Canada police kill 'radicalized' driver after he rams two soldiers

Ain't nobody ever said that either

Marvin has a habit of doing that .... Changing a few words to suit his mantra. I have mentioned that I favor hanging if convicted by a court of law ... Marvin has changed that to I favor just hanging folks all over the place for minor crimes. You just have to give him one of his famous "pass" deals.

Actually I said you have a penchant for the extremists views if you want folks to "swing". The very views you and other denounce are the same ones you want to implement on others.

I've never seen Marvin say that, perhaps you could link to it?

The number of car deaths vs gun deaths has been posted several times here. As if saying a car is inherently more dangerous than a gun. In fact, for a while, every time a person would go on a killing spree, the car debate would sneak in there. Unless the killer was black, then comes the racism.

You didn't say Car Deaths vs. Gun deaths. You said "that say folks use cars to murder more than a gun."

That is two very different things.

They don't have violence in Canada.

Here's a Facebook commenter saying something very similar, but in a more hilarious way:

true, canada is mostly high and that's why their crime rate is so low.

In a society where guns are hard to come by it's no wonder he used a car to kill the unsuspecting victim. I wonder what weapon of choice he would have used if he lived in the U.S.? It doesn't really matter though; dead is dead no matter the weapon used.

I find this amusing, ever since the shooting, pro-gun folks have made stupid comparisons left and right all over this forum(cars, airplanes, spoons,) that say those things kill more than guns. I have yet to see anyone post stats saying that cars are used to kill multiple folks in a murder.

So...... One I guess?

Saying that something is rare or saying that something happens less often should not be interpreted as "this never happens" and saying that's what people claim. Nobody claims that.

This story changes nothing. Vehicles are still rarely used as intentional murder weapons. That remains a fact.

Canada still does not have nearly the amount of violence that the US does. That remains a fact.

However, it does not mean that vehicles are never used as weapons and Canada has no violence.

That simple.

I don't disagree with what you posted. However there is definitely an undertone of many posts on VJ that Canada is some crime-free utopia while the "evil" US of A is crime infested.

Neither is true.

I hope you're wrong. I'd hate to see Penny confined to a life of wearing lingerie and heels while she's cleaning the house and shooting a gun at the same time.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with that !

Bonus points for teaching Su how to shoot, aye?

Please - lets try to keep sexual mores out of this discussion, aye?

Who's focusing on a remote member of ISIS getting activated? Come on , that's inline with this topic and more germane to the discussion.

I think you are being too literal. I believe he was saying that it has been implied by more than a few here on VJ that many of America's social ills are extremely rare in Canada, therefore Canada's policies should be emulated here.

In one short post, you have exhibited the use of more intelligence than about 9 LWNJs all put together. Well done.

Please post the link where someone here says that never happens.

No, I asked for someone to post the statistics that a car is used more for murder than a gun. As of right now, I'm still waiting for it.

Ummm, actually, that is NOT what you asked for a link to, according to the quotes above.

It IS common for certain folks here to vehemently claim that cars are not used or designed to be a weapon, whereas a gun's ONLY purpose is to kill. Both of which are incorrect, as it obvious to those who opt to open their eyes to the world around them.

Marvin has changed his words more in this one tiny thread than a politician changes campaign promises. I'm shocked, actually.

I have. You should log in more often. You can't keep up with the BS at this rate, Teddy!

So...... One I guess?

Cute, but no. Many more than that. You have prolly said it yourself. Or maybe I am mixing you up with HM.
