Topaz Posted October 3, 2011 Report Posted October 3, 2011 Americans are shocked that within the new crime bill, Harper is giving pot growers more time in jail than a pedophile! more are outrage that he thinks growing pot is more serious than sexually abusing a child. At least with pot grower they can to helped but a pedophile can't and so should be locked forever if they show no improved. Again, this is just another way of the Tories to let Canadians pay their ideas. The provinical jails will be so crowded, that they have to turn some lose. Oh well, you get what you pay for and all the supporters are going to see what they paid for. http://ca.news.yahoo.com/blogs/canada-politics/americans-odds-harper-crime-bill-gives-more-jail-160536154.html Quote

Harper is just pulling the party line - In Canada things are legal that benefit the upper class - If there is no benefit..then those activities are deemed illegal. It's not about morality - it is about money. The provincial and municipal jails are all ready over crowded - mostly with poor blacks who have not payed tribute --------------unless they hand over their drug proceeds to an upscale lawyer...then they go home instead of jail. This system has been in place for a long time - it's called contribution to the "fund".. Quote

Shady Posted October 3, 2011 Report Posted October 3, 2011 Why do we care what a far leftwing blog in the United States thinks about our crime bill? Do we care what rightwing blogs think of our gun laws? Quote

Do we care what rightwing blogs think of our gun laws? We do care what others think...why what will the neighbours think...It is slightly concerning that someone in the United States actually noticed us. Canada might actually be getting to be important..Americans might be hungry for leadership - after all I don`t see any down there other than some sharp guy in a fine suit - who can get a crowd cheering and on it`s feet by mentioning how many death warrants he signed - That is not really leadership - that`s called mob rule...it could be that they notice us because we actually have a nice dictatorship - a benevolent one - the kind that the Yanks crave for.

GostHacked Posted October 3, 2011 Report Posted October 3, 2011 Well, turnabout is fair play. Laughing our asses off at something in Canada is a nice change of pace. You mean the change of pace you have taken since you joined MLW? Oh this is not the 'Hypocrisy' thread? Quote

BC is capable of good and positive change - he can change and has - thanks to YES we can....actually Bush Cheney is very reasonable and I doubt as was said by one writer that he would run me through with a boyonette if ordered...I don`t think so..It might be time to get along with our American brothes..this hate on is proving to be non-productive....BC is a man capable of forgiveness....where is OUR grace.......

Do we care what rightwing blogs think of our gun laws? You seem to care about an awful lot that goes on in the States ... so you only care about us, but you don't care what we think about you? Quote
PIK Posted October 3, 2011 Report Posted October 3, 2011 We have the lowest amount of people in jail per capita, in the free world. Harpers law will only bring us up to the world standard. And for a liberal to complain,well to bad . You had your time in power ,letting people go at a alarming rate. Now we will lock them up.

Moonlight Graham Posted October 3, 2011 Report Posted October 3, 2011 If you read the OP, "Americans" is defined as a single US blog writer and some of her readers. Very scientific. & accurate.

Oleg Bach Posted October 4, 2011 Report Posted October 4, 2011 Most of us get along just fine...those who can't....get banned for a month! Every time you get banned you return with just a little less interest. Eventually you loose respect utterly for some stanger far away who has the privledge and the power to press a button and in effect put an apple in your mouth like a roosted piglet...I am so glad that I can be the sacriafical lamb on occassion and give some people a sense of power that they other wise would not experience...they should send any banned members a small cheaque on occassion -watch this - a ban is comming my way....lol Quote
