Loud and Clear

If you aren’t from the Toronto area, you probably have not heard of the double homicide that occurred here a few months ago. Two men were shot and killed while sitting in their vehicle outside of a friends apartment. No they weren’t doing anything illegal, they were simply sitting with their seat belts on, along with a passenger in the backseat. Fast forward to now, the men are dead and the woman is most likely in a permanent state of shock while the shooter is free to do what he pleases.

You know, I totally get it. I understand the government doesn’t want crime to end, they don’t want violence to stop. I understand, they have to take that stance because without a population in fear, they have no control. Fine, I get it. However, why not at least make simple steps to fine tune their stance, maybe instill fear into society another way, without taking innocent lives? Is it even possible?  So before you go vote and elect a new form of “Power”, stop and think about how governments are in place to act on the peoples wishes. With that said, they also are in place to make money (money > people).
