for those who haven't read the woman's FB post, here is a clip:

"..were attacked on Saturday night by a group of 7-10+ middle eastern men, believed to be from Syria, aged 18-25"

Canada has a lot of issues at this moment, stemming in part from increased immigration in the last 3 years (causing housing issues, etc). This sort of event, "brown people beating up white women" could be a dangerous racial catalyst.

I hope this gets dealt with as a single incident, but given current affairs, I am not optimistic.

if quiet quitting is "doing your job", then wouldn't having a normal lunch break be "quiet starving"?

I write this as I am quietly constipated.

I'm kidding, this is the loudest shit I've had in weeks. The acoustics in here are fantastic.

Why is their song "Escaping" so hard to find?

Was that the sound of Putin unzipping?

I am appalled that people continue to not make headline (heh) puns about hairstyle issues at Barber Hill High School.

There are so many messed up things with this guy.

Judge: Why didn’t you inform Emergency Services to send an ambulance?

Defendant: That was the biggest mistake.

Really? Not calling them was? Your biggest mistake wasn't strangling her?

Also, they'd been dating for 1.5 years! She was just 15 years old and was dating a 21yo guy.

In some countries, that would be statuary rape. In Greece, it's 15. Things that make you go 'hmmmm'.

Lastly, she wanted him to convert to Christianity. Obviously their religions were already a problem for their relationship. If we take the testimony as factual (and I will), it seems like a pretty normal argument fed by high emotions and low maturity. Because hey, she's basically still a kid. Yeah, it wasn't a well handled argument, but he's 23, had known her for (at least) 1.5 years and went for physical violence to deal with the situation.

I don't see a problem with the verdict. He'll probably get parole in a decade or so, we'll see if the family gets revenge on him then.
