Dear Editor,
Re: “No jail or fines for YVR climate protesters,” Online, Sept. 23.
Although she accepted Crown’s argument the protesters are not “ordinary first offenders” since they “‘made a conscious decision to commit the offense,’ (Judge Bonnie) Craig said she did not believe imprisonment or fines were necessary to achieve the goals of denunciation and deterrence.”
So, as a citizen with a clean criminal record, are they suggesting if I were to go and put these protesters in a hospital with full intent, I would not be morally blameworthy?
