I wouldn't rent any part of my home to anyone. And even if I were in that position and refused him that doesn't mean he shouldn't be released. That's what halfway houses are for. Or family.

Ok, how about next door then? The parole system has an obligation to protect Canadians and it failed that obligation in this case.
And we aren't speculating as to it being at least 10 violent crimes, that information has been released. There are more than 10 violent crimes listed in the summary of his parole records posted by global news. In fact, his last set of convictions included 5 violent crimes, and that doesn't include a number of stabbing/beating/domestic violence convictions before that.
And obviously it wasn't justified since he killed 11 people. The only question is whether that's also true without hindsight. And his huge criminal record with repetitive violent crime says hindsight wasn't necessary. Do you really not believe 50 chances is enough?
