After how many years of being a law abiding citizen should rights still be denied? he beat his grandmother to death with a hammer. he should have never been let out of jail, let alone be given the right to own weapons You don't think people can be rehabilitated? Well, they can I think, but to release them after doing something like that it should have to be proven beyond reasonable, or any, doubt that they will never do something like that again. I mean where I live, West Coast of Canada, there's stuff in the newspaper all the time about how they just released guy from jail who was incarcerated for rape or molestation, and you better watch out cause he's still dangerous. If he's still dangerous he should still be in prison. you know its pretty much impossible to prove what will happen in the future, right? Yeah, I know and that leads to some moral delemas, which I don't claim to have the answer. But what do you do? Should someone be locked up for life for one act? Kinda makes sense since it guarantees they won't hurt anyone ever again? But then you might as well just kill them right? I don't know the answer and the truth is that we will probably never come to a solution to this problem. It's just one of those things.

The price of "freedom". Enjoy. (I'm not saying you should/ shouldn't ban guns, I'm saying you're fucked and sick shit like this will never stop.)

Absolutely tragic incident.

Condolences So sad that these everyday heroes aren't appreciated by everyone.

We got more or less the same thing happening in France. It's not gunshots, but when firemen / ambulances are called in some of the more "sketchy" places we have, some people set them up, and throw heavy stuff from the roof of skyscrapers. So for exemple you're a fireman, and you're arriving on the scene of an incident, and you get dishwashers / huge rocks falling from the roof of skyscrapers on you and your equipment/vehicle.
I do not understand what goes through the mind of someone thinking doing such thing is a good idea, and to be honest these people infuriate me to no end. I mean who doesn't appreciate firemen / ambulances? These people save lives everyday.
