If they are Moslem, we may never be told
We were never told the identity of the man
who set himself ablaze in Tim Horton's in Toronto.
This is Canada, after all.

Update:
Michel Boyer, 19, ... saw a masked gunman wearing black from head to toe and wearing a mask was seen with a black rifle or shotgun. He said he heard 20 shots and ran for shelter in a classroom.
"I think I'm very lucky to be alive and that is wasn't injured," Boyer said.
"It was like something from a movie, it is the most scary thing that has ever happened to me."
Another report said a gunman with a Mohawk haircut and dressed in black opened fire in the building.
The situation may be under control
according to police.
One gunman has been neutralized.
There may only have been one.
gunmen wearing black army fatigues...and one shot and killed himself...sounds like the MO/profile of muslim terrorists to me.

I have no idea how credible this is.
Must be those dang Calvinists again.
I thought our "liberal" neighbor to the north had banned and confiscated guns. So this is clearly impossible.
Or is is possible that the NRA is right? When guns are outlawed, only outlaws will have guns.
Is the NRA member card in your wallet?
10,000 students and he could only "wound" 20? Clearly he was NOT a US Marine.
Didn't they just screen that movie about the Bush "assassination" up in Canada? I wonder if the shooter was at the show...perhaps that inspired him. (The x42s tried to blame Rush for the OKC bombing...)
Calling Michael Moore.
So it was Injuns, not Muslims. Time to bring back the cavalry of the days of yore.
Did the police announce that 'this isn't terrorist related' yet?
Call for national gun registry
Even before the exact circumstances of the Dawson College shootings were clear, some politicians said the incident showed that a national gun registry is needed.
"We need the registry," Bloc Québécois Leader Gilles Duceppe told Radio-Canada. "The costs were outrageous, but we need the registry.
"It's tragic. We can never explain why these things happen," Duceppe said. "At the [l'École] Polytechnique, women were targeted. But here, we have no idea."
Duceppe was referring to the shootings at Montreal's l'École Polytechnique de Montréal on Dec. 6, 1989, when 25-year-old Marc Lepine gunned down 14 women before fatally shooting himself. Lepine shouted "I hate feminists" as he opened fire on the female engineering students.
'We must unite'
A statement from interim Liberal leader Bill Graham and Lucienne Robillard, Westmount-Ville Marie MP, decried the "senseless" Dawson College shootings and said Canadians must join together in its aftermath.
"We must unite as a country to show our compassion for those whose lives have been dramatically altered by this inexplicable event," they said.
NDP Leader Jack Layton said the incident was a grim reminder of shootings at Columbine and École Polytechnique, and that it hit particularly close to home for him.
"I know Dawson College well, as someone who grew up in Montreal, and I can imagine the students and staff are in shock there," he said.
Layton said he awaited police confirmation on the type of gun or guns that may have been used, adding that a crackdown on the importing of illegal guns was needed.
Another gun-control success story--success story for the liberals that is. This will provide the excuse to start a whole new round of anti-gun legislation and crackdowns. The harder the govt. cracks down, the more often stuff like this happens. It's a vicious cycle that can only be stopped by allowing concealed carry, not banning it.
Why, for God's sake, don't they just BAN black trench coats, and be done with it?
