It's ok though, because we all know it.
Ban vans because they kill people!
What we need are more vans to combat this heinous act.
That was last month. 😎

Political correctness is a mental disease that can put you in slavery. The only cure is to turn on the brain.
No hope in herd immunity although we don't miss the sheep

The most recent school shooting in the U.S. left 17 high school students in Parkland, Florida, dead and 15 wounded. The total number of school shootings in the United States since the beginning of the year is 18 (or roughly three per week), according to the gun control advocacy group Everytown for Gun Safety. There have been zero school shootings in Canada during the same period.
"Americans make up about 4.4 percent of the global population but own 42 percent of the world’s guns. From 1966 to 2012, 31 percent of the gunmen in mass shootings worldwide were American, according to a 2015 study by Adam Lankford, a professor at the University of Alabama," The New York Times reports.
A review of 2015’s total for firearms-related deaths in the U.S. shows that the Gun Violence Archive (GVA) recorded 12,236 deaths and a further 24,755 injuries from shootings. This casualty toll includes 640 children aged 0-11 killed or injured by guns.
Not all these deaths were straight-up homicides. The GVA recorded 1,749 accidental shootings, 1,131 cases of ‘defensive use’, 4,028 incidents involving police, and 2,081 home invasions.
309 deaths were a result of mass shootings.
Canadian comparison
According to a StatsCan report from 2012 – the most recent year available – the U.S. suffered a total of 8,813 murders involving the use of firearms that year. Canada, in the same year, recorded just 172 firearms-related homicides.
“When looking at firearm-related homicide rates in comparable countries, Canada’s rate is about seven times lower than that of the United States (3.5 per 100,000 population), although it is higher than several other peer countries. While Canada’s firearm-related homicide rate is similar to those in Ireland and Switzerland, it is significantly higher than the rates in Japan (0.01 per 100,000 population) and the United Kingdom (0.06 per 100,000 population),” states StatsCan’s findings, which do not include Quebec figures.
