Ottawa

The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

Yeahno, original false reports of a secondary gunman are common in these lone gunmen attacks.

I think it's been established now that it was just some lone nut.

It was an attack against the government, so technically it's a "terrorist attack" right?

(whether or not it was a "muslim extremist terrorist attack" is unknown at this point)

He walked up and shot an army reservist to death and wounded another.

The response was EXTREMELY swift, raising questions as to whether this guy was on a watch list.

Obviously he intended to kill more people, but he was taken out before he could manage that.

Yeah so now he's just some DEAD nut.

Seems like a poorly thought out plan.

EDIT: reports now circulating that the dead nut was Michael Zehaf-Bibeau, a muslim extremist.

One less nut and he'd only be half as talented as Tavares.

But back to the drama... I don't usually watch the news anymore; what's with this hit and run people are talking aboot and how is it connected to todays shooting?

Well the connection would be 2 separate nuts targeting Canadian military personnel in 2 days.

(vehicular homicide the other day in Quebec and the shootings today in Ottawa)

Well 2 separate muslim extremist nuts. :look:

Well 2 DEAD muslim extremist nuts.

Muslim extremist groups have no doubt been encouraging lone nuts to attack Canadian military personnel

... in response to Canada's decision to join the fight against ISIS in Iraq.

Nutty.

It's too bad they took their passports away. Shoulda let them head to Syria so they could meet their pedophile prophet and circle jerk with all the other sheep rapists.

It was the second deadly assault on a uniformed member of Canada’s armed forces in three days.

Zehaf-Bibeau had been a convert to Islam, and he had changed his birth name, which was originally Michael Joseph Hall.

Two days earlier, a radical jihadist ran over two soldiers at a suburban Montreal strip mall, killing one of them.
Less Canucks embarrassment please.

The guy who shot the terrorist is Sergeant-at-Arms Kevin Vickers.

I didn't realize the fallen soldier was a reservist guarding the National War Memorial. That's seriously messed up. Those guys aren't even given real guns to defend themselves.

RIP
