If only he'd used a gun...

"In 2006 alone, more than 70% of all people charged with murder were on some sort of judicial release."
Yup... let's concentrate on Robert Latimer.

There's the real danger to society.

UPDATE: There's a poll at the Globe



FROM THE COMMENTS:
Keep Latimer locked up, let this guy out unsupervised ... what a system.

- In 1995, upset about those same voices, he waited in the CJOH parking lot and plugged two shots into the first person he recognized -- who turned out to be popular Smith, a former NHL player who left work early because he was on his way to a charity event.

LAST WORD: Focus on the criminals...

Is that too much to ask?
A teen suffered multiple stab wounds at an Etobicoke highrise in a suspected gang attack today.

Toronto Police said the victim, around 16, was found alone and bleeding profusely in an elevator by tenants at 2777 Kipling Ave., south of Steeles Ave., at 4:23 p.m.

He suffered two stab wounds to the chest and another to the head. He was rushed to Sunnybrook for emergency surgery. His condition was not immediately known.
