A Neo-Con's Murder Spree
On December 6, 1989, Marc Lepine had murdered 16 University students at the École Polytechnique at the University of Montreal, located on the north slope of Mont Royal.

Lépine hd many failures. With each failure, his frustration grew. Even when women had nothing to do with it, he often blamed them.

Lépine's violent act in December 1989 was inspired, say Thomas Walkom in the Toronto Star, by neo-conservatism, "the ideological event of our times." It was a philosophy that derived from a focus on family values that stipulated a woman's exclusive role as homemaker, with all her significant decisions made by her husband. "Its centre pin has become anti-feminism," Walkom stated, because feminism was supposedly ruining the nation. Women filled boys with poison by trying to curb their aggressive instincts and turn them into girls. Women also increase the country's reliance on immigration for economic stability, because they refuse to have children and become proper mothers.

Of course, today this would seem like being on the far Right, almost to the point of Fascism. We need to keep an eye on those people who are saying that people should go out and kill Muslims, GLBT people, or Liberals, because it could happen some day.
