「我離港前到過一間精神科醫院。當時有位病人禮貌地問,一個以作為世上最悠久民主政體而自傲的國家,如何能夠將此地交給一個政治制度非常不同的國家,且既沒諮詢當地公民,又沒給予他們民主的前景,好讓他們捍衞自己的將來。一個隨行同事說,奇怪,香港提出最理智問題的人,竟在精神科醫院。」彭定康 金融時報

“During a visit to a mental hospital before I left Hong Kong, a patient politely asked me how a country that prided itself on being the oldest democracy in the world had come to be handing over his city to another country with a very different system of government, without either consulting the citizens or giving them the prospect of democracy to safeguard their future. Strange, said one of my aides, that the man with the sanest question in Hong Kong is in a mental hospital.”Chris Patten Financial Times

九死五傷

九死五傷



繼校園槍響,美國又發生商場槍響,槍手祇有十九歲,最後留書是:
「我將會成名了」。


【明報專訊】美國內布拉斯加州東部城市奧馬哈一座商場發生槍擊案,造成包括槍手在內九人死亡,另有五人受傷。


據奧馬哈警方官員內格隆說,槍手行兇後在商場內自殺身亡。商場目前仍被封鎖。


目擊者在接受電視台採訪時說,周三下午,商場內傳出三、四十聲槍響,購物者和商場工作人員紛紛逃離商場,還有一些人在更衣間或儲存室內藏身,直至警方抵達後才離開。


據目擊者口述,槍手身穿綠色迷彩背心,手持自動步槍,行兇時看上去在尋找特定目標。


總統布殊當天早些時候在奧馬哈發表演講,但槍擊事件發生時已經離開該市。



[CNN} A 19-year-old man killed eight people and then himself with an assault rifle at a busy mall in Omaha on Wednesday, sending terrified workers and Christmas shoppers scrambling for cover.


"Now I will be famous," the gunman wrote in a suicide note, his landlady told CNN after finding a three-part document that she said included his will.

Police declined to discuss the contents of the note.


Five people were wounded, two of them critically, in the early afternoon rampage in the Midwestern U.S. city. Most of the victims at the upscale Westroads Mall were shot inside the Von Maur department store near the children's clothing area.

"It was horrible, just horrible," one woman told local television station KETV, saying she hid under a rack of clothes when the gunfire started.

The Nebraska shooting was the latest in a series of mass killings that have shocked the United States, where gun ownership is widespread and the right to bear arms is a fiercely contested constitutional issue.

The White House said it was a "terrible tragedy."


殺人就是為成名? 是甚麼教育?會讓一個未夠廿歲的後生仔有咁樣想法?


人死留名,豹死留皮。

這個是老問題,
美國一日唔立例管制,
一日就有啲腦"荀"未生埋嘅靚仔亂黎,
唔洗多吖,
幾個月一單就夠啦!

今朝睇新聞原來搶手是偷用繼父的AK47步槍,查AK47 步槍是俄國研制,但大量生產是中國大陸。

估唔到上次VT韓國學生殺人,被誤傳是中國學生,差些弄出個大頭佛美國人要反華示威。

先前回收中國製造玩具,今次如果證實國產AK47步槍是兇器, 要攪風攪雨的又可以大做文章,話中國輸入AK47步槍殺美國人喇。

美國人反華之心無奇不有,欲加之罪,何患無辭!!!

美國人擁有槍械,是憲法容許,不過有事發生,子彈橫飛,就是「死得人多」!!!

十八年前,在十二月六日,加拿大滿地可14名工程部女學生被槍殺,記憶猶新丶猶駭!!!

微豆兄:

嘩,你旅加已經有十八年歷史?

我祇記得去年,滿地可市有間社區學院,有槍擊事件, 死了一個女學生!

原來十八年前仲有單,更死得人多的槍擊事件。

楓葉國的憲法是否也是一樣容許公民藏槍械彈藥在家中?

Haricot 微豆 said...

楓葉國憲法沒有像美國的“the right to keep and bear arms”,公民要申取牌照和註册,才可以藏槍械彈藥在家中。

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gun_politics_in_Canada :

"... A 1996 study showed that Canada was in the mid-range of firearm ownership when compared with eight other western nations. Nearly 22% of Canadian households had at least one firearm..."

Thanks 夾 唔該嗮 微豆兄,
看來楓葉國對槍械都好寬鬆,
上網睇明報加東版多倫多市,
時常見有用槍兇殺仇殺案件。
