F’ing Canada… More Like America Than They Think
VANCOUVER, British Columbia (Reuters) - A Canadian man who admitted shoplifting C$106 in razor blades has been awarded C$12,000 ($10,645) for injuries he suffered when he was tackled by store security guards.
A British Columbia Supreme Court judge said that just because Daniel Baines admitted the store had a right to arrest him in the 2004 incident, it did not mean he lacked credibility as a witness about being beaten while being apprehended.
What the hell is that shit, Vancouver? Seriously?
He gets tackled while shoplifting and you award him damages?
I swear… You guys don’t realize it, but you’re just as asinine as the idiot juries in this country.
