if the shooter did not know the victims, this could be the worst massacre in Canada in nearly 3 decades https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_o...cres_in_Canada | |

Please remember guys...if you start noticing patterns like...where the shooter is from or of what background and faith IGNORE that part of the brain. Recognizing patterns serve no evolutionary purpose and is basically racism. Make sure to open your borders and most importantly do no vetting or background checks
#openborders #fuckhavinglaws #allarewelcomeILiveInAbubble
No I'm not going to say rip because that's a shitty soundbite and means nothing. If you really care vote for a sane person that will protect you and your citizens from this. The other option is to always go "Ohhh noooo how could this happen" and do nothing to protect your self and just keep repeating "oh nooo howw??" when it occurs again.

So far they think the shooters are Alexandre Bissonnette and Mohamed Khadir and said to have heavy Quebecois accents. Being racist I will assume at least one of them is white

The shooter, Bissonette (a proper dickhead) actually called 911 after the shooting to express his guilt. The SAQ then took him into custody shortly after. As of now, the authorities think he is the only shooter.
The crazy thing is that he seemed to be just a normal guy. What makes someone snap like this?

After his parents separated when he was seven, his mother returned to nursing to support her children. Lépine and his younger sister lived with other families, seeing their mother on weekends. Lépine was considered bright but withdrawn and having difficulties with peer and family relationships. He changed his name to Marc Lépine at the age of 14 giving as the reason his hatred of his father. | CN's:
-Had an Algerian father who hated women
-Single mother worked long hours unable to raise her kids
-He was socially awkward
-He was a piece of shit
Also, Quote: |
He had long complained about women working in non-traditional jobs
| I wonder where this line of thinking came from?
Maybe from his father? Quote: |
Divorce papers obtained by newspapers after the massacre found that his father had been violent, hitting his children and his wife; they accused Rachid Liass Gharbi of believing that women were not equal to men, that they were meant to serve. Despite his eventual rejection of his father, Lépine absorbed these ideas, said his mother after the murders.
| https://www.theguardian.com/g2/story/0,,1872900,00.html
One thing I didn't know was that Lepine had a sister. Quote: |
Nadia Gharbi, Marc's sister, died of a deliberate drug overdose seven years later

He can't go because he might get killed if he goes..
People generally die when they are killed.
This kid was influenced by his father very likely.. and when more information comes out, I wouldn't be surprised in the least to find that he was influenced by ISIS in some way.
My comment from before is telling you to better vet and prevent refugees who for some reason happen to be 95% men.. from coming in because you open up the possibility of more attacks occurring.
If you don't go hard on extremism it will go hard on you...

| The actions of a white piece of trash should not effect what people do. If fsy82 wants to go to a mosque he should.
Being afraid is not a reason to not do something. If fsy82 wants to got to masque he should.

The actual shooting suspect is 27-year-old Alexandre Bissonnette, a white French Canadian who is, by all appearances, a rabid anti-immigrant nationalist. A leader of a local immigration rights groups, François Deschamps, told a local paper he recognized his photo as an anti-immigrant far-right “troll” who has been hostile to the group online. And Bisonnette’s Facebook page – now taken down but still archived – lists among its “likes” the far right French nationalist Marine Le Pen, Islam critics Richard Dawkins and Christopher Hitchens, the Israeli Defense Forces, and Donald J. Trump |

Richard Dawkins is a critic of all religions.
Also, how exactly do you go hard on a group that blends into our society.
Well actually, the answer that comes to mind is an Orwellian society, locked down, where the government controls everything, and there is no privacy. Fear not, we're almost there!
