They offer a clue on how something already horrifying could even be a worse nightmare. It’s already clownishly out of control.
Just look at what happened during the last 24 hours.
A man was murdered in a shooting at the Walmart at St. Clair Ave. and Runnymede Rd. during the middle of the afternoon; a shot was fired into a restaurant at Bloor St. and Brock Ave.; and two people were wounded during Wednesday night’s Toronto Raptors playoff game at an outdoor patio at Wilson Ave. and Stradacona Dr.
And there were other incidents of gunfire, too, including near a school at Kipling Ave. and Widdicombe Hill Blvd.
If you want to extend this mayhem to a 48 hour period, we can bring up the 80 bullets flying at an after-hours club in southern Etobicoke.
It all makes last week’s shoot up at Spence’s Bakery that saw six hit in a cowardly drive-by shooting seem like years ago.
What was that about defunding policing again Councillors Kristyn Wong-Tam and Josh Matlow?
Are you sure? Are you out of your minds?
It’s time for Mayor John Tory and Toronto councillors to get their heads out of the sand and take a look around. It’s ugly.
“On this beautiful and sunny day in Nathan Phillips Square we officially started the construction of the new Toronto Sign,” tweeted Tory Thursday. “The sign has become an iconic landmark in our city attracting residents from all over the city and visitors from all over the world.”
When installed, don’t light the sign up for as many days as there have been shootings. That will keep it dark for a few years. There is nothing to celebrate here.
Toronto is a dangerous war zone. Saying it’s safe is a lie.
Perhaps the Raptors and Blue Jays — and other teams so eager to partake in anti-police protesting — could boycott some games in angry protest of the murderous gangs ruining our great Toronto.
“We have to bring the hammer down,” Premier Doug Ford said this week.
Great words but for meant for people attending parties and weddings over social distancing and mask violations.
We need some disgust directed at the evil gun-toting gangsters who are the ones really in charge here. Shooting at will wherever they like, gangsters must be laughing their faces off at the politically-correct and lame response directed at them!
If you keep count, Toronto is now at 350 shooting incidents for the 2020 pandemic year — 51 more than at this time in 2019. We are at 170 wounded or killed compared this time in 2019 when we had 167.
Who knows how many bullets have been fired and who they could have struck?
