Commenting on the mass shooting in Nova Scotia on Saturday, in which at least 18 people were killed along with the alleged shooter, Rev. Franklin Graham said Canada "has some of the strictest gun laws in the world" but "criminals don't obey" gun control laws.

Graham also noted that London's gun laws apparently do not deter criminals because in recent years there has been an increase in knife attacks. Now, policy-makers want to impose tougher "knife control" laws, he said.

Thanks Rev. Graham. Meanwhile in the state of Virginia. The blackfaceklanrobe gov with a "gabby" pushes more law abiding citizens towards becoming criminals for believing in the 2nd amendment.

"Criminals 'Don't Obey' Gun Laws"

Everyone with a functioning brain knows that.

If you are a complete lunatic and you’re hellbent on killing... There isn’t a gun law in the world that’ll stop you.

Gun laws keep guns out of the hands of lawful citizens... Period!

[fella]

This N.S. mass murder story seems to have disappeared in double-quick time.

[rktman]

That’s why some with a “gabby” don’t get it.

[butlerweave]

Dressed as an RCMP office and stopped people on the Highway then shot them ?

[Telepathic Intruder]

Clearly we no only need to ban guns, but illegal guns as well.

Rev. Franklin Graham said Canada "has some of the strictest gun laws in the world" but "criminals don't obey" gun control laws.

Which we all know and dems will not nor cannot admit.

[metmom]

TROP?

Within two to three hours of driving time from the Maritime provinces (Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, and Prince Edward Island) are U.S. states Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont which have constitutional carry and very casual laws involving the acquisition and possession of most other types of firearms and also have homicide rates that are not dissimilar from those neighbouring Canadian provinces and also Quebec.

Many other concealed or constitutional carry states like Montana, the Dakotas, and Idaho immediately border Canada also exhibit homicide rates not dissimilar from BC, Alberta, Saskatchewan, and Manitoba.

Why can’t Canada hold a HUGE Beer Summit with the thugs?

[marktwain]

We do not know all of what he used, but at the end he was using a gun taken from a Royal Canadian Mounted Police lady.

[OttawaFreeper]

It would also be interesting to take out black on black homicide numbers in Minneapolis-St Paul, Milwaukee, Detroit, and Cleveland and you would probably have those states (MN, WI, MI, and OH) having homicide rates that were not terribly different from neighbouring Ontario as well. And you could probably do the same for Atlanta, Memphis, Dallas, New Orleans, and elsewhere like that in the South and see those homicide numbers look that bit different.

[fella]

Victims of N.S. mass murder. I bet everyone of them wished they had access to a pistol to fight back with in their final moments.

[Bommer]

This is Trudis big chance to fufill his dream.....ban thumbs and trigger fingers!

[Carriage Hill]

It’s the water.

[frank ballenger]

Boy those gun free zone signs really work. /s

Too bad Canadian signs were in French. And criminals can’t read.

[SkyDancer]

Hey, a quick question: which would you rather have in a firefight - a 5.56 or .30 M1 carbine? (asking for someone).

[2111USMC]

I know you didn’t direct the question to me but I would go with the 5.56 because it has a higher velocity and longer effective range.

The .30 cal. M1 Carbine shoots a pistol caliber cartridge.
