Yikes. Worse yet, a bus full of people WATCHED it happen.

This is Canada? Sounds more like Iran.

Great googly moogly, that is sickening.

However, the Nats have had bus-related deaths lately as well:

Wow, just horrible. I wonder what triggered this psycho.

p.s. I don't get the Iran reference.

"While we were watching the door, he calmly walks up to the front with the head in his hand and the knife and just calmly stares at us and drops the head right in front of us," said Caton.

Fellow passenger Cody Olmstead told Brandon radio station CKLQ that the man "dropped the head and went back and started cutting the body back up."

WTF!!!

This is why you have the death penalty. Sickos like this deserve that fate.

I used to ride the bus alot back in my college days going back and forth to home and school on breaks and there are definitely some creepy folks that ride buses. But this is just straight out of a B-movie horror flick. Totally beyond imagination.

That is just insane! The poor kid was asleep listening to his iPod and he get's his head cut off!? Just kill the murder now no trial needed. This is one of the most shocking stories I've ever read.

Ok 30 people fled the bus and no one even tried to stop the guy. I bet now they will want to ban smoking because he smoked a cig before the attack. I still cannot believe no one jumped in.

I thought the same thing at first. But the guy did have a big butcher knife which I'm sure persuaded a few of the passengers to stand back. This story really is straight out of a horror movie.

If the knife was big enough to cut a dude's head off, the guy was probably as good as dead after the first stab anyway.

I'd intervene in a lot of situations, but when a guy has a knife that huge it's hard to see how the odds would be in favor of me succeeding.

Some people are just selfish. Selfish isn't even the right word, really. It's too harsh, it's really just about survival. It's easy to think you'll be a hero in situations like that, but the actual act is much more difficult.

Also, in situations like that people often do think about others, but it's not necessarily the person in danger. Imagine it was you on the bus and you thought of intervening. I would be willing to bet that one of your first thoughts would be about someone else, but it wouldn't be the boy getting cut up. Instead you would probably be thinking "What happens to my son if I don't survive this."
