Ontario man charged with alleged assault on home intruder (aka "Doug Ford says ‘something is broken’ after Ontario man charged with assaulting armed home intruder") - "This is not the first time a homeowner has been charged while allegedly defending themselves or their property. In June, a 35-year-old Ontario man who fired a gun at five individuals attempting to steal his White Lamborghini was charged with discharging a firearm, possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose, careless storage of a firearm and unauthorized possession of a prohibited or restricted firearm. None of the apprehended suspects — three adults and one youth — were injured."

Ontario father of 3 shot dead in front of kids during home invasion - "The incident took place at a home in a new subdivision in the city’s Kleinburg area just before 1 a.m., according to York Regional Police, who identified the victim as Abdul Aleem Farooqi...  “These weak-kneed judges let these people out on bail, not once, not twice, not three times, four and five times, just to go repeat the crime,” Ford said. “There’s no consequences at all for these people.  “Watch, when they catch these guys, I almost guarantee you they’ve been out on bail for another heinous crime.”"
Luckily he didn't hurt any of them, or he might be in jail
Time to blame the provincial government for federal bail laws and other federal soft on crime policies

‘These scumbags shot him right in front of his kids’: Ford rails against justice system after man killed in Vaughan home invasion : r/ontario - "Doesn’t matter if you have balls if the jails won’t take the guy you want to send there because they are over capacity. It’s layers of issues. You can’t blame judges alone. "
"The jails don't turn people away who have been sentenced to imprisonment or detained after a bail hearing. They just double and triple bunk people to compensate for a lack of space, which results often in people receiving lesser sentences than they normally would if found guilty because of the unduly harsh conditions in pre-trial custody.  I'm a Crown attorney - I have never heard of a jail "not taking" someone. Overcrowding is certainly a major issue that Ford is doing nothing to rectify but what you are describing is not really the form it takes, in my experience. Where are you getting this from?"
Naturally, left wingers keep talking rubbish to pretend federal policy is not the issue, because they want to blame conservatives

Top cop wants public to 'comply' with thugs during home invasions | Toronto Sun - "Just “hide and comply” and maybe the armed intruders invading your house will not hurt you or your family.   That’s York Regional Police Chief Jim MacSween’s recommendation to the public following the gutless murder of 46-year-old dad, Abdul Aleem Farooqi... “In the unlikely event that you find yourself a victim of a home invasion, we are urging citizens not take matters into their own hands,” the chief said at a news conference Wednesday. “While we don’t want homeowners to feel powerless, we urge you to call 911 and do everything you can to keep yourself and loved ones safe until police arrive and be the best witness possible.”   But when will police arrive?... The chief seemed tone deaf while addressing a disgusted community, shaken that a wonderful father of four, respected businessman and much-loved member of  Vaughan’s Muslim community could be gunned down at 1 a.m. inside his own home by bandits looking for valuables. No matter how it’s spun, this was not this dad’s fault.  It’s all on the bad guys and a system that does not punish them. Suggesting that we bow to the criminal element reminds me of the time a cop suggested that people  leave keys at the front door for the carjackers... When the courts routinely let offenders out of custody and there aren’t enough cops to quickly respond to all the crimes, few want to listen to any more advice from the system telling them to lay down and let the criminals have their way with you, your car or home or your family... What he’s really saying is the gangsters are in charge and if you don’t upset them, do what they ask — if you are lucky — they will spare you from their violence."

Fentanyl, stolen Canadian cars funding terror groups: report - "This is Canadian comedian Fady Ghali in a widely circulated recent web video mocking a string of recent law enforcement statements discouraging Canadians from confronting home invaders. The 80-second video had Ghali welcoming a burglar with drinks before politely giving them a cursory tour of all the items they can steal. The most recent iteration of Canadian police urging homeowners to leave criminals alone came after a Vaughan, Ont., father of four was murdered in his home after confronting four home invaders. York Region Police Chief Jim MacSween urged anyone in a similar situation to “try locking yourself in a room away from the perpetrators, hiding, fleeing the home.”"

Solution to fighting crime is to get tough on criminals, not comply with them : r/canada - "It is much easier to deal with dead homeowners than gangs ."
WARMINGTON: Top cop wants public to 'comply' with thugs during home invasions : r/canada - "Criminals LOVE this messaging. Makes their job a lot less dangerous."
"Mark my words, we’ll have an audio clip soon of a criminal yelling at home owners to comply like the police said they should"
WARMINGTON: Top cop wants public to 'comply' with thugs during home invasions : r/canada - "Does he recommend the same in the cases of sexual assault ......"

LILLEY: Solution to fighting crime is to get tough on criminals - "Believe it or not, MacSween actually used the word comply when telling the public how to deal with a home invasion.  Let’s put this in context... Premier Doug Ford and others have defended the right to defend your own home, but police and prosecutors never like that idea, thus the man in Lindsay being charged and MacSween’s comments.  That we are even having these discussions shows how out of control crime is. Across the country, crime is up when you look at the trends over several years, but MacSween, like many Liberal politicians, want you to think crime is under control or even down. It’s not, and the stats from the York Regional Police Service prove that.  Between 2019 and 2024, carjackings increased by 523%, shoplifting by 296%, auto-thefts are up 133%, arson is up 112%, and assault by 59%.  Let’s put some hard numbers on this: In 2019 there were 13 carjackings and last year there were 81. In 2019 there were 1,409 instances of shoplifting and last year there were 5,578.  Sexual assaults are up dramatically as are weapons calls and the crime rate overall.  Violent crimes rose from 8,837 in 2019 to 13,882 in 2024, an increase of 57%. Property crimes increased 21% from 25,423 in 2019 to 30,886 in 2024, and total Criminal Code offences from went up by approximately 34%. York Region is a fast-growing area but to show that this is about more than that, the total crime rate per 100,000 rose from 3,297 in 2019 to 4,156 last year... the reason people are considering taking matters into their own hands is that our entire justice system is failing us with increasing crime, lighter sentences, and revolving door bail for repeat violent offenders."

Man charged in Canadian Tire parking lot stabbing previously convicted of manslaughter : r/canada - "Let's not forget that a lot of our news media is owned by Conservatives, often outside of Canada. They love to pump the fear."
"So are saying the conservative-owned news outlets are making up these stories of repeat offenders continuing to repeatedly commit offences while not being locked up? Because there are stories like this literally every day now."
"  All the political parties and media outlets do it.  The whole stupid "buy back" is the result of t fear mongering and capitalizing on target for political gain.  For months leading up to the election, trump was the greatest threat we have ever faced, to the point that people were concerned about invasion. The media ran stories non stop and what if scenarios, and Freeland even made a suggestion Canada aquire nuclear weapons to protect us from trump."
"I worked corrections for 11 years. I assure you, this isn't bull shit propaganda. This happens all the time."
"Didn't say it was bullshit. Do people not have reading comprehension skills anymore?  The constant reporting isn't to inform, it's to instill fear and gain voters."
"Given that I was informed everyday while I worked corrections, I think the public should be as well."
"We should stop reporting on homicides because people might react to it?"
Attacking the media is only fascism when they push the left wing agenda

Man charged in Canadian Tire parking lot stabbing previously convicted of manslaughter : r/canada - "Man, I was a correctional officer for years. Recently left because there were so many things I couldn't accept and also couldn't change. We had days where we released inmates that we knew would victimize more people and there was legally nothing we could do about it. Half of the news articles in my city regarding murders and violent crimes, I recognize the names of the accused because at one time they were in custody, and releasing them gave me that sinking feeling in my gut. You can never really forget the names of inmates who gave you the chills and could unprovoked just turn and spit on you or hit you and they would get zero consequence. I have asked that same question many times about why a max security federal inmate with multiple violent priors isn't getting a DO designation. It's very difficult because the threshold of proof required in court is apparently in space. Reform needs to happen on so many levels. The incentive for inmates to participate in programs and work on their reintegration is hardly there because the benefit is minimal (a somewhat earlier release maybe). Where is the incentive to have good behaviour in a max security prison if you can get released directly back into the community on your statutory release date regardless? I think it is insane that a maximum security inmate can be released straight back into the public. They should have to work their way down to medium and then minimum to get released. Prove you can have fewer restrictions and can work on yourself. But nope. Max security is a revolving door of releases and then parole revocations and new charges. I could write a whole article on woke policy changes that made jails more dangerous and the public less safe. It's maddening. I don't want our justice system to look anything like the state's mind you but ours is a mess too. It's just a different kind of mess."
"It's crazy that a violent offender can kill potentially two people and then get released to potentially kill a third. It's clear at that point the system cares more about offenders than victims."

Man charged in Canadian Tire parking lot stabbing previously convicted of manslaughter : r/canada - "Its the fad lately, it'll die down in a few weeks. Crime is significantly lower than it was ~15 years ago, that is a fact."
That’s true crime is significantly lower than 15-20 years ago, but it’s been on an upward trajectory for the past few years. I don’t think we should wait and do nothing until it matches previous all time highs but that’s just me 🤷‍♂️"
Left wing logic: if rights that have never existed before in human history get pushed back, that's fascism and evidence "minorities" will be put in concentration camps and genocide-d. But crime needs to be worse than its historic high to be an issue

Man who killed sister in Manitoba mass stabbing was ordered to stay away from her while out on bail - "The man police say killed his sister and attacked several others with a knife on Hollow Water First Nation in Manitoba was recently ordered to stay away from his sibling while he was out on bail, court records show.  Tyrone Simard, 26, was charged with assault with a weapon and mischief for alleged offences that happened June 8, according to court records. He also faced charges of sexual assault, sexual interference and invitation to sexual touching from alleged incidents in 2017.  The records say a Winnipeg court granted his release June 12 on both matters, with various conditions, including a curfew and an order not to use drugs or alcohol or to possess weapons.  He was also ordered not to contact four people — the victims of the alleged crimes — which included his 18-year-old sister, Marina Simard, who died in Thursday's attacks. Simard was asked whether he understood the conditions.  "Yes," he told the court... Mounties said Simard fled in a stolen vehicle and died in a highway crash with an RCMP cruiser. The officer, who had been on her way to the attack scene, was also in hospital and is expected to recover.  The Independent Investigation Unit of Manitoba — which investigates all serious matters involving police — said Friday that it's looking into Simard's death.  Messages of condolences and support have poured in for the First Nation, including from James Smith Cree Nation in Saskatchewan, where there was a mass stabbing exactly three years earlier. Eleven people were killed and 17 injured."
Time to let him out on bail again
Clearly, this is due to colonisation, and he needs a Gladue report written so he won't go to jail but can heal from white supremacy
The police officer needs to be investigated for murder. It is disgusting that cops think they are judge, jury and executioner

Couple forced to steal back their own car after police 'too stretched' to investigate - despite Airtag showing location - "Theives stole the vehicle from outside the home of Mia Forbes Pirie, 48, and Mark Simpson, 62, in Brook Green, west London, during the early hours of Wednesday morning.  But unbeknownst to the thieves, the Jaguar E-Pace was fitted with a 'ghost immobiliser' - a type of immobiliser which required certain buttons to be pressed on the car's control in order to activate the vehicle.  Not only that, but Airtags inside the vehicle pinged shortly after 3.20am, showing the couple the vehicle's exact location - just a few miles away in Chiswick.  Upon dialling 999 - and despite knowing the car's whereabouts, the couple were told by the Metropolitan Police that they couldn't confirm when they would be able to investigate."
Time to charge them with theft. Luckily the police were keeping people safe by arresting people for tweets

Will "high risk" sex offender be released again? (aka "MANDEL: Another poster boy for catch and release justice") - "Medhani Yohans is a poster boy for the scourge of catch and release justice... Within just 24 hours of Yohan’s release, he was charged with four counts of breach of probation, disobeying a court order and criminal harassment... Guelph Police had arrested him three times in one weekend for allegedly breaking into vehicles, trying to dine and dash and exposing himself. He’d be released on bail only to be rearrested hours later... Guelph Police said they don’t usually issue public warnings but their concern about Yohans warranted three. The first bulletin, accompanied by his photo, was issued in August 2024 warning women in particular that he’d been released from custody in Toronto after serving his sentence for the sexual assaults but hadn’t reported in as required.  Later that month, Yohans was arrested for two counts of not complying with release conditions.  In February 2025, Guelph Police issued another warning to the community that Yohans was about to be released March 1 after completing his sentence. He was rearrested March 8 for allegedly breaching his probation order by not reporting to authorities following his release. He was was freed on bail, of course, on March 9.  On March 10, the University of Guelph issued a safety bulletin warning students that Yohans had been found sleeping on a bench and had been kicked out by campus safety officers. Later that same day, Guelph Police charged him with allegedly breaching a no-contact order.  Last week, Yohans was released from custody after completing his latest sentence — and just a day later, he’s back in the slammer.  The revolving door of this criminal’s life is dizzying. Four arrests in the last year alone. Will he now be freed once more by our ever-optimistic justice system?"

How some Canadian cities are becoming more lawless than the U.S. - "Despite Canada’s reputation as a safer version of the U.S., newly compiled data is showing that crime has worsened to the point where, on some metrics, Canadian cities are becoming more lawless than the U.S.  Americans are still getting shot and murdered at higher rates than Canadians, but when it comes to theft, carjackings and break-ins, figures show that some Canadian cities are doing worse than their American counterparts. In fact, two Canadian jurisdictions — Kelowna, B.C., and Lethbridge, Alta. — now rank worse than any other urban area south of the border.  In 2022, Lethbridge recorded 5,521 property crimes per 100,000 people, an average of one crime each year for every 18 residents. The worst-ranked U.S. city for property crime, Pueblo, Colo., saw property crimes hit 4,911 per 100,000...  the average Torontonian is now more likely to be a victim of property crime than the average New Yorker...  for most of the 2004-2022 period, the average Canadian city did indeed post lower rates of property crime than the average American city. These averages then became tied in 2020 and 2021, with Canada pulling ahead in 2022. The year 2022 happens to be when Canada was seized by a number of unprecedented crime waves, including a wave of arsons against churches, and a massive spike in car thefts that would eventually cause Canada to be dubbed by the BBC as an “auto theft capital of the world.”
The US haters need to look for a new cope. Maybe it'll be a pivot to look at overall crime rates, or a myopic focus on violent crime only. Or maybe it'll be the usual "if the Fraser Institute says the earth is round, that means it's flat"

Unlimited L's on X - "🚨BREAKING: Colorado Sheriff admits he was forced to release a ‘very dangerous’ inmate from jail because of state law that requires criminals found incompetent to stand trial to be released  'He is a very dangerous person, and his actions, from what we can tell, were unprovoked.'  Weld County Sheriff Steve Reams warned the public about a potentially dangerous inmate released on Monday   'Quite honestly, without some legislative actions, I don't know how you address this concern.'  Debisa Ephraim, 21, was released after being found incompetent to stand trial in two of his cases  Ephraim had been facing charges including attempted second-degree murder, assault, engaging in a riot, menacing, and burglary  Officials described him as a “potential danger to the community.”"
Gary on X - "“You’re too insane and dangerous to even stand trial so we have to release you back on the street” is actual policy in many jurisdictions"

Chinese couple's assault in Sydney's Eastgardens sparks 27,000-strong petition for youth justice reform - "More than 27,000 people have signed a petition calling for tougher youth crime laws, after a Chinese couple was violently assaulted in Sydney's east last week.  The petition, which gained traction on Chinese social media platforms RedNote and WeChat, was launched after the woman and her husband were allegedly attacked by a group of teenagers outside their Eastgardens apartment complex... The petition — signed by mostly people from the Chinese Australian community — urges the NSW government to lower the minimum age of criminal responsibility to 10 for serious offences and to deny bail to repeat youth offenders.  "This was not an isolated incident. In the days before the assault, several other Asian individuals were reportedly harassed by the same or similar teens in nearby Green Square — including acts of spitting, mocking and intimidation," the petition reads."

Video: Jasmine Crockett says ‘crime doesn’t make you a criminal’; social media isn’t convinced - "Democratic Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett faced intense backlash after stating, "Just because someone has committed a crime, it doesn’t make them a criminal."... This is not the first time Crockett has triggered uproar over her views on law enforcement. Just last week, a clip of her on the Grounded podcast went viral after she claimed that “law enforcement isn’t to prevent crime. Law enforcement solves crime.”"

Montreal man who attacked Jewish father in park not criminally responsible - "A Quebec judge has declared that a man charged with attacking a Jewish father in a Montreal park last month is not criminally responsible. Sergio Yanes Preciado was charged with assault causing bodily harm after he attacked a 32-year-old man on Aug. 8 who was with his young children at a Montreal park"
The mentally ill are not responsible for their crimes, but involuntarily confining and treating them is still a violation of their human rights
Weird how the "far right" who commit "hate crimes" are invariably mentally healthy. This shows that being "far right" is good for your mental health

Thread by @lyndseyfifield on Thread Reader App – Thread Reader App - "When I was a few weeks postpartum with my second child, I bundled us both up and waddled into the Fairfax County Circuit Court to testify against a man who had accosted my then-toddler daughter and I in a public bathroom while I was heavily pregnant.  When I arrived I was brought into a room with his other victims and found out he had assaulted a woman in the same bathroom. I suddenly felt I had been lucky.  The arresting officer who had also interviewed me weeks prior was clearly eager to do everything right to keep this guy off the street—he found additional witnesses, pulled surveillance footage, followed every step to the letter.  It was physically painful and difficult for me to even be there—trying to discreetly feed and soothe my two week-old for 6 hours on hard benches when we should both be home in bed. It was also terrifying discreetly breastfeeding in the same room as this monster. When I finally took the stand, the attorney for the Commonwealth asked me if the man who was in the bathroom that day was in the room.  I paused, confused—because I knew what was going to happen next.  The courtroom had been packed all day but as case after case was handled, ours was the last one—now it was just the judge, court reporter, bailiff, the defendant, his lawyer, the Commonwealth attorney, and I.  The arresting officer wasn't in the room. The other victim and her husband had been given a new court date and sent home.  I adjusted my baby against my chest and looked at her as she repeated the question: Do you see the man you reported to police in this room today? Why was she doing this? What was she doing?  I was sweating in my oversized cashmere nursing sweater and I felt prickles down my back. Everyone was staring at me. I'm not a lawyer. She asked me a question... and she was “on my side” so I should answer it, right?  I adjusted my baby again to give myself a free hand—and I pointed to him.  And just as I expected, his lawyer immediately pointed out there was nobody else present in the courtroom who it could be and therefore we had violated his constitutional right to due process. The judge agreed. Hell, *I* agreed—but then I asked WHY hadn't the Commonwealth given me a photo array to choose from? Why did she ASK that?  Too late. It didn't matter that he was on surveillance footage entering the bathroom before us and pushing past us as we fled.  He was set free.  As I walked out of the court room the arresting officer spotted me from down the hall and ran over to me “Is it back in this courtroom? Is it starting?” No, I told him, it's already over. He had been sent to another courtroom “by mistake.” He didn't even get a chance to testify. He looked horrified.  The Commonwealth attorney and “victims advocate” that morning assured us they were going to fight for us. They were SO SORRY this had happened to us. They were SO GRATEFUL that I had come to testify in my condition.  Instead they seemingly intentionally let the monster walk free. It's been two years.  Yesterday he was released on bail for yet another crime—one of at least THIRTEEN he's committed since that day in court—including sexual abuse of a child under 15.  His arrest record from just the last 5 years spans four pages on the Virginia court website.  Look at how many women—and CHILDREN—he's victimized since that day.  Look how many times his victims have gone to court just as I did only to see him set free again and again and again.  This is NOT happening by accident.  This is deliberate.
This violent repeat sexual abuser has been repeatedly let out on bail, then when he commits MORE violent crimes while out on bail, he's STILL given suspended sentences... over and over and over."

Rachel, Maker of Wild Sparrow Naturals on X - "I remember sitting at a little house gathering in around 2017. The book “The New Jim Crow” had just come out a few years prior and so many people in my academic social groups were reading it and becoming “woke” to how black men were disproportionately incarcerated in the U.S. After talking about it for a bit, I asked someone “well what if they commit more crime? Then shouldn’t you expect higher rates of incarceration?” And the people at the table stared at me like I had 3 heads. Then someone said something like “you don’t understand. We need to do something about the racial bias in our prisons.”"
