Not everybody can afford a lawyer. I wont even tell you what happend when my dad died and certain police wanted to get the mitts on his extensive collecrion of guns that they wanted for themselves
I agree, no offense intended.
Your corrupt police story doesn't surprise me. When I served, corruption was approximately 10% of the department. Twenty five years later, today it's closer to 80% corruption. One of our local Cranbrook, BC Mounties was just caught and fired due to his idea of keeping a restricted handgun an older female senior had him pick up for destruction. Of course he originally lied about it, go figure, a dishonest cop!......
An acquaintance of mine who just retired from the RCMP stated the internal corruption in the RCMP could be as high as 90% now. And goes right up the chain of command. Remember, sh!t runs down-hill......
With the current tyrannical and corrupt Liberal Government, and the disgraceful RCMP who protect these criminals, what does one expect?.....
And no, I'm not going to get into a discussion with any key-board warriors, wanna-be cops, or even current law enforcement.
Not every cop is corrupt, there are few good ones left, but unfortunately not very many.
Eventually, it's going to be, the ole', "I was only following orders bull-sh1t"......
Over 25 years of law enforcement experience has taught me that the police are not your friend. It's a crying shame, as a young boy in Alberta during the 1960's, I loved the police, being a cop is all I ever wanted. The police back then were real men, with integrity, honor, and kindness, as well as common sense.
Not thugs, bullies, weirdos, or creeps protecting criminals......
We certainly need a huge correction in Canada, don't we?
