Huh. Shocked, absolutely shocked. How long before he's freed again.
Not even a robbery, just stabbing random people for the fun of it. Open season downtown and along the Crime Train.

Shane Walsh had just finished an appointment in downtown Calgary early Monday afternoon when he says a man, whom he didn't know, ran at him from behind and stabbed him several times.
"I felt a stab in my back and then there was some quite quick, hard thrusts in my abdomen, my shoulder, my arm," Walsh told CTV News on Tuesday.
Calgary Police allege a man stabbed at least two more people and assaulted another in a spree that spanned several city blocks before he was arrested in the East Village around 1:10 p.m.
Walsh says the man who stabbed him didn't try to rob him or take any of his belongings. He says the man only said to him, "I've disappeared" before Walsh ran away.
Chad Elliott Carrick, 29, is the man charged in the series of stabbings and assaults. He's facing four counts of assault with a weapon, two counts of assault, one count of causing mischief under $5,000 and one count of failing to comply with a release order.
"That individual was out on bail. That individual was out for another serious crime at the time that that happened with conditions not to possess knives and that's what he used to stab Calgarians," CPS Chief Const. Mark Neufeld told journalists Tuesday.
"It's like, in the movies, people die when they get stabbed, so one of the things I was thinking is 'how long do I have to live?
