THREAD: The #NovaScotiaShooting is a tragedy. Lives have been lost. Much uncertainty and fear in times already saturated by both. Yet this does not absolve us from using critical thinking about the facts we do know already.

The RCMP have blamed all 19 (and more to come) deaths on ONE man, the "lone shooter" theory. A theory that is very, very popular for some reason with these type of events.

The lone shooter, 51 year old Gabriel Wortman, a denturist working and living in SMALL TOWN RURAL CANADA is somehow "not well known," yet he IS known, by locals, friends and family (i.e. he is not a "mystery" to anyone).

"Salt of the earth" according to one patron of his denture clinic (video cued up).

Other early reports on his character are “He was very jovial,” she said. “But there is another side to Gabe. He had some issues, especially with his girlfriend.” (all below quotes from the NP article linked here) https://nationalpost.com/news/who-was-gabriel-wortman-the-denturist-behind-the-nova-scotia-mass-shooting

and... “There was some underlying issues that I think he had with his relationship. It was a red flag …. (What happened on the weekend) wasn’t a surprise to some degree, but not to this extreme.”

and... “He had an obsession with his girlfriend. Just being jealous about things with her. I think that’s where things got in the way…. She was a beautiful girl.”

and... “I’m very surprised,”... “I never thought he would do something like that.” “From what I knew of him, he was QUIET, GENTLE and VERY EASY to talk to …. He was VERY NICE. He KIDDED AROUND a little bit. He seemed NORMAL, not like someone who would do something like this.”

During this killing spree, he found the time to cover not only the 50 km of distance that span the multiple crime scenes across the province of Nova Scotia, but also paused long enough to SET FIRES large enough and strong enough to COMPLETELY BURN DOWN 5 homes.

And did it all in UNDER 12 HOURS from the initial call to RCMP Saturday evening. On the very evening of Sunday April 19th, RCMP Commisioner Brenda Lucki does an interview with Ian Hanomansing "breaking news." She claims the "initial motivation" was there,...

then magically "turned to randomness" and that the investigation will have to "do a lot of work" in finding that motivation, then to explain the randomness, and thus give a complete background "profile" of the shooter...

that will explain all of this to the satisfaction of the public (her phrasing implies a narrative being crafted, not factual evidence that supports it). CBC's Ian Hannamansing also magically quotes access to INTERNAL RCMP EMAILS that very night that attest to the "pure evil"...

of this lone shooter. Lucki closes by assuring the public, AS THE NEWS IS LITERALLY BREAKING, that there is absolutely zero chance this is a terrorist attack and that instead it is most definitely a "murder" event by a lone shooter. (all in below clip)

So. I, you, are being asked to believe that... a man in his 50s, five full decades of life, jovial and funny and nice with a girlfriend according to the most random witnesses, a professional career and business requiring both intelligence and disciplined work ethic to achieve...

and sustain over decades, working mostly with seniors by the way who are very distrustful, who had some "relationship issues" with his girlfriend (don't we all)... then decided on Saturday night April 18th and Sunday 19th of this past weekend to...

Go on a murderous killing spree!!! Somehow this FIVE DECADE LONG adult male "just snapped." Vehicles and bodies randomly spread out in ditches along highways with torched homes and vehicles all over the place... ALL BY HIMSELF...

and somehow had an RCMP "like" replica cruiser to do it in. (Which the RCMP are VERY quick to assure us is NOT an actual cruiser.) Yet, we have video footage of what looks to be TWO RCMP cruisers torched on the highway and a photo of the suspect replica (no MSM journo ever...

explains this photo or any video footage) with a DEALERSHIP STICKER in the window (hardly a fixer upper).

And no close up footage of any burned out homes (which could be done respectfully with no issues for reporting) which I am sure the RCMP could give media access to, even if from a small distance away. Again... we are supposed to believe that an adult male...

just passed five decades of a clearly full and active life, in a recognized medical profession, running his own business, dealing mostly with seniors, who does have people who know him and have said he is normal, who has never had any violent past and was not known to the RCMP,..

somehow decides to go killing known, and unknown, people, covering over 50 kms, burning down five homes to the ground, for which the RCMP have said they have no idea the weapons used (as if his "guns" just magically dissappeared after exchanging fire)

And though reported as being "in custody", somehow ends up DEAD. While this appears odd to normal and logical people, the RCMP can't comment because there are not one, not two but THREE investigations by SIRT (sirtDOTnovascotiaDOTca) underway.

With even the little we now know, I wonder what the possible "profile" for a middle aged and clearly out of shape denturist will be to explain why he mysteriously after five decades just "snapped" and murdered double digits while pyro-ing his way around Nova Scotia...

in a "replica" RCMP cruiser (with dealer stickers) for which Lucki cannot comment in any way on a) what weapons he used or b) if they were registered or not, but can somehow assure the public with 100% confidence this was NOT a terrorist attack, but that of a pure evil person.

If this event is what I suspect it is, the RCMP investigation will "prove" that Gabriel Wortman was some kind of white nationalist, or populist or whatever they need to demonize multi-generation RURAL Canadians with in order to completely STRIP them of their gun rights. Forever.

Curiously, this tragedy coincides PERFECTLY with Trudeau trying to avoid returning to parliament to face opposition questions on China's role in the outbreak that has us all locked up like prisoners in our homes, the once free land of Canada, no more.

End thread. Hope this reaches @tweetheart717, @peterdowningAB, @SpencerFernando, @presscoreca, @DeniseInCanada, @MarkFriesen08, @LadyQanuck, @DanDicksPFT. The #NovaScotiaShooting must be investigated, but the investigators and media must also be held accountable to the facts.

This is the 2nd thread on the Nova Scotia shooting. Added it to the bottom of the first to organize a little better. https://twitter.com/CanuckHonor/status/1252633715290841091?s=20
