Apparently there was a handgun involved! My question is was this a legally owned handgun! Ya right it was used in the commission of a crime, by a criminal which the victim had never seen before. When they find the men I am sure our really good justice system will make them pay dearly! NOT, so the circle will continue where the criminals will get a slap on the wrist, bad boy, our front line officers and public will be at more risk and the law abiding citizens of this country will have tougher gun laws imposed on them! This is the good old Liberal way of doing things! Just saying, safe day to all first responders, would like to say the government has your back, that is falsehood!
There is more gun control coming! Lol, Bill Blair and Trudeau are going to solve this! All our police officers will be able to go home they will not be required! Lol!
