Martini recently posted…"All things being equal, it looks like you are more likely to experience a mass shooting incident as a citizen of Canada than you would in the U.S." You based it on number of Mass Kiilings in Canada and US from 2011 to 2018 compared to the population of each country.

 

You based it on based on 7 "Mass Killings" from 2011 to 2018 in Canada. Here is a summary of the 7…..

 

2011 Killed ex girlfriend and her 3 friends 

2012 Killed 2 Daycare worker and self

2014 Killed 8 relatives 

2014 Killed 3 Royal Mounted Police 

2016 Killed 2 cousins, teacher, and assistant

2016 Killed 3 with bow and arrow

2017 Killed 8 at Mosque

 

Now, compare that to US. The minimum deaths per incident is 9.

 

2012 Sandy Hook 27

2012 Aurora 12

2013 DC Navy Yard 12

2015 San Bernardino 14

2015 Umpqua Comm College 9

2016 Orlando Nightclub 49

2017 Sutherland Church 26

2017 Las Vegas 58

2018 Stoneman High School 17

 

The only one in Canada that qualifies as random Mass Killing is the mosque. 2 and 3 killed, while sad, is not a Mass Killing.

 

Martini, spend a few minutes next time and include the source and/or facts. I guess the facts just got in the way. Kinda like Hannity, Rush and the rest of your normal sources. Once again your church taught education let you down.

Of the mass killers in the US, tell us how many were liberal idiot dimokraps, and how many were Republicans and card carrying NRA members.  I say again, take guns away from dimokraps and cut murder rate in US by 82.4%.

Hey dummy, I'm not the one that came up with the definition of mass shooting.  Fact is you are more likely to experience one in Canada than here.

I think I got. US was safer during the Obama years. But, 2018 under Trump it has turned and Canada is now safer with no incidents to our 1.

And if you want to look at it that way there have been no mass shooting today in either country - so we are equally as well off.

 

One thing that the post that Martini's "fake post" does not address is the population size.

 

According to various sites we are around 327 million in the US,  Canada is around 35 million.  So during the time frame that Martini was posting about - all things being equal we should almost 10 times as many "mass killings" as Canada, but of course that all depends on whos definition of mass killing, slaughter by automatic firearms, random acts of violence by firearms and how you want to narrow the time lines.  Statistics can be made to lie about anything based on how you bracket the data.
