  1. Should be shot with roman candles at point blank range...........

     

    I've never been so busy in my life as I was last night....every possible kid was firing off fireworks...

     

    And why is it that everyone has a problem with people setting off fireworks safely in their backyards???

     

     

    :wallbash::wallbash::wallbash::wallbash::wallbash::wallbash::stretcher:

     

     

    i'm going to bed......

  2. I'm sorry I lumped all the cops together. Cops HERE will NOT come to a trespass complaint unless you have the bad guys or plate #'s and I don't blame them because they can't do anything after their long gone anyway.

     

    How do you pull someone over if you don't chase them? no wonder you got so many speeders up there. The cops here will chase you and pull you over for speeding, seat belts, and all kinds of stuff. Maybe your definition of "chase" is a little different than mine.

     

    In any case stop beating your head on the wall, it aint worth it.

     

    our idea of chase is a little different. Chase for me means High Speed Pursuit. Of course you have to speed up from a parked position to stop someone who goes speeding past you.

  3. Cops don't come to a trespass or theft of crops call on a farm, the landowner is expected to handle it themselves by asking the trespasser to leave or the thief to pay. When a trained cop confronts someone they don't leave the gun at home or in the car because they don't know what kind of lunatic they might be dealing with so why should a landowner be expected to confront people.

     

    Have you ever seen a cop hot after a bad guy? Some cops get so exited chasing a minor traffic offense they are dangerous, so when you put the same pressure on an untrained landowner you can expect this kind of thing.

     

    1) yes we do show up for trespassers and crop thefts

    2) we are not allowed to chase for traffic offences unless it's an impaired driver

     

    This :wallbash: causes me to do this...people think they know everything that police officers do but in reality they know a lot about nothing....

     

    anyway do we know if the land owner told them to leave? if he did and they refused they have the right to remove them from his property with as much force as necessary...look at bouncers.... however letting off a few rounds at them is a little much

  4. As mentioned previously where are these so called law enforcement officers on a daily basis. Considering the tax money we pour down their coffers we get very little in return. You almost never see them during the daily commute when it seems the idiots abound.

     

    Just my rant for the day

     

    Not sure if you've ever worked a shift as a Police Officer during rush hour......

     

    But i can tell you the reason you never see one during rush hour is because they're busy dealing with more important issues....peak time for priorty calls are from 10:00 AM to probably 0300 in the morning....

     

     

    the OPP have 7 officers a platoon in the Aurora Detachment covering the the 400, 404, 407 and 401....maybe that's why...there would be more but caledonia is demanding more officers

  5. Very sad combination: alcohol and speeding...

     

    Now that the driver has been drinking and driving, will the insurance company decline his coverage or not? What if he was a full G in the same circumstances: alcohol in blood but under the legal limit, what would the insurnace company do?

     

    I always found this fact confusing: for full G, one is still allowed to drive after having a small amount of alcohol in his blood, but if he's involved in an accident, "impaired driving" charges are possible.

     

     

    To answer everyone's questions, you can lay a charge 2 years after an investigation. This guy will most likely get dangerous driving causing death....as for his licence, he'll get driving contrary to conditions and because the Ministry takes alcohol related offences seriously he'll never get his licence again ....

     

    as for the "small amount of alcohol in his blood, but if he's involved in an accidence "impaired driving" charges are possible" you can be charged with impaired driving even if you don't blow over .08 as well as if you don't cause an accident....

  6. Hey Guys,

     

    So yesterday as I froze in Toronto Harbour, I decided that since pike season opened today in area 17 I'd head out. So I hit a few spots that I have been fishing for the last 20 years and I've noticed a slow decline in the quality and quantity of fish.

     

    This is the reason why. The Conestogo River is a fragile fishery which gets hammered by over fishing. When I hit my last spot, I parked and noticed 6 horse and buggies tied to a fence on one side of the river. In the hole across from me stood 13 Menonites who each had a line in the water and each person had a white bucket for their cull. Well, needless to say the spot yelded no fish. But this spot has been amazing for years. This was the only time I had ever been skunked here.

     

    Anyway, i've grown up on this river and have seen these same group of guys on the same stretch of the river with BUCKETS full of fish. They keep everything no matter what size or species...

     

    This frustrates me because the fishing in this river has become terrible and the only success i've had in recent years have been in this spot and with minnows. Lures are useless here lol....

     

    Just my thoughts...

  7. Hey guys, I'm just as fed up with little punks as everyone else...but the problem isn't the Youth Criminal Justice Act....it's not the police....it's the parents, or lack there of and it's the court system. In my opinion after working in the legal system as the idiot catcher and as a youth probation officer, it's the court system. The YCJA does work if it's used right, however in most jurisdictions the court system doesn't know how to properly implement them because there isn't a youth only court.

  8. Great news, and as others have said, so often we only hear bad things about our doctors and health care system. I dont think you mentioned the doctors involved, and would you care to share that with us? i can understand if you don't.

    thanks

     

     

    I did in another entry. The doctor was Dr. Murray from the Dermatology Wing (8th floor) at the Women's College Hospital. He was incredible....

     

    They actually called my dad this morning to see how he was doing and they sent a home care nurse over first thing in the morning to get his bandages changed

  9. Thanks guys...he was pretty nervous going in because it was serious enough that he didn't get a pre-op. The doctor was incredible. My dad worked at Grand River hospital for 25 years and had gotten to know most medical practitioners in the KW area. He has an opinion that all surgeons were pricks with no bedside manner....anyway this doctor was incredible. He takes 5 patients a day and operates on them all at the same time...

     

    This "new" procedure is pretty simple....they cut...then test the tissue and the way they examine it they can tell which way the cancer is spreading...then they cut again....and test and keep going until it's completely gone. My dad was impressed with the way he worked. He even invited me into the operating room and i watched a little bit. Blood guts and gore doesn't bother me but because I had an attachment to the person on the table i had to leave....plus the smell of burnt flesh got to me lol...

     

    They even set him up with a home care nurse who will go to his house twice a week to change his bandages.....

  10. Well, as most of the members here know, my dad has a pretty bad case of skin cancer and was told he needed to head to Toronto to get treatment.

     

    Well, after about a week we finally heard from the Hospital. He was given a surgery date of August 1st, but he was also added to the waiting list in case of a cancellation.

     

    Well, this morning at 8:30 I received a phone call to come pick up my parents because my father received a phone call to be in Toronto in 2 hours. So I did my best to get them there before then. My father underwent about 6 hours of surgery at the Women's College Hospital.

     

    After having about 1/8" deep x 6" diameter of skin removed from his forehead to his cheek bone....they successfully removed ALL of the cancer. The doctor said that he reviewed his file on the weekend and after about 5 minutes decided that the tumour that was growing in his skin was much too large to let grow until August.

     

    It must have been a miracle. All of your thoughts and prayers must have been heard.

     

    Thanks Guys,

  11. Got skunked again...... :wallbash:

     

     

    Now, i'm not sure what I doing wrong...poor timing....etc...but i went out the other day, picked up a trout rod and thought that I would give roe and berkley trout worms a try...nothin...

     

    Maybe it's just Bronte....

     

     

    So I think i'll try another river...

     

    Anyone have suggestions?
