Speaking generally, the assistant commissioner said that if a member is charged with a serious offence, that person could be suspended without pay.

Before a certain @#$! wad comes charging on here with his pathetic anti-police rant, the murder was committed while off duty. Police officers are not the only professionals who have killed loved ones or others. Are these individuals below any different? They were in positions of great respsonsibility and trust too!

Not even one of those articles were about a civil servant, let alone a cop, so what is your point?
Everyone that commits murder is "someone", the point is that they are not supposed to be a cop.

[Moose47]

My point is that anyone is capable of murder under the right circumstances, so why are cops any different. They are only human after all. At least that's what my Sergeant told me while with the Military Police.

What does your Sergeant say about CFB Trenton commander Col. Russell Williams?

[Moose47]

<<<What does your Sergeant say about CFB Trenton commander Col. Russell Williams?>>>

Well, actually nothing as he was killed! He would have said that Williams is one fucked up individual and there is nothing that can defend his actions

[iflyforpie]

So? What's your point? He murdered, he was arrested, and he will be suspended without pay if charged (not even convicted). The punishment fits the crime IMHO.

I didn't realize that the RCMP were supposed to be superhumans that are incapable of murdering people.

Dude... really... dude...

They don't need to be superhuman, but they sure as @#$! shouldn't be murderers... give your head a shake.

Well said! They get background checks, psy tests, self control training, etc...
But IQ test were dropped a while ago. And it shows...

Given the right circumstances anyone in their right mind could justify killing another human being.

It doesn't matter if you are a cop, priest, sociopath, average joe, etc.

None of us are exempt.

Hmmmm... I would say:

Given the right circumstances, anyone in their "wrong" mind could "unjustly" kill another human being.

It doesn't matter who you are.

None of us are exempt.

I never said that it would be just to all members of society.

That said, a lot of people would probably be able to justify killing a person if they harmed a love one (killed, raped, etc). A lot of people could justify killing a person as a capital offense.

A lot of people could justify killing someone if it meant saving lives (assassinating hitler).

That is why we have varying degrees of murder.

DUDE!!


Give your head a shake! The individual wasn't a murderer when he signed on with the RCMP.

Good God, how many times have we seen people go on a rampage and the universal statement by people who knew the said individual is "he/she seemed like such a nice individual" or "I simply can't believe they would be capable of doing that." Tests can be defeated and training is only as good as the person using it.

So here's a challenge for you JAC. Since people well above your pay grade have done such an awful job, come up with a system that has a 100% guarantee that no potential murderers get recruited by the RCMP.

I will 100% guarantee that it cannot be done. Period.

So? What's your point? He murdered, he was arrested, and he will be suspended without pay if charged (not even convicted).

Actually, according to the news, suspended WITH pay after being arrested.

Edited to add: arrested and charged with second degree murder.

He has been suspended with pay, said RCMP Sgt. Tim Taniguchi, but a review process will look into the possibility of suspending him without pay.

Okay, that is BS. (Not untruth, un-bloody believable!)

[crazy_aviator]

its possible that an officer has to be a mass-murderer, or a mass rapist, or something like that to be suspended WITHOUT pay,,, Remember, a cop is presumed innocent , until found a wee bit guilty in the forgetful future, wherein citizens have forgotten!!!

So true, in fact on the RCMP recruitment site, they state that if you have been charged with murder, fraud, robbery, etc. it "may" affect your eligibility.

[. ._]

Man, the more and more I think about it, I should apply to the RCMP.

I really like this notion of being suspended with pay. I'm pretty sure if I try hard enough, I could mess up and get some sweet paid time off!

Normally when I mess up, I just get fired.

The generation and demographic I am part of, learned to battle the burning desire to turn one's spouse into a pile of bloody rags, ruptured flesh & splintered bone. See, we were taught that females were
never to be physically abused, much less murdered. If you were going through a messy divorce and wanted to kill someone..sackup and kill yourself. Otherwise, STFU and sit down.
I guess the fact that the perp is Sikh (shame/honour culture)+ forced/arranged marriage = celebration of “Asian” Culture in Canada? It’d be insensitive to view it any other way.

[crazy_aviator]

Doesnt anyone see the connection between the immigration of different "cultures and different beliefs" and an erosion of society and social, moral, and ethical standards?

It is obvious!!!
Honour killings, bribes, nepotism, are all imported...

[crazy_aviator]

THEN why dont canadians stand up and say ENOUGH is ENOUGH ! This politically correct, supersensitivity to offending any culture or minority is ruining my country !! WE ARE IMPORTING our own destruction !!!

Like most organizations of the Western World the Mounties are continually suffering from PCitis. Anyone familiar with a purple or red pass card app, knows how extensive the back round check is. “Your father-in-law died 3 years ago... we need the details..” 2 years before applying to the RCMP, this guy enters into an arranged/forced marriage and he gets a green light? I think it happens all the time.
I have female in-law, who is an OPP constable. She is 5’8”, 110 lbs. She really does need a gun.
