A Sad Contrast

California: A drunk driver kills 3 people (including Angels pitcher, Nick Adenhart), and is facing up to 55 years in prison.

British Columbia: A gangster, Dennis Karbovanec, was convicted of murdering 3 people and is eligible for parole in 15 years.

BC's Judicial System: Insanity or Corruption?

Today, I heard some interesting facts about crime in B.C. Between 2001 - 2006, 379 career drug addicts who had turned to robbery to support their addictions had an average of 39 convictions. In terms of punishment, startling figures were revealed:

• 101 = Average number of days incarceration for their 1st conviction
  
  
• 25 = Average number of days incarceration on their 30th or greater conviction
  

Think about that for a second. Does it make even the slightest bit of sense to you that incarceration time dropped?

Now consider this: Each of these criminals has stolen an average of $1 Million per year. That's $379 Million worth of theft per year.

Question: What is another definition for a liberal judge?

Answer: A criminal's best friend. :-(

Destroying Canadian Society, One Court Case at a Time

Not long after the quasi-judicial fiasco of the BC "Human Rights" Kangaroo Court, we have a judge in Quebec striving to win the Monty Python award for Ridiculousness. If anyone can make a logical argument about how this ruling can possibly be a good one, I'd love to hear it!

Update: There's a superb discussion about this judicial decision, which you can listen to here (tune to 7:40). At 25:33 a Vancouver caller named Mike has a brilliant line that I wish I had come up with:

[The social activists on the left] use the word "progressive", Roy, like it means "good" all the time. But it doesn't. You know, the last thing you want to hear from your doctor is that you have a progressive cancer.

What an accurate metaphor! Canada is the body and these social activists have infested various parts of the body and are destroying it, just like cancer does.
