The Americas Canadian mass shooter kills 16 over course of rampage; Not your average mass shooting

Why be boring?

Because apparently, IRL most armies in more primitive times just used pikes as weapons instead of that big variety of swords, knives, axes, maces, war hammers, war scythes etc

Even if that were the case, the lunatics will still get the guns no matter how much we try to legislate the problem away.

If there's no guns they'll resort to sharp or blunt weapons next.

unlikely what they will use is cars and just run people over, doing such would probally kill more people then using guns.

Home-made explosives would be my guess, or perhaps arson. If you think about it, with enough preparation, you can cause way more harm with those that with a gun.

A car is the perfect weapon for a blunt object with the Isis terrorist attack in France as an example.

A return of the Unabomber or random shit from back then. I remember one that had some rich daughter getting kidnapped and coerced into some terrorist movement.

Then they’ll soon have licenses to even buy butter knives

Probably gonna be many home made weaponry

Could use that as an excuse to “check” people’s houses from now on

Honestly, using mandatory asylums would probably be the real solution to lessen these sudden mass murders

Well it happened guys: Trudeau has just passed more gun control making guns of the type the shooter didn't even use illegal. You did it Canada! Gun crime is no more! All it took was destroying the freedoms of law abiding citizens.

Justin Trudeau says new gun control legislation in Canada is coming very soon

Canada's federal government is doing everything it can right now to implement stricter gun control regulations after a mass shooting left at least ...

Controversial Canadian firearms control bill passes

It’s called Bill C-71 and it introduces some new measures alleged to better control firearms in Canada. The bill has now passed the Senate with the majority of independent senators supporting their Liberal colleagues. The bill is awaiting Royal assent before becoming law. The proposed legislatio

And with no consent from parliament, because what modern democracy needs to listen to the representatives of its people. Never let a good crisis go to waste guys.

That's a bad idea, but in many ways Trudue might just be remembered as the man who destroyed Canada if they don't thread that needle their going to have a bad time.

Canada had a change to get rid of the guy last year, but didn't manage it. They're going to regret that.

The Sultan of Can'adajamibad has spoken inshallah!

A weak man making snap kneejerk choices to try and 'solve' a problem by attacking the tool used.

Oh boy, if this is true, I hope it becomes a massive shitshow for Trudeau (although he managed to somehow beat guilt for brownface, so who knows anymore):

The Nova Scotia shooter case has hallmarks of an undercover operation - Macleans.ca

Police sources say the killer's withdrawal of $475,000 was highly irregular, and how an RCMP ‘agent’ would get money

www.macleans.ca

The withdrawal of $475,000 in cash by the man who killed 22 Nova Scotians in April matches the method the RCMP uses to send money to confidential informants and agents, sources say.

Gabriel Wortman, who is responsible for the largest mass killing in Canadian history, withdrew the money from a Brink’s depot in Dartmouth, N.S., on March 30, stashing a carryall filled with hundred-dollar bills in the trunk of his car.

According to a source close to the police investigation the money came from CIBC Intria, a subsidiary of the chartered bank that handles currency transactions.

Sources in both banking and the RCMP say the transaction is consistent with how the RCMP funnels money to its confidential informants and agents, and is not an option available to private banking customers.

A Mountie familiar with the techniques used by the force in undercover operations, but not with the details of the investigation into the shooting, says Wortman could not have collected his own money from Brink’s as a private citizen.

“There’s no way a civilian can just make an arrangement like that,” he said in an interview.

He added that Wortman’s transaction is consistent with the Mountie’s experience in how the RCMP pays its assets. “I’ve worked a number of CI cases over the years and that’s how things go. All the payments are made in cash. To me that transaction alone proves he has a secret relationship with the force.”

A second Mountie, who does not know the first one but who has also been involved in CI operations, also believes that Wortman’s ability to withdraw a large sum of money from Brink’s is an indication that Wortman had a link with the police. “That’s tradecraft,” the Mountie said, explaining that by going through CIBC Intria, the RCMP could avoid typical banking scrutiny, as there are no holds placed on the money.

“That’s what we do when we need flash money for a buy. We don’t keep stashes of money around the office. When we suddenly need a large sum of money to make a buy or something, that’s the route we take. I think [with the Brink’s transaction] you’ve proved with that single fact that he had a relationship with the police. He was either a CI or an agent.”

Didn't the Las Vegas shooter also have weird, sketchy government connections? Seems like there aren't a lot of good psych screenings for government informants if that's true.

That article is pretty damning. Basically, the TLDR is that he did stuff that should have been flat out impossible if he wasn't connected to the mounties. The next article down on the same page seems to indicate strongly that the Candian government is trying their hardest to not investigate.
