GOOD MORNING AMERICA'S HOMEPAGE:
gma.yahoo.com/
That police officer had balls of steal. What a freakin hero!
Ryan Phillips Fuck yea man
rayan phillips i agree stood his grownd
So he stole his own nuts or what?
"shoot me in the head". He caused so much harm and deliberately did not want to live and pay for what he did. It makes me physically sick.
Addy Traylor
Agreed, he's basically taking the coward's way out.
Addy Traylor He is a coward!
yeah... "shoot me in the head and give me my painless death so i dont have to suffer unlike the others i just ran over!!"
Such a coward
Sapsaol Ortega YOU ONLY USE ALL CAPS BECAUSE YOUR POINT IS INVALID, SO AT THIS POINT YOU ONLY WANT ATTENTION.
L, dude was white
HE POINTED A GUN...AND DID NOT GET SHOT 30 TIMES. ..
JANICE52508 he was pointing at them, his gun was never pulled from his pocket it was a cellphone, cmon janice use some common sense. Stop trying to race bait off of a tragic event.
Slippi Shut up!!
That Officer showed amazing skill under pressure. Hopefully a lesson for others. Less trigger, more brain.
Canadian cops 👮♀️ aren’t allowed to carry loaded firearms, it scares the citizenry.
coward police officers are only trained to kill black people specially in usa.
You mean to tell me that people can still commit mass murder without guns?! That's preposterous!
Listen to this: Ever heard about a bomb? You sir represent the idiocy of your village well.
xldjvista r/woosh
Damn. This is beyond sad. If he wanted to die, why did he have to take so many innocent people away from their loved ones. This man is a heartless coward. I hope the families of the deceased can find peace in the midst of this tragedy.
Omowàle Zaquir amen... God help us all this is a sick world that is rapidly becoming more and more out of touch with itself.
Unfortunately he was promised 72 virgins if he takes out a bunch of infidels. Those poor victims...
@Christopher Ryan Curtis I hope you're joking.
Evil
Omowàle Zaquir well this been the United States and he had been a black man who have been shot Stone dead until the cops empty their clips and then reload it what wait a minute you have to be unarmed first I mean the cops don't feel right if he got a gun on it they like to shoot unarmed black men and what about the paperwork later
Rest In Peace to those who lost there life’s and prayers to the families
rafael hernandez haha hell no
uriel salas Edgy!
ghost62101 so true. Some people have no hearts for others
bullshit news network prayer does help!
rafael hernandez
i pray to god
all hail lord ZEUS
The only thing that can stop a bad guy with a van, is a good guy with a van.
Or just anoint me as dictator of the entire world. I have a plan
Invalid point. Support mental health, humanitarian and social services. Your comment makes it seem that you are joking which isn't good either furry.
oo some van head on action!
I'm going to hell. I giggled.
Woofalot you are totally correct
Toronto Native currently living in Philadelphia, I’m thinking about all of you tonight my fellow Canadians. The OPP officer who took the idiot down was BEYOND BRAVE!
Spectrum why would you move to shitdelphia?
It was a Toronto Police officer not an OPP officer.
Wtf is wrong with people?
ADAJ3 Just wait till ALL drugs are legal.
it was a muslim did it.
more like what isn't wrong with people?
They are either white or Arab😀😁😂😁😉
Steven Dean Sorry to break it bud but it wasn't a Muslim.
Buddy would have been dead before he had time to raise that cell phone in the states.
JOHNNY ROD KNOCK I'm not, that cop is Canadian, he chill as hell.
O yea he would have been dead in USA...
Takes discipline and courage.
NOT!! NEW MANDATE , TAKE THEM ALIVE!! PAY ATTENTION
Yeudy Garcia but now u have to pay for him for the rest of your life
I was thinking murder would be impossible in gun free zones...go figure.
Bryan Manning Do not attempt thinking future an icepick will end your days you village idiots.
It's amazing, it seems someone intent on doing harm will do so, be it with a gun, knife or a rental van. It's an inconvenient truth that the only thing that stops a bad person is a good person with a gun
When are we gonna ban these fully automatic vans with 12,000lb clip and Led laser headlights for improved accuracy? I've seen it at a local car show...you don't even have to pass a background check and you can buy either a semiautomatic(manual) or a fully automatic van.
Rusty Shackleford stfu dumbass
Drew Montoya
Hillary voter detected.
get mad when faced with facts and logic and can't argue back.
let's see you smartasses blame the weapon instead of the person. cause we all know that "Guns" keep going around shooting people by themselves. that's why they need to be banned.
Rusty Shackleford Im a Trump voter dummy sadly shit like this can happend theres nothing we can do but yes we need to pass laws so people like this cant be able to get weapons that can make it easier to kill people.
You know there's ways to keep cars away from public spaces, right? Cities just won't to pay for it until it's really needed. Unless gun owners have their say, then they'll even defend car ramming as an extension of their right to bear arms. They will say they won't run over anyone, *but they have the right to potentially do*. They will go against any initiative to prevent atrocities from continuing.
Rusty Shackleford wtf
The world is a nightmare
Leon Chen
Yup
Are you realizing that just now?
This is hell, purgatory, the testing place.
Not the world buddy just the mammals living here
It was built on nightmares.
Im watching all these shots of first-responders literally Palm-Stomping "victims". Even in a case of mild choking, that kind of action can kill someone. WTF is going on?
Can't believe how many people here joke about death
A van is an assault weapon vans should be banned.
So conservatives are okay with making schools into prisons to protect from guns, but won't make any initiative to make public spaces and sidewalks enclosed to prevent car rammings.
shane
It depends on who has a gun,if the military has guns than yes those guns are meant to kill people,if a civilian has a gun than the gun is meant to protect the innocent because there isn't always gonna be a cop everytime you callout for one,I don't have a problem with people who don't like guns I have a problem with people who don't look at every reasonable reason for certain people to have guns I hope anyone who reads this can see where im going with this.
Where are the moms against van violence when you need them?
I hope that's a joke.
Ask "MADD" they love your insightful commentary
My heart goes out to all the victims and their families may God rest their soul and give them peace.
All my love goes out to the families who lost their loved ones and the families of those wounded. Beyond sad... I live so close to where this happened. This world smh
This is why I never go outside. Too scary.... 😞
Apparently We need more car regulations
Rest in peace to all those people.
Ban all fully automatic assault vans!
My heart goes out to you Toronto. Praying for you all.
Man praying for the families who lost love ones and for those who had to see this horrible incident.
Its so sad that the good people in this world, the innocent, the children and the elderly are the ones who's life's are cut short because of one mans personal demons..Instead of shooting him in the head i vote that he gets ran over by the same van he used to take others loved ones..Thought's and prayers for the families of the dead..This world is becoming a sad place.
Michael Minton yea it it seems that all the innocent good people of the world are suffering more than the bad 😔
It's The rapture happening slowly
Lesvinx I don't find anything funny about it..It doesn't matter what you ban innocent people will always be targets.. I lost my brother to a hit and run when he was on his Harley.. It's up to us the human species to try and bring some good back in this world..
John Galt I have no idea what your point is.. Im pretty sure those people didn't die because they were nice or weak..Its simply wrong place at the wrong time..That could have been someone in my family or my child..It could have been someone you loved..No one can predict when a tragedy happens but as humans we can do are part to help people who's loved ones were the victims.. Something like a go fund me page for there funeral's or something as simple as a prayer sent there way.
Michael Minton
Cruelty such as this deserves punishment, but death in the form of murder in any fashion, no matter the reason, is wrong! If we were to take this mans life out of anger over what he did, we’d be no different than him, we’d just be using a different excuse for killing as an outlet. This man deserves to be locked up in a 4by4 cell with nothing to do but rot away so he cannot harm another. Hatred and anger breeds only more hatred and anger. And hatred and anger is the root of all human wars and conflicts! Don’t become a seed of hatred, quell your anger and try to focus on comforting the loved ones of the fallen victims of this mans rage!
No one should have a Ghost Van.
Time for the Democraps... I mean Democrats to start banning Trucks, Vans and Cars especially if they are Automatics. And start raising the age to buy gasoline. Just saying.
Toronto is like my second home. I used to go there 3 times a year as a child. I have family who live there. My thoughts and prayers are with those who lost loved ones and those fighting for their lives in hospital.
So sorry for all those innocent people , prayers for their family🙏🏼
We’re living in the last days it’s never to late to get straight with God and keep praying 🙏🏽
Lia Johnson Amen Lia! That should be everyones main goal right now
I supposed we need to ban cars and vans now?
If the basic argument is the thing that is involved in the crimes should be banned, you're correct. The problem is these gun banning idiots don't see the correlation which they should if the fundamental argument is that it's the weapon that's bad not the madman behind it or using it.
I blame inbreeding.
He did that because he was incel. He was not successful with girls. Then, it's God's fault. If God made him a Casanova, this would not have happened. If he was a Casanova, he would be dating and having sex with girls on a regular basis. So, blame God.
My heart goes out to the families!
My heart goes out to everyone! This is horrible!
Will vehicles be ban soon?
Tc Chan Lets ban dumbass comments like yours.
This comment has very poor grammar
It's a legitimate question, let's not jump to silencing people who disagree with you. Sounds pretty fascist to me
9 is better than 50
It's a legitimate question, should we ban cars just because people use them for evil? Should we blame the car or blame the person behind the car?
The van must have been fully automatic. I'm pretty sure they are going to ban it. Wonder if they are going to raise the age to 21 in order to rent a van.
ghostrider750 000 it’s already 21 to rent a van tho.. but I do enjoy the humor
I heard it was a high capacity van too ... I bet it held more than 30 gallons of gas. Ban vans ! Ban people walking on sidewalks !
smh
clearly that would be the solution is to punish everybody else...
1.the guys was 25, raising it to 21 ain’t gonna do shit
2.what does the transmission type have to do with anything, I don’t understand
BTW, nice satire you got me, gonna leave this here though, I need to accept my shame
The person who did horrible thing to innocent people need to brought to justice 🤬🤬🤬😡😡😡
He is in court
Its unthinkable... evil has no place in humanity. Its gotta stop man
WTH is wrong with people?
TechCare Bilisim you mean white people
Everything
What the hell is wrong with your spelling#ijs
Andre Nash
Armenians aren't white lol
A RB 😂😂😂😂😂😂I funny driver in GTA my car went flying in the rocket car and my normal car
great job to that officer for handling the situation so well. He deserves a raise!!
LilyAsha♡ no he needs to get slapped for not shooting the terrorist, I bet if ur was a black man who only ran a red light he would have shot him 21 times!
WINTER Time duuuuuude!! Its not always about race! Not ALL the cops are going to fucking shoot! Some are pre militart that know to shoot only when shot at. This is not about race
LilyAsha♡ it's Canada!! Lol.
Yeah, why wasn't he shot on the spot?? If any black or Hispanic man would've claimed to have a gun and pulled out an unidentified object, they'd have been shot without hesitation, KAPOW!! 🙄😒
LilyAsha♡ all you guys saying he should of shot him. That’s what he wanted, he wanted to die so he didn’t have to face charges. Now he’s alive and gets to live in shitty prison for his life instead of ending it all. I’m proud of the cop.
The van didn"t "jump the curb". it wasnt a fucking accident
why was the driver carrying a gun.
No it wasnt
Brandon Haden Read the comment more carefully, he said "it wasn't an accident"
Steven rphhO
ਂ.
"Van" "jumps curb"..."allegedly" ramming into people repeatedly. The title and description of this video would have us believe that a van(under its own power) accidentally strayed from the roadway and "may" have killed a bunch of people. Real honest reporting.
I demand stricter background checks on all van rentals! There are far too many deaths caused by automobiles! Anyone can get a driver's license, and that's just not okay anymore. Maybe in the past it was okay for everybody to have a driver's license, but not now! in this day and age we need to be more careful who has a driver's license.
Well there’s a system that will counter your argument. For one there aren’t as many of these incidents as you wish to believe as there are for firearms, so not many people will agree let alone any politicians. Second, insurances will love when there is an auto crash, that’s mainly how they do business, but with an incident like this it’s reasonable to see from your point of view, but making the process of obtaining vehicles stricter is allowing governments to have more power and having the people become restrained.
You can install physical dividers between sidewalks and the road. problem solved, no additional regulation needed. How do you physically divide people from bullets, with no regulation?
Above Aero it’s the same for guns dude lol
snow1snow1 i see what you did there good sir😎
All vans or just "assault style" vans ?
This is what happens when you have no boarders
The only thing that can stop a bad guy with a van is a good guy with a van
I like looking into cases, police files and unsolved murders, and try to put the pieces together as much as i can
but what i would wanna say is that my condolences goes out to the beautiful families who have lost their loved one
and prayers for those who are in hospital fighting for their lives
Praying for Canada, REST-IN-PEACE
Anrae Godley-Cooper are you praying, or just saying it?
it's crazy seeing how differently police from another country react to someone pointing "an object" at them, here in the U.S. the man would have been shot dead soon as he reached into his pocket. They ended up arresting him alive WOW. Bravo to that policeman for reacting calmly under tense situation.
If it was a black guy in the U.S as soon as he stepped out the van he would have been shot
Would you come to the same conclusion if the suspect actually has a real gun and shot the police?
He did kill 5 people . As a black man knowing that if he was black he would have been dead. ..the cop gets no points from me for taking him alive... dude is a serial killer...prison is not gonna change him ...it's only gonna make him more of what he is.. If it's him or me it's gonna be him
iSoBrody you mean as soon as they saw he was black he be shot
iSoBrody straight up
It’s crazy how they were trying to help him instead of shoot him dead and possibly stopping a deadly shoot out that could’ve possibly happen, This proves many things that I don’t need to get into.
Those poor people... Heartbreaking.
please install hard volard or street trees against vehicle terror. in south korea, they have so many volard and street tree. so it protect pedestrians by many car crashes. sorry for my poor english.
It's a good idea. But in many western countries denial is everywhere.
I told local city officials about installing some and they acted as if i was a street bum which i am not. Too many idiots separated from reality here in north america as well as the horrendous europe la la land.
Your country has really good healthcare yeah? You guys even have voluntary effective suicide watchers! Featured in Vice. What the Western world needs is good mental health and humanitarian services! The government does not provide that because they have motives obviously...Do research on capitalism/consuerism culture and the government's major motives behind them. The US especially.
Its a shame most of the people in this comment section only want to use this incident to argue their views on gun laws. Its irrelevant in this case. That man didn't kill people so you guys could add another tick on "Why America Should Keep Guns 101." I cant stop you, but, why? What place does such an argument have here?
Their are also the "if he was black, he would have shot!" dumbasses. It's not as one sided as you think.
Mediocre Gamer I think it's a shame too that when there is a shooting they parade kids around hollering gun control and that guns need to be taken away.
I HOPE AND ASK FOR FAVOR INTO THE LIVES OF EACH ONE OF THESE FAMILIES IT PAINS ME TO SEE ANY VISIT OF TRADEGRY MAY EACH OF THESE PEOPLE HEAL FROM THIS GOD BLESS YOU AND HAVE A BLESSED NIGHT
Tragic beyond words😓
Why does everyone look so calm at 1:35
caleb right? I was wondering that too???!!
Because they dont know what is going on..
Dat Boy James in a way it does. Idk anything anymore in this world
This isn't staged. Have you ever heard of "deer in headlights". It's a real thing. People don't react like they do on television or movies.
The real question is..... ARE VANS RACIST !?!?
themadrapper101 don't think that's a question anyone is asking what's except you.
If it was a "White" van, yes
Yes! Bcz it is a WHITE van. If the van was black, it would’ve been on welfare and would not have worked. Brown vans wouldn’t be anywhere near the city, they’d be along the borders smuggling illegals.
themadrapper101 100% a white van
He was making a joke
Prayer to all the people who got hurts🙏🏼🙏🏼
Sad...
I heard the attacker was even driving an automatic transmission with a high capacity gas tank. Our founders didn't know how advanced horses would get. Time to ban vans.
Key Strix
polo4744 -_-
The van is not the one blame here, it is the driver, he is the one who took the lives of all those people, the van had no choice in the matter. Don’t go accusing an inanimate object and banish it from being used by society just because of the foul actions of a bloody, murder crazed psychopath!
Greed23, You don't need a license and registration when you have a Craigslist loophole! Also I've seen dogs and children get a hold of steering wheels. Where are their licenses preventing them from hitting a gas pedal? Also, when did having insurance stop a man from ramming his van into a crowd? When did anyone ever say, "oh he killed all of those people, but thank God insurance is involved!"
Blossom Sensei, so what you're saying is that I should blame Ford! Chevy! All the car dealers that profit off the people being slaughtered in the streets. Of course they won't think of all the dead kids and stop selling their death machines. All they care about is money.
What if he used a pick-up truck? Do we have to ban all pick-up trucks?
As a Canadian I'll tell you this was not a terror attack.
Good vibes to the families of the victims
Omg May they rest in peace
so sad
You know DAMN well you're waiting for someone to go:
*Pieces
K3lli Kell no
a starving african child so sorry you had to see that
Van legislation now!
"wounded" is not the word for INJURED car incident victims
prayers for all the victims and their families that were harmed in this attack and also prayers for the family of the attacker. As they will b attached to this assailant and im sure they also grieve for those families that r suffering at this time. i am grateful for the officer that didnt shoot the driver even tho he wanted the “easy way out”. He will have to face his crimes in the public’s eye and will b tried in a court of law. His family doesn’t deserve to b victims of the media which happens so much in the USA. Prayers for the victims, their families, and the community that they may heal and find peace. God bless u all❤️🙏
Ban all assault vans.
Now people will start marching out for car control.
I wish people were that competent.
Litro same
No the gun grabbers only want our guns so they can control us and we won’t be able to fight back.
R. C.P tell that to the 10 people dead my guy
We don't want your guns, we just want your military weapons, you can still have a gun
People where reviving people wow thats touching
I live not to far from Toronto and this really scares me , but what scares me even more is that I used to live literally right across te street from where the attack took place (I lived in an appartement with my dad). And we would walk around the area too so if I still lived there , there would be a chance that I could have been hurt
I am calling for the universal backround checks to rent a van
at the pawnshops they do backround checks and clear they every time
something is wrong when one person has 300 guns and buys more guns every week
Who the hell has 300 guns?
Litro lol
Litro gun collector or leader of a militia group.
Poppa whilli This is such a bitch comment.
The title says "9 dead, 12 wounded"
The video says "10 dead, 16 wounded"
Uh
I guess they were receiving updates, as they were reporting.
Lots of disrespect in the comments. People died for no reason in this event and people have to make jokes about it right away. Wouldn't be funny if that was someone you cared about that died or got injured today.
MetaDecker You are among a few who care, never change that.
It's all fake
MetaDecker roadkill does have a funny name
I mean there is a song about someone's grandpa getting run over by Santa's reindeer s
Golden1_1Dragon Yep, it's a funny song, but it's also fictional. THIS actually happened. Some nut job killed people who had nothing to do with his mental breakdown.
xldjvista ikr!
This is a sad act of terror. RIP 😟
And NOT one drop of blood on that van. Damn!!!!
Pretty sure if you got up close you could see some blood
Haleyjo the blood is on the ground not the fan . He was driving so fast they were on the van long enough to even get any blood on it
This ain't GTA bro
but but she _heard the people dropping_ ...
Right? When I hit a deer there was a huge dent
Apparently nobody had a gun to stop the van. 16 blocks?? That's really far.
It is horrible what people are doing to each other! Lets pray for victims and God give their relatives patience!!!
Anybody who has a driver license or registration... has blood on their hands.
Hey look they got rid of their guns and the bad guy still found a way to kill them
ban terrorists
Joshua Hansen we should ban vehicle
this took place in canada not American
9 is better than 50, think about it.
But both him and the officer were holding a gun during the stand-off.
This isnt gta v
You might be trying to make the best of this horrific situation but this wasn’t funny.
Your right it's 6
Nah, this is GTA VR
YaBoyCarter72 _ WASTED lmao
YaBoyCarter72 _ BRUH I WAS THINKING THE SAME THING
R.I.P.
My heart goes out to all the victims of these types of horrific attacks.
That being said, did they just try to mention 600 victims in 2 years as a pressing terrorism problem? More than 5,000 died on Texas roads in 2017 from alcohol related car crashes and that’s just Texas. There are plenty of other things back “home” we should be more concerned.
NEW IDEA. CAR CONTROL. WE NEED BACKGROUND CHECKS
these vans really need to be discussed . so many vans killing innocent people where is the outrage? when will this end? people dont even need a psychiatric profile check, to own one. we need tougher control laws in place. on who is able to obtain these wepons.
WHY is there a debate needed to deem this terrorism?! Thats absolutely crazy!
Rest In Peace to all the people
Curb your van
Disgusting. My deepest condolences to everyone involved. But thank you for the courageous officer(s) that brought him down and didn't fall for his attempt at suicide by cop. THAT took balls. I'm so glad he didn't get the easy way out. 🇨🇦❤
lorenzo damag Absolutely, salute to the officers
Mannnn shit was never like this when we were kids😢I was born in 96 and it seems this world just gets darker and darker day by day....love everyone around you and treat each other how you would want to be treated. You never know if it could be your last day. Love you all.
The only thing that can stop a bad guy with a rogue van on a sidewalk is a good guy with a rogue van on a sidewalk! Join the NVA! The National Van Association to protect your freedom, life, and liberty!
Senseless.
We have to ban vans right now
Weedy Gonzalez Can't do that a lot of people use vans daily for work purposes.
Javier Sánchez go back to the mlb channel
Javier Sánchez joke went right over your head
Weedy Gonzalez Boston is off tonight lol 😎
OmegaWolf2025 I hope it's a joke other people on here is saying it to.
If an action strikes terror in the heart of people, then it is a terrorist act. Simple.
why did they take this waste of a human alive ,,,, make an example of these so-called people so they understand when you do something like this , it`s an INSTANT death sentence.
yeah...I'll keep my guns, thank you very much.
Same....guns...plural.
jabman549 ....to shoot the van to death? Shoot cancer? Shoot heart disease? Shoot bad air quality/smog? Shoot 16 year old teens texting while passing a stop sign and rear ending you?
We need to fund research and rehab for mental illness! Not 20 billion on a wall that will do nothing. Not billions more on murdering poor people in the middle East.
Fund education and health! Fix the problem not just shooting a band-aid on it. Guns are not the problem nor the solution.
Tackle the source. Fear, bad health and lack of education are the problems. Everything bad in the world leads to one of those 3 things.
FYI, extreme religion (Christian, Islam, etc.) fits in the lack of education category.
Honestly mate, just really think about it. Guns are cool but they will not solve anything. You shoot a dumb kid to death trying to break in your house to steal something petty. NOTHING WAS SOLVED. Why is the kid doing this? What happened in his life to end up making a decision to break into a home? Really dig into the reasoning behind all that situation and prove me wrong that a gun can solve that root cause.
dickcheese663 You do know this was in Canada right? Wtf are you talking about.
MAGA!
My sister died because of this man. Rest In Peace. Amen
MSTFD 《MysticFistFury》 God bless you and your family. Peace be with you.
Sorry for your loss. Praying that it gets better for you and your family.
Sorry for your loss :(
Sorry for your lost
Praying for you and family
Awful. Such an amazing and beautiful city. Never would have ever thought something like that would happen there
I have been down Yonge Street before and let me tell you, it’s a BUSY street! Especially in the spring and summer time when they have concerts and stuff like that at Bloor-Yonge Square.
Edit: Although I am American and don’t live there so I don’t know how crowded it was that day.
so sad why would you kill innocent people😭😭
because there is evil in the world.
Good to see Canada's gun laws are keeping their citizens safe in the streets.
virgilio moncada Well it's good to see that they have less shootings? No one needs your snarky comments right now.
Q'squad compare the number of schools and students in the US to Canada
Q'squad+ my my, your one triggered Boi. And the fact that Canada has less mass shootings isn't because they have illegalized guns. That won't do shit, as seen by the UA-cam H.Q. shooting. It's because their media doesn't constantly glorify atrocities. Glorifying these acts helps phsycotic little shits realize "if i want attention, I'll just shoot up a school!" they'll get their face on international headlines, all the attention they could want.
Q'squad also most shooting statistics include any instance a weapon is discharged, including in self defense.
And no one needs asshole Canadians comments about US laws and politics, but we get them anytime a gun is shot in the USA.
Time for stricter van laws.
This is terrible. Hope the driver gets a brutal punishment.
Prayers and Blessings to All killed,hurt, when's the madness going stop!!!!
What madness? In case you haven't realized, massacres aren't a sudden thing, they've been happening since the beginning of the human race.
