Canada bombing people in the Middle East (Iraq, Libya, Syria etc.), no one cares...a crazy canadian commits a murder and everyone is raging. Canada and rest of NATO has no business in foreign countries.

 

You do realize that Iraq, Libya, and Syria have all formally asked for US and NATO help, right?

Just another uninformed person trying to say something to other people and they themselves don't know because CCCXLII is correct they have asked for help so read up before commenting please!

Well it's a double edged sword, to make mis-informed comments one way or another is a poor idea.  This whackjob from what I've heard of em was upset he couldnt go join in the conflict over in the middle east (they wouldnt give him a passport).  Logical response? shoot up everything like that'll fix it.. Not quite... Another whackjob that is amongst the many roaming around in any "free" society. Calling the acts of a looney terrorism is irresponsible imo, just as much as saying that this happens because the powers of the west poke into the mideast affairs (regardless of the red carpet rolled out for our assistance or not).  In both instances it's a fallacy that flat out isnt true.

 

The word terrorism imo is far too often overused to shadow the inconvenient fact of life.. There ARE whackjobs out there who independent and on their own course opt to do very stupid selfish things, and in the end preventing them from doing so isnt something the world really is prepped to handle.  They've done these type of stunts before, and will continue to do so regardless of what "changes" are made.  Under a free society you can't go round snatching ppl off the street because you think they may be a problem.  Domestic whackjobs have been and always will be a potent issue for the civilized masses, sorry to say but there isnt really a quick way to cure them.

 

Just because this one in his disillusionment felt that he should go join the conflict over there doesnt class it as an act of terror in my book.  Pure domestic nutjob will be my bid for this incident just as much as the kid that went nuts in his school in wash state.  Both these people deserve not an ounce of our time, nor will anything fruitful come out of trying to guess what went through their feeble minds in doing their actions.  People are messed up out there, some of them are willing to die to hurt others.  Fact of life =/
