But it's in another country? Canadians from my experience, generally have a calmer mindset.


Horrible news to hear about. Despicable act.
RIP to the victims.

Mr. Incognito

Canada is beside the US. It's not on the other side of the world. We are on the other side of the Ocean and Boards is awash with people cheeringleading Trumps idiocy racism on here.

If you have ever been there you would know that there are plenty of US residents and they see themselves as North Amercians as well as Canadians especially in cities like Toronto.

You can't really just cry Trump every time something bad happen in any country. Why not blame farage?

Shocking to hear of this in a perviously so quiet and peaceloving country. Even the newsreporter was shocked & upset covering it - we have become too automated & sterile in our state reporting & responses - terrible to see.

philstar

it could be left wing nuts trying to make right wing nuts look bad

or maybe just a plain nut

Mr. Incognito

Yeah,

So a gun attack on a Mosque a day after a US ban on Muslums is a co-incidence.

Are people really incapable of applying simple logic these days.

We already know, it's a spat amongst the followers of the religion of peace.

Wisely Trump has revoked visa access to the citizens of a select few failed states in the Middle East to ensure America doesn't import this kind of internecine tribal warfare.

Coincidence isnt facts though ... ill wait to hear what exactly transpired before jumping to conclusions ...

I'm sure the Québec police will release information later today when they have it. It's a french heritage judicial legal system with a civil code. So it does not take it all that long to get to the state where they'll have a suspect in custody.

You're going to look pretty silly should the attackers be revealed as Muslims also. But then, who needs facts when you have a point to prove?

You think a normal guy woke up yesterday, saw trump's actions in a different country and said "I'm now radicalised".

For all we know this is a inter Muslim attack.

The Mirror are reporting that one was Moroccian and shouted Allah Akbar so maybe I am wrong. If I am I will say so.

Morocco is on the list?

Trump has about as much of a clue as the average cowardly terrorist enabler on boards.ie

Wisely, the Irish government doesn't let our basement dwellers anywhere near immigration policy.

Claims one of the shooters is from Quebec and the other is an Arab.

There was a shooting at a mosque in Zurich last month. I wonder how people could attribute that to Trump?

There's applying logic and there's jumping to conclusions.

Now watch the debate turn to gun control.....

Why didn't he ban Saudis?

RobertKK

One is a local from Quebec, the other shooter is of Moroccan origin.
They shouted Allahu Akbar as they opened fire inside the mosque.
One of the shooters rang the police saying he felt bad for what he did.
The police came and arrested them.

Yep, people that just love giving them what they want.

I often get called a liberal and a leftie and such, and it's a great compliment and all, but I have way too much contempt for those that bow down before terrorist scum to ever be considered as either.

I'm confused about this attack. There are reports that the gunmen shouted "Alluha Akbar" before shooting. But why are they firing at Muslims? Isn't that their own people?

Completely understandable. What other conclusion could you be lead to draw when the PM of Canada described it as a terrorist attack and the Indo peppers it's article about the incident with stuff that heavily implies it was a right wing attack:

http://www.independent.ie/world-news/north-america/three-gunmen-open-fire-in-quebec-mosque-killing-six-people-and-seriously-injuring-eight-35407982.html
"Incidents of Islamophobia have increased in Quebec in recent years. The face-covering, or niqab, became a big issue in the 2015 Canadian federal election, especially in Quebec, where the majority of the population supported a ban on it at citizenship ceremonies.
In 2013, police investigated after a mosque in the Saguenay region of the province was splattered with what was believed to be pig blood. In the neighbouring province of Ontario, a mosque was set on fire in 2015, a day after an attack by gunmen and suicide bombers in Paris.
Zebida Bendjeddou, who left the Quebec City mosque earlier on Sunday evening, said the centre had received threats."


What other conclusion are you to draw? Of course they did exactly the same thing after the truck attack in Germany when that story was accompanied and linked with an article about a shooting in a mosque in Zurich, which it also heavily implied was right wing extremism when in fact the shooter was a member of the mosque.

And they have the nerve to bleat about fake news....

Hande hoche!

Could be a different branch of Islam?

They want death and carnage. I can't see how Boards users give it to them. I'm guessing you mean, people are perpetuating divisive ideas and assisting ISIS in pitting the Muslim and non Muslim worlds against each other?

If so, I don't really buy that theory. Well, I think it's overstated. Obviously, indiscriminate hatred is not going to help anything, but criticising aspects of the religion is not playing into their hands. When ISIS released a hostage, he said that is their goal, but how can you trust anything he says..either he has Stockholm syndrome or they've fed him whatever lines they want him to disseminate to the world.
