Robinhood Akbar?

Good thing Canada spent a billion dollars on a gun registry. Someone might have gotten shot, otherwise.

[Jewbacca]

Undoubtedly they will profile wookies.

Picture of possible suspect:

Was it an assault crossbow?

Only if it was fully automatic and had a bayonet lug.

Give the Greeks some credit, too:

Next thing you know, they will want to ban these,

What does Mooochelle have to do with it?

Wow...had no idea of the Chinese repeating crossbow from 300 BC. “...in the hands of a trained soldier, could easily launch ten bolts in fifteen seconds.” and effective to 80 meters!

“Someone needs to take a stand against those crossbows with high-cap magazines.”
You mean like this:

So the attacks were Charlton Hestons fault?

I always wondered if he was as good as he appeared!

[ProtectOurFreedom]

The quiver was attached on a Picatinny rail...VERY scary.

Alahu Crossbar!!

[Reverend Wright]

you jest, but I am embarrassed to admit there is actually a category of “prohibited” crossbows in Canada.

3 accurate shots in rapid succession? It must be an automatic crossbow.

Those who don't know an atlatl from and axolotl have never tried to fling a dart via the latter.

Since no description of the perp was given he is either black or muzzie!

Scarborough. Certainly likely to be non-white.

7.7% of Toronto is Muslim. That’s enough evidence for me to conclude the attacker was Muslim until someone proves otherwise.

Because of recent statistics, the burden of proof now lies on those to prove it was not a Muslim.

[MNDude]

“By the late 1970s a large number of Muslims had migrated and settled in the east part of Toronto which is known as Scarborough. Currently over 100,000 Muslims reside in the Scarborough area and this number is growing rapidly.”

Cool...MUCH better than the written description of how it works. The web is incredible!
