A 5-Day Wait: For Stun Guns???

Imposed courtesy of the Miami-Dade County Commissioners, whose motto is "Putting the People's Business First."

These are the same geniuses who came up with the "Cellular Phone Conga Line," where women who suffered domestic abuse were given used phones to call 911 after they were attacked.

"Lucy! You got some 'splainin' to do!"

"Wa-a-ahhh!!!"

The commissioners have a seasoned grasp of cause and effective responses rivaled only by the Toronto Police.

"The Gun Charges Are a Ruse"

A blogger who criticised the Libyan government online has been imprisoned for 18 months, according to Human Rights Watch. A Tripoli court convicted Abdel Raziq al-Mansuri of illegal possession of a handgun...

"The gun charges are a ruse. The authorities went after al-Mansuri because they did not like what he wrote."

Toronto Launches New Gun Amnesty

City police have launched another gun amnesty program aimed at curbing gun violence.

This time, the only incentive offered is knowing you did the right thing...Even if law-abiding citizens turn in just one weapon, Blair said that's one less gun for gangs to steal.

Translation: Please?

Pretty Please?

Jeez, dude, you people and your desperation are pathetic. Why don't you just admit you don't have a clue and you're grasping for anything to help maintain the illusion that "authorities" speak with authority?

If there was truth in media, the story would focus on the utter incompetence of the Toronto Police Chief and political establishment to address violent crime. But The London Free Press, like virtually every other urban "news"paper in North America, is too vested and mired in facist advocacy of citizen disarmament for that to happen.
