I Hope you get what’s coming

That’s fucking sick. No words.
Yeah, what Mole Rat said.
Disgusting. Sorry this crap happened to you OP and I hope they can catch the punks that did it. Makes me wish I had a cape and superpowers.
I am so sorry…rotten bastards 🙁 may they get rammed up the ass with a red-hot curling iron.
That’s one of the most awful stories I’ve ever heard. So sorry, OP.
Fuck…
Fuck, I am so sorry! I don’t belive people should be able to carry guns, yet at the same time If I had one in my purse and saw this happening to you I doubt I’d hesitate to use it. Last year my dog escaped the garden as someone was coming through the gate and got hit by a car. I was 6 months pregnant at the time, and as I sit in the street crying over my dying dog while my husband ran for help, a drugged out, completely inebriated woman came stumbling up to me and started taunting me- screaming in my face: ‘Looks like fuckin’ your dog kicked the bucket sweetheart!’ She then started poking my poor dog and so I cried at her to leave us alone- and she responded by punching me in the face.
Sorry, I was typing quickly. I don’t want to the spelling/grammar police on me! That’s ‘sat’ in the street, not ‘sit’! And ‘believe’
That is sad. I blame it all on the bleeding heart justice system who turns these thugs out on the street to hurt innocent, law-abiding people. God bless.
It is not entirely the bleeding heart justice systems fault. It is also the bleeding heart peoples fault too. Canadians are different than Americans, and I think that we would react different to Capital Punishment too. And forget about Death-Row, one appeal, 90 Days tops. And as for the cost of putting someone to death it is grossly exaggerated. There is no way in hell it costs as much as they say. If a Canadian was 100% sure they would die if the Killed a Law Enforcement Officer or Murdered another human, almost all Canadians thinking of killing would reconsider. And the ones that would not reconsider and follow through would not get the opportunity to commit a second offense. There would be no re-offenders. A whole bunch of scumbags permanently off the street.As for the innocent that would be wrongfully convicted and put to Death, the number would be low. And that number would defiantly be lower than the amount of innocent people getting killed by bad people, so it would counter balance. Besides that the needs of the many out way the needs of the few.You want to stop punks from killing on the street. Have cops shoot a few of them to death on the street. Catch a few and put them death within 90 days of being caught. You’ll see a whole bunch of criminals acting more civil. I guarantee it. The Justice System has to change now before it is totally out of control. It will be a throw back, times will be like the wild west if we do not take control of it now. People will arm themselves and they will enact there own style of justice. We will end up being more like America then we care to be.
Jesus, Scott! Could you be any more extreme? I bet if you spoke to any American they’d tell you that the death penalty does not deter people from crime! If it did, states like California and Texas, where the death penalty is legal, would be crime-free.
Right, because working to change the conditions that lead to violent crime is hard and let’s just get other people to put ’em all to death. “Or else” we’ll turn into the wild west. Sorry but that sounds an awful lot like the wild west to me right there.
Heh, hey Scott, would you be ok being one of the ‘low numbers of people being wrongfully convicted and executed”? Ha ha, I guess it’d be a price you’d be willing to pay if it meant saving other ‘innocents’. ha ha, sorry, can’t help laughing at the concept.
Bullshit, I heard this same kind of crap before. Maybe your where robbed, I highly doubt you where prego. I have heard more then enough people say that just to make it seem ten times worse. I mean; “Oh my got, I just got beaten, robbed, and miscaraged…. shit! I need to write this on The Coast!!
Kim I agree with you 100%. Most people would have enough common sense to keep something so personal like that to themselves and let the police handle it, but to put it in the coast bitches is odd. Must be looking for attention.
Yeah, an anonymous person who didn’t leave their name must be looking for attention. If so, maybe they need to rethink their strategy.
Let’s operate under the assumption that women have and do get jumped and beaten up, that there is always a chance that a woman who gets jumped and beaten up could be pregnant, that the OP reported the crime, and that she still wanted to vent about it, so she came here.
Seems there are some of those ‘bleeding heart s’ here, good. I always here people knocking the idea of capital punishment, but never coming up with any other viable ideas. I wonder why that is?
Scott,Just shut up and move to Myanmar. They have a justice system more suited to your tastes, and we wouldn’t have to listen to your right-wing drivel any longer. Win win situation if you ask me.To the OP,My sympathies go out to you.
Egon, since I am still in Canada and can say whatever-the-hell I want. I would like to take this opportunity to tell you to go fuck yourself to the key of G, I would have said E but I save that for the nicer people.I am guessing you all think the Justice System is just fine as it is. Since there were no real expressions either way. And I am guessing the people of Nova Scotia are already like Americans, or at least think they are. That would explain some of the comments here and some of the Halifax attitude.
Scott equates silence with “never coming up with any other viable ideas.”No Scott, we just can’t be bothered on something as redundant as an online forum for free magazine in Halifax.
Hmmmmm.Last year there was a pregnant poster named NMH who’s dog ran out of a gate and was hit by a car.A = NMH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I knew she hadn’t really left!!!!!!!!!!!!!
