All of it is designed to buy votes -- even if it is full of internal inconsistencies.<br /><br />Harper has no wish to see justice done.

A depanneur owner called Leo Boulet, aged 75, was attacked by two assailants in his shop. He shot one in the back with an unregistered pistol. He was charged with six charges, including aggravated assault. <br /><br />The damn thing is that the judge has no discretion allowed to him or her in sentencing, due to Steve Harper's so called reforms of the criminal justice system back in 2008. Leo would normally be granted some leniency, due to his age, state of health and the fact that this was the eighth time he was robbed. He is not a criminal, just an elderly shopkeeper defending himself. But the "reforms" mean that the justice system is totally rigid and unresponsive to different situations.<br /><br />So Steve Harper encourages people to take the law into their own hands, just as Leo did. But then they are charged with crimes and find themselves in a harsh and rigid criminal justice system that Steve Harper himself set up.<br /><br />You really have to be very stupid to take Steve Harper seriously. By the way, the kid Leo shot, aged 23, survived and is even walking. ffdnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35117130.post-56077447680690476562015-03-20T15:44:19.768-04:002015-03-20T15:44:19.768-04:00It's pretty clear that Harper has a deep seate...It's pretty clear that Harper has a deep seated animus against a lot of people and a lot of things, Mogs.<br /><br />I won't speculate about where it comes from.
