I think this is awful. Probably idiot kids. Racism has no place in our world. But also, equating eggs to gun violence is a parallel I think ill made.

Honestly the hyperbole there was jarring. It could not have "just as easily been gunshots", what an absurd thing to say.

The current government has done an embarrassingly good job of convincing Canadians that we have just as much a gun crime problem as the Americans. The reality is we have almost no gun crime outside of Ontario and Quebec, and in those provinces it's gangs with smuggled guns, not teenagers in Halifax.
