Deadly mass shooting in California erupted when toddler was cutting her birthday cake: ‘They deserve to go to hell’

The mass shooting in California that killed four people, including three kids, erupted just as a toddler was cutting cake at her 2nd birthday party, according to her mom — who said the shooters “deserve to go to hell.”

The birthday girl’s mother, Patrice Williams, said partygoers dropped to the floor as soon as the gunshots rang out inside the packed banquet hall in Stockton on Saturday.

… Authorities haven’t identified any suspects but have indicated the shooting was gang-related.


Gang related? That is cartel level violence.

‘Barely holding on’: More than 1M Ontarians visited a food bank in last year

Ontarians continue to be using food banks at a record-breaking rate, with a new report warning the number of users grew for the ninth straight year as some families are “barely holding on.”

“What we’re seeing is really a greater depth of need in with the affordability crisis,” said Carolyn Stewart, CEO of Feed Ontario which released the report. “It’s really pushing more families from really that just getting-by area to barely holding on.”


We are being asked to support our replacement. Much pushback in the comments here.

What is rarely revealed is the number of “migrants” , “foreign students”,  “TFW’s” etc… who use the foodbanks.

Conservatives say removal of religious exemption in hate-speech laws an assault on freedom of speech

OTTAWA — Conservatives say a deal between Liberals and the Bloc Québécois to remove a religious exemption from hate-speech laws in exchange for passing a bill targeting hate and terror symbols is an “assault” on freedom of speech and religion.

But the Bloc Québécois said the change was necessary to help prosecute rising hateful and antisemitic rhetoric, often made under the guise of exempted religious speech.

Germany on high alert to protect Christmas markets from terrorism

Under a rainbow-lit dome, hundreds of people gathered to drink pink glühwein and watch Jacky-Oh Weinhaus, a celebrity drag queen, at the opening week of Berlin’s LGBT Christmas market.

“This is an adult market,” said one of the security guards at the entrance, solemnly. “I have a duty to tell you your children may see pictures of penises and things of that nature.”

Until three years ago, the Christmas Avenue festival was held out in the open on Nollendorfplatz, the heart of the gay district, immortalised nearly a century ago by the Berlin novels of Christopher Isherwood.
