Police identify suspect in violent Bridle Path home invasion

Does that give them the right to prey on others? How would you feel if they did this to you?

We need to take a page out of El Salvador's playbook.

So essentially you're saying it's okay to have less cops because a construction company pays them more than the city to work for them? Curious. Disregarding the fact that the city gives these construction companies the contracts so they're getting paid by the city regardless? Very curious

You would be fired in less than 4 days if you were scheduling the police force. The above comments tells us you have no clue how to run that kind of a job.

These rich folks should hire private security. Otherwise I dunno...maybe move outta Canada? Or be stupid and not have working security cameras inside your property. Not like that hasn't happened.

You don’t feel sorry for those who have to rely on crime for survival?

This is why it is important to consider mitigating factors.

Research shows that the media is bias against offenders who are white males. For example, when a white male commits mass murder they are quickly labeled as a lone wolf and mental ill.

And I don’t know what the statistics are, but robberies and home invasions occur in poor neighbourhoods. However, they are not taken seriously by police due to racial profiling and discrimination.

Crimes involving racial minorities receive more media attention, specifically from the “far right.”

If you were struggling to survive, you would result to crime too.

Nobody has to rely on crime to survive In Canada, Ample opportunities exist for self-improvement including some government sponsored programs.Canada has a very large social safety net and nobody is starving.
A life on social assistance is not great but the basic necessities of free food and shelter are provided.
Actually, social services exist so that impoverished people do not have to rob people to survive.
I am not saying that Daijohn is on social assistance, but I wouldn’t be surprised if he is .
This guy has a criminal and is infected with recidivism

I do believe most mass murderers, who by the way are usually white, are mentally ill, and usually lone wolfs. It's rarely otherwise, for reasons of which I don't have a clue. No sympathy for those guys!

Of course I feel sorry for people who have to rely on crime for survival.

I understand that it is tough for some minorities to get a proper education, or develop a skill that might get them hired at full-time jobs, especially in these difficult times.

It's even tough for my white Jewish daughter, who had a private school education. And yet I have to augment her hard-earned income, even though she is in her early 30's, or she would be homeless.
And I know not every person has a parent who can provide that kind of financial support. I did, however, recently read that 60% of parents are still helping out their kids financially, even into their 30's.

I understand why some ethnicities join gangs to have a feeling of family, support, and, unfortunately, often partners in crime.

But I cannot excuse for any reason violent crimes where innocent victims get hurt, mentally and/or physically, just because that's an easy way to a quick score.

Some say "victimless crimes", such as drug dealing are an alternative to violent crimes, but are they really victimless?

White collar fraud is probably rampant, but there are people who are harmed badly there as well, usually financially.

At least reasonably attractive females have the option of sex work, which to me is about as victimless as you can hope for, unless, of course, you consider the sex worker herself to be a victim of circumstance. And I assume it takes a certain mindset for a woman to be able to tolerate what she has to put up with in the profession.

Unskilled males, and many unskilled females, have it a lot harder. But most are able to get by without resorting to crime.

There are many people who will not take certain "service" or entry level jobs because they feel those jobs are "beneath them". But is crime a proper alternative?

Thise cops are paid by the construction project not the city. Nice try in trying to sway the discussion to anti cop.
