Montreal Madness

September 19th, 2006

What is it about Montreal that makes the natives want to shoot up their schools?

Last week a distinctly disturbed individual with a hatred of … well … everything, went people hunting Montreal’s Dawson College, before thankfully auto-cleansing himself from the gene pool.

What caught my attention, besides how Canada’s gun registry did nothing to prevent this particular form of madness, was that Montreal seems to be particularly afflicted by maniacs, and they love to level institutes of higher education.

Canada’s worst mass shooting took place in Montreal when gunman Marc Lepine killed 14 at the Ecole Polytechnic on Dec. 6, 1989.  Another shooting occurred in Montreal in 1992 when a Concordia University professor killed four colleagues.

To my Canadian friends I say send your kids to school in Toronto, or even down here in the U.S.  Anyplace but Montreal as no school appears to be safe there.
