About three hours ago, at around 9:45, more than one person entered Dawson College in Montreal and started shooting people.  The CBC says at least 4 people were killed and 16 injured.  One of the gunmen is dead.  God, what a shocking world we live in.

What a terrible set of events!

I can never figure out why these things happen. What goes through the mind of these folks when they decide to wreak their revenge on society. Makes you wonder about humans it does.

I hate to cheapen this, but I smell a Michael Moore documentary.

It’s not hard to understand at all. There are over 6.5 billion people in the world. All people are flawed, thus, the chances of a considerable number of us being extremely defective (guys who go on shooting sprees, soldiers slaughtering innocents, pedophiles, rapists, etc.) is quite high.

I think we should make all guns illegal except for law enforcement, I also think the government should ban violent video games to prevent this in the future.
