Gerald Stanley Trial
Mr. Stanley has been acquitted of first degree murder in the shooting death of Colten Boushie in a jury verdict released 20 minutes ago. Watch the defecation hit the oscillating rotator,now.
If a tree falls on your ex in the woods and nobody hears it,you should probably still get rid of your chainsaw. Just sayin'....

I believe he was charged with second degree. Sounds to me like the Crown May have screwed up. Why would they not have considered manslaughter ???

After reading just a few clips it would appear someone made the intent to steal a truck and ATV. Maybe they should have gone about it in a different manner.

Yep,instead of showing half hammered with a gun looking to steal a truck. That tends to lead to Darwin Awards. Play stupid games,win stupid prizes.

Did sound to me like a hang fire disaster based on very old ammo he had : 1953 military surplus cartridges from Czechoslovakia . He shot in the air several times as a warning, then lowered the gun and then it went off. jmo
Very sad for the young native though.

Ask yourself if you'd be saying that about a group of white kids in your neighbourhood, or someone else you might have known.
Yes they were on his property, intoxicated and likely looking to steal, but I still don't understand the verdict. I read that the pistol was examined and found to be mechanically sound. And pointed at the kids head ?
certainly seems to be a game changer if a valid defence for murder is that the gun went off by itself while pointed at someone

Stealing anything should not be a death sentence.

Did he get shot because he wasn’t white.

That's why you have so much stealing go on up there -someone is stealing something from you and you can't do anything about it - that doesn't happen down here - if someone is in a car and the police stop the car - if the driver drives the car in the direction of the cop - the cop will shoot him in self defense - likewise if someone is stealing you car and you stand in front of the car - if the thief aims the car at you - you can shoot the thief in self defense - same thing would happen if someone aims a ATV at you - down here the moral of the story is - don't go around stealing things -
I know some of you will say that killing someone over some property is not right - I am not advocating that you do - only that you could down here under certain circumstances - as far as I am concerned it would depend on what they are attempting to steal and how I felt at the time - where do you draw the line -
