Here is an interview with someone who was actually on the streetcar.
Look I feel bad this kid melted down and lost his life as a result, but enough of this bullshit in Toronto where public places are being hijacked by people who feel its ok to pull out a gun or knife because they are having a bad day.
Honestly people are trying to turn this into another Travon Martin and it is not.
In my opinion the cop was stupid for firing as many times as he did but Sammy started all this by pulling out the fucking knife in the first place.
Also lets say for arguments sake that they took him down clean and arrested him, then he gets the 30 day assessment in CAMH nfrom there he is found that he is not criminally responsible then he is let out. Then a month later he snaps again and kills some lady with her kid or something. This has happened several times before in Toronto.
Sad what happened but this would have been the start of a lifetime of bullshit from this guy because they only get worse and worse.
I would love to see 2 things, the toxicology report and the cctv video that is on the streetcar, that would tell the story a lot more than video from 20 meters away from the streetcar.
