Canadian Man Charged with Attempted Murder After Wrestling Away Gun, Shooting Suspect
Breitbart ^ | July 31, 2017 | AWR HAWKINS

Posted on 08/02/2017 4:40:15 AM PDT by lowbridge

According to the Herald, “Three men entered the residence with guns and a struggle took place with two men inside.” The two men inside the home managed to take away one of the guns and “several shots were fired as the suspects fled.” One of the suspects was shot and suffered non-life threatening injuries.

Kyle Earl Munroe was arrested and “charged with attempted murder and a raft of firearms offences after helping fend off [the] home invaders, one of whom he’s now charged with shooting.”

The precise charges he faces are “attempted murder, intent to discharge a firearm, intent to discharge a firearm when being reckless, careless use of a firearm, improper storage of a firearm, pointing a firearm, possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose, unauthorized possession of a firearm, possession of a firearm knowing that possession is unauthorized, and possession for the purpose of trafficking.”

Thank God they didn’t use any foul language or “hate” the intruders. That would have lead to some serious charges.

This is why I will only ever visit Canada. They have been on the dark side for many years now.

I’m sure Trudeau agrees with the arrest.

That’s a heck of lot of gun laws. How come there’s still burglaries going on?

Is this satire? Or has the nation of Canada passed into a dark place?

So what else are we not to expect from a country where the Prime Minister just gives 8 million buck to a guy who is fighting with the Taliban, kills an American serviceman, severely wounds another and is locked up in GITMO? Because his civil rights were supposedly violated.

Why wasn’t he charged with theft of a firearm?

Canada, oh Canada.......how far you have fallen.

Animal Farm and 1984 could never have predicted the reality of the depth of your fall.

This was Nova Scotia, not Ontario

Roger that. This case is ripe for jury nullification.

1) Sounds like a drug ripoff gone bad, so of course the cops are going to pile as many charges as possible on the ‘victims.’

2) Even in the United States, (with the exception of Texas, and only at night,) shooting at someone who is fleeing is a felony.

“Why wasn’t he charged with theft of a firearm?”....

I saw that as well. Poor police work, IMO.

Glad I do not live in Canada and have to live under their gun laws.

I suspect that the guy charged was himself, NOT a “good” guy. The cops certainly seemed to want him put away for a time by leveling all those charges against him, surely something would have to “stick”.

The phrase "as the intruders fled" leads me to suspect that someone got caught up in the moment and shot one of the perps in the back.

That might work in Texas but certainly not in governed-by-wussies Canada. Good rule of thumb is do not shoot at a fleeing suspect/perp.
