Taber shooter - what an idiot

[healer677]

OK - so they had this goofs picture and name on the front page of the paper yesterday.

But today, after his capture they can't reveal his name and show his picture? Why not?

This is the same genius who declared "he wouldn't be taken alive ...blah...blah" Turns out the guy was a criminal mastermind - got caught in the middle of downtown Toronto.

Why did this meat head even get paroled? We ought to scrap the Young Offender Act - it's a joke. Specially for murdering idiots like this guy. I say they ought to slap a Dangerous Offender sign around this guys neck and let hime rot in prison for say, the term of his natural deranged life.

I don't know....

I kind of feel sorry for this kid...

I remember seeing a picture of him when he first got arrested. He looked really small and harmless (the glasses helped).
He was a victim of bullying and he did what he felt he had to do and I'm not stating what he did was right but I do feel sympathy for him.

I think the police blew the whole situation out of porportion. It seemed the kid was blowing of steam and was just harmless.

I agree with Manji.

IMO this kid is not your typical gansta type person like the ones currently shooting up the streets of the GTA. He is a kid with a lot of problems. He was a bullying victim and needs help. I think this whole running away thing was just a cry for futher help.
