Culture of Death strikes Canada

Looks like the goth/emo/death crowd may have a new poster boy: Kimveer Gill (AKA: fatality666). Here's a screengrab from his vampirefreaks profile:



Synopsis via Wikipedia: On September 13. 2006 Gill arrived at Dawson College in Montreal and opened fire on students within the main building, killing Anastasia De Sousa, 18, and wounding nineteen other people before officer Denis Cote and other policemen "incapacitated" him. He then turned the gun on himself and committed suicide, according to witnesses, authorities and the autopsy report.

No surprise that the blame is falling on the gun culture rather than the individual. This article fingers the gun club where Gill negotiated the legal hoops of gun ownership in Canada.

Fear not, timid people of California! CA DOJ has seen to it that the Beretta carbine used in NOT for sale here. Ironically, only 10 round magazines are allowed for sale in Canada, as in California. Those arbitrary limits on magazine capacity really had an effect here. I know I'll sleep better at night.... (audible eyeroll). Actually, I do. With my Glock 21 and preban 13 round mag stoked with CorBon JHP rounds. Just in case a vampire attacks.
