.. Things changed after 2015 again..... And most of that violence is being directed at children rather than adults Children and Youth as Victims of Violent Crime - National Victims of Crime Awareness Week Liberals in Canada are watching the crime and death rates Climb and doing nothing except attacking lawful gun owners which doesn't do a thing. So it would seem that the problem on both sides of the border are not the conservatives. You'll have to look in a mirror to see the problem Quote There are two types of people in this world: Those who can extrapolate from incomplete data

You'll have to look in a mirror to see the problem I agree that further restricting guns has not done anything to reduce crime. I was appalled when, in the aftermath of the Nova Scotia massacre in 2020, the Liberal government further restricted access to legal firearms, even though it was prevent that the perpetrator of the Nova Scotia massacre, had obtained his firearms illegally through the US.

Your magical gun-free zones will protect them! Maybe if we had bigger signs that said no guns allowed. Then the bad guys would see them and not bring guns inside! Yeah, that will save the kids! Quote

Yeah. Same with the mayerthorpe killer So at some point what needs to happen is that everyone needs to put the politics aside and take a real look at not just "gun" violence or "knife" violence etc but rather violence. What can we reasonably do about criminals who are wantonly violent? What can we do to stop violence in the home (against anyone, men women or children), what supports are needed there to reduce that. How do we catch people before they become mass killers and address them? Do we need more public training to recognize danger signs, do we need red flag rules and more psychiatric support teams, backed by legal empowerment if necessary? How can we intervene if we think there's an issue without making it worse? And of course, we need to change how we deal with violent offenders. Right now they're getting out immediately after being arrested and frequently reoffend. We also need to improve 'dangerous offender' laws so that if someone is chronically violent we can remove them from society until they're safe. It would be nice if they could smarten up in the states, they're further behind than us. Dems need to forget about gun bans and republicans need to give up their fear that ANY changes will lead to more gun bans, and they need to start talking about better models for background checks and red flag laws and educating their own people on what to look for before someone becomes homicidal etc etc. But i don't know how you get there. IF there's a shooting, there's an instant attack from the left on banning guns and an instant digging in of heels and angry replies from the republicans and that runs pretty deep now so how do you get past it?
