Don't be late for the parole hearing - stupid people and guns.

A man in Toronto yesterday carjacked an SUV to drive to a parole hearing. Bright dude. He slashed a woman with some scissors, stole her SUV and then lost control on the highway while weaving in and out of traffic. After rolling several times he tried to carjack several other vehicles that stopped to help at the accident. How does a guy figure he can steal a vehicle after slashing the owner and drive three hours down the highway to his parole officers office without getting caught? Perhaps she knows the license plate? Perhaps he'll get pulled over weaving in and out of traffic? In a stolen SUV? The stupidity really boggles the mind.

On the same day that we hear about a man in Vermont who kills his ex-girlfriend and her mother before killing himself, can we see a bright side here? He used scissors instead of a gun. Stupid people with scissors are less likely to kill people than stupid people with handguns.
