We've been following this case for a while now, but Remy's trial has begun in Montreal this week. The National Post has an article, albeit somewhat slanted here.
We wish Mr. Couture the best in this trial, and await the outcome.
The idea that art literature music etc causes people to commit crime is a false one. The Metal and gangster rap of today makes the rebellious music, movies art etc 1960's and 70's look like elevator music. Crime rates were much higher than compared to now. It may be possible to say that if a person is already prone to violence and paranoia delusions that entertainment such as angry radio talk show hosts, extreme fighting, and the news just reinforces what a person is already thinking. Despite all this we are living in one of the most peaceful and safest times in the history of humans.
