Of course, nobody was armed so they just ran away from the crazed loon with the big, scary knife!



Bus Passenger Beheaded on Canada Prairies

WINNIPEG, Manitoba (Reuters) - A man sleeping on a Greyhound bus as it rolled across the Canadian Prairies was killed and decapitated by his seatmate on Wednesday night, other passengers who were on the bus told media on Thursday.

"All of a sudden, we all heard this scream, this bloodcurdling scream," said Garnet Caton, who was sitting just in front of the victim, in an interview with CBC Television.

"The attacker was standing up right over top of the guy with a large hunting knife -- a survival, Rambo knife -- holding the guy and continually stabbing him, stabbing him, stabbing him in the chest area," Caton said.

The attack continued as other passengers fled the bus and waited for police on a desolated stretch of the TransCanada Highway near Portage la Prairie, Manitoba, said Caton, who helped bar the bus door to prevent the attacker from leaving.

"He calmly walks up to the front (of the bus) with the head in his hand and the knife and just calmly stares at us and drops the head right in front of us," Caton said.

"There was no rage in him ... It was just like he was a robot or something."

CBC reported the Royal Canadian Mounted Police took the attacker into custody, but the police have not yet commented.

Don't you think that someone, anyone, who had bothered to arm themselves for their own protection, or even the bus driver, whose passengers are his responsibility, might have been able to stop the attack?

Instead, the sheeple just ran away and let the guy get beheaded!!

How messed up is that?

shooter, let's play a game.

You are packin', and 10 rows up in that bus.

You rouse from a nap to the sound of two men quarreling, and see them fighting over a big knife.

With all the other passengers screaming and scrambling, what is your next move?

Every bus has a fire extinguisher. The driver should have at least attempted to save his passenger. This is chicken **** of the first degree. The bus driver should be fired. But, since it's Canada, they'll probably give him a medal for capturing the killer. Maybe it will have a little head on it.

As is the style of cjhsa..... he makes the story about Canada rather than about the victim. Anything for the opportunity to smear something or somebody huh.

Talk is cheap.

Talk may be cheap, but I'll bet you would want cj on that bus if it were you being attacked.

So am I, but I wouldn't be shooting in a crowded bus! Besides, I wasn't necessarily remarking about his shooting ability. I was referring to his emotional state.

The people escaped and barred the door, technically they didnt run. Would an armed douche bag like cj sitting with a gun be able to keep from hitting kids and old farts? cj is all vines and no taters

Well, here is the video where the guy who was sitting in the seat in front of the killer explains what happened.

Let's say you would have been in his position, and armed. How would you have saved the victim?

Confused

Well, this should be the link to the article. In the 'video' section, there are three videos. One of them is the guy who was sitting in front of the killer, Garnet Caton, describing the event.

On the news report I heard on this last night it said...

After barricading the doors, the passengers saw the man hold up the victim's head that he allegedly decapitated.

I love the use of allegedly - I know they have to use it as the killer has not been determined guilty but come on - who else could have decpaitated the guy or perhaps the head fell off by itself.

<yes I am sick that this is what I pondered over>
