    This 1000X over. Everyday CBC spewed anti-white racism and stories of white privilege in the Gerald Stanley shooting of an armed Native robber. No that its a white guy, its "gun violence" I ask honestly to any CBC employee on this forum: is it a business rule to never blame the criminal?

    In my emt my question was "what color is my red truck?" I registered the answer as "red"

    It was accepted without any issue...

Even if a person is completely innocent and is found not guilty he has in effect been "fined" a huge amount of money with no avenue for compensation. People can be ruined financially and lose everything when they have done nothing wrong.
    Access to justice is a problem in this country for anyone facing criminal charges, this guy isn't special in that regard. Handing him a few bucks won't help with anyone else who's stuck in that system.

    This whole thread makes for a good argument in favor of legal insurance. Had the guy forked a hundred buck to Capri he'd be covered for (I think) 250k$.

    No I dont give any benefit of the doubt to the thief. We are not talking about a simple tresspasser who is cutting through. In this case the guy was rummaging through buddys car.

    If you are desperate and in need, ring the door bell and ask for help. Not many here would suggest shooting uninvited callers through the front door no questions asked is reasonable.

    No, the shooter didnt know about priors, meth or much else, but contrary to your assumption that implies the homeowner was a trigger happy castle doctrine enthusiast, he did know that this guy wasnt just walking across his property.

    You clearly dont know how the presumption of innocence works. It isnt simply about not being able to say he did it until a judge agrees. It should also involve not even laying charges until there is enough evidence to believe that the actions were actually unlawful.

    Yes police use of force gets investigated thoroughly. No one here is seriously suggesting that shootings not be investigated. Just do the investigation first, lay charges second.

    The current MO in this country is to ASSUME that any use of force is unlawful until the accused can prove otherwise, ensuring that anyone who refuses to be a victim gets victimized twice.
    So, the shooter gets to have a full investigation although he admits to the shooting before he gets a fair trial, while the alleged thief doesn't even get the benefit of the doubt before getting shot.

    That's summary execution. Plain and simple.
