Interesting that this half wit moron who is the mayor of Toronto blames US gun laws for the crime rate in Canada.. & of course that knucklehead Bloomberg is with him.

We should now blame alcoholism on Canada.

So Canada's lax alcohol control policies were responsible for Al Capone and the beginning of organized crime in the US during the 20's? Does anybody know which major party Toronto's mayor is from? Stalinist? Maoist? Trotskyite?

I'm sure that it's Boston's lax gun laws in particular that are responsible for Canada's problem.

Canada has twice the rate of violent crime that the U.S. does, and more non-violent crime too. According to the FBI’s Bureau of Justice, U.S. Violent crime rate for 2005 (the latest full year available) was 469.2 violent crimes per 100,000 people, Canada's (according to Canada’s National Statistical Agency) was 942.9 per 100,000 people. Property crimes: The U.S. had 3429.8 per 100.000, Canada had 3737.6 per 100,000.

While lower than ours, their homicide rates have been rising over the past three years, as have their gun crimes.

If anything, we should be blaming them!

Why can't people suck it up like real men and take responsibility for themselves? Damn pussies. Just like Menino!

Maybe, just maybe these towns are full of scum bags, crack and other wonderful things. It coulnd't be their own people huh?
