The Nova Scotia shooter was once convicted of assault but managed to get that wiped eventually (obviously a whole other story)
The Vegas shooter had no criminal record at all.
The Greyhound murderer had no criminal record.
No doubt the justice system could be improved, but there are no easy solutions. Longer sentences for recidivists? Probably a good idea, but I'm sure there are plenty of consequences that are hard to fathom from our armchairs.
