Canada Reducing The Sentences Of Indigenous Criminals

 

There is dumb and then there is Canadumb.

Last fall the National Post reported that “A Calgary judge knocked two years off a 10-year sentence she would have given a man who terrorized and repeatedly sexually assaulted a 12-year-old girl he met when he was 25 because the offender is Indigenous.” Indigenous people get a 20% discount off underage sex crimes? Even those who repeatedly assault 12-year-old girls?!

Apparently so. The Western Standard recently reported that a half-Indigenous man also received a reduced prison sentence from an Alberta judge for the crime of “major sexual assault.” Aaron Moore Minshull was convicted of same by an Edmonton jury, but, according to the report, the jury “believed he deserved a reduced sentence” due to the fact that his mother is Indigenous. Even though Minshull “had not been exposed to indigenous culture.” Half-Indigenous? Did Minshull only get a 10% discount?

Forget equal justice under the law, which never was much of a thing in Canada anyway, let’s go to progressive sentencing! Just like our tax systems! What could go wrong? Some years ago I wrote a piece satirically proposing a progressive wage rate based on race, sex, ethnicity, religion, etc., which would “achieve” much of what the tax system and income redistribution programs were put in place to do…just on the front end, not the back end. Reparations in a proactive form! Since Western nations are hell-bent on utterly destroying themselves, adopting progressive sentencing guidelines seems like a grand idea, too. For example, if someone is convicted of second-degree murder, the penalties could look something like this:

*White male—life in prison, no parole.

*Black male—10 years.

*White female—6 years.

*Mulatto transgender person—They would be sentenced to 2 years, with time off for good behavior.

*Indigenous person—18 months maximum.

*Transgender Indigenous Trump-hating person—3 months.

*Illegal alien—1 week, suspended sentence-- and optional 3 days of community service.

And so on. Much fairer to the marginalized and disenfranchised, right?

Hell-bent? Turns out, Western nations might just be hell-bound.
