The term police state describes a state in which the government exercises rigid and repressive controls over the social, economic and political life of the population. A police state typically exhibits elements of totalitarianism and social control, and there is usually little or no distinction between the law and the exercise of political power by the executive. ~ WikipediaTotalitarianism and social control! There you have it, the Obama Agenda! ~ Norman E. Hooben
ps: Why the Canadians haven't fought back is a mystery. Is not freedom worth fighting for?

You Cannot Speak Freely or Use a Gun In Canada
By Bernie
Early one Sunday morning last August, Ian Thomson, a 53-year-old retiree, woke up to the sound of three masked men firebombing his Port Colborne, Ontario home. Mr. Thomson, in order to stop the men from burning his house down and him with it, ran out of his home with his Smith & Wesson revolver dressed in only his underwear and fired of a few shots which stopped the firebombing of his home. 1
Well, so far so good. Having a gun saved his life.
But Mr. Thomson lives in Canada, so when he handed over the video footage of the incident to the Niagara Regional Police, he was charged with careless use of a firearm and later, charged additionally with pointing a firearm and two counts of careless storage of a firearm. The Crown recommended he go to jail according to his lawyer.
Since the men were masked, there was no way at the time to tell if the men were Muslim, which is lucky for Mr. Thomson because if the tapes showed that he was shooting at Muslims, he would have been additionally charged with a hate crime, since it is illegal in Canada to say [see my article Richard Warman is a Pedophile Worshiper] or do anything against Muslims, no matter what they do.
This is what happens when a country cares about so-called Human Rights: the innocent citizens are the ones who do not have any. Canada only encourages criminality by muzzling her citizens' guns. Canada only encourages Islamic terrorism by muzzling her citizens' speech.

National Post, 20 Jan 2011, Man faces jail after protecting home from masked attackersIan Thomson moved to a rural homestead in Southwestern Ontario to lead a quiet life investing in a little fixer-upper. Then his neighbour’s chickens began showing up on his property. He warned his neighbour, then killed one of the birds.
The incident began six years of trouble for Mr. Thomson that culminated early one Sunday morning last August when the 53-year-old former mobile-crane operator woke up to the sound of three masked men firebombing his Port Colborne, Ont., home.
“I was horrified,” he said. “I couldn’t believe it. I didn’t know what was happening. I had no idea what was going on.”
So Mr. Thomson, a former firearms instructor, grabbed one of his Smith & Wesson revolvers from his safe, loaded it and headed outside dressed in only his underwear.
“He exited his house and fired his revolver two, maybe three times, we’re not sure. Then these firebombing culprits, they ran off,” said his lawyer, Edward Burlew.
His surveillance cameras caught the attackers lobbing at least six Molotov cocktails at his house and bombing his doghouse, singeing one of his Siberian Huskies. But when Mr. Thomson handed the video footage to Niagara Regional Police, he found himself charged with careless use of a firearm.
The local Crown attorney’s office later laid a charge of pointing a firearm, along with two counts of careless storage of a firearm. The Crown has recommended Mr. Thomson go to jail, his lawyer said.

So...were these guys the owners of the dead chicken?
ReplyDeleteWhat a terrible story! We are the verge of it here - have even slightly stepped off the edge.
Thanks for helping to spread the word.
ReplyDeleteLet me guess, Ian was sent over the edge in protecting his home and life by listening to Sarah Palin and Rush Limbaugh?
ReplyDeleteLew you were close...It was George Bush's fault!
ReplyDeleteTrue, Norm. It surely couldn't be the fault of the scum firebombing his home.
