Really? No thread on the ISIS sympathizer killing a Canadian soldier yesterday?

    Some dummy tried to cross the police line this morning as the Prime Minister was laying a wreath at the war memorial.

    He was greeted by several dozen guns in his face.

    It sounds like the security guys are a bit on edge and rightly so.

    The epitome of badass:

    [​IMG]

    Canada's Sergeant-at-Arms, Kevin Vickers, moments after he "put down" (his words) the terrorist that attacked Parliament Hill. This man was a decorated police officer for 29 years and in all that time he never fired his weapon in the line of duty. But when duty called yesterday, he rose to the occasion. His family is saying that he would have really struggled with taking someone else's life.

    I hope people in Canada realize that Islam fanatics such as ISIS don't see Canada any different then they see the United States. Canadians like to say, "we aren't Americans!" but the fuck nuts like ISIS don't care.

    Also people who are willing converts to a religion are usually fanatics regardless of the religion.

    The bad guy was "put down" like the fucking rabid dog he was. I can't see a down-side at all to this.

    ^Well, excuse me. Going by an earlier report. You're right. Gunz are the answer to everything except Ebola, which is why the TightyRighties are so scared.

    Have you started a Go Fund Me page for Patricia Wanderlich or will you be paying her $6,000 deductible out of your trust fund?

    Today I heard that the Canadians can't figure out how a felon got his hands on a common hunting rifle.
    Felons aren't allowed to have guns. Newsflash Canada: criminals don't give a shit about laws.
    BTW he probably stole it from some law-abiding person't house while they were out working. Or bought it on the black market from other criminals. It's not rocket science.

    Is Canada like Mexico in that most of the illegal unregistered guns all come from the US?

    It's easy smuggling anything in and out of Canada that's for sure.

    67.0 China
    53.0 India
    24.5 Germany

    14th Doctor started this thread and Demuirge said it was the perfect WF thread.

    I wrote back saying it is not the perfect wordforge thread b/c it didn't say anything at all about Thunderthighs, Otters, Pthalo Bluemoon, Lipstick Lesbians, Conveyor Belts, Birth Certificates, Cleopatra, Skittles or gettin drunk (and posting)....

    I was going to come up with a clever response here, but you're honestly not worth the effort today. Is there any chance FuckwitForge can keep this from turning into yet another tiresome gun thread? :shrug:

    At this point, from what I've read, they both appear to have been mentally ill. I used to work with a schizophrenic guy a few years ago, he'd converted to Islam and was very passionate about it. All the other Muslims I worked with were scared of him to some degree. Maybe if he'd never heard of Islam, he'd have found some other reason to attack "the establishment." (Both of them intentionally targeted members of the military/government and not the general public.) :clyde:
