6 years for beating a man into vegitation? Fucking scum lawyers. Anyways, regarding the most of the article. Good job on the wife.

Actually 6 years would still be on the high end of the scale. If you don't kill somebody (or even if you do, sometimes) you can shit kick them into a coma and expect to get a couple of years at most.

In BC we had 3 native guys (two were juveniles) kick the shit out of a white guy. He's not in a coma, but he's not the same either, and his promising gold carreer is gone. The juvies got 3 months house arrest (ie they had to stay on the res) while the adult got 2 years. Can you imagine the hue and cry if the races were reversed?

In Esquimalt some gang banger wannabes kicked a guy into a coma for wearing red. (He's now in long term care in TO) One of then was out and back on trial for the next assault, while the victim in the first case was still in hospital.

We just don't take violence seriously enough in this society, especially if it's between males, or done to males.

Just out of curiosity why would the Esquimalt thugs care if somebody is wearing Red? They must not like the RCMP.

Red as in Red Indian, wearing red is therefore presuming that you get to call yourself native.

The desire for Native Pride is strong, it's just that there don't seem to be any Natives that know how to go about it.

They are so very lost it makes me queasy with sympathy and loathing.

You're from the States and you've never heard of the Crips and Bloods? These guys were wiggers, not the real thing, but the assault was real. (I may have been wrong and it was blue the guy was wearing, no diff).

I'm of the wrong ethnic persuasion to get into the gang
"know how" although is is incumbent to get to know some of the seamier side of your own nation. My gang knowledge is indeed lacking. I don't consider it a major concern, but mildly curious at times. I'd rather read about Canada and other civilized cultures.
