Canadian police warn that posting videos of alleged package thieves could be ‘violation' of their privacy
A provincial police officer, Lt. Benoit Richard warned Canadian citizens against posting video footage of alleged porch thefts, because it could violate the thieves' privacy.
So trespassers and thieves have an expectation of privacy when trespassing and stealing.
Damn, Canada. You aren't long for this world as a coherent society. Unfortunately, we're right behind you in our own special handbasket to hell.
Go full shariah and start chopping their hands off. Just say you’re a goatfucker and they will look the other way. Probably get a “soooory eh!”
Aid and abetting criminals in my view. Lousy justice systems all over the world promoting crime.
Unless you're a trucker exercising free assembly, or a reverend leading his flock in worship.
Privacy to steal your stuff from your porch? Huh??
I am not quite sure what his point is. You would just be posting a video of your yard with someone in it. OK, you might need to put up a sign saying "Warning: CCTV in Operation" but other than that? Who said they were guilty of anything?
That's what I got from it. Putting up a video of someone doing something illegal on your property is not the same as them being put on trial.
I have a suspicious mind and I've met a few interesting cops in my time. My first thought was that someone on the force is either stealing packages themselves, or they've set up some sort of ring of thieves and they're afraid that video evidence will lead back to them.
Thats not even true. This guy clearly doesn't know whathe's talking about.
I genuinely feel bad for the +/- 5% of Canadians that have a functioning brain. It must be living hell to be surrounded by that much mental deficiency all the time
Canada fell at covid
It was long before that.
I do know that if some kind of criminal altercation happens, here in Canada and you have it on your phone or CCTV and you go online with it before the outcome of the trial, you pretty much lose all credibility in court ; this from a life long friend who is also a cop.
However, there is no problem if gas stations / stores post videos of thieves on their socials so...
Canada needs to triple down on this horse shit.
What an absolute moronic thing to say. Theybare only hiring fucking idiots on purpose.
Idiots & morons are the easiest to control & direct. imo
