    Especially if you're high and fall off.

    He was lauded so much for that shot that it became truly embarrassing for him. It definitely was a hell of a shot and probably saved that guy's life.

    Law Enforcement - The Good, The Bad, The Ugly.....

    Unfortunately, TV shows and movies have conditioned people to think that every cop/gun owner is a sharpshooter, under high pressure conditions. Cops frequently get asked things like, "Why didn't you just shoot the gun out of his hand?" Then you have an incident, like this one, that reinforces...

    Drive w/ Handheld Device

    Please note that the longer the delay, instigated by the accused, the less likely The Crown will want to make any deals. Human nature.

    The idea of taking one of the most beautiful women in the world, sticking her in a blonde wig and blue contacts.... That just ****** me off.

    It's good. Well worth watching. It's also the movie that a good chunk of "Zoolander" parodies.

    Trigger discipline is also supposed to be trained into cops.

    Law Enforcement - The Good, The Bad, The Ugly.....

    Even in the US there is such a things as a OR bond for $XXXX.XX. There have been a few high profile cases in which someone should have forfeited bail and the judge has specifically balked at taking someone's home. As far as I'm concerned when you act as surety for someone, you should be...

    Law Enforcement - The Good, The Bad, The Ugly.....

    In an ideal world that's exactly how it should go. Picked up for flight from police and exactly the same sort of crime that they were on bail for should land them either in holding, or with a massively increased bond amount that's tantamount to the same thing.

    "Ironheart" On D+ - OK. Not on par with the best of the MCU TV series, but leagues above stuff like "Secret Invasion."

    They're doing a sequence of movies; "28 days later", "28 Weeks Later", and "28 Years Later."

    Law Enforcement - The Good, The Bad, The Ugly.....

    I would be hesitant to credit a hit piece like that, without knowing the full history of criminal charges and releases in Canada. For example if the 2013 charges were his first and he was allowed pretrial release, because of that, then how is the Canadian justice system at fault? None of that...

    Hopefully they don't completely botch it like the Mahoney-Bruer trial.

    I'm thinking that evidence came up light and he was caught red-handed, likely on camera. They wouldn't want to test this law with anything less than a slam dunk.

    I've already outlined what I think we need to do, to deal with frequent fliers, repeatedly in several previous posts.

    "Death of a Unicorn" - Utterly predictable and we can do better CGI than that. OK, I guess, if you just want to turn your brain off for a couple of hours.

    On episode 4 at the moment.

    Law Enforcement - The Good, The Bad, The Ugly.....

    One clear benefit to society is that you don't need to house someone, at the cost of hundreds of thousands of dollars a year, that has an impact on every tax paying citizen. Another is that you convert a net drain to a net contributor. As I have said, previously, where our system falls down is...

    Law Enforcement - The Good, The Bad, The Ugly.....

    How easy something is to steal doesn't mitigate against the theft. The delivery guy is going to be punished by his insurance company. No idea how the female was involved and the story doesn't make it any more clear. The guy who actually stole the car is on the hook for everything that he did.

    Just about to start doing the same, myself. Also, season 4 of "Resident Alien" started last week.
