Ok, i know this sounds awful, but i live in ottawa, and if you are living in vanier, that says it all right there. You guys are right, i have never heard of the ottawa police doing that over just pot. frankly you dont know her legal history, if shes gotten in trouble before, what she is involved with.

now i do know nice people in vanier myself, i have friends that live there. but frankly, having spent enough time there i can pretty safely say its not a nice area at all, there are a lot of drug and prostitution issues in vanier. I wouldnt walk alone there at night for all the money in the world.

Her story sounds nice, and i want to feel badly for her i do, but i would take what the ottawa sun writes with the worlds biggest grain of salt. its a trashy news paper. All of the Sun news papers are really trashy. it is very sensationalist and bends the truth in a big way.

Do i think the cops used undo force. yes.

do i think the story has been exaggerated by the media? yes.


killerweed owning guns is not illegal in canada. we can legally own guns, i assure you even in the cold they work. :P

and no you cant just shoot someone who busts down your door. the police are granted permission by the state to use only as much force as needed in order to handle a given situation. you cannot shoot them, it is a crime. a jury will convict someone who shot a cop.
