La Loche is a community of 3400 people in North West Saskatchewan..Quote from: "Fashionista"

It's Native country up there. Lots of problems with alcohol and violence, but you never expect this.

If it was an internecine act, that would be extremely unusual in native populations and communities.Quote from: "Mr Crowley"
You are joking right? They had a teacher that quit last year because a student broke into his or her house and stabbed the teacher. It's a violent place. But you still don't expect this.

Oh, I know about their violence...but killing on that scale is not common. We have aborigines here too.Quote from: "Mr Crowley"
You are right. Mass killing is rare in remote aboriginal communities, but violence is common. So is alcohol and sexual abuse.

quite possibly, just another sign of a sagging economy.
When the economy sputters, the cracks begin to show.
The society is on edge.
People are stressed. They are not happy. They become depressed what they hear on the news and see on television. Times get tough.
People resort to extreme behavior more than they would during good times.
...it effects people everywhere.
And all the influences which contribute to the violence become exacerbated

Bad Times affect Kids too, Fashionista.
And it isn't just economic. It's social too.
We live in socially challenging, and extreme times as well.
People become harder and meaner.
And it affects the families too, not just the adults.
I've noticed the change from several years ago.
We live in a meaner more unforgiving society now.
Surely as a religious person, you may have noticed it.

This was just another kid with no future - so he decided to tell the world that (we) had better start paying attention, because there are many, many more kids out there just like him, and some of them are not nearly as nice. =(Quote from: "easter bunny"
I haven't read about that kid yet. But, that area is worse than Prince Albert. Still, this is usually an urban problem. It's not the type of violence you typically see in an aboriginal community.

well...I think it's more complicated than that. The adolescent may not be aware of the latest news stories are, but they feel the repercussions of it. ie - kid comes from a dysfunctional home. The Dad is a drunk who himself can't cope with his own economic situation, comes home, takes it out on his wife up and his kids. Beats them up, screams at, abuses them. Crying, screaming, yelling in the home. All in all, just a bad situation. So of course, the Kid doesn't do well in school, doesn't relate that well with life outside the home.
I had a rather upsetting experience yesterday with a wife beater and his girlfriend at the end resolved not to see one another again. The guy is a drunk who verbally and physically assaults his girlfriend on a regular basis. He hardly sees his son who's largely growing up without a father around. They father is economically stressed, and he takes it out on his girlfriend, blames her everything. On the rare occasion the son is around, he sometimes witnesses his father's violent episodes. Of course, the son doesn't know what's going on in the grown up world and the economy, as he's just a grade school kid. But nevertheless he internalizes the problems his Dad is experiencing. The Dad is not a very good role model but what little the son learns from him, he picks up and of course, it's not the right way to live. At the same time, it's his only glimpse of what an ideal family should be, so he'll likely carry on his father's flawed behavioural patterns when he grows up.

And as for the price of lettuce.. $3.75?!!!
Ha! Good luck with that Mr. lettuce tycoon! I'd sooner grow my own!acc_angry
Is that for romaine hearts, romaine bunches or iceberg lettuce heads?We grow romaine lettuce in our garden each year easter bunny..
It's tasty and hearty enough to withstand our quick changes in weather.:icon_wink:
No, but I would be happy to give you some.
ac_smile
Can you mail lettuce?:laugh:
I think it might be some unusual colour and slimy by the time it is delivered easter bunny..
I like fresh produce too, but if you don't have your own yard to grow vegetables, can you join a community garden?
We have a few of them in Calgary..
They are popular with apartment and condo dwellers.
I'm too lazy to grow my own, but if things keep going the way they have been I might just have to.ac_unsure Growing your own is not as cheap as it used to be..
It's still considerably cheaper though.
Has the price of sunlight gone up?

I was the first to mention that the community is aboriginal. But that does not matter. That punk that shot all the elementary school kids in Connecticut was white and not poor. Virginia Tech shooter was Korean and far from poor too. Aboriginal or not, several kids were wasted.

Four people died on Friday, including a teacher and two relatives of the alleged shooter, who were fatally shot in a La Loche home before the shooter entered the school at around 1 p.m. and began shooting. Multiple other victims in the school were injured, but details about the number of victims and the extent of their injuries were not available.
Meant to kill his relatives, and other people were killed out of anger maybe to get notoriety.

Look at Joe's posts. He has a high school aged kid killing people because the economy is sagging. WYH?
I've never said that a sagging economy is the only factor, although I've indicated that it could be one.
As I stated before, even if children are not fully cognizant of what's going in the world, their parents often are, and the abusive ones who see no escape from their own situation often take it out on their kids. It's not one thing, it's a compilation of them which leads to violent households which raise children who later commit violent acts. Violence is a symptom of something else.
Have you ever witnessed domestic violence or lived in a home with it? As I indicated earlier, someone I had a falling out with, frequently abuses his girlfriend. And anytime bad news arrived about his support payments to his ex, his negative bank account balance he'd get drunk and take it out on his girlfriend. I saw him hit her, punch her, spit on her on at least 3 separate occasions. He even threatened to kill here. Did she deserve it? No, of course not. But he'd do it anyway, and many of these domestic violent incidents would occur when his child was present. So, I don't take it back. From what I've seen, there may well be a causal link which goes in the economy and what goes in inside the home. Of course, there are other factors, such as drug and alcohol abuse.
And I'm not convinced as you may be, that this is strictly an 'Injun problem' as it affects every race and religion. BTW, the example I pointed out was a White guy beating up his girlfriend. He'd call here whore, a b****h and a c**t. It was awful. But I'll never forget it. It was so painful to watch. I'm actually quite relieved that we both have resolved never to see each other again. He even owed me $200, but I just decided it wasn't worth it. And the horrific events which I found quite traumatic just to watch have compelled me to stay away from the guy and forget whatever debt he owed me.

And anytime bad news arrived about his support payments to his ex, his negative bank account balance he'd get drunk and take it out on his girlfriend. I saw him hit her, punch her, spit on her on at least 3 separate occasions. Did she deserve it? No, of course not. But he'd do it anyway, and many of these domestic violent incidents would occur when his child was present. So, I don't take it back. From what I've seen, there may well be a causal link which goes in the economy and what goes in inside the home. Of course, there are other factors, such as drug and alcohol abuse.And I'm not convinced as you may be, that this is strictly an 'Injun problem'as it affects every race and religion. BTW, the example I pointed out was a White guy beating up his girlfriend. He'd call here whore, a b****h and a c**t. It was awful. But I'll never forget it. It was so painful to watch. I'm actually quite relieved that we both have resolved never to see each other again. He even owed me $200, but I just decided it wasn't worth it. And the horrific events which I found quite traumatic just to watch have compelled me to stay away from the guy and forget whatever debt he owed me. It
What Herman said was the total opposite of what you think he may be convinced of.

All of these events are tragedies. They are not a shame upon a country. They fit no stereotype.
Pre-investigation theories and use of blame of any type is attention whoring that insults the victims.
Whatever caused this is "individual". Perps who have done or would like to do this sort of thing run from poor to middle to very wealthy ... from well employed to broke .... from loners to outgoing types ... and have their very own unique motive.
This kind of perp and wannabee perp exist in every society of every country.

There is, actually.
Maybe not in Australia, but in Canada there is a very real need for guns. Perhaps not handguns, but those are quite restricted here anyhow, and aren't generally a huge problem, all things considered.
This is a land of hunters, and of vast wilderness. Long guns are very common, used by many for hunting, and simply for defense in the wilderness.
Very few problems occur here, all things considered, with legally owned firearms.

What should be done? Should we ban booze? That's been tried. Ban cars?
In a relatively free society, people must accept that there will be a slim chance that someone or something will kill you. The odds are very rare, but it can occur.
It is sad for the families involved, I am sure, but really? Life goes on. This is nothing new, and human nature will always find a way to inflict harm onto others, no matter what.

So in fact, a depressed economy may have indirectly influenced the behavior of the shooter.
Growing up poor, in a bad part of the country with lots of drugs and alcohol around.
The USA has its ghettos.
Sadly, Canada has its Native Reservations.
Too often, the finger is pointed at the USA.
But we have our social eyesores as well.
Native people in Canada get treated like Blacks and Latinos in the States.
Unfortunately, there is racism here as well, but it's just targets a different group.
So if you Americans want to pick on us for that, that's OK.

You speak as if Canada is unique. Its not.
Australia is nearly as big in land mass, with even fewer people. Hunting is now all but forbidden, and high powered rifles are banned. Like Canadians, Australians liked to shoot critters, but after a particularly heinous mass shooting, we decided that surrendering this pastime was a better choice than facilitating the ownership of lethal weapons.

The American meatbag gets her nose out of joint because she thinks using these slaughters as an rationale to eliminate gun ownership is improper.
That is like saying that using car accidents to justify speed limit imposition is unfair. But its what to expect from a rabid pigeon killer who believes that God has told America it must have guns. Discussing gun control with an American is like discussing the war on drugs with El Chapo.
Humanity has painted itself into a very uncomfortable corner that has increased pressure on its citizens, created conflict and confrontation within national borders, and created a society where crime brings rich rewards. Throwing lethal weapons in that mix is like throwing iron bars into a bar brawl.
We do not have the communal capacity to manage gun ownership in this modern mayhem.

No it's not. Many times the chief inspector likes to talk out of his ass when he is off on one of his hysterical tangents. Like many of his ilk, he has a penchant for stretching the truth and slanting his statements to suit his agenda. His shrill and hysterical wailing on this subject is quite comical when exposed to the truth.
"The University of Queensland estimates that Australia has around 300 000 active hunters investing a conservative $556,650,000 annually into the Australian economy.
"In Australia, despite there being perhaps 300,000 recreational hunters,
So how the inspector came up with his claim that hunting "is all but forbidden" looks to be a mystery.
All one has to do is Google "Australian Hunting" and you will come up with an assload of links to safari outfits that provide guided or what we would call "canned hunts". Many parts of Australia have problems with invasive species such as feral hogs, goats, water buffalo, foxes and rabbits.....all are hunted regularly. If it wasn't such an ass killing plane ride, I would consider doing a little hunting there. I quite enjoy running a few beagles and taking some rabbits for the stew pot.
Plus, regardless of what some self-righteous chaps with abortionized British accents will claim, the furry little native creatures such as kangaroos are hunted and killed with wild abandon by the local yokels every year. Also his claim that high powered rifles are forbidden is not exactly true either. Most roo hunters and poachers use common rifle calibers such as .223Rem, .243Win, .270Win and .308Win. Either the the chief inspector has no idea what he is talking about OR he has no idea what a high powered rifle actually is. I'm thinking it is a little bit of both.

I can only judge by what he says and what he says is something other than reality. Whether you admire him or not for his ideals, his information is obviously not correct. I didn't pull the information from Queensland UNIV. or the other links from my ass. They are official and valid citations in direct conflict with his claims.
If he is going to make statements he needs to be able to back them up with something other than his political bias and hysterical opinion. I understand that passions can run high when dealing with subjects like this but it's no excuse for blatantly making unsubstantiated remarks. Haven't we had enough of that with the "white people are racist" crap from that other guy?

I will try explain this again. If you do not hunt (and I'm talking in Canada ) the "game" animals OVER POPULATE, food becomes scarce and they die or the herd becomes deseased. Man has fucjed this up from the start and now it's to late to just say -YOU CAN'T HUNT!!!!!get rid of your high powered rifles.

Are you seriously telling me that the motive of hunters is to PROTECT the species?
Seriously?
Is that why Hitler gassed the Jews?
You're living in their yard. They seemed to do pretty well until man came along. This "kill them to preserve them" bs has been floated for years by gun freaks who get boners from slaughtering animals, and by their logic, animals that aren't hunted should be darn near extinct by now.
Its not too late to stop hunting, and implement better conservation programs that are not reliant on humans grabbing high powered rifles and heading into the wilderness to shoot the place up.
The overarching issue is that HUMAN BEINGS do not co-exist well with GUNS, not that animals need culling.
Would you send a three year old out with a weed whacker, arguing that if we don't trim the grass, the yard will be overrun? Its a barbaric practice using weapons we aren't very good at managing.

What don't you understand about hunting???
I will try explain this again. If you do not hunt (and I'm talking in Canada ) the "game" animals OVER POPULATE, food becomes scarce and they die or the herd becomes deseased. Man has fucjed this up from the start and now it's to late to just say -YOU CAN'T HUNT!!!!!get rid of your high powered rifles.
I have 2 degrees in wild life foresty conservation, I know what I'm talking about.
Are you seriously telling me that the motive of hunters is to PROTECT the species?
Seriously?
Is that why Hitler gassed the Jews?.
Godwin's Law?????ac_umm
I think we need a quick ruling on this.
Godwin all the way.
Forum foul.

It seemed to foretell of the ominous events which were to come 6 years later. I wonder why more people couldn't see it comin':
Jun 22, 2010 9:11 PM CT
A shooting death across the street from the RCMP detachment in La Loche, Sask., has thrown a harsh light on gang violence in the northern village.
Matthew St. Pierre, 29, died June 6 after being shot in broad daylight, a crime police say may have been gang-related. Shortly after the shooting, Curtis Ecklund, 26, and Richie Herman, 18, were charged with second-degree murder and weapons offences.
In interviews with CBC News last year, the RCMP said there could be 100 gang members around the village, which according to the 2006 census, had a population of 2,348.
One of the most influential of them is said to be a Dene gang known as the Scorpion Brothers, a Dene group that formed several years ago in the jails and prisons of Prince Albert.
St. Pierre himself had gang ties and had spent time behind bars for various offences.
His mother Annette Montgrand admits her son was no saint, but says he didn't deserve to be shot twice in the face with a sawed-off shotgun.
He had been out of jail for only four months, but was turning his life around and was training for a career, she said.
Montgrand said she rushed to the scene when she heard her son had been shot.
"My whole body went cold. I knew right away something was wrong," she said. "They said, 'Your son has been shot twice on Main Street.'"
She said she spoke to the police and others about what happened and learned the gun had been hidden in a baby's stroller.
"That baby was used to conceal the weapon that was intended for my son," she said.
In light of those circumstances, Montgrand said, she's disappointed police have not charged anyone with first-degree murder.
"They try to tell us there's no proof it was planned. So they been charged with second-degree murder. We fully do not agree. My children and I ... are not happy with that."
It's not the family's first brush with gun violence.
Last summer, a 13-year-old niece of St. Pierre was hit in a drive-by shooting.
She survived, but according to the girl's father, Robert St. Pierre, a culture of fear makes it difficult to bring the culprits to justice.
"It was very, very busy. A lot of witnesses. No one came forward," Robert St. Pierre said.
No one came forward, he said, because people in La Loche are afraid of gang retaliation. That's something that has to change, he said.
Meanwhile, the two men charged in the death of Matthew St. Pierre are scheduled to be back in court on Thursday.

"Although falling afoul of Godwin's law tends to cause the individual making the comparison to lose his argument or credibility, Godwin's law itself can be abused as a distraction, diversion or even as censorship, fallaciously miscasting an opponent's argument as hyperbole when the comparisons made by the argument are actually appropriate.[9] Similar criticisms of the "law" (or "at least the distorted version which purports to prohibit all comparisons to German crimes") have been made by Glenn Greenwald.[10]"
My dick is just fine, blimp. And no, you're STILL not getting a pic.

Hey shithead, do you know how to cite your posts properly or are YOU going to take credit for what you are trying to use as an argument? If so, you need to remove the citation references.
Without proper citation the veracity of your post holds very little credibility. You are one lame mother fucker, do you know that?
In any event there was no abuse of Godwin's Law here. Your penchant for hysterics and reaching over the top during debates is well known and you did not disappoint in this case.
BTW, in order for your dick to be "fine", you first need to have one.
