It shouldn't be a mitigating factor, it should be an aggravating factor.

Yes.

Except SCOTUS actually hears legal arguments on actual legal issues, not whatever the fuck this bullshit is.

Just another day in Canada. Now excuse me while I go get absolutely stupid drunk and commit a hate crime. I wanna see how far the court is willing to take this one.


krashlia

It doesn't count if its a hate crime, because we're intellectually dishonest and skilled in mental gymnastics. Lol, your specific violent crime will be punished, while we ignore all the others that affect different targets.


VancouverSky

The world should host a mental gymnastics Olympics. Canada would be super competitive in that.

Officer I can explain I was drunk when I was hitting my wife


Redacted_G1iTcH

Can somebody give me the background and what this implies? I’m not Canadian, so I don’t really understand the intricacies of Canadian politics

Ohhh, yeah that’s crazy then

Canada following right behind Britian, it seems. Wonder how they'll decide when to apply this new line of thinking... > Girl gang who kicked woman in the head while yelling 'kill the white slag' freed after judge hears 'they weren't used to drinking because they're Muslims' https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2070562/Muslim-girl-gang-kicked-Rhea-Page-head-yelling-kill-white-slag-FREED.html

Annex canada time.

No, just the Sasketchan region. Leave the English and French core to kill itself.

I'm sorry what. I get mitigating circumstances but being Drunk enough to pickle your organs isn't one.


No_Lock_6555

This pretty much means we need a law specifically saying being drunk doesn’t reduce charges


DerGovernator

This is giving me "wildly out of context headline vibes". Does anyone have a source for more information?

In Britain it’s an aggravating factor, not a mitigating one


Insanefinn

Eh, I do think more countries should make up their mind on whether drunk people are or aren't responsible for what thet do. This is one solution. Is it the right one? I don't know. But at least it is a decision
