    As far as I am concerned, if a cop would not be charged for the use of force, then neither should the private citizen who is in the same situation. That's a pretty simple standard for me.

    • @ummacnai
      @ummacnai Před rokem +74

      Flip side: the police should be charged in that scenario. The prosecutor may decide not to proceed ultimately, but it should go through a fact finding scenario, outside of the police deciding unilaterally.

    • @BenWeeks-ca
      @BenWeeks-ca Před rokem

      In theory the state has a monopoly on the legal use of force in general to stop things like duelling and honour/revenge killings. What some of the "progressive" individuals who oppose police use of force don't seem to realize is that when public trust in police goes to zero, you have everyone acting as their own police, but with no judicial oversight, restraint or minimum use of force principle. It's way more dangerous and violent when permissiveness is given to criminals for crimes and punishment to law enforcement for just actions.

      and alot of the times police have the advantage from the start with alot more of them then the suspect they even use swat teams, armored trucks, tear gas, helicopters, remote controlled vehicles and so much more to stop a threat. a law abiding citizen should have the same right to use force as the police do.

      @keithdurose7057 Před 9 měsíci +62

      Exactly correct. Is someone in their own home supposed to assume that the intruder will not harm or kill them? Definately not! They must assume the worst. They, as laid down in bill C26 be enabled under the law to defend themselves, their loved ones, legal visitors and their possessions. By using deadly force if they judge it to be necessary. This is a split second decision. Not a case of hind sight debate.

      @@keithdurose7057 Absolutely. If they come in unarmed then that's one thing. There is more leeway to consider options. But if they have a deadly weapon, delaying even a moment could mean the end of you and your family. That is how you need to think to give yourself the best chance of survival. Assuming what some stranger might do, or not do, with a knife in their hand is ridiculous. You walk into someone's house, that is a ballsy move. Whatever happens to that person after making the decision to do so, I'm completely fine with it. A young kid without a weapon, that's one thing, but if the threat is completely clear and obvious (big guy with a knife) then whatever happens to that person I'm good with it.

    4 days after major surgery, while I was in bed on maximum pain killers. A caregiver who quit the previous day because I asked her to vacuum, made unauthorized entry into my home and was screaming at me and refused to leave. I managed to get up using my walker and tried to escort her to the door. She body slammed my hip (I had had hip replacement surgery) into the wall at least 4 times and then ran out the door yelling her finger was bleeding. I collapsed on the floor dialed 911 and when the officer arrived she informed me that I could be charged with assault because I got out of bed... I still suffer from this situation. Canadian laws protect the evil, not the innocent, and we have no authority to protect ourselves.

    I had a guy break into my bedroom as I slept. This was the second time. He was a friend of my brother. After the first time, I kept a butcher knife next to my bed. So when I woke up hearing my screen being cut with a knife, I was terrified, as my back was facing the window. I reached down quickly & quietly to grab the knife as he was crawling in. I couldn’t find it. I quickly flipped around to face the intruder in the dark. That’s when he spoke & identified himself. He was drunk & at that point fear turned to anger. I told him to get the f out & he tried to explain himself. Which I got more forceful telling him to leave. He left & was charged. I now have a fear of being home invaded while I sleep & I wake up to any noise. I had to move out of the city, to find a quiet place & keep a machete next to my bed. I will not be a victim of any man or our broken corrupt legal system. Especially because my senior mom lives with me. I will protect myself & her at all costs. ❤ I love my mom.

      ​@hunter5369 I never said I was retired. Also my branch has nothing to do with street policing. I do have extensive training in firearms and self defence, including the legal authorities for defending one's self. The problem I have is that with a couple exceptions the justification for using force is the same for civilians as it is for law enforcement. However the analysis after the fact isn't evenly applied. The problem is that the mentality of lay charges and let the courts sort it out needs to be eradicated. It isn't right for someone to have the reputation, life, and finances shredded while their case grinds through the courts, often for years. If someone is charged in what is a reasonably obvious case of self defense, upon acquittal, they should automatically receive full compensation for legal fees, lost income and damages.

    The results came back on this situation and the milton man was acquitted. Honestly this is the stupidest law ever that we as home owners have to wait until the person breaking into your home escalates their advances... If someone is outside your home trying to break into your car its understandable that you can't just run outside and start attacking the person, they are clearly not trying to hurt someone by being outside. But lets be honest here, if someone breaks into your home KNOWING that you are inside, for me it means the person is willing to hurt someone by taking that chance. What am i supposed to do if i see a person in my house at 3am? Ask him if he wants a coffee first? and hope that he doesn't pull a gun on me? I have 2 young kids, the idea that i have to wait until the intruder does something to be able to escalate the situation is absolutely ridiculous... I know chances are that you'd get charged and then it would go to court for their decision and chances are you will get acquitted like this man, however the law should just be clear. It will make intruders think twice before going into a home knowing that the law protects homeowners fully in these situations. lets be honest, someone comes into your home, it means their willing to be violent if needed. You can argue that they are drugs and dont know what their doing which is honestly an even more dangerous intruder as they are unstable and unpredictable. There is just no situation in which this isn't a direct threat or danger to homeowners.

      Here's the thing with that, i'm all for defending all my property including my car. The problem is when you approach somebody who is stealing your property, you have no idea where it will escalate too. You don't what kind of weapon they may have, etc. Obviously nobody wants their car broken into or stolen, but if i am confronting a stranger with the unknown that the situation could escalate, you want to think twice. I'm willing to take that chance and i would go outside to confront because i genuinely believe that most car thief's aren't looking to hurt someone. I've actually caught someone riffling through my car before, and upon confronting them they just dropped everything and ran away. I will not just right away start attacking a car thief and then try and claim self defense... It's so different when someone is in your home honestly. They know your there, they are coming into your house knowing that there is a chance they will come in confrontation with you and depending on where you come from, they may not have a way out and you just never know where it can go to.. If i see someone in my home, my instant reaction will be so much more different, and i just believe at the bare minimum the law should fully protect home owners in home invasion cases. I would honestly even support driveway too, but i think that it would be harder to justify meanwhile the home invasion one almost seems like a no brainer. @@JT-bt6jy

      You have to understand that it is THE PROCESS of having to defend yourself in court and all of the preceding legalities that are the punishment. In order to defend yourself you have to employ a lawyer, that is not cheap and can financially ruin you. Even if you are found not guilty, you have been subjected to the legal process, which is VERY EXPENSIVE. Even if the charges are dropped before getting to court because the crown counsel determines that it is in the public interest, you are still on the hook for your legal costs to that point. The system is NOT beneficial to those who are victims of having to defend themselves or others and who find themselves caught up in the legal system as a result. It has to change !!!

    We need clearer more straightforward laws like they do in the USA. When I was 16 years old (this was in the 1970’s) I was home alone while my mother was on a medico- legal course in Toronto. The house was in the Alberta countryside about 35 minutes east of Edmonton. This man started banging on the doors and windows at 3 a.m. and I was terrified. I had a big dog which the guy had stabbed outside. I called RCMP and then grabbed a baseball bat. He did break in and I hit him several times with the bat and fractured his skull, one of his arms and shoulder. The police were going to arrest and charge ME, a terrified, blubbering 16 year old girl, with aggravated assault. In the end I wasn’t arrested or taken to the station because a friend of my mothers, a homicide detective in the nearby city of Edmonton, whose number I had been given in case of emergency while my mother was away, drove out to the house when I called him and told them not to be “ridiculous”. He pointed out that the man was obviously intending harm as he’d attacked the dog and then broken the glass in a window and climbed through it with a knife in his hand. They said I might still be arrested but for the moment I wouldn’t be taken in. As it turned out the man who broke in was wanted in Vancouver, Kelowna and Calgary for aggravated assault and rape as well as for a murder in Abbotsford, BC. There was no more talk of charges being laid against me after that. I mean I was terrified and quite frankly only remember hitting this ass once although apparently I clubbed him several times. The adrenaline is spiking and time does really weird things when you’re that scared. I don’t remember half of what happened between the time I swung the bat the first time and the time the RCMP appeared. To this day I’m still confused as to what is considered “reasonable force”. We desperately need clear and straightforward laws setting out what our rights are if someone invades our home which are supposed to be our safe place. We should be allowed to defend ourselves in our own homes without fearing that we’re the ones who will end up in jail. The perpetrators of crimes in this country have more rights than the victims in my opinion. If you’re going to invade someone’s home then you should know there might be consequences delivered by the people living there. By the way, our wonderful dog survived five stab wounds and lived to 14 years of age.

    The initial statement to the responding police can often determine the direction of the case.
    As a former use of force police instructor, this area "articulation" is always revisited during annual training.
    We also discuss tactical concerns, environmental, geographic, weapon systems, abilities of all parties, potential for other threats...and related impact factors that formulate an immediate action plan.
    Additionally, the recent statement by police regarding the leaving of keys by the door due to the prolific issue of home invasions must now be considered by police, courts, and property owners.

      Seems like for Canadian law, you should sit down and discuss with the intruder what their intentions are, if they are armed, if they intend to use force or weapons or pick up anything in your house and use it against you. Then you can decide what type of defence you can use to "equal" the force so that you can go punch for punch, or blow for blow, or shot for shot... perhaps a dual would be in order and this is where the law came from. Agree on how many paces, turn and shoot. A gentleman's dispute. Or perhaps you can match knives then on the word "go" you could see who wins the day. If you win, you are law abiding and protected with equal force, the charges that will be placed on you will be cleared eventually. If the intruder wins, they get to plunder your home and family, and they used the same force of you so perhaps a "trespassing" charge or something to steer them into better decisions in the future.

In 2020 Texas was the 18th state or around there on the list for burglaries that year...the fact that Michigan, New Jersey, and New York were way down on the list compared to Texas tells me that we definitely should not take it as a "great example" .

      1: you need to have been illegally attacked(whatever the hell that means)
      2:you need to be 100% sure that your attacker will continue the attack
      3: the force you use needs to be equivalent to the force your attacker uses.
      Wich makes no sense since anybody who attacks you for nothing ia obviously doing so illegally. And to use only the equivalent force that your attacker uses makes even less sense. You have to be able to stop your attacker completetly to ensure your own safety so rule 3 goes right out the window. Now obviously if someone just pushed you thats no reason to stab them 37 times but still...anyway, the judge said that the force i used was too much compared to my attackers so while i had rules 1 and 2 covered rule 3 wasnt.

    I had some people break into my garage and I called the police. I asked what I would be allowed to do to defend my property… he said “call the police”… I replied, “I’ve got a wife and three kids in this house, if men break in my first priority is to protect them”. He told me “if you have the option to get away, like out the back door, or if you’re upstairs you can lock yourself in the bathroom or bedroom, then you need to take those options and then call the police. If you engage with the perpetrators when you could have backed away, we will charge you”… I couldn’t believe it. “Even if it’s in my own house and they broke in… I’m not allowed to stop them, protect my property and family” I said… he responded, “it our job to protect your family, not yours”… I love Canada, my family has been here for over 258 years… but it’s disgrace that our laws are so worse than Americas. And yea, some states don’t have stand your ground laws or last castle doctrines, but they have better free speech protection and more ways to keep yourself and family safe… not to mention our national media is subsidized by the federal government and oil companies like Irving Oil own local media. I used to see people get so excited when they paid off their mortgage… then I grew up and realized you don’t ever really own anything. That house that’s paid off is on government land you’re renting… and you want to leave extra stuff to your family, prepare to pay the tax. Just remember that if someone breaks into your house you better not defend yourself, because the courts will argue your force wasn’t reasonable and you’ll be in jail next to the thief

    The trouble in Canada... is the lack of personal accountability. It's one sided. The homeowner has to be personally accountable to what he does to the intruder... but the intruder doesn't need to fear consequences for his actions towards Joe citizen in the moment... only if he's properly apprehended by police and put before the courts.
    If you grab your kids and flee while calling the police... and the intruder/s is caught... they only will be charged.
    If you fight back or your dog bites them... then you may also face charges... and your dog will be put down.
    No one asked the intruder to break into your home... he chose to. If the consequences are immediate and life threatening to the intruder... that is a direct consequence for his own inappropriate actions (break and enter, threatening with or assaulting with a weapon.)
    The moral would be... if you don't want to get shot at, hit with a bat or bitten by a dog... don't break into someone elses home. It's that simple.

    I will start by saying I lived in Texas for close to 20 years, so I am well aware of what can happen there if you break into someone’s house. What makes no sense about the law here is that I have to wait until they “communicate” their intentions to me before I know what force to respond with? In other words, I can only respond once attacked. So our law gives the criminal the upper hand…they get to go first? Nuts. If someone broke into my house, my only way out may be to pass them. Huh? Oh and I should retreat leaving my two kids upstairs in their beds? Our room is on the main floor and kids are up. Of course not, I am going to defend them. Since I have no clue of the intruder’s intention, the best defence of my sleeping kids upstairs may be to offensively attack the intruder so they retreat. Why do I have to retreat from my house? Listen, I can promise you I will do what I need to do if someone ever breaks into my home and deal with the consequences later. What other choice do I really have? One thing is for sure, I will be dead or they will be very sorry. The laws need to be changed in favour of the homeowner.

      You have to retreat because in Canada the house and its contents don't belong to you. They belong to the King. They aren't yours. So if somebody takes them it's got nothing to do with you. Same with your body. It belongs to the King, you are a thrall. Therefore you can only inflict the bare minimum damage on another thrall (also the King's property) in order to defend your life.

    The ambiguous nature of the Canadian laws is troublesome, and it's unsettling as a citizen.
    The problem is simply that every situation is going to be unique, and expecting people to reflect and consider the situation unemotionally and with a calm mind when there may only be seconds in which to react to a home invader in the middle of the night is not reasonable or practical. That's the reality of it.
    A stranger that has broken into your home in the middle of the night poses an "undetermined" threat that may potentially lead to your demise. If you can't escape immediately then you pose an existential threat to the intruder which is a very dangerous situation. If they are armed with a knife they can kill you very quickly as you are considering what you might or might not be allowed to do legally. I find it ridiculous that we have this problem in Canada. It's outrageous. An intruder by default poses a life threatening risk to you the moment he enters your home uninvited.

    I live in Canada. I'm in a rural area, a man broke into my house. I woke up to the sound of glass smashing so I call the cops. I could hear my wife and kids needed help the man was hurting them, and I did what any Canadian man would do I lock myself in a room sat in my chair, and waited for the cops to do their job. I waited 25 mins, I remember the sounds I will always remember the sounds. cops arrived and shot the man, asked the cop why did you shoot him he said "Self-defense" As he caressed my hair, needless to say, I don't have a wife or kids anymore but I have a new cop boyfriend for he can protect me better than me. I still argue about the 25 min response time with him. In the Canadian government I trust, cuz your poor/middle-class family is expendable. I think only politicians have the right to self defense.

      You definitely handled that in the right Canadian way. If you had shot the intruder, the cops would have shot you when they arrived 25 minutes later, as the identified "gunman". They would have also shot your wife and kids as gang related accomplices anyway. So at least you are still alive and you have a new boyfriend. Now it's time to transition into a woman and the story has a fairy tale happy ending.

    You should see how the RCMP responds to people being attacked in their homes in BC. I know of many instances of this, but a well-reported example that happened only just a few months back occurred in Kamloops. A man, presumably on drugs, drilled through his floor into a neighbour's apartment with a giant ice auger in the middle of the night. Then the man jumped through the hole and attacked the residents of that apartment. A man grappled with the assailant who was beating him with the ice auger, while the victim's mother called the cops. Cops arrived, chased the man outside, then had to arrest him at gun point. Take a wild guess who got charged in this scenario.
    Furthermore, I am sure that there is a correlation between people understanding that their lives will be ruined if they call the cops and increasing amounts of missing drug addicts.

They will come when they are comfortable that the bad guy has done what they were there for and is gone. Did not matter if the victim's life was in danger. They would simply arrest the bad guy, meanwhile you are either injured or dead. And heaven help you if you defended yourself and the bad guy got hurt in your home.

THATS UNFAIR because you are already at a massive disadvantage. We should use the same rules that law enforcement use if they have a gun you yell at them to drop it if they aim you shoot until the suspect is no longer a threat or if the suspect charges at you with a knife you can shoot to stop the threat but thats not allowed here apparently its very unfair especially for people that live out in the country side 20 - 60 minutes from any city and long police response times we should ABSOLUTELY be able to defend ourselves with anything necessary until the threat is gone.
