There Will Be Time For Debate Later

There is a lot of posting going on around the Canadian blogs about the murders of the RCMP officers. People want to know how this could happen of course, but there are a lot of people using this event to say "See? This validates my argument!" in relation to a horde of issues like marijuana decriminalization, gun registries, RCMP effectiveness, etc.


There will be time for debate and action later.


With the scanty details we have so far doing anything besides asking questions and mourning for those lost is pointless and wasteful. And as a result, disrespectful.


So let's have everyone wait and see what the facts and circumstances were before we use this for a political purpose.
