What a stupid question. This could have happened anywhere - linking it to Greyhound is inane.

The issue is not the safety of a particular common carrier, but about mental illness and our society as a whole. Or, for that matter, about that horribly unstable and dangerous country Canada, where this incident occurred.

If you want to make broad and meaningless statements about isolated incidents, how about the woman traveling on Amtrak, with an elderly parent who died en route. The woman didn't say anything until the train reached its destination, because she didn't want to pay for a hearse. "Would you take _Amtrak_ anytime soon?".

Or the dead woman found this week in an airline lav. "Would you take _Delta_ anytime soon?".

Please, let's all support Gadling's campaign to dumb America down even more....
