Kamloops B.C. - R.C.M.P. are going to lay charges of aggravated assault
on an 85 year old 5'-5" 125 lb. man after he stabbed a 32 year old 6'-6"
200 lb. man who was attempting to break into his house.

A police spokesperson said "He took the law into his own hands." and
went on to say that the older man should have quietly left the house
with his wife and called the police from a neighbours house.

Yeah, RIGHT.

Not only have we lost the use of many of our streets because of the
criminal element, but when they arrive kicking at the front door, we are
instructed by the legal system to RUN AWAY ? ?

It's not that long ago that the Prime Minister was prepared to use a
weapon (inuit stone carving) on an intruder with a penknife and everyone
was heaping praise on him for not backing down.

What the HELL is wrong here?
