Toronto Police Superintendant Rob Johnson said there was an altercation between groups of men in Toronto’s Yorkdale Mall and one of them fired a handgun at least twice. “Nobody was hit,” he said.

Johnson said two people suffered minor injuries while trying to flee the mall. Police said they were looking for multiple suspects, including two men in their 20s, and said one had a handgun.

The mall was on lockdown and nobody was being let in. Police said the incident happened in the east side of the mall and were looking for witnesses and video. Hundreds of people milled about outside the mall after the incident.

For some reason, I saw “Strippers” instead of “Shoppers” at the first glance... and I thought “Now THERE’S a mall I need to shop at..”

Could be the bourbon, I dunno..

“Groups of men” = “Members of protected minority group.”

When the identities are assiduously avoided in this country they are either Negroes or Moslems. In Canada the perps almost havel to be Moslems.

I enjoy Irish Whiskey.
Bourbons are good too.
A shot or two a day keeps the blood flowing, helps to unwind after a long day at work.

Ann Coulter Rule. The longer we wait for them to disclose race, the more likely it is a “protected class”.

That mall is now dead. Nobody will go there any longer to shop.

ONE SHOT was fired in a mall where I live, and it died.
