    1. @D K I know it’s so awesome! Don’t you wish it was you? It’s not you though it’s me. I was first, I’m number 1.

    2. @Josh Jensen Here’s your participation ribbon.🥈…… Now go run along and play with the rest of the children.

    3. @D K You’re so jealous of me it’s just pathetic. I was first and you were not now just relax a little jeez.

    4. @Leave A Message User Is Offline Everyone’s proud and also jealous of me but mostly I’m extremely proud of myself.

  1. My last home in Sherwood Park AB..My neighbor a member of the Edmonton City Police , I would class him as a psychopath yet he can have guns and wear one on his hip..So who is really knows who a psychopath is ??
    Remember a female RCMP could not hold her firearms as this shooter had her handgun and assault firearm came from the RCMP cruiser..
    The real story is anyone can get access to guns from any Police cruiser..

  2. It was on the news a week or two ago his girlfriend did report him but no investigation was opened. That was the one and only time I heard it. Cover up???

  3. It has been reported that a prior neighbour reported to police that the shooter had illegal weapons. They were told the Police could do nothing without pictures. The police have many failures here.

    1. Humans have rights. You cannot search a residence without evidence. That will never change unless you want to give up freedom and liberties.

    2. @Do NotComply Wrong, learn law and be thankful it’s the way it is. We do not give up freedom for protection.

  4. I just don’t understand why he was allowed to have vehicles that were so much like police vehicles.
    Also why was he allowed to have police uniforms.
    It’s been said that LE knew he had a vehicle.
    I think LE knew more than they are saying.
    No he did not ‘snap.’ He planned this.
    Why can’t these experts talk about domestic violence?
    He had a history of that.

  5. A clear warning sign is that the shooter first hand cuffed or restrained his girl friends so that they could not fight back and then beat them up.

  6. Lot of psychopaths have a fascination with law enforcement, some actually make it in the ranks like Golden State Killer

    1. all those hate speech crimes, ya know, it’s not like they’re not busy… or something… something…

    2. Its hard to get the police to act on assumptions and rumors. In most cases, their intelligence is such that they can avoid detection until they finally act

      I saw the interview with the lady that used to be his neighbor. I believe she talked to the police about him but they probably didn’t fill out a report if their excuse for not doing anything was that they needed pictures. What an unbelievable situation!

  7. Who will hold Trudeau accountable for exploiting this for political gains through unconstititional gun ban?

  8. It was premeditated. The problem is no matter how many acquaintances “snitch”, which our culture discourages, we don’t have any mechanism which ensures mental health interventions without consent. It’s not working.

  9. One psychopath, so JT takes it out on every law abiding gun owner in the entire country.
    Whats wrong with this picture ?

      You should educate yourself on the 2nd amendment before making a ridiculous statement like that. You’re just showing how clueless you are.

  10. I applaud Chris for outing or PM on this new gun law making no sense. No sense for citizens, anyway.
