some person used a van today to mow down people in Toronto,
Canada, no report on how many he killed but said to be many
Re: some person used a van today to mow down people in Toron
I ass-u-me'd this wasn't the truck of peace at first, but it's looking like this is a terrorist event by all indications.

I was in town today and listening on the radio just after it happened...the descriptions were awful.
Last I heard 5 dead and several injured.
The report also said:

The report also said:
Now in Canada that might mean the driver is from Manitoba.Toronto police are now reporting multiple fatalities following the incident which has seen a man, described as being “Middle-Eastern” in appearance, arrested a short distance away.

Those cops are idiots. That guy would have been blown away if he pulled something like that in the states. Cop is just standing in the open too. He has no idea what he's doing. Thankfully the gun was fake (I assume).Major Kong wrote:

As they should. Pointing a gun at police should get you killed.Major Kong wrote:I was telling my wife that here in most of the US as soon as that gun came up the police would have off'ed the guy.USN_Hokie wrote:Those cops are idiots.

Donald Trump is a stupid man's idea of a smart man, a poor man's idea of a rich man, and a weak man's idea of a strong man.

Re: some person used a van today to mow down people in Toron
the cop in toronto is extremely lucky the guy was trying to do suicide by cop as if it was a criminal that did not want to get caught the cop would be shot.....somebody points a gun directly at you, you don't wait to find out where the bullet hits you, you defend yourself. But the driver that just murdered at least 10 people wanted to die, he did not want to get away, not a normal murdererHooFighter wrote:It does in certain cases.CFB Apologist wrote:As they should.
