A Canadian man visiting Wisconsin for a golf trip was shot and killed in a drive-by shooting while walking back to his hotel, according to multiple local reports.
Police found the victim, Giovanni Michael “Mike” Robinson, 32, suffering from a gunshot wound around 12:08 a.m. local time on Wednesday in Sheboygan Falls, according to local police. Despite life-saving measures and medical attention, Robinson was pronounced dead at the scene.
Sources tell Global News that Robinson is originally from the town of Stouffville, Ont., and was a former player in the Ontario Hockey League.
I might have gotten some facts wrong but it doesn’t change the fact that buying and selling firearms in your country is insane.
In the US anyone can skirt gun laws by buying at a firearms show. Also, there is no registry, no owner history, no limits on buying cartridges, no magazine limits, no powder limits, no bump stock regulations, no silencer regulations (anymore), no handgun regulation whatsoever, concealed carry allowed for anyone without a license in certain states, I can go on. This is irresponsible not outdated. Keep on using your minigun for hunting deer.
The fact that Switzerland can own almost as many firearms as the US or rather have an almost identical fetish with firearms as the US and not have a thousandth of the deaths related to them is very telling but keep telling yourself what you need to hear so the screams of those children who die every year needlessly dont keep you up at night.
Australia said the same thing that you are saying. IMPOSSIBLE TO GET SANE GUN LAWS IN THIS COUNTRY. They had a huge mass shooter problem but after someone with balls was elected they legislated strict firearms laws and lo and behold no more mass shooting problem.
I guess what you are saying is nobody has the balls in the US to do anything but most have thoughts and prayers for their own dead children.
There are hunters in all countries and saying the US is different is just an excuse and burying your head in the sand.
Just say you hate children.
I for one am a proud owner of firearms and would give them all up just to save one child from being hurt by irresponsible humans.
Firearms ownership is not a right it is a privilege just like driving. This is the actual issue Americans have with firearms and it warps your minds.
Like children with toys you deny reality just to have them.
