Default Is COVID driving people to the edge?

1. A guy walks into a red deer doctor’s office and murders the physician with a machete and a hammer.

2. Two punks show up on a busy Toronto beach with running chainsaws looking for blood.

3. Trudeau remains as PM in a minority government and nobody really likes him except for the people of Ontario and the maritimes.

1. Complete nutcase

2. Idiots that need a beatdown

3. Should be on Ripleys believe it or not

Honestly wondered when some loon would attack a doctor, pretty easy in a small room one on one. Bad deal for the physician, Im sure the loon will serve 2-5 years while he “turns his life around”

Only the weak and feeble minded — including those who look at masks as threats to their liberty and those who are connecting COVID to a fictitious pedophile ring of celebs buying their kiddies off of Wayfair.

People were hacking people to pieces long before covid

Covid is just another bloody excuse

Now if we could get some covid crazies with chainsaws and flamethrowers in Parliament, that might make it all seem more sensible........

Until then, its just another day in New Canada

You make a good point.

I have a gut feeling that we will eventually approach a Societal breaking point with all this.

Exactly! And just wait until the people that collected CERB have to pay taxes on it next spring.

That will be the least of some folks problems.
But you're right, taxes should have been taken off CERB the same as UI. Big mistake on the governments part. Some are spending it all just trying to get by

I’m sure that there are people suffering mental health issues due to the pandemic. However, There have always been crazies in society and there probably always will be.

I find the recent “mass hysteria” and unrest in our society more concerning.

The taxes will be spread around. Those who didn't collect will help pay for those who did. It's the Canadian way.

exactly. Everyone stop asking questions and just believe what the media and politicians say, the same people solely responsible for screwing up the country. This will undoubtedly make you a very strong and powerful mind.🥴 also how do you know its fictitious? Just wondering.

There has always been crazy people but when you apply high levels of stress you are going to see more people breakdown too

I would not blame it all on Covid19 but the stress it has created maybe the trigger that causes some to snap

Add halfwits that believe anything the media tells them and refuse to look into anything for themselves.

Epstein didn't kill himself.

Hope these beliefs aren't part of your curriculum this year. Disappointing impressionable minds may hear it

Take Covid, social isolation over an extended time period, , financial pressures from lack of income , uncertain and conflicting ways about how to deal with the virus and stress is bound to be ratcheted up. Some experts claim, Christmas is going to be the breaking point. We're not used to this level of stress.
