Toronto police say they're looking for multiple suspects who allegedly shot at an elementary school in North York early Saturday morning.

"We're not going to ignore the obvious, you know, what occurred here and what the target of the shooting was," he said. "But at the same time, it will be wrong to just guess at this point."

What was the motivation? It's easy to say "antisemitism" but like if that was the case - why here instead of a synagogue? And why did they put in minimum effort, accomplish nothing, and quit? It doesn't make sense.

Bold of you to think bigots are rational people.

It was at night, pretty common method of intimidation. It also could've been an unrelated shooting on the street though. Dunno if more info was found.

You never half-assed something?

Personally if I had a choice I would pick lazy terrorists over hardworking ones.

You assume the perpetrators were thinking humans. That's a wild assumption.

It's important to know that they are - you gotta know how people get here to know how to prevent it
