I get it now! It was in my face on CBC news the other day. Jim Nunn wanted to know what Dartmouth leadership had to say about 3 shootings in a single week. Exuding testosterone all over my television set the woman was so tough and so smug, she lectured how only people involved in criminal activity get shot so if you dont want to get shot dont engage in criminal activity. Can the blinders be lifted any higher on this leaders face? What a pathetic, spineless stance for a democrat! On the very same day citizens in BC stage a large protest for the legalization of pot as a major step towards reducing violence on the streets. In the East theyd have innocents caught in the crossfire and do nothing but shrug while in the West theres some forward thinking going on. Whats wrong with you people? Dont you watch national/world news? Can you not learn from what has been effective elsewhere? Why would our leaders deny simple reality?
I shouldnt have to say it but I will. What if the shooter missed and the bullet went right through the wall and killed the child sleeping, not criminalizing, in the adjacent apartment? Thats only one reason to not let criminals kill each other. What if your 14/15 year old child fell into the wrong crowd for a single day and ended up at a house after school where big brother is the big pot dealer? Our idiot leaders simply shrug hoping theyll all kill each other and dam the children for living. Dam them again for learning!
Im sorry. I dont believe Canadians should do nothing while violence erupts in the city. My neighbours are dying and so are their children! Whether the leaders of Dartmouth admit it or not, people are afraid and they should be!
Mature men get mugged after dark in this town! Hello???
We have leaders who during one event fight the people who dont want to see their road widened and during the next theyre raising the bridge tolls to discourage driving. Hello?
We have leaders who introduce law to enable crime fighters and in the next breath they say the criminals will take care of things by killing each other, no worries. Hello?
I find this mayhem of mixed messages unacceptable. Dont you?
