This dude is in big trouble.

Believe me, "I live with no fear at all ".

It was definitely about stealing a truck as they had checked out a couple of other trucks , one of the other owners replied to them , "you don't want to know what I did in the Israeli Army " when one of them asked what he did previously. They obviously chickened out for fear of harm being done to them , then picked on a soft going person like Timothy Bosma .

I am not making this up as this comment has made national news and the news papers, they apparently would not go after someone that was tough , so they picked on and killed Tim Bosma and just for a truck !

That's mostly true but they were psychopathic serial killers. Let's not pretend this was a truck heist gone bad.

Did you know they had their animal carcass incinerator all queued up and ready to go that night? This wasn't aboit a truck. The 3500 engine was a nice bonus but their plan was to target, kill, and attempt to dispose of the body

Don't forget they did the exact same thing with Laura Babcock and she didn't have anything worth stealing. Just her life.

Fox, I took your post to mean that it was specifically about targeting Tim, which it wasn't. I understand what you were trying to say now. It had everything to do with getting a truck similar to Millards, and they had no intention of buying it.

Except the scenario where you fired a shot at him for good measure while he fled...you'll go to prison for that.

And when you do...can I borrow your truck?

Don't worry I won't be going to jail - not down here anyway - as far as borrowing my truck - no way - its my baby - an F350 X4- wouldn't lend that to anyone - its an 05 with only 30K miles on it - all from hauling my camper and boat to go fishing - mostly up into Canada - there is one thing I don't like when I travel to Canada is the fact that I can't have any protection with me - can't carry a gun so I depend on a canister of bear spray just in case -

Here is an interesting lawyer's perspective:

Peter Khill case: Law says it's self-defence if the force is 'reasonable'


Someone can use force to stop another person from taking property, says a criminal defence lawyer

Exactly! See post #43. All the homeowner has to say is "I told him to stop and he threatened to kill me and started to come after me,your honor. I feared for my life." Right now,the Crown will be working feverishly to "develop" a case against this man. If that doesn't work,charges will be "withdrawn because of no reasonable prospect of conviction." It's done to prevent a blanket precedent being set as a matter of law instead of having each case judged on it's own merits.

Ian Thomson was taken to trial and acquitted because he fired warning shots from INSIDE his house in order to scare away some punks who FIREBOMBED his house. He and his family were in REAL danger and I likely would of done the same but they threw every charge they could at him,from inproper storage to careless use and illegal discharge.( probably more).

How much did he pay in legal fees ? did he ever get his guns back? how many years of his life wasted? I have no sympathy for the punk that got shot stealing a truck but you gotta ask yourself if it would be worth it and unless the laws in this country change to protect the victims of theft I would have to say no, not worth it.
Armchair quarterback aside ,If the Hamilton man simply yelled out that the cops were on the way I am sure the thieves would of taken off back to oshweekin as thieves don't like to be caught.

Just sharing a link for anyone who might want to chip in towards his defense.

Why should you be allowed if we cannot drive around with ours down there;-)
The bear spray is very effective, to say thr least. Using it on people as it were regular pepper spray (Which we are not even allowed up here...), will get you in serious trouble regardless if the guy is seriously injured or not
Hey, i'm all for the better to be judged by 12 than carried by 6, but a canister of bear spray is designed for a polar bear and not to teach a punk some manners

It's my understanding that having bear spray is legal in Ontario - when checked at the border the agents see what I have and say that it's ok - I always have a can or two with me when I go camping and fishing - If I see some punk stealing my fishing equipment out of my boat some night while its docked I'm going to confront the punk and if he makes any move in my direction he's getting a face full of bear spray - naturally I felt that the punk was going to harm me so I acted in self-defense - you really think the punk is going to the cops and tell them that he got sprayed while trying to steal something - I don't think so - and if by chance he does you going to tell me that I'm in trouble - things can't be that bad in Ontario - I sure hope not because if they are I ain't going there anymore - because I ain't going to stand around while some punk steals from me - no way

[Oddmott]

You've been coming to Ontario for how long JoePa?

I bet you've NEVER had cause to use firearm nor bear spray in self defense against a thief. But you'd get bent out of shape if it did turn out to be illegal? Lol
