IF this was proposed in Canada
after the Trucker’s Convoy, a bill that would:
- grant civil immunity to people who decide to drive their cars into protesters who are blocking a road
- penalize local governments that interfere with efforts to stop riots (RCMP)
- prevents people accused of rioting from being bailed out of jail until after their first court appearance
- makes it a second-degree felony to destroy a plaque, memorial, painting, flag, or other structure commemorating historical people or events (like, say, The War Memorial or Terry Fox). That would make such actions punishable by up to a decade in prison.
- makes blocking a highway a felony offense and say…
- new felony crime of “aggravated rioting” that carries a sentence of up to 15 years in prison and a new crime of “mob intimidation.”
Good idea? Just curious…
