No kidding, Sheeeze.... my mom or dad woulda kicked my ass if I brought
my handgun to the shopping mall, rifles sure, but not handguns.

This Toranto place sounds like the Wild West, if I ever visit ...I'd
want to be packing too! Might cut down on the violence.

Don't know how to tell you this, but there are a fair number of cities in
the US that have more annual homicides than the entire country of Canada. A
while back-maybe 4-5 years ago- there were two homicides in Windsor one
weekend. Windsor being the city in Canada directly across the border from
Detroit. The story made the NATIONAL newscast. Two homicides in any major US
city MIGHT merit several minutes on a local newscast.

John, several cities in America have a larger population than the
entire country of Canada.

According to Denis Leary, those statistics intimate that "Americans don't
take any ****."

I think he might have said it that way - but whichever way, it was pretty
funny!

I was making a joke, but I find it hard to imagine DeLoony being funny.

Your word works just fine Joe. I just didn't want to insist that the
correlation between zero tolerance and homicide had officially proved to be
a cause and effect relationship, so I chose 'intimate' (as in: to make known
subtly and indirectly; hint). I couldn't help but notice that anytime an ASA
poster uses words like 'definitely', 'every', and 'absolutely', it's like
putting a bullseye on their forehead!
