In article <330F3E4F.909@internorth.com>, "Ian G. Mathers" <imathers@internorth.com> says: > >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. as an aside, the bafoon who broke into the PMs place was initially charged with attempted murder, while, around the same time, a thief who stabbed an edmonton woman to death in her home was charged with manslaughter. now, is manslaughter not a less severe charge than attempted murder? and what did the bafoon actually do, open a door inside and scare the PMs wife? > >What the HELL is wrong here? politicians looking out for number 1 rather than the people of canada. regards, bill.
