    Recently a Toronto resident was acquitted of murdering a cop, the city celebrated and the cops got pissed and expressed that they wished the man deemed innocent had gone to jail.

    Long story short, this man was getting his family back into their mini van to go home. Armed, plain clothes cops are looking for an unrelated suspect so of course they draw guns and run towards the innocent man with his family. The man panics, steps on the gas and escapes, running over the cop and killing him. He was then arrested for “intentionally killing an officer”, ignoring the fact that all the man saw was two armed men in plain clothes running towards him and his family

      Jesus fucking Christ! They’ve done everything short of spelling or a war declaration! Where I’m standing, the guy is extra innocent if he did actually do it.
