Nothing mostly. Unless you are a law abiding taxpayer protecting your property. Then look out. If the government doesn't take lock you up for decades they will endure you spend enough on lawyers to bankrupt yourself and destroy your life.Criminals just face a revolving door joke of a justice system.


TRUE DAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Govt is probably paying for that thug to sue farmer Ed Maurice!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!




Here is an article illustrating how badly messed up our legal system has become as a result of the influences of LIE-beral hug a thug judges!! With some comments of my own in brackets):

By Tyler Dawson, National Post

Published: Sept 23, 2019

EDMONTON — Edouard Maurice, the Alberta father who was hauled before a judge for firing warning shots at bandits on his property, is now being sued by the man who, that night on his land outside of Okotoks, was hit by a ricocheting bullet and hospitalized.

(Maurice was home with his small children when he discovered that several people were ransacking his vehicles looking for stuff to steal!! LIE-beral spending priorities coupled with the rural location of the farm - ENSURED that any police response would take several hours to arrive - hence the choice to fire warning shots at the thieves- in defence of HIS PROPERTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

In court documents filed in Calgary on Sept. 6, Ryan Watson says injuries sustained to his right forearm in February 2018 caused “severe damages and disability” and is suing for $100,000.

(This is of course ABSURD!! Watson has only himself to blame for being injured! If he was not a sneak thief he would not have had any injuries!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Watson was one of two people who had “entered (Maurice’s) farmland,” as the lawsuit put it.

“As … Watson was fleeing, without warning, (Maurice) attempted to scare (Watson) by shooting a 22-calibre rifle in his direction, but negligently hit the plaintiff in the right forearm,” the statement of claim says.

(And was Watson “fleeing” BEFORE the shooting began?? Was he fleeing to avoid being identified as a THIEF?? Or did he only begin fleeing after it became obvious the home owner was prepared to defend his property?? In either case- it is Watson that is the architect of his own troubles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

The civil suit was served to Edouard Maurice earlier this month. Edouard, reached Monday morning, said he was “shocked” when he got it.

(And maybe Watson should shut up and be grateful he got FREE HEALTH CARE that WE paid for - to tend to his wound????????????????????)

“It’s going to be hard to go into another court case,” said his wife, Jessica. “Now it’s like being victimized a third time.”

The Maurice case caused outrage across Alberta.

(The issue of drunken and drug addicted thieves prowling in search of stuff to steal is becoming a SERIOUS ISSUE across all of Canada!! In the latest news - an Oshawa home owner became aware that intruders had entered his back yard- AND were stealing the marijuana plants he was legally growing and when the thieves were challenged- they STABBED the owner multiple times and fled with the handful of plants!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

That night, Maurice, who was at home alone with his daughter, was alerted by his barking dogs to people on his property. He told the Post in an exclusive interview last year that he saw people rifling through his vehicles and retrieved his gun — court documents identified it as a .22-calibre rifle. Edouard Maurice told the Post he opened his door, shouted for the two people to leave, then fired two warning shots to scare them off.

Edouard Maurice then called police; he says they arrived some hours later -a timeline the RCMP has refused to comment on - with their guns drawn, saying there were reports that someone had sustained a gunshot wound. Edouard Maurice was arrested and charged with careless use of a firearm, pointing a firearm and aggravated assault.

(Uh huh- cops are under LIE-beral ORDERS not to comment on service cuts or bail bullsh+t related to LIE-beral catch and release legal garbage!!!!!!!)

(As for Maurice being arrested - it is to be EXPECTED that any situation that sees a gun fired at another person SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED!! Its just too bad that LIE-berals are SO HOSTILE to Cdns protecting themselves while LIE-beral hug a thug judges play STUPID GAMES with public safety!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Jessica and Edouard Maurice at their home near Okotoks, Alberta. Behind them are banners with names of hundreds of supporters.

That a man defending his home and child against robbers would be the one police led away in cuffs rubbed already raw nerves in rural Alberta, where people are on edge over what has felt like out-of-control crime. Doug Schweitzer, the United Conservative minister of justice, is on a tour of the province getting feedback from Albertans on rural crime.

(AS I have stated - an investigation whenever guns are fired is logical - but LIE-berals are WILDLY in the wrong to be defending thieving imbeciles!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

While the charges were withdrawn against Maurice, in June 2018, the damage was done.

What he told the Post in an exclusive interview last year was a decision made in a “split second of fear” upended their lives, and made the Maurices symbols for rural residents across the Prairies; at court appearances, frustrated residents rallied around Maurice as symbols of all that was wrong with the justice system.

In the statement of claim, Watson, who faced several charges related to that night, says he required surgery to put a metal plate in his arm and that he now suffers post-traumatic stress disorder and other emotional and physical discomfort.

(Ah- Watson faced “SEVERAL CHARGES” from that night as he probably SHOULD - but WHAT WERE THOE CHARGES?? Was he carrying a concealed weapon perhaps?? The drunken clods who were with Colton Boushie the day he was shot- FAILED to fully hide the FULLY LOADED semi automatic sawed off .22 calibre rifle they had in the car with them - yet our LIE-beral overlords think the jury was biased against Boushie !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Watson was sentenced to 45 days in jail in February 2019, but walked free from the court house because of time served.

(And so - Watson got his LIE-beral “get out of jail free” card - because LIE-berals DO NOT wish to waste their gravy by jailing thugs!! SO LIE-berals offer THREE TIMES CREDIT for each day served while waiting in jail for a trial!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

(It is a poorly hidden secret that LIE-berals routinely RELEASE accused criminals WITHOUT A TRIAL as our courts are overloaded - and with the added bonus of LIE-berals refusing to spend money to EXPEDITE trials and punish the guilty!!!)

Edouard Maurice condemns Liberal government's three-page report on rural crime
'A split-second of fear': How Edouard Maurice became a symbol of the fight over rural crime and self-defence

(Yes- in their frantic efforts to BUY VOTES - our shameless LIE-berals are victimizing ordinary Cdns like Maurice!! And should we assume that Watson is getting LEGAL AID for his lawsuit?? Or has he found a smart mouthed shyster lawyer who will help him in exchange for a BIG SHARE of any cash they can beat out of Maurice????????????????????????)

(Maurice is CLEARLY a victim THREE TIMES OVER!! First because our LIE-berals will not protect him from thieves!! Second because he was forced to defend his own property and was then arrested for it!! Thirdly because he is now the victim of a disgraceful lawsuit by the very thug he was protecting his property from!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

(IN other news- a former lawyer chose to run for public office in New Brunswick and stirred the IRE of the Law Society by speaking HARSHLY of the LIE-beral hug a thug slaps on the wrist given to hard core criminals - and the aspiring politician was PUNISHED by the Law Society for bringing lawyers into “disrepute”!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

(IF the Law Society can PUNISH a lawyer for griping about lenient sentences - one wonders what they will have to say about a shameless ambulance chaser who would represent sneak thief Watson?????????????????????????)

(Oh right- the Law Society has been FULLY INFILTRATED BY LIE-berals!!!!!!!

So ambulance chasing that benefits THUGS IS OKAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

Wait. Here's what I should have said.

So you would prefer that both of these weapons be readily available to violent offenders?


I would prefer that both these weapons be treated and classified in the same fashion, and be readily available to PAL holders...........who, by definition, are NOT "violent offenders".


The people who are going to make a plethora of semi-auto rifles available on the black market are the idiots (like yourself) that want them prohibited and seized. You learned nothing from the long gun registry, because you are morons.


The LGR got, at best, 70% of firearms registered, **at best**. The rest were driven underground as illegal guns.........


How many of the non-restricted firearms they are about to seize (Mini 14s, SKS, M305, VZ58) do you think will actually be turned in?


The rest go to the black market. Eventually.


The entire plan is idiotic, ineffective, and counter-productive.

What?

Violent offenders should be prevented from buying these weapons?


Yes.


Like they are right now, because you have to have a PAL, and violent offenders do not have a PAL.


Really, try to focus.

OK, Hoid and Curious, and any other anti-gunner out there, tell me the difference between these two rifles:

FN FAL;
Cartridge: 7.62 x 51 NATO (.308Winchester)
Mode of Operation: semi automatic only
Feed devices: 5 round magazines (10 or 20 round available if smuggled, but are illegal)

Remington 742
Cartridge: 7.62 x 51 NATO (.308Winchester)
Mode of Operation: semi automatic only
Feed devices: 5 round magazines (10 or 20 round available if smuggled, but are illegal)
I have owned both types. One is prohibited (grandfathered). is registered under an OiC, and is considered so dangerous it can not be taken out of my house, the highest level of control for any firearms possessed in Canada..
The other is non-restricted........not registered, is at the lowest level of control that exists in Canada. (PAL required, that's it!)
If this doesn't illustrate the complete stupidity of those running our gun control system, I don't know what will.


I love me a nice ol woodsmaster in 30.06.
:)
My father was a front line soldier - it was his recommendation back in the day when he was still around to share moose season with.

...and people like you should likely not own anything that might be dangerous to other people such as Popsicle sticks, marbles, string, or playing cards...or even car keys.

I can still strip an FN. I've never disassembled a shot gun, completely.

Northern Ontario,

When I was in the army cadets in high school we learned to field strip a bren gun and put it back together.....
The teacher who had been in ww 2 could do it blindfolded.
People nowadays would be surprised to learn that...
The school in those days had an indoor firing range and all the cadets had to learn how to shoot in the prone position with army rifles
chambered for .22 cal
That was after school hours or weekends....
The best shots seemed to be the farm boys that were familiar with rifles from a young age....

Yeah, one of the reasons Montgomery called Canadians the best soldiers in the world was "......they are given rifles when they are just out of the cradle"


Sigh. That was then........
