3. (1) For all purposes of this Act, the prohibited grounds of discrimination are race, national or ethnic origin, colour, religion, age, sex, sexual orientation, marital status, family status, disability and conviction for an offence for which a pardon has been granted or in respect of which a record suspension has been ordered.
Or maybe setting a girl's hair on fire is not a discriminatory practice.
Maybe they should burn the judge. After all, he did say it’s not racism.
Leftists and Muslims are joining forces against God and civilization.
It’s time for judges and juries to punish actions, not motivations. The girl would have been just as burned regardless of the motivation.
Don’t they have a game in Brooklyn called “punch the Jew” or something like that.
I'm guessing a lot of Freepers are.
I would be proud to be one of that family!
So if I go to Winnipeg,go up to a black person,hold a lighter to his hair,and say “Let’s kill the ********”, it’s okay?
I’ll be darned.
.
wow
Judges are not an ethnic group, either. Thanks markomalley.
“Its time for judges and juries to punish actions, not motivations.”
That’s always been my opinion. Motivation might be a factor to consider in sentencing, but it shouldn’t determine whether some extra charge is filed or not. There’s too much room for private interpretation and abuse in that kind of system.
That guy needs a few tough Yids to pay him an after school visit. Are there no tough Yids in Winnipeg? JDF types, that is. And I am one so I can use the term, so everyone relax.
I think in order to mount the same defense, you’d have to hang out with the guy and call him a ****** for a while first. Then, you could claim it was just a nickname, like this kid’s lawyer did.
The demographics of the perp might explain a little bit.
Never,never,*ever* would I vote guilty on *any* "hate crime" charge.In this case it's clearly a crime to have grabbed the girl.It's also a crime to have held a lighter to her head.Regardless of his motives he had *no* justification for having done so...so,IMO,he deserves very serious punishment.Perhaps a year or more if this his first offense...*much* longer if it isn't.
Was the assailant Moslem?
Or maybe "let's burn the idiot."
Some guys that are talented practitioners of Krav Maga? Yeah, they should pay the punk a visit and make sure the lesson learned is unequivocal and unforgettable.
the girls fault her hair caught on fire.
But officer, the punk got in the way of my bullet! If he wouldn’t have been standing there....
Maybe the judge is just a total liberal idiot. Sadly that's an all-too-common reason in the United States.
