Oh goody! Another bullshit article from another crackpot "reporter" that can't get a real job, so he posts horseshit on his very own website!
We need more of THAT!
This is just about a textbook definition of an ad hominem logical fallacy.

"The source of that gun is of tremendous interest to us," said RCMP Commissioner Bob Paulson on Thursday, "and we will determine where that gun came from."
Lies the police tell us.

The design of the lever-action rifle, virtually unchanged for 120 years, may have limited Zehaf-Bibeau's ability to inflict mass casualties on Parliament Hill. Ie bolt action, no magazine. If it had been semi-auto, the other soldier would likely be dead too.
This is false, the most important factor in a shooters deadliness is skill, not the weapon.

Unlike more modern rifles that can be reloaded with a clip or magazine containing multiple rounds, the Winchester, once empty, must be painstakingly reloaded round-by-round, inserting the cartridges into a small port on the side of the receiver. The process takes an experienced shooter about 30 seconds -- an eternity in the kind of shootout that took place inside Centre Block.
30s to load 7 rounds is a exaggeration. 7 rounds in 30s is a slow leisurely loading. You can watch hickok45 load 4 rounds in 12s and he's slow while talking to the camera.
Also 30s while a long time, is hardly an eternity. While moving you can load a model 94 as it's action doesn't require any operation to allow rounds to be loaded.

That means he would have had a maximum of five shots left, and more likely four, when he headed for Parliament. Security camera pictures show that he did not pause to reload.
He doesn't have to stop to reload.

That fact may explain why Zehaf-Bibeau passed on two easy opportunities to kill people on Parliament Hill. First, he allowed the driver of a government car he hijacked to escape. A few seconds later, he exited the car at the front doors of Centre Block, only metres from a group of three individuals. Again, he did not open fire.
A more likely answer is that he wanted to kill important looking people, like someone in a uniform.
$1:
Had he shot those people, he would have been entering Parliament with an empty rifle.
Unless he reloaded on the move.

If his attack was indeed inspired by ISIS propaganda, it seems unlikely that he would have been so discriminating in his choice of targets. ISIS spokesman Abu Muhammad al-Adnani specifically instructed the group's adherents in the West not to spare civilians, in a video message released last month.
Passing on one target for another is logical and could be unrelated to the rounds in the firearm.

It is standard practice in Canada for courts to issue a lifetime gun ban to almost anyone convicted of a violent offence.
Because it makes sense to let people you can't trust with a firearm, walk around free. If you can't trust them with a firearm, they should be in jail. Easy as that.
Same goes for sex offenders, violent criminals and everyone else.
If you can not be trusted with potentially dangerous items then you can't be trusted to live free.
Either keep people locked up, or grant them full equal membership in society.

Ottawa lawyer Solomon Friedman is one of Canada's leading experts on firearms law, and has testified several times before Parliament on the issue.
"I would tell this person it is almost impossible, if not impossible, for you to obtain firearms."
Legally. Forgot that legally part.

He says police consult the CPIC (Canadian Police Intelligence Centre) database when considering licence applications. CPIC shows all contact with police or mental health authorities, not only convictions.
Because we deny people rights and privileges based on the police fishing for crimes. Yet another reason to never tell the police anything, show them ID or name yourself.
$1:
It may be that last possibility that explains why police are so focused on tracking the weapon's history.
They are focused on it because it supports their belief in a police state that tracks citizens and their actions, while glossing over their own failure to stop this attack, or the other Islamic terrorists attacks on CF members in the past few weeks.
"If only we had kept the LGR this could have been stopped. It's not our fault the tools we need to keep people safe have been taken from us."
The RCMP's long history of dodging blame seems to be a continuing tradition. I can't wait for them to cry about the need for a LGR, or more authority to snoop in people's private lives.

One of them was a crack head. I guess his religion is more important, but he was a crack head. No one usually cares about the religion of a crack head. Unless it is Islam. Than it trumps the crack head thing.
Crack does a lot of things to people, but it doesn't turn them into terrorists. Other than terrorists for liberals if you happen to be a Mayor of a large city.
