Tragedy with a gun

Police Probe Mountie Killings As Canada Mourns
Its been over a century since four Mounties were killed in a single incident.
I am sad for them and their families and coworkers, of course, but also for the town. We visited some friends in Mayerthorpe a few years ago. -- they were so happy there, so proud of the town in which they had built their life and raised their children - showing off the town swimming pool, their store, their comfortable house. Now, the whole town has this tragedy to deal with. But they are strong, and they will heal.
