We are all Torontonians now

Sorry, Justin... no deer... no AR15s...insert alt text here...just a running gun-battle in a graveyard...
Three people have been injured • two critically • after shootings at the Brampton Funeral Home and Cemetery at the corner of Chinguacousy Road and Bovaird Drive West just before 3:45 p.m. Monday afternoon.

“The gist of the call was that there were upwards of six or seven individuals who were shooting at each other,” said Const. Bancroft Wright.
Brampton, Brampton... that sounds so familiar.

UPDATE: Those horrible, violent Canadians!
This was an all-out, Wild West-style shootout that took place Monday among tombstones while people gathered to pay respects to a murdered Brampton man, Britton Francis Edwards, 23, whose four-year-old shooting remains unsolved.
These knuckleheads know how to hold a grudge, I'll give them that.

MEANWHILE BACK AT THE RANCH:
A man has serious injuries after an early morning shooting in a building near Military Trail and Morningside Avenue in Scarborough on Tuesday.
TIME TRAVEL WITH ME TO 2007:

I'm so old I remember the "black intelligence unit"...
Its focus: the black-on-black shootings that were fuelling the worst wave of gun crimes the city has ever seen.
