... this story further proves that the crown prosecutors union in british columbia is allowing criminals to get away with murder ...

... nanaimo crown counsel is refusing to prosecute a murder charge against a gangster who gunned down someone in a brazen broad daylight gun battle in nanaimo. story at this link HERE ...

... according to this nanaimo crown attorney, gangster's may engage in bloody gun battles that endanger innocent people if they are acting in self-defense. total bullcrap. that's not the law in canada at all. this prosecutor's incompetence is even more reprehensible in light of the horrifying shootings in ontario and colorado that recently happened ...

... the prosecutor should be fired immediately ...

Self-defense is a right.

May he get several years for carrying the gun...........but no jury with a single sane person aboard would convict a man of murder if he killed someone that opened fire on him.........

So you think Canadians shouldn't be allowed to defend themselves?

Updated: May 01, 2012 7:30 AM The man who was shot while trying to rob Dieverts Jewelers in Port Alberni in 2008 is reported to have died, News 1130 is reporting.
Quoting Corrections Canada, News 1130 reported that James Gumbleton, 48, died in a prison treatment centre after a lengthy illness. He was still in custody.
In October 2008, Gumbleton was one of two masked men who entered Dievert's Jewelers on Johnston Road and tried to rob the store owner's wife at gunpoint. The store owner shot Gumbleton multiple times.
Gumbleton, who was paralyzed from the waist down as a result of the shooting, pleaded guilty to robbery with a firearm in Port Alberni Provincial Court in 2010 and was sentenced to four years in prison.

I mean ... Now you're dissing gangsters.
... i'm not dissing gangsters at all. i don't give a damn about them -- i'm criticizing the crown prosecutors in nanaimo, bc who are refusing to take a stance against lethal gun crime ...

... the crown should be denouncing gun crime, not finding excuses to permit it ...

... plus, it hasn't been proven that the shooter who killed the other guy was actually defending himself from death ...

... if the accused wants to use self-defense as a defense in his murder trial that's fine, let the jury decide if lethal force was warranted ...

... who is defending the rights of the dead guy in this matter? certainly not the crown. the crown is on side with the killer ...

Refusing?

They're following the law.
... the crown should be denouncing gun crime, not finding excuses to permit it ...
Blame the feds, it's called the Criminal Code of Canada for a reason.

... plus, it hasn't been proven that the shooter who killed the other guy was actually defending himself from death ...
Apparently it was. lol.

... if the accused wants to use self-defense as a defense in his murder trial that's fine, let the jury decide if lethal force was warranted ...
Why waste the money when the evidence at hand dictates otherwise?

... who is defending the rights of the dead guy in this matter? certainly not the crown. the crown is on side with the killer ...
No, the Crown is on the side of the Law.

The law states that you have the right to defend yourself with like force. if someone is using lethal force against you, then lethal force is warranted, and you have not committed a crime. That makes a trial an unjust, unfair proceding.

Is there a particular reason you want to subject Canadian citizens to unjust trials?

The dead guy gave up his rights when he showed up and started shooting at someone.
