Sounds like a ambush if he manged to kill 3 cops and injure 2 without a single cop taking a single shot at the shooter.

calgary stabbing spree and berkely shooter were both half asian. Georgia tech guy was fully asian. Where do they fit in? and when is the last time a black person has gone on a mass shooting spree?

unrelated but what would happen if you saw the moncton guy on your street and just shot him from your window? would you get charged? get a medal?

are these people stupid or something? There's gunshots being fired and you want to stick your head by the window to watch?

He has one shotgun with an AR15 style stock, and what looks like some sort of battle rifle (M14 ish). He also has a bow/crossbow (reference quiver on back) and a knife. I don't think he'd be the type to simply surrender, he'll probably end up dead.

And be on the hook for murder? You'd be lucky if you weren't shot by the police after pulling a stunt like that. It's easy to imagine being the hero that lives to fight another day, but what's right and what is legal are two seperate things, regardless of whether you stop him from killing more people or not.

The only way that would be legal is if he entered your residence and threatened you with one of his firearms, you are then allowed to use an equal amount of force to stop him, but you will still be investigated after the fact. You will probably have your firearms license taken away along with your firearms, you fail your PAL if you show that you intend to use firearms for self defense.

I wish it weren't so, but it is.

[rsx]

Officers receiving fire from two separate locations, they'll start shooting back. Unless, you're on with the dispatch and they patch you through to the cops on the ground and they tell you to "take the shot" it's extremely dangerous to just take pot shots at an armed gunman without letting the authorities know who you are.

Unless your rifle is stored incorrectly by the time you put the pieces together the gunman would be long gone

People say this but I'm not that certain.

You have a(n unrestricted) rifle that is in a case (optional) and has a trigger lock. If it's a combination lock, both these steps takes less than 15 seconds to uncase and take the lock off. Then you have your ammunition that is stored separately and that takes another 15 seconds to retrieve provided it isn't locked up.

All you need to do is load and you're ready to go. Albeit you may not be in the room and so you would need to get there and get ready but realistically, I doubt that it would take that much time for you to get ready should you actually want to. It easily takes less than 5 mins from start to finish.

+1

You can have a restricted firearm(semi-auto pistol, AR-15, etc.) inside a safe without a trigger lock on it. You can also have loaded magazines in the same safe but they cannot be in the gun.

Therefore all you do is punch in the combo(digital keypad) on the safe, grab gun and magazines and you're ready to go.

With all that said it would be pretty dumb for you to try and take out a "perpetrator". The legal ramifications alone would be overwhelming for many.

So.. this guy is on the loose still..

[rsx]

Damn, thought they'd find this lunatic by now.

[PeanutButter]

This is such terrible news. I got chills watching the video.

The police were clearly outgunned. 9mm's vs AR's at distance.

Does anyone have info on how the officers were shot? Were they ambushed or were they trying to negotiate with the gunman?

In regards to helping out the cops with your personal rifle, I wonder what the situation would be if you phoned 911 telling them you had a clear shot at the gunman. I wonder if they would patch you through to the commanding officer on the ground and if they would let you take the shot.

My heart is just broken for the families of the fallen officers.

[murd0c]

in a situation like that the police would not be allowed to say take the shot.. You take it anyways and you know you wouldn't get charged and would be considered a hero.

The main issue is being able to handle killing another human, most people wouldn't be able to handle that which is it really worth it in the long run?

Yeah, I guess you're right. They can't just let civilians start opening fire as they don't know what time of training or skill they have. The cops themselves could put themselves in danger.

I never thought about the aftermath of killing someone, good point. =

No AR, he might have been lucky with the first three officers, but now he's up against an arsenal he can't possibly hope to fight.

And so right now he should be in hiding mode, probably in some friend's house. After this dies down in a few weeks he will just leave the town. I don't think RCMP is doing house searches yet.

I would be OK dealing with the consequences. Given the circumstances, I doubt anything would happen. There would likely be charges and a trial but no conviction. I have too many RCMP friends and ex police officer friends to just stand there and watch something like that happen.

[DragonChi]

RS fund to send falcon to moncton to hunt this guy down.

"That’s when an unmarked police car rolled up and a plainclothes police officer stepped out. He was wearing a flak vest. Ms. Bernatchez said he kept turning around because he didn’t know the direction of the shooter. That’s when family members noticed a shadow growing larger between two houses next door.

“We knew it was the shooter right away,” she said. “We banged on the windows to let the officer know. We yelled ‘turn around.’ Then there was a shot. The officer went down. He got shot in the neck.”

Despite his mortal wound, the officer managed to squeeze off two shots from his handgun as he fell to the ground, according to Ms. Bernatchez.

“He was still trying to get that shooter, but as soon as he hit the ground, he stopped moving.”"

from Police surround building in hunt for Moncton shooter: reports - The Globe and Mail

Neighbors didn't even know who it was at first. In real life, these kinds of things are a shit show. It's not like CS where enemies are clearly identified. If you shoot. what's stopping the police from thinking your the gunman and getting yourself shot.

[falcon]

Unless your rifle is stored incorrectly by the time you put the pieces together the gunman would be long gone

I can take my bolt out of the safe, put it in my gun and load the magazine in less than 30 seconds.

Also, I would only consider this if all the cops were shot and lying there bleeding out. If they were there still active, taking shots or trying to talk the gunman down I wouldn't be stupid enough to do that. I'm strictly talking if they were shot, bleeding out... and no other cops in the vicinity and the gunman was advancing to say "finish the job" or whatever.

A $0.25 bullet would have saved tax payers a whole lot of money (lawyers, court fees, keeping him in prision).

In clear cut cases like this, I support the death penalty.

[SpeedStars]

^ it's actually more than just .25cents for the death penalty. The paperwork and etc amounts to quite a large amount. I'll find out which source I found tomorrow (looked up the death penalty vs life in prison), way too tired today.

Edit: nvm I found something http://www.deathpenaltyinfo.org/costs-death-penalty. The stats are for the states since Canada has abolished capital punishment for quite some time to be relevant

[CharlesInCharge]

The system makes money off cheap prisoner labour... unless the prisoner decides to stay locked in his/her cell all day which I doubt humans will, because that will make one crazy if not crazier.

To crunch some numbers, a welfare recipient gets what $250 a month for food? Thats $3000 a year.
A percentage of that figure gets divided up by stores who need to make profits selling their products and a further cut the government takes in on every item for tax.

So somewhere around $2000 or much less for the whole sale food the prison system buys and feeds the inmates.

Does feeding, heat and a handful of guards cost that much per person? No.

If I can own a slave for $5000 a year, I can probably overturn his labour to make me $40-60 thousand.

[Traum]

^^ Only $5k a year per inmate? Are you out of your mind? If you are gonna bs, at least do some homework first, you know?

This article from Nov 2013:

Canada?s prison population at all-time high - CBC News - Latest Canada, World, Entertainment and Business News (http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada-s-prison-population-at-all-time-high-1.2440039)

pegs a male prisoner to cost an average of $110k/year, while a female inmate costs a little less than $55k.

@Traum

CiC, don't play dumb with me now. Certainly you can fathom a reasonable guess as to why it costs that much to house an inmate?

It doesn't specifically say in the article how the $110k / $55k figures are calculated, but it does hint at a lot of reasons for those costs.

From the stuff that I've read in the past, typically these calculations are arrived at by tallying the total operating costs of the correctional facilities, and dividing it out by the number of inmates. This means the building costs, maintenance and prison operating costs, the costs of correctional officers, medical staff, general staff costs to keep the whole place and the whole system running, training / re-integration programs for the inmates, etc. etc.

Prisons / correctional facilities are anything but cheap.

A $0.25 bullet would have saved tax payers a whole lot of money (lawyers, court fees, keeping him in prision).

In clear cut cases like this, I support the death penalty.

I'd even go one step further and have an open shoot. People pay to shoot at this guy. At least the government can make a few a bucks out of this cunt.

Justin Bourque pleads guilty.

MONCTON, NB (NEWS1130) – (http://www.news1130.com/2014/08/08/justin-bourque-pleads-guilty-to-murder-attempted-murder-charges-in-moncton-shootings/) A New Brunswick man has pleaded guilty to three first-degree murder charges in the fatal shootings of three RCMP officers in Moncton.

Justin Bourque also pleaded guilty to two counts of attempted murder in the Court of Queen’s Bench today.

The 24-year-old calmly told the judge “I plead guilty” or replied “guilty” when asked for his plea on each charge.

His case returns to court Oct. 27 to file victim impact statements and pre-sentencing documents.

Bourque was recently found competent and mentally fit to stand trial after undergoing a psychiatric assessment. Members of his family declined comment as they left court.

Supt. Marlene Snowman, the RCMP’s top officer in the detachment responsible for Moncton, also refused comment after the pleas were entered.

Constables Dave Ross, Fabrice Gevaudan and Douglas Larche were killed after responding to a report of a man with firearms in a residential neighbourhood in the northwest area of Moncton on June 4.

Constables Eric Dubois and Darlene Goguen were wounded and later released from hospital.

Bourque was arrested following a manhunt that spanned 30 hours and brought the city of 69,000 to a virtual standstill.

I wonder how much of a difference his sentencing will be by pleading guilty. The only major benefit I see with the guilty plead is that our court system will end up spending less time (and therefore spending less money) than if he had tried to fight something off.

Unreal. Not very often do they catch the guy before they kills themselves, cops not kill them, and then the guy be mentally competent and fit to stand trial, and then plead guilty!
