-- TORONTO -- Four men were shot Wednesday night in a gun fight in the city’s inner north-west, less than two kilometres from the site of another gun battle that injured a man earlier this summer.
Reports of the incident stated that one group of young men had approached another at the townhouse complex, then shots rang out. But police spokeswoman Constable Isabelle Cotton could not confirm those details on Thursday morning.
“I don’t know if it’s gang related,” she said.
Yeah... maybe a dozen guys were just cleaning their guns... out there on the stoop.What exactly was your last assignment, Isabelle... patrolling Sesame Street?

FUZZY-BUNNY JUSTICE SYSTEM UPDATE:
Two men convicted of manslaughter in the fatal Boxing Day shooting of 15-year-old Jane Creba were sentenced today to 12 years in prison. But, with a credit of eight years and five months, Louis Woodcock, 23, and Tyshaun Barnett, 22, will only serve three years and seven months.No wonder these dickhead thugs aren't afraid of "the system."
Those Conservative Party tough on crime measures can't be implemented soon enough for me.
Remember, friends don't let friends vote liberal.
