webfact Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Ottawa shootings: Soldier killed and city on lockdown(BBC) A gunman shot and killed a soldier at a war memorial in Ottawa, before police engaged in a gun battle inside the parliament building.Police confirmed a gunman was shot dead, but Canada's capital remains on alert as they hunt for more suspects.At a press conference, police said the situation was "ongoing" and "fluid".It came hours after Canada raised its terror threat level, after another soldier was killed on Monday in a hit-and-run attack by a Muslim convert.The country earlier this month announced plans to join the US-led campaign of air strikes against Islamic State (IS) militants in Iraq.But there is no confirmation any of this week's attacks are linked to IS or the new military campaign.Citing unnamed Canadian officials, US and Canadian news agencies identified the dead gunman as Michael Zehaf-Bibeau.The latest incident began when soldiers guarding the memorial came under fire from a man carrying a rifle on Wednesday morning.Full story: http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-29724907-- BBC 2014-10-23 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Canada usually escapes the bad news that plagues its southern border. I hope they get the situation under control. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I trust that you are being sarcastic. Both incidents in the last three days, in which Canadian soldiers were killed, involved individuals who were on the Canadian terrorist watch list, and both had had their passports rescinded.

slipperylobster Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 (edited) Canada usually escapes the bad news that plagues its southern border. I hope they get the situation under control. Not quite. My grandparents were French Canadian....we live about 90 minutes away from the the border in upstate NY. Canada has had it's share of terrorists/separatists movements.... good to be accurate. not as pristine and virgin like as you consider Previously a safe haven for runaways/terrorists/draft evaders and the usual scum. Their naive generosity is now being repaid. Edited October 23, 2014 by slipperylobster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friendly Stranger Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 Yeah, it's wall to wall news here. A recent convert, yet another troublemaker. Even as a Canadian, I was unaware there's not much if any screening that goes on when visiting the parliament buildings. This will for sure change. Poor 24 yr old kid, Mr. Cirillo (deceased) he was so proud of that post as he joined as a cadet at 13. He leaves a young son.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ratcatcher Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 The Sergeant-at-Arms, Kevin Vickers, who shot the assailant, at the Parliament building will now be a marked man for the rest of his life.

simondan Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 These 'radical' idiots think that shooting a guy standing guard, probably quite still and unaware of whats coming, is righteous and will earn them martyrdom and 40 virgins in heaven. Well, the joke is on them! They are going straight to hell (not that I believe in such hocus pocus rubbish). The only martyrdom they have acheived is to their own cowardliness and gullability. Simple fools. May they burn slowly and well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By not letting them leave they are forcing to stay in Canada where they will carry out these acts and possibly indoctrinate others Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the inaliable rights of a citizen is to be able to enter their own country without restriction. It is a concept while tempting to tamper with in cases like this is simply too fundamental and important a right to stop. Stuff like this is the basic tool of a dictator. What you can do is make sure that when they land they go straight to jail. That for me is a good compromise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H1w4yR1da Posted October 23, 2014 Share Posted October 23, 2014 (edited) Yet another atrocity committed by a convert to the religion of peace. How long is the list? Richard Reid Germaine Lindsay Samantha Lewthwaite Michael Adebolajo Michael Adebowale Martin Couture-Rouleau And that's just off the top of my head. How many others? Anyone converting to Islam in the west should undergo intense security checks and monitoring. At their own expense. And just a matter of time before the forum's residents Islamists appear with their usual deflection, spin and apologist rhetoric. 10, 9, 8...
