    Default West Edmonton Mall shooting?

    WEM is on lockdown, apparently multiple reports of a shooting but nothing confirmed by EPS yet.

    https://globalnews.ca/news/9911045/w...mall-lockdown/

    Social media showing people locked in various stores, lights off.

    Hopefully it's not as serious as it appears to be.

    They're certainly big, but I don't know if they are the BEST I've tasted.

    Well imagine if instead of writing that letter to the editor, she just posts on a car forum for car enthusiasts. That's Kritafo.

    Well if that’s the case, hasn’t been newsworthy the last 20 years.

    "Preliminary investigations give police reason to believe that this incident was a targeted event, and the parties are known to each other," Tames said.
    Being in a gang is dangerous.

    Wanna know where you are most likely to be murdered? Winnipeg, Saskatoon and Regina. Calgary and Edmonton are waaay down the list of cities in Canada with concerning murder rates.

    Demographics at WEM were very Regina~esque the last couple times I've been there.

    Depends how you view the data, by numbers or per 100,000.

    https://www150.statcan.gc.ca/t1/tbl1...pid=3510007101

    Winnipeg and Edmonton are at the top, followed by Calgary then Regina and Saskatoon if you go by yearly numbers. Winnipeg and Edmonton aren't my top two cities to live in or visit regardless.

    Also true, usually a close family member, or a member of your gang, or of a rival gang. Extremely rare to be someone who doesn't know you well.

    Sounds like Regina is a lot of fun.

    If I'm not mistaken, the vast majority of shooting incidents in Canada are due to gang violence, whereas in the USA, guns are commonly used to back up virtually any crime - from burglary to homicide. It's unnerving when incidents like this happen in public places, though luckily the target is rarely innocent. I'm more concerned about stray bullets, etc. It seems there is a death every couple of years in Toronto alone for those being caught in crossfire.
