Terrorists leave a mark on defenseless, it-can’t-happen-here Canada

On Monday, Muslim convert Martin Rouleau ran down 2 members of the Canadian military, killing one and injuring another before he was shot and killed by police. Yesterday a second Muslim convert and terrorist Michael Zehaf-Bibeau killed a soldier outside of the Parliament building in Ottawa before sauntering inside to wound a number of MPs. Countless other members of the Canadian government had “…barricaded themselves behind doors reinforced with furniture.”

“It’s terrifying to think how high the body count may have been if not for the courage of Sergeant-at-Arms Kevin Vickers. The former Mountie is being widely praised as a hero after he shot and killed Zehaf-Bibeau just outside the parliamentary library before he managed to reach the MPs.” And how is it this lunatic Islamist was able to frolic into Ottawa’s Parliament building, killing a soldier and shooting others along the way? Well it seems no one in Canada may carry a firearm unless they are able to prove that protection afforded them by police will be insufficient. Though it may be difficult to believe, such a claim almost never results in permission being granted to carry a gun! Imagine that. (By the way, both soldiers carried rifles for which they were NOT allowed to have ammunition!)

So one 58 year old former Mountie and current Sergeant at Arms, Kevin Vickers–apparently the only Canadian armed at the time–found himself responsible for protecting all of the firearm wary MPs who had taken to diving behind furniture as the common-sense method of protecting their lives. Seems Canadian politicians have far less concern for their safety than those incomparably, self-important folks in Washington, DC. This nut would have been met with the fire of countless “assault weapons”– the real, full-auto kind–had he pulled this stunt in the District!

Both of these terrorists...

Brings to mind Marc Lepine, and how they always forgot to mention that he Quebecized (mother’s side) his Algerian name (father’s side).

if not for the courage of Sergeant-at-Arms Kevin Vickers.

Hmmm. A good guy with a gun stops a bad guy with a gun. Where have we heard that before- and seen it mocked by the liberals?

......Until it is the SAME liberals who will run for their lives and BEG the help of those same “good guys.”

Coach shouldn't be so smug. It wasn't too long ago that a nut jumped the White House fence and almost made it into the Oval office.

Heard the argument this morning that the reason for the terrorist attack was because Muslims are angry with Canada for supporting the action in Afghanistan.

What they failed to mention is that Islamic extremists will never be happy and will always find a reason to hate the West.

Are Liberals willing to give up women's rights to appease the Muslims? Force women to wear burkas? Or kill gays, or force all Christians to convert, etc. etc. etc.

Good post!

.....and PC on top of PC, the Whitehouse intruder apparently brushed right by a woman “officer” guarding the Whitehouse door!

Then, the WH and MSM tried to cover that up.

And, let’s not forget that this president appointed this woman to be “in charge” of the SS. More PC.

As things stand now, given the performance of our once respected Secret Service, PC could get this PC president killed! If I were A liberal, Marxist president like BO, I would give PC a rest and hire Marine Generals as the top 5 bosses in the SS if you could find five that would serve this fraud!

It is the Neville Chamberlain syndrome. And we know what happened to Great Britain during WWII.

By the way coach,

Twenty-one;

The ceremonial gun is always kept unloaded as a tribute to the unknowns.

Actually, Canada is no stranger to terrorism. I remember Canada briefly being under martial law after the kidnapping and murder of a member of the government.

Another fence jumper jumped last night and the dogs got him. Sadly, the dogs were injured.

An over-smug piece. I doubt that anyone in the US Congress carries when they are in session, even the most ardent Second Amendment supporters.
