It's good that we can find a light side to this but on the heavy side, we need a good organizer to start the ball rolling in regards to action that will be felt in Ottawa in the range of 10 on the Richter scale. If a non English speaking immigrant isn't safe here how safe are the rest of us? Not to mention all the tax money we are forking over to support this B.S.

JLM - None of us are "safe". Your rights are abused daily but the problem is the weak who are afraid of the boogeyman created by the media and our so called goverment. As long as there is fear those who have the ability will abuse that fear.

Under these "new terrorism laws" that took rights away from all of us how many terrorists have been eliminated without the police supplying the materials needed to create a terrorist?

The laws we already had were sufficient enough to handle these allegeded terrorists.

Oh yeah, we have laws until they are coming out the ying yang- I say let's do away with about 75% of our laws and ENFORCE the other 25% & in extreme cases punish to the fullest extent.

Most of our crime comes from poverty and the sons and daughters of wimps who don't have the balls to be men and dads.

You know what is really really scary? Is that we have LOTS of people who don't speak english LIVING here, and we have LOTS of people who's english is really bad. Those officers live here, they know that. But they wereunwilling to give some time to a disgruntled man who earlier had been calmed down by a civilian. Those officers should be fully trained in dealing with people who don't speak english or speak very little.



We have the olympics coming in less then a year...This is worrisome.

So in other words, you condone this! So Tyr is a fine upstanding poster and I'm to watch out for whiplash. I can and have admitted that these members involved in this death are probably lying. We are talking about 4 members of the RCMP here. This "little joke" of his is not about four members. It's about the RCMP period. He has the right to condemn that which has been my families lifestyle for the past 40 years but it's okay for him right? He has been referred to as a troll both on here and on canada.com but you go ahead and congratulate him.

There are no other words so why interpret? On one day in your posts it's "until today I wouldn't have believed" and the next day you're tarring everyone who doesn't believe a Smokey-The-Bear hat means saint. I'm saying stand back and look at the big picture.

I support my son's decision to leave the "Church" and its you-lie-and-I'll-swear-to-it mentality. Is it your husband who's a cop? Are you content to have these ill disciplined morons painting a target on his back?

Think about it.....

Poor IP. If the kitchen is too hot, .... well you know the rest.

Once again you lose your cool and hence lose the argument

He has been referred to as a troll both on here and on canada.com

Never by those whose opinions were constructive, but those that were "kicked out or banned".... I'm guilty

so glad you follow me around like a "troll"

Not sure on this but with such a variety of posters could be a lawyer in the bunch –As the Crown stated previously no charges were to be laid – they also stated they could revisit that decision –
In the US a civil suit could be initiated for Unlawful Death or words to that effect. Is that possible in Canada?

I believe so, but extremely rare and possibly precluded by a criminal case. I.E. If it's a criminal prosecution with an outcome, a civil suit can't be brought

Could be wrong though

We have "inquiries" that use taxpayer money to pay restitution to the victims or their families. I'd prefer to see those at fault foot the bill and pay dearly.

Hey good day to all, it is law in Canada when a person is drunk and kills another person with a car, it automatically becomes a criminal offence. Why does the force allow a person with a criminal record be a peace broker (a cop), this guy should be thrown out of the force immediately, if the force wants to maintain integrity with the public. And to be fair to the public all 4 should be thrown out because they have been caught red handed deliberately lying in an EFFORT to cover up their misconduct.

If staplers are scary just think of the mayhem they could cause with a nail gun.
hmmm, Airport Security would surely come under investigation for allowing a recent arrival into a secure area with one of those!
