The 35th anniversary of the Ecole Polytechnique (Montreal) Massacre.

I'll be as brief as possible on this topic today; but on this National Day against Violence Against

Women here in Canada, these acts of cowardice and repugnation must stop. 14 innocent women were

murdered by a demented Marc Lepine, who legally purchased a weapon; and then committed mass

slaughter, whether he was simply mentally ill, or he resented the idea of equality for women. It's yet

another sensitive topic surrounding gun control laws, even in America, but violence against women

must cease to exist, once and for all. I have never been tempermental or violent in my entire life, so I

could never accept or condone this senseless behaviour. I have a previous composition titled; "Ribbons

--Remembrance or Defiance", which shares my opinion and view on wearing coloured ribbons on such

sad occasions as these; however, please show respect and wear your purple or white ribbons on this day

to remember all women that have been the victims of acts of harsh aggression and violence, this can

never stand, we are all still created equally under God, and our differences, positive in particular; should

be valued and never distained, there are many negative differences and emotions as well, but I'm not nor

will I ever be an expert in psychology of the human mind; rest in eternal peace to all victims of violence.
