A spate of armed standoffs in the tiny Nunavut community of Cape Dorset began months before it was decided that the four RCMP officers stationed there had to be pulled out this week for what their commander says is “advanced health intervention.”Gawd forbid we assign any sort of blame here. Let's just pretend it's about, uh... "lead poisoning"... yeah, that's the ticket.
Just ask Fred Schell, the local MPP...
“In general they are good kids and good people. It’s just that they made a wrong decision, something sparked it and they got into an argument or something, and this happened,” he said. “I think it would help if, definitely, the guns were locked up.”Geez Fred... not to crap on your "no such thing as a bad boy" thesis... but maybe we could think about locking up the people who are actually pulling the triggers here?
Ah, screw it... "Chilean miners, yaaaaaayyyy!!!"

FROM THE COMMENTS:
"The problem is that they are tackling a non-existent problem. Demons don't kill people, people kill people."
"They should have been enforcing law against PEOPLE WHO BREAK THE LAW, not looking for mythical 'demons' to place the blame on so they could absolve the innocent native of any responsibility for their actions."
