Darn those gun laws.

[RandomPoster]

Does anyone know if any of the deaths were from the criminal's arson?

 

[Rigby5]

Not really.
We know the causes of crime, like poverty, injustice, lack of opportunity, etc.
With the US, likely the most important things are lack of health care and the War on Drugs.

Hmmmm. I mention how helpless the US is in the face of mass shootings and you deflect to crime. Any particular reason?

That wasn't a deflection a large number of gun deaths in America are due to criminal activity.
You fix the criminal system you'll fix the gun death problem

About 80% of gun deaths can likely be attributed to the War on Drugs.
Not only has the War on Drugs greatly enticed crime by raising drug profits, but has forced a huge increase in illegal gun trafficing, since dealers can't use banks or police to protect their cash. Add turf wars onto that, and you can easily see how our own laws are the main causes.

There was a war on Alcohol back in the early 20th century. Look where that got us.
Path to gun control.

Yes, the St. Valentines Day Massacre was entirely created and caused by the Prohibition of Alcohol. It is inevitable. You try to outlaw something people do not feel should be outlawed, and all it does is increase profits, become more enticing, and also far more dangerous, as the large cash sums have no protection.

There has been a Mass shooting in Canada, of all places. Unfortunately killing 16 people. How are those gun laws working?

16 Killed in Mass Shooting Rampage in Rural Nova Scotia Town

Canada needs to ban AR15s.

.

At the very least ban AR14s

Or go twice as good and ban AR30s.

Why ban AR-15s?
First of all, one can easily kill as many or more, much faster, with a pump shotgun, a pair of pistols, or just about any small caliber rifle.
The only reason there are about 20 million AR-15s owned in the US, is because they are inexpensive and everyone get familiar with the same internal operation from the military M-4.
But they are almost never used in crime in the US or Canada, so then what would be the point of making them illegal?
People intent on mass murder are not going to be stopped by the weapon being illegal.

I think you missed my sarcasm.

Canada already banned the AR15, and they just had their worst shooting ever.

.

I had not kept up.
In fact, I still can not find anything saying the AR-15 is illegal in Canada?
There was a proposal in Sept to ban it, but I though it was dropped?

A short history of the AR-15 in Canada

Some Canadian gun advocates claim military-style assault weapons like the AR-15 have never been used to commit crimes in Canada. That’s inaccurate.

The second amendment is the law of the land. It specifically says "The right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed" The Bill of rights is not the Bill of Needs therefore a right is not based on a need.
