I'm so tired of hearing about the "heroes" that has the "entire nation in mourning", or so the fucking media tell us we should be. It's always sad when a child loses a parent, but when you're a cop, dying is a daily possibility. My problem with this shit is, the word hero is thrown around way too loosely. You were shot because you were wearing a uniform. It happens. Also, how many tears were shed when the women from the downtown eastside of vancouver were going missing and cops didn't give a fuck, or the women still going missing from the Highway Of Tears? When are the fucking heroes going to step up and stop this? And people talk about the shooter like he was a criminal just because he "has a poblem with authority". Since when is this a crime? Here's an article that has an interesting take on it...

WAS JUSTIN BOURQUE TAKING VENGEANCE AGAINST THE RCMP FOR POLICE BRUTALITY?
By: Terry Wilson
In the aftermath of the Moncton shooting, people everywhere have been trying to figure out why 24 year old Justin Bourque made the decision to shoot five RCMP officers.
Main stream media has adopted the usual insight into a shooter’s mindset. They have pointed to Justin’s “anti-government Freeman ideology, and his problems with authority. Even labeling Justin as a “pseudo-commando”
“24-year-old Bourque portrays himself as a gun enthusiast with an anti-authoritarian mindset, a description confirmed through interviews with friends and acquaintances.
“He’s always seemed to have a problem with authority,” Caitlin Isaac, who worked with Bourque at Wal-Mart several years ago, told Business Insider, adding that he had issues “with parents, bosses, police.”

In typical fashion, a more logical look at what could be the motivation behind his actions is being ignored.

“We’re not seeing a lot of media coverage on this connection. A friend of Justin was killed in an encounter with the RCMP last year”
The tweet includes a link to a CTV news report titled:Fredericton police investigate fatal shooting of Moncton man by RCMP
After further investigation into this story, we found out that the RCMP officers involved in the shooting of 30-year-old Daniel Levesque (Justin Bourque’s friend) on July 13, 2013. Had been cleared of wrong doing, less than two weeks before Justin shot five RCMP officers.

Was the horrific actions taken by Bourque fueled by the police homicide of his friend, then the officers being cleared of wrong doing in that shooting? Was this a case of vengeance against the RCMP?
It would seem to be a more likely scenario than Justin just being anti-authoritarian, or a part of the “Freeman” movement
