I agree with almost everything you said about the cops! Only that

"I feel bad for the cops who are victims of bad stoners"

I am throwing a guess out when I say, I am sure that this is far more than some stoners, who smoked a few fat one's, this is no doubt a gang related killing, we will hear much more about this story!

And BTW....I don't want this to turn into a debate about Canada but.... You said...

"In the US if you have a decent salaried position, you'll get health care through your employer"

Canadian employers give you health & dental here as well! You just don't need a salaried position! Check your facts and I will be happy to come debate Canada, it is a great country to live in! And smoke some great weed! So before you all come down on Canada come down to Canada, smoke a joint and stop knocking my country!

Canada is a peace lovin country....get over it!
