CTV: Officer to stand trial for death of Bony Jean-Pierre {2018-Jul-18}
« During the raid Bony attempted to jump from a balcony, and in the process was shot in the head with a rubber bullet. He died several days later in hospital. »

That's funny, i was under the impression it's precisely because he couldn't jump the guy got directly hit to the head at unsafe distance, which caused this French-Speaking haïti immigrant to fall off the window instead of really "jump", as the title appears to put it...

Some more highlight on the career of SPVM-GTi agent Christian Gilbert would have proved most relevant as he happens to be a special weapons specialist with over 10 years of practice... Hence i gather he couldn't reasonably pretend not being aware of the manufacturer's non-ambiguous instructions NOT to aim for the head of a living person located at some unsafe distance, 20 meters i think, or something to this effect.

The scenery i remembered was more like the "ballistic" plastic bullet hit Bony Jean-Pierre after he showed up in the visor of this SPVM-GTi expert, patiently awaiting for his target to pop up between the 4 solid sides of a window frame with nowhere to go further - e.g. in a stalled state i presume... So that's more like a legacy game called "Duck Hunt" i figure. In any case it was the very first time the cannabis enthousiast in me really noticed slogans as "black lives matter", which in a Montrealer context was relatively novel in 2016 if i'm not mistaking, though i was already aware our Victorian-age bigot anti-cannabic prohibitionist laws basically induce severe discriminatory effects - and not just with "blacks" for that matter. Ultimately the problem boils down to police and law enforcement, briefly put justifications as futile as this drug bust to excuse deadly interference over such minute amount of dry cannabis sounds grotesque if not shocking.

Unfortunately, who remembers? Or even care: it's aleady old news anyway!... 🕸

...

Worse, very recently Québec's pm mister François Legault showed great care NOT to agree that our public institutions are effectively racist in a systemic sense. IMO François should have been quick to acknowledge the dynamics in presence, on the contrary, as i'm confident prejudice to minorities is easy to demonstrate via mesurable statistics. But if a pm won't use them then why should i bother!

Nonetheless i find his strategy in these matters match his raising of the legal age from 18 to 21: more flat-earth stuff called "science"...

Euh...

The way i understood it a para-military group of police agents waited for April foul's day on 2016 to raid a Montréal-Nord place where slightly over a dozen guys had gathered (UNGASS 2016 took place in new York ~3 weeks later).

The police havest proved slim as they could hardly manage to collect ~8 oz of dry herb by emptying all pockets, except those of Bony Jean-Pierre's who by the way wasn't even armed before his body fell unconcious to the ground.

Quite frankly i wish there were more relevant testimonies published in english, to reach a much wider audience, while the best i can do is to refer to alternate information sources as "The C.R.A.P.", publisher of these texts mostly written in french:

"Persons who died following a police intervention in Montreal"​
Bony Jean-Pierre, 46, d. le 4 avril 2016​
Mourir d’une bavure policière à Montréal-Nord

Justin Trudeau may have forgotten the insistance with which he once attempted to put distance between his party line and a risk of "bannalization" depicted by his political adversaries pretending he's a "pot-head"... So, basically this justified installed mandarins of "ADDICTION MEDECINE" (on cannabis...) to commit even more damaging excess via law enforcement, retro-active landlord privileges granting cannabis-related evictions for example, etc. Well i recall only a few weeks before this tragic police "mishap" our canuck prime minister was prompting law enforcement agents of all police bodies to "do their job" - that's how i perceived this other police brutality story anyway.

So they did resume their prefered form of "law enforcement" activities, mass media reporting the "incident" as a riot serving thieves and anarchists, essentially. Even today it's extraordinary to hear of the social crisis going on down south and none of those reporting local manifestations in Montréal will remember Bony Jean-Pierre who died because of racial profiling by police + systemic discrimination engraved deep into our obsolete anti-cannabic laws. The mere fact that CBD cannabis still ain't completely removed from the "schedule" says a lot on the degree of ideological reasoning our society is currently facing. Shame on those aware of this striking confirmation that a Black Lives Matter movement *IS* actually NECESSARY and won't speak up. In other words USA ain't alone and i find hypocrite at best to avoid refering to documented evidence showing we got a few justice issues of our own around here.

And now that the legal age has been raised to 21 we can expect even more disproportionate statistical representation of visible (possibly also french-speaking...) minorities in Québec's penal system. Meanwhile in Calgary/Alberta, home of Janey Canuck (...), it's now "legal" to buy jetable (70~ doses) oil e-Cigs that Québekers can't access even through the SQdC monopoly. One other funny thing about it is that i think it's produced on Québec territory... Never mind align the dots, the wrong actions serving the wrong agendas can't be expected to serve society well, much less In The Name Of Children.

Good day, have fun!! ☮

Quebec is fundamentally racist with its head covering restrictions against Muslims and Sikhs, and language laws preventing authentic ethnic messages from being boldly displayed over small shops instead of approved French language signs.

It has achieved this oppressive regime after a long struggle which included terrorism (FLQ), and has held the rest of the country hostage for decades until it achieved it's special status.

It is the model of what we should not become: idealized mono-culture.
