This was at the Rieau Centre, a downtown shopping mall.

1. now it is starting to sound more like fundies-

guess we will see-

2. Could very well be ISIL inspired.

Terrorists usually go for targets of opportunity, and a mall is a very soft target.
I'm leaning towards the supposition that this has something to do with Canada's decision to join the US led airstrikes.

4. And ISIS isn't fundamentalist?

[GGJohn]

5. Make no mistake about it, they are fundamentalist fanatics,

but I suspect that the person I was responding to wasn't referring to the ISIL terrorists.
Regardless, I'll bet this has to do with Canada's decision to join the airstrikes.

6. actually, I was FYI

10. OK, thanks for the clarification and apologies for misinterpreting your post.

I'll edit to reflect that.

20. Fundamentalist is a bit of a misnomer. I could be wrong but I don't think I've ever heard of

old school Buddhists, a.k.a. fundamentalists, doing anything remotely similar as an expression of their beliefs.

3. Religion of jihad is my guess

7. UPDATE - Riedau Centre shooting occurred OUTSIDE the Mall.

21. Most people don't want to look behind the curtain

at this group that has received massive funding and allowed to poliferate uncontrolled on social media until recently.

We allow our allies to create our enemies. It keeps us afraid and fighting.
