N.S. shooter didn't own guns legally. Guns weren't legal. Stop attacking law-abiding gun owners, not their fault

[Liberals are VERMIN!]

Meanwhile, WHERE are the descriptions of the weapons used? Media cover-up? Don't fit the liberal narrative on a gun problem?

[Dave Smith]

That idiot Trudeau is already talking about increased gun control. Those
idiot Liberals just don't understand that criminals don't obey the law.
Over the last year we had almost daily hand gun shootings in Toronto
and Hamilton, almost every one of them committed by young black males
who have no PALs and no legally acquired handguns. Instead of stepping
up enforcement against black gangs they stopped carding.... which led to
an almost immediate 50% increase in shootings.

[Liberals are VERMIN!]

When I was interviewed by the RCMP for a restricted firearm license (1990's) they told me that if I'd been living in one of "those" areas (where the blacks live in Toronto), I wouldn't be granted the license, even with a spotless background check. Most of the murders in Toronto are committed by blacks and they only represent about 10-11% of the population and we have at least a dozen other ethnicities living in Toronto who don't go around shooting people.

[Dave Smith]

There can be a special kind of stupid when dealing with Toronto. There
was a case a number of years ago where a man was charged with unsafe
storage of firearms after his apartment was broken into and a number of
firearms stolen. I later learned that he might be extended family,
because he is the cousin of my niece's husband.

The news articles at the time indicated that the police determined that
it had taken the thieves two days to break into the guy's gun safe.

Two days to break into a gun safe sounds like they were pretty fucking
secure to me.

I remember that case.

With rifles, there is no set storage law, you can even display them, with a trigger lock, though a safe is saner. Handguns are different. "A safe or a locked metal box, within a locked metal box bolted to a wall stud or floor."

[Dave Smith]

I don't know where you got your information. There are set storage
regulations for non restricted firearms.

[Storage of Non-Restricted Firearms] 5. (1) An individual may store a
non-restricted firearm only if

(a) it is unloaded;

(b) it is

(i) rendered inoperable by means of a secure locking device,

(ii) rendered inoperable by the removal of the bolt or
bolt-carrier, or

(iii) stored in a container, receptacle or room that is kept
securely locked and that is constructed so that it cannot readily be
broken open or into; and

(c) it is not readily accessible to ammunition, unless the
ammunition is stored, together with or separately from the firearm, in a
container or receptacle that is kept securely locked and that is
constructed so that it cannot readily be broken open or into.

> Handguns are different.

Not really. There are options.

STORAGE OF RESTRICTED FIREARMS 6. An individual may store a restricted
firearm only if (a) it is unloaded;

(b) it is

(i) rendered inoperable by means of a secure locking device and stored
in a container, receptacle or room that is kept securely locked and that
is constructed so that it cannot readily be broken open or into, or

(ii) stored in a vault, safe or room that has been specifically
constructed or modified for the secure storage of restricted firearms
and that is kept securely locked; and

(c) it is not readily accessible to ammunition, unless the ammunition is
stored, together with or separately from the firearm, in

(i) a container or receptacle that is kept securely locked and that is
constructed so that it cannot readily be broken open or into, or

(ii) a vault, safe or room that has been specifically constructed or
modified for the secure storage of restricted firearms and that is kept
securely locked.

The shooter didn't own a police cruiser legally either. Maybe Justin will
move to ban police cars.

[Dave Smith]

One of the issues that the anti gun crew while about is that legally
owned handguns might get stolen and used in crimes. Now it turns out
that the guy killed a Mountie and stole her gun and extra magazines. I
don't know when was the last time that a legally owned gun in Canada was
linked to a killing, but they seem to think that the possibility of it
happening is enough to ban them from licensed owners. Now w but now we
have a document case of police officer's gun being taken and used in a
mass shooting. I guess that means that even police officers should not
be allowed to carry firearms.

https://www.ctvnews.ca/canada/n-s-shooter-handcuffed-assaulted-his-girlfriend-before-mass-killing-1.4908549 according to this at one point two RCMP officers were shooting at another officer at a fire station and that the fire station was hit by bullets.

https://nationalpost.com/news/canada/nova-scotia-schooter-gabriel-wortman-had-a-domestic-dispute-with-girlfriend-before-going-on-a-killing-spree the spree killer owned 4 mock police cruisers. This dude had been plotting this slaughter for some time. Perhaps he was hoping to set up his own 4 person detachment of killers?
