Canada claims the US is exporting gun violence!

I say Canada is importing violence!

Can't they control their own borders?

What a bunch of whining girly men!

Amen!

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.

People are people. The article points that out. Given similar circumstances,
expect similar results.
The linked article highlights an odd blend of arrogance and naiveté on the
part of Canadians, but that's not surprising. They are good and decent
folks, but they've mistakenly taken credit for an achieving success before
facing any challenge. And right in stride, having faced the challenge and
then the taste of harsh reality, they'd like to blaim someone else.
They can't even blaim terrorists, afterall, they took their side. So, it
must be America's fault.

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

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!
