I think there may be a problem with having full representation in a jury................lots of hung juries!
Political commentary on court verdicts hurts views of justice system: lawyers

'injuns', Cliffy........how very un-PC of you.
This is not about hating anyone and your feeble attempts to make so are simply pathetic.
Have you even bothered to look into the backgrounds of the FNs involved. The criminal history is rampant. Boshie himself bragged on FB about stealing and giving the finger to the RCMP. The family has been involved in numerous court cases - still is as a matter of fact.
Now that said, the young man did not deserve to die. However, he is responsible for the decisions he made leading up to his death. He made the decision to indulge in a drinking binge. He made the decision to take a loaded rifle with him. He made the decision to invade not one but two rural farms.
The FNs who are constantly stating 'he was a good kid' obviously didn't bother to monitor his FB page - shame that as they are now being caught up in their own lies about his being such an upstanding young man.
It seems Trudeau and all his virtue may have quite possibly cost the Boushie family an appeal.
Trudeau’s comments on Boushie case may have ‘tainted’ a potential appeal process: lawyer
“I would have serious concerns moving forward, then. There will be a suggestion by the defense that the jury pool is now tainted and fair trial cannot proceed.”
“There is certainly a need for Justice Minister and the Prime Minister to recognize ongoing issues that Indigenous people face relating to the justice system,” Robichaud said.
“But to comment in any way directly or indirectly on a particular verdict has an effect that does a disservice to that objective. Many people have interpreted his comments about this verdict, which is totally inappropriate and would have a negative impact going forward.”
He added that Trudeau’s comment could have done “more harm than good” for Indigenous people.
Sweet.
Looks like Stanley already has a ready-made defense for any appeal that comes down the line.
Thanks tater tot!
Jury pool across the country would now be tainted.
Good.
Only good thing that Selfie has done during his entire time as PM.
It's funny, I've heard hours of discussion on the radio about the killing, but no one has discussed in ANY detail what the little buggers were up to before this shit happened. Apparently that's immaterial!
Why is it so many people are making a racial issue out of this? Anyone with half a brain can see it's a behaviour issue! Colten didn't get killed because he was indigenous he got killed because he was stealing, drunk and appeared to be a threat.
The system could not be any more fair.
If the tables were turned and Indian boy shot white farmer, indian boy would also get an all-white jury with a white judge.
See?
Fair and square.
this case has shown the world exactly where Canada is on race relations.
All those ignore listers out on social media are showing everyone what is really going on in this sick land.

That entire visit to the P.M.'s office stinks! There's thousands of cases where law abiding Indians, who had legitimate concerns never got the "red carpet" treatment. He's just a gutless wonder!
Actually, it works quite well for the lefties, because it automatically assumes:
All white people are automatically racist, and will ONLY deliver racist judgements.
All white juries are automatically racist, and will ONLY deliver racist verdicts.
Oh did I mention that all white people are racist, race is the first, last and only thing on their minds,
and spend the whole day muttering 'racist, racist, racist, gonna find me an injun to f(*k up cuz I'm racist.'
See ?
Works perfectly.
I was called for Jury duty only twice in my lifetime and both times after traveling the 80 miles, they had picked the twelve jurors and alternates and my name was still in the box they pulled the names from.
I don't know whether this is realistic or not but the only way can see an Indian on the jury for sure is to have less than 12 prospective white members in the jury pool!
From the link: “The thing that was the most shocking to me was the fact that they were so audible from where I was sitting (across the room) and there were police scattered throughout the room. No one stopped them.”
Cops understand they are powerless as gutless politicians fear fn confrontation(s) even more than their own pc shadow, feminist justyn leads the gutless parade.
Christie Blatchford: Caledonia natives still calling the shots in land dispute | National Post
It was from Thistlemoor where an OPP officer, two U.S. Border Patrol agents and one Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosive agent were first boxed in by trucks and surrounded by about 15 natives.

One of the lawmen ended up in hand-to-hand combat with a native man, while another native drove away in a police vehicle, nearly running over the OPP officer in the process, who was dragged to safety only in the nick of time. The police vehicle was returned about two hours later, stripped of its equipment and with the contents of a portable toilet having been dumped inside.
In the hands-off fashion of OPP policing back then, eight people were eventually arrested — in one case, more than a year later — and charged with a variety of offences. Only two did any significant jail time.
Back in the day, Thistlemoor residents felt so abandoned by the police that they set up their own “resident response plan” in case of attack or intimidation.
