Possibly intentional… “Nine people are dead and 16 are injured after a white rental van mowed down pedestrians in Toronto on Monday. Witnesses say the van mounted the curb on Yonge St. near Finch Ave, Toronto, at just before 1.30pm on Monday afternoon. The acting Toronto police chief confirmed that nine had been killed and that the suspect was in custody after the tragedy. He would not confirm if the incident was a deliberate attack, but witnesses say the driver seemed to be targeting pedestrians. 'This person was intentionally doing this, he was killing everybody,' a witness at the scene, who only gave his name as Ali, said. 'He kept going, he kept going. People were getting hit, one after another.' …” www.dailymail.co.uk/news/artic...nto-flees-scene.html Serious about crackers | ||

Now it's ten dead, and the murderer is in custody. The Islamofascist terrorist in Nice showed how easy it is to murder a bunch of people with a vehicle. Nice is overrated "It's every freedom-loving individual's duty to lie to the government." Airsoftguy, June 29, 2018 | |||

Wait, what? |
Wonderful. This cowardly shit wants to die, but doesn’t have the stones to end himself and goes on a killing spree, then chokes on his suicide by cop attempt at the last second? And now, he gets to live? Hey Alec- the suicide by cop? You’re fucking doing it wrong.  “Remember to get vaccinated or a vaccinated person might get sick from a virus they got vaccinated against because you’re not vaccinated.” - author unknown | |||

If sparing someone who just murdered 10 people is what "being Canadian" about, I have a feeling you're going to have plenty of chances to "be Canadian" once all the Islamic radicals you let into your country start actively destroying it. Disgusting drivel The weak get eaten. | |||

The news this morning gave kudos to the officer for having "restraint". The killer was pointing an object at the officer and all he did was stand in the open and yell "Get down!" Could have turned out very different. GGF | |||

Me, I'd have blown a foot-deep hole in the sidewalk he had his head resting on, straight through his face, and then done a fast reload and done it again. But then I'm not a cop, with all the restraints they have to deal with. tac | |||

“They are taught to use as little force as possible in any given situation” The same concept is being pushed in this country (well, California anyway) with proposed legislation that ups the use of force requirement for police from “reasonable” to “necessary.” I swear, getting old enough to see the end of the line coming isn’t all bad. ► 6.4/93.6 “Most men … can seldom accept the simplest and most obvious truth if it … would oblige them to admit the falsity of conclusions … which they have woven, thread by thread, into the fabrics of their lives.” — Leo Tolstoy | |||

Unfortunately this may have already happened. If a police officer hesitates and no one is there to witness it we may never know if that was the case.

Agree... The whole "restraint" demonstration is reckless and not only endangers police, but everyone else nearby. Note the bystanders near the killer during the confrontation. I will guess the cop could see it was not a gun being held by the killer. Hooraw for Canuck PD. End of Earth: 2 Miles Upper Peninsula: 4 Miles | |||

We know, of course, what you’re implying. The reported name of the murderer is Armenian, and Muslims are a very small minority in that country according to several sources. According to the current online articles, no one is reporting that he might have had a religion-driven motive. In any event it will be interesting to learn the motive of this incident. As I’ve been pointing out in discussions about people who murder, vehicle ramming attacks are becoming more and more common as the BS news reporting businesses keep making money from making sure everyone knows how effective they are. People use guns for mass murder when they’re available; when they’re not so available, they use other things. ► 6.4/93.6 “Most men … can seldom accept the simplest and most obvious truth if it … would oblige them to admit the falsity of conclusions … which they have woven, thread by thread, into the fabrics of their lives.” — Leo Tolstoy | |||
