The trial heard that Boushie was shot in the head while he was sitting in an SUV that had been driven onto Stanley’s farm near Biggar, Sask.
The driver of the SUV testified the group had been drinking during the day and tried to break into a truck on a neighbouring farm, but went to the Stanley property in search of help with a flat tire.
Stanley’s son testified that he and his father heard an ATV start up and they thought it was being stolen.
Stanley testified that he fired warning shots to scare the group off. He said that the fatal shot occurred when he reached into the SUV to grab the keys and his gun “just went off.”
They admitted they lied to investigators about stealing and changed their stories right before taking the witness stand.
> My warning shots didn't scare them away so I decided to take their car keys out of their SUV's ignition to scare them they off
Cases like this must be why Liberals think guns just go off by themselves and shot people all the time.
Canada is like California, less people know about guns the more they think they just go off by themselves like say when you drop a Glock with a 10pd draw on the ground and it kills a women because that's a thing guns do nowadays.
There's got to be more to the story, Castle doctrine type stuff doesn't usually apply when you purposefullyput yourself in that situation ala Bernhard Goetz
of course that's New York but you'd think that'd be close to Canada
defendant's subjective belief that he is in imminent danger does not by itself justify the use of deadly force
Prostitute leaves without servicing him (with his 150$ in her pocket) in her pimp's car. Dude breaks out an AK, sprays the car. Hits her in the spine (so that she spends months on a respirator before her family decides to pull the plug).
But then he's not guilty because prostitution is illegal (plus she didn't put ouy) so she was stealing his money, it was at night (special law for nighttime theft), and he wanted to recover his property.
His defense included "I was aiming for the tires to stop the car".
The only way it would get better would be to add a Pakistani tribal law kind of clause to the verdict. Like he gets to rape the whore's daughter or sister because she failed to service him.
I'm not surprised Canadians have continued their history of wiping out the Indians so efficiently their White people have the stuipidiy to act like Americans treat ours bad.
Depends like how much value is there in Human life? People don't give a fuck about starving children in Africa and people give less fuck about people trying steal their shit.

How did Bernie Goetz purposefully put himself in that position? My understanding was that he was riding the subway, and when a group of black guys asked him for $5, he didn't wait for it to turn into a mugging before shooting then.
I had a feeling that would be Death Wish. Except that the subway car with Goetz wasn't empty. He got on and then they surrounded him and blocked him off from the other passengers.
I don't recall the case against him being that he put himself in that position either. They mainly brought up that the gun wasn't legally possessed by him, he started shooting after they isolated him but before it was definitely a mugging, and he shot one guy a second time even though he wasn't a threat by that point.
I would expect not guilty for murder in the US too. Situations like this are what manslaughter charges are for. The prosecution decided to pursue murder charges for purely political reasons and it backfired.
I know it’s pretty standard to refer to the young men who end up getting shot in situations like these as “just a kid” and use phrases like “the family lost a child” but Coulton was 22. That’s really pushing it.
I mean he looks 17 in the picture chosen to represent him sympathetically. Likewise I’m sure there are others out there that would paint him equally unfairly resembling a young Danny Trejo. Personally I would have went with this.
The Taurus Judge is a five shot revolver designed and produced by Taurus International, chambered for .410 bore shot shells and the .45 Colt cartridge. Taurus promotes the Judge as a self-defense tool against carjacking and for home protection.
Powerful guns have long barrels because it increases the amount of time the exploded gas from the gunpowder is pushing on the bullet/shot which makes them go faster.
Bestgunnit is the only place willing to spread the knowledge when it comes to the devil's cartridge. Salute their bravery, salute their dedication, salute their autism.
Outside of a very few bad types of firearm design, the "just went off" defense would never fly in places where people actually own guns, unless they were doing their own version of jury nullification. I have a CCW and its on me at all times, usually in a pocket, precisely because guns don't just "go off" unless its a Brazilian local market Torus or a few very rare defects which usually require specific circumstances for it to happen.
Sig is trying to bring social justice to the gun market. Now you can own a swiss crafted expensive handgun that randomly discharges as well as a 200$ Taurus.
I have that model sig, p320, you need to drop it backwards on a hard surface. I was thinking of mentioning that one but its too esoteric. Of course the idiots in California used that on the p239 Illegal case, but I think that too was more jury nullification than just being insanely stupid.
Didn't say it didn't suck, just thats its an unlikely reason for accidentally shooting someone else. Being shot by a defective p320 (I still gotta send mine to to be fixed for that matter) would be easy to show because it could only fire one way, from the ground, at an angle up.
If I was a jigaboo (or his jew lawyer), I'd fiddle with a bunch of HiPoints so that they discharge for little to no reason, then spread them around in the streets. That way you can always go for reasonable doubt when you shoot someone with one of those ("I was merely drawing the gun out and it discharged...").
People accidentally fire guns all the fucking time dude. I don't understand this new guntard meme at all. It's definitely a thing that happens, mostly to dumbasses, but it happens to people that are well trained and responsible too. It's 100% plausible that some kid accidentally squeezed the trigger.
Negligent discharge is not "it just went off". I had an ND at the range once and since I was following normal procedure it was safe but I still had to pull the trigger.
Looking a bit into the case, it appears the defense was claiming that the shot was a hang fire, and that the magazine was removed and the chamber cleared. All of which is hypothetically possible, but strikes me as being extremely unlikely (to say nothing of the fact that it's pretty much the only explanation that would possibly make him not culpable for at least manslaughter, so it would be extremely convenient if it were to have happened that way).
Apparently the stock broke on it as well, which means it's kinda bizarre they went for something technical when "it got caught on one of the kids/something in the car" is way more plausible.
You can fire if there's no magazine in the pistol as well, but it demonstrates you were making an effort to ensure the gun was unloaded. Truthfully, I question if he did any of that in the first place, but it was being used by the defense to show he wasn't intending to shoot anyone.
I mean clearing the chamber is necessary and sufficient to make a weapon safe (even with a mag inside, if you're not touching anything it's not going to feed a round and fire).
That dude must thank God every day that he got a bunch of inbreds on his jury.
history is going to remember this canook as the turning point, when canadians turned from being normal, decent men to weak, self-hating limp-wristed faggots
Or the point where they decided to go full fash. And a century our children's children (living under Canadian rule) will learn about how they got pissed off and went hockey-riot on the whole world.
I had to read like 20 articles about this to get something approaching the full story. Sounds like everyone in the SUV and the farmer were all scumbags.
Radical centrism proves to be superior to everything else once again.

They were responsible for 95% of our thefts and it was a pain in the ass to call the cops every single time, pull up the camera footage, give a statement etc. I do have to give an honorable mention to the elderly pajeet that somehow managed to sneak a 60 pounder of Bombay Sapphire out the door.
