News / Politics / Activism Media continues to lie.
After the shooting at the Toronto festival, multiple media outlets have reported that the Toronto Police Chief has called for “gun control” and “tougher gun laws” in response to what happened.
However, the reports are highly misleading and inaccurate.
He actually called for tougher sentencing for those who commit firearms offences, especially in crowds.
He said: “We need some reforms that address that and recognize that if you pull out a gun in a public space, in a public square or the Eaton Centre or any other public gathering and fire it indiscriminately, that should be treated with the utmost seriousness in the law.”
This is just one of many examples that prove how biased the media is. Everyone knows that “gun control” refers to laws restricting the acquisition, transfer and possession of firearms, not tougher sentences for things that are already illegal, everywhere.
Make no mistake, the media is not on our side.

Im pretty sure pulling out a gun in a public setting is already illegal... what we actually need is a government and judges who do their damn job and protect the public.
Wasn't the guy out on bail for manslaughter, if I recall correctly, AND wanted in the US for arms trafficking? Yet some bleeding heart judge decided "oh yes, this fellow NEEDS to be free and in the public! What a great benefit to society he is!"
Its about time judges start getting charged for negligent death when they release repeat violent offenders who then go on to murder some innocent victim. Its actually despicable what our judges do. Something like 50% of the murders in Canada, are committed by people OUT ON BAIL!
So, no media, what we DONT need is more laws, what we NEED is to get rid of activist bleeding heart judges and prosecutors who are genuinely endangering and harming the public day after day. Its actually disgusting that this is even allowed to go on in this country. We should be building HUGE prisons and anyone with multiple violent convictions gets thrown into one, and the key thrown away for a few decades, like a 3 strikes law for violent offenses. Make them work too, so it's not just a free ride for them on the taxpayer dime. Sick of this bullshit where EVERY tragedy is followed up by "suspect was known to police" and "suspect was out on bail". These judges are borderline treasonous.
