The Guns Of Vancouver

We didn't get to see the papers today until now. But it seems to us that 24 Hours really loves guns, since they featured this story, "Guns barreling North Vancouver" on the cover rather than the Grey Cup frivolity. It's an interesting choice for a paper like this. Who knew:
It's lunchtime at the family-run PHo 66 Vietnamese restaurant on Kingsway and the place is bustling. Service is friendly, and a smiling waiter drops off a bowl of noodle soup along with a plate of stir-fried prawns, then quickly melts back into the kitchen.

It's a typical lunch rush, and the buzz in the restaurant probably compares to that of a month ago, just before a gunman in his 20s walked in and opened fire on two Indo-Canadian gang members who happened to be eating there.

Now of course they are talking about illegal guns, but with some quick Google fun, you get the idea that Vancouver likes it some fire arms. But it is an interesting story nevertheless.
