Trust me, its that easy. Very few wear "I'm with stupid" t-shirts.

You guys obviously don't know the process of getting an PAL, If you can be sane for a week you've got a gun

if memory serves me correctly, separate entrances to the resi and the hotel no?

so no more unsafe than any area where a random guy whips out a gun

Yup, that's correct. Residential entrance has it's own lobby which is located on the corner where the ice cream shop is but I believe all the elevators in the building were shutdown. Surprisingly a lot of foreign students live at the Fairmont Pacific Rim, a lot of foreign investments.

Wow. I find it almost incomprehensible that there are doctors that are that illogical in their thought process. Glad they're not lawyers.

It's a random event. Can happen anywhere. Probably more likely to happen at whatever place they do move to than again at the same place.

Sarcasm detector overload! Easy, cowboy... that wasn't intended as a slight to Jah Dean. It was to convey how dumb his tenants' comment was, and maybe it wouldn't be a bad thing if they actually did move out.

dude was admitted to the psych unit overnight in the hospital with cops watching him. not sure about now, probably will get arrested after hes discharged.

shawnly1000 10-17-2012 12:05 PM

According to Global News, he is the same guy that drove a pickup truck into the RCH ER entrance recently.
