"On Tuesday, two murder suspects from California sped toward the Canada-U.S. border at the Peace Arch crossing. They were armed with a submachine gun and a 9-mm pistol."
"As the drama unfolded, with a horde of U.S. law enforcement officers in hot pursuit, Canadian border guards abandoned their posts. Why? They were unarmed."
"Under Canada’s labour code, they were within their rights to invoke a safe work environment. In those circumstances, that meant getting out of the way of desperate, gun-packing criminals."
"What a sorry blight on Canada’s image."
"It’s hard to fault the border officers. It makes little sense to place oneself in the path of an armed felon with little for defence beyond pepper spray and a baton. ..." ...

Submitter's Note: Of course that is exactly the situation that the vast majority of Canadian citizens face every day, without the luxury of 'abandoning their posts'. |

| How can you call these guys "Border Guards"? It seem that anyone can cross the Canadan border anytime they want and carry across anything they want (drugs,guns,ect.) without anyone stopping them! And those a$$holes in the Canadian govenment got the gall to claim that their high gun crimes is the U.S. fault! THESE GUYS ARE JUST AS STUPID AS JIM AND SARA BRADY! |
