Wrong question. You should be asking if it involved someone with a firearms license. The type of firearm used is irrelevant, despite what the Liberals would like us to believe.

I'm only asking that question because the article is about assault-style firearms, and OP said they are pushing the article based on shootings that may, or may not, involve assault-style weapons.

I wasn't implying anything about general firearms issues or licensing.

Yeah, I understand why you asked what you did, but the issue is that it accepts the premise that guns are the issue in the first place. That's how the Liberals have been able to push gun control (and other policies, such as their justice reforms in favour of criminals): by placing the blame on things rather than people.
