Remember back... you were a kid...

...some oldster told you what to do... you'd just beat him 'til he toppled?

-- Yeah... me neither...

-- OTTAWA -- A 57-year-old Gatineau man who was badly beaten while trying to stop a young man from stealing a pumpkin in Aylmer last week died in hospital on Thursday.

After the cyclist told the young men to leave the pumpkins alone, one thief attacked him and inflicted serious head injuries, police said.

But don't you worry... the "justice" system is all over this...

On Saturday, police arrested a 19-year-old Pontiac man and charged him with assault causing bodily harm. The teenager was released following a promise to appear in court.

Upgraded charges against the 19-year-old are now being considered by Crown prosecutors.

Hey, Peace Moonbeam... those prisons all the leftbots are screaming about... you actually believe they're for the highschool pothead down the block?

Wake up and smell the homicide.
