ALLSEEINGEYE Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 Easy to figure out the cause. Easter weekend and Edmonton must also be the drunken indian capital of Canada. Maybe coincided with welfare Wednesday too? Perfect storm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gemguy Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 I have liberal acquaintances that have linked these murders to Donald Trump and global warming... Fore sure those 2 factors have something to do with the deaths...RIP But never forget to include the Chinese. They used to say: Blame it on the Rolling Stones.

jerojero Posted March 29, 2016 Share Posted March 29, 2016 Easy to figure out the cause. Easter weekend and Edmonton must also be the drunken indian capital of Canada. Maybe coincided with welfare Wednesday too? Perfect storm. Lived there many years and the city actually has a very small native Indian population. Regarding the horrific violence, who knows why really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
