Default Genocide????

Could be the start? There’s a beginning to everything. Discuss

It sure is difficult to not connect the cases. The killer(s?) seems to have no issue when dealing with pairs of people. Generally the cretins just go for lone victims but this perp seems to buck that trend. Wonder if the offender is merely a mental case or if they’re a mental case on hard drugs? Is it a pair of offenders and if so is it two guys or a male and a female?

It would be a scary area to travel these days, even if you’re armed. Who knows what the guys MO is? Do they have some ruse to get people to pull over (ie: fake a mechanical breakdown) and do they just start shooting off the bat or do they initiate a conversation first?

You need to review the definition of genocide. Murder of random people does not constitute the systematic destruction or elimination a group.

Either way sad state of affairs and I hope the Police find those responsible!

Thought this thread was going to be about South Africa.

More like a serial killer I'd say.

Tried reading through the comments after the link, absolutely disgusting the amount of stupidity and ignorance on display, should of expected it on CBC

International media is calling it the work of a serial killer.

Nope. Genocide

Appears all victims are Caucasian

Almost 1200 indigenous women have been killed since between 1980 and 2012.

What will they say about the deaths of these 5 Caucasians in 32 years? Maybe nothing, maybe it was the beginning of something bigger. Who knows?

Police have solved none of these murders. Is it apathy? Dunno.

I thought this thread was going to be about sparkle socks and the genocide Canada has committed against its First Nations people.

Isn't that close of the Highway of Tears, where a bunch of people were killed, years ago ? Nobody was ever apprehended.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Highway_of_Tears

Then of course there was Michael Oros. Stange things happen under the midnight Sun, as they say.

Not with the liberal definition. And you can group all Caucasian murders together.

But for the record. I don’t think this would fit the term genocide.

Mass murder or homicide but not genocide. Unless you are saying these incidents are being perpetuated by one political group or ethnicity upon another for the purpose of destroying in whole or in part.

I think I can read between your lines here. That would really be something if it turned out to be the case. If I'm on the right track here one has to wonder where government would side. Liberals would probably deem it to be justifiable and within reason due to long term extenuating factors.

A bad situation though. Fella has no compunction about taking a life. The news had a sketch of a guy they'd like a visit with

Be a bugger of a way to look for attention wouldn't it? One I think those seeking said attention could learn to regret in a big way.

Amazing how blameless some can hold themselves and how government has mollycoddled to the point of it being the norm.

Ahh yes, one identifiable group has recently been told by government officials that genocide has occurred against them by team European settlers, now perhaps a few of the fringe elements within that group might take such a declaration as justification in taking whitey down.

Well, I believe Caucasians are as important as any other race.

Genicide...no wonder so much of the country thinks we’re looney.
Not many people think murder by a serial killer a joking matter.
I worked with Sharon Rosenfeldt whose son was murdered on the Highway of Tears and went on to start Victims of Violence.
I’m sure she’d think this is a real ‘ha-ha’ subject.
Actually I don’t think she would.

Would be a political bomb shell if this were to turn out like the Morley affair.
