Politics

Not really, I don't think. The laws in these countries have been written to make any use of force by civilians a crime. Any competent prosecutor would get a guilty finding from any average jury. Things may not be as bad as it.looks to me as a US citizen, but I have read enough about guilty findings in the UK to believe that it is.
It is very difficult to compare, because there are several different self defense standards in the United States, but I don't think many Americans really understand the Canadian law on self-defense. To be fair lots of Canadians don't either.

There is no duty to retreat in Canada, and as long as the force used to respond to the threat is reasonable and proportionate, you are good to go.

And the news update right above that is that one of the shooters has been on the authority’s radar since 2019.

These people will go after any issue but the real ones.
As with.Liberals everywhere, every tragedy is an opportunity to restrict the rights of the people. A tragedy is a terrible thing to waste.

While I would like to believe that"s true, why don't Canadians have the right to possess handguns? I heard from Canadians when I.hunted in BC that there is a ready black.market for handguns among the criminal element.

Just to clarify we still have the right to possess our handguns we just cannot initiate a transfer meaning that I cannot purchase any more sell the ones I own or have anyone inherit them. It’s still bullshit but we still can legally possess what we do own.

So what happens when you pass?

Well that keeps the government from having to buy them. They just have to wait a little longer to get them. I'm guessing there is no legal way to carry them? Can you shoot them legally?
 
Yes they can still legally be transported to a gun range and used or to a smith for service/repair, you hit the nail on the head when you said it was a way for the government to seize them without any out of pocket expense.

There are legal ways to carry a handgun in Canada wilderness protection for instance is one of them, self defence however is not grounds for a atc (authorization to carry)
 
The Syrian born Australian hero took the correct legal action. If the guy on the ground was no longer armed and he shot the terrorist while he was retreating or crawling away like a bug. In a liberal setting he could definitely be prosecuted.

Be careful when posting online on how you would have shot him. It can be used against you if you are ever in a similar situation. The argument is. you think you are Clint Eastwood or Charles Bronson. Looking for trouble.
Babylon Bee is on the job.

For now….
 
I have no earthly idea what you are trying to say. On the other hand, I think I was pretty clear - I voted for him as the lesser of two evils. With respect to what I believe are our critical international interests, he sadly has been even worse than I expected.
I will take that as a compliment regardless of how it was intended. maybe a couple of shots of Chevis regal would make it clearer. However if enough people feel as you do about Trump we can have Nancy Pelosi's nephew [by marriage] ,Gavin Newsom as our president in 2028, and he can eloquently sort the mess out, and return us to sanity, with open borders, more taxes, more gov. handouts ,and more gun control, and more protection for terrorist ect.

I purchaed a 45 about a month ago and noticed a few changes in the form ,one was do you intend to sell this gun. Never saw that before.
 
"However if enough people feel as you do about Trump"

Feel about Trump? It's perfectly reasonable to expect the president to act, well, ... presidential. Really, expecting the leader of the free world to act like an adult seems like a pretty low bar. But if your expectations are something less than that, then we're not going to agree on a lot.

Spouting lies like they are truth (Ukraine started it) and doubling down on a murder victim being dead because he was deranged? Why yes, I expect more and better thank you very much.
