rodger. Posted October 22, 2014 Report Share Posted October 22, 2014 Today a Canadian soldier standing guard at a memorial was shot dead, and another gunman opened fire in the center block of Parliament hill in Ottawa. Media is still releasing details, but the war on terror has hit close to home today. Its a sad and confusing day. Out prime minister is scheduled to speak tonight to the country.

Popular Post Boatworks Today Posted October 22, 2014 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 22, 2014 Been following this on the news Stateside... I seem to mumble this to myself everyday, but just ONCE I'd like to get through an entire day without having to ask myself, "What the HELL is wrong with people !!!??" Unfortunately you can't fix stupid, and can't predict crazy.. Sorry Pug. Hopefully this comes to an end soon with no more innocent loss... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveT Posted October 22, 2014 Report Share Posted October 22, 2014 I really cannot understand - on any level, these random shootings that seem to happen with increasing frequency. My thoughts go out to the family and friends of those involved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric. Posted October 23, 2014 Report Share Posted October 23, 2014 Ditto Andy. Sorry about that bad deal up there, Pug. Hate to say it, but I think I'm getting a bit desensitized to the never-ending stream of insanity out there. All you can do is hope that it doesn't land right in your backyard. Getting off the grid entirely seems a better idea every day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wtnhighlander Posted October 23, 2014 Report Share Posted October 23, 2014 ABC news reported that the rise in terror attacks may be attributed to the increased effort toward preventing North American ISIS sympathizers from leaving for the middle east. Perhaps there should be more effort put toward preventing them from COMING BACK! My mind fails to comprehend how anyone can 'sympathize' with a group that espouses such horrific tactics, regardless of what they claim for motivation. To the individuals involved, my heart is heavy for each and every one, perpetrator as well as victim. Actions may be dispicable, but people are still people, and it saddens me to know that those who commit such foul deeds actually believe that they are in the right.
