That little curly cue thing with the dot at the bottom is a question mark and it denotes a question. It would appear that school was not kind to you. In any event, clearly you should have been able to understand it was a question even had I not used the question mark. I understand how the question makes you uncomfortable and I never really expected an answer from you. Acknowledging your hypocrisy is not something you are quite yet prepared to do.
you clearly know nothing about the existing Parole Board appointment process... you simply saw the word "appointed" and thought you'd drop your nonsense. As for those appointments, they're made by the related Public Safety minister based on the defined criteria met... the vast majority of National appointments I've just reviewed have durations in the 3-5 year range... the vast majority of appointments. And yes, as I said, the parole boards have access to all manner of specializations to help them make their assessments... whether that's specialists within the medical field, police, corrections... or the law itself... you know lawyers! But hey, you've clearly missed your calling if you're complaining about lawyers.
"Defined criteria met" yeah right. Sadly you believe anything government and political science teachers squirt out onto you. Definitely the type who should be living next door to a short term recently released murderer.
hey buddy... did you miss the part where, for the last almost 10 years, those appointments have been maid by the Harper Conservative Minister of Safety... you know, a cabinet minister from your favoured Harper Conservative party. Is there a problem here? Cause if so, how are you so "down with the new proposal" that puts that "Throw Away the Key" decision making directly into the hands of the same Minister? You really need to think these things through and get your story straight, hey! And yes, there are defined criteria that potential parole board members are evaluated against... care to offer your insight into how that criteria was arrived at... where it comes from? :mrgreen:
There's a lot of that going around. I know there's a lot of people that think they'll be safer because of this legislation just because the government tells them they will be
Yep, as soon as you tell us how much you would love to live next to the recently (and early) released murderer, how about the one who cut the head off on the bus. Real good at deflection you are, too bad it is so obvious.
such a simpleton you are! You may as well be the boards spelling nazi... you're clearly not up to the moderator's role! :mrgreen:
what deflection? You're all over the map; you're so flustered over having your contradictions highlighted, you can't keep your posts together! Clearly, Harper is playing more of his 'politics of fear' game just for guys like you... and you're luvin it!
Extended stay inmates don't need parole officers, halfway houses, jobs training, addiction or sex counselling or other funded post incarceration costs.
Letting them out isn't cheap.

This has nothing to do with Harper and you know it. Now, about deflection, a word you learned to play with. Would you finally answer my question?
Tory bill has nothing to do with Tories confirmed.
In all fairness, they probably meant John Tory.

It's cheaper then leaving them in but hey, let's not allow facts to cloud your judgementr
If they are not a risk to re-offend, then I have no problem living beside them. Straw man arguments seldom work you know. I don't think anybody is promoting allowing dangerous people to walk free. The disagreement is in the definition of dangerous. I've seen little evidence that the risk from those who have been released into society is significant enough that the taxpayers should instead incarcerate them for their entire life. Your irrational fears do not constitute evidence btw.
