Can you imagine a worse, less dignified way to die?

He could have been a guido...

You have some serious growing up to do there, chap.

It really bothers me that absolutely nobody tried to take this guy out the second he started swinging the knife around.

Every bus is equipped with one.

The thought that no one did a god damn thing except get off the bus and lock the fucking door, is appalling to me.

Nice to know that in times of need, no one will do anything to help.

Fucking depressing.

Or it could've been your friend, or a member of this forum.

God, fuck PETA.

Christ on a cross, this young man has a family that are grieving right now...

I think they need some apostrophe's around the word 'People', like that, from now on.

Oh good! Look who else showed up to take advantage of the tragedy and suffering?

No shit. There were 34 cowards on that bus.

and this is 2nd degree murder. Does 2nd degree murder mean the same thing in Canada as it does in the US? Or is it more of an insanity thing?

Ha! In Wisconsin, you can shoot someone 5 times and they'll charge ya with 1st degree Recklessly Endangering Safety. "No, I wasn't trying to kill dude, I just shot him 5 times..."

He'll probably try to float on an insanity plea, he may get away with it. Hopefully he can't afford a good lawyer.

I was thinking the same thing when I read that last account. The guy was kneeling on top of that kid in the center aisle of the bus. You'd think somebody would have grabbed him by the wrist or something and tried to take the knife off him.

Then again, I wasn't there so I don't know exactly how it happened.

But yeah PETA is a piece of shit organization for exploiting this. Remember back in 2001, when the PETA director made a statement that 9/11 was a good thing, because afterwards there were 3000 fewer people left in the world to eat animals?
