Any crime commited with violence or a weapon needs to be automatically no bail.
I don’t know… there are some self defence cases where the victim is charged for defending themselves.
Maybe repeating violent offenders should get no bail.
Or at least an ankle monitor…
So self defence is a crime that doesn’t serve bail? Your logic is half-baked.
Self defence isn’t a crime but you can’t get slapped and then beat the person within an inch of there lives or provoke violence and expect to claim self defence.
@Loni Stepan That’s not self defence then, so what are trying to prove right now?
And yes, self defence could involve a weapon if you’re disadvantaged in repelling force, as recognized by the *law* .
All criminals out on bail should be given a free bus pass to Ottawa Ontario.
Raise bail amounts for everybody.
No bail at all for any violent crimes.
Self defence is violent but not a crime. We also don’t use cash bail for most offences in Canada.
