this was no "random" act of violence. Classic mob hit.

Have to agree Terry. The sky is not falling in Ontario like some might think. lol

No one is saying that the "sky is falling in Ontario" but why is it some say I'm glad I don't live in the U.S. , but they think nothing of going down there for holidays, or even spending the whole winter, that's something that really baffles me.

I know of many people who no longer even go to Florida because it has become so dangerous. I was just talking to a retired coworker who spent the last three winters in Florida and said this was his last. He was seriously threatened at a variety store and all three young men were packing and felt his life was in danger. A couple of his other friends had similiar confrontations in the same general area and have also decided not to go back. I think you will see this more and more as time goes on in the U.S because its not getting better. I spend very little time in the U.S and may slip over to Port Huron to shop at Gander Mountain or Dicks Sporting goods only 30 mins from my home. I won't even go near Detroit that is less than an hour away from my home and know people that have been mugged and beaten up badly.
Not my idea of a vacation to live in fear.

For those that say "I'm glad I don't live in the U.S."

This does happen more in the U.S. but only because their population is about 10 times more than ours.
As I have said before our society and certain segments of it are seriously eroding, there are too many that have absolutely no respect or regard for human life.

10 per 100000 die by the gun in the USA and 2 per 100000 in Canada. Regardless of population size you have a better chance of firearm related death there.

There's a big difference between the two events. North Carolina was a mass shooting by a racist nutbar. Vaughan,given the time of day and location,was likely a targetted mob hit. Apples and oranges and an exceedingly rare occurrence.

That at was the first thing I thought when I heard it.

I went back and forth every year (sometimes twice) up until my mid 20s.
Florida was ALWAYS dangerous.

On the news they were saying this is probably the 4th hit in that local area.

Alot of the gang killings go almost unpublished except for high profile ones like these that were intended to make a statement.

So you figure it was the italian mob because it was woodbridge. Nice stereotype.
