This isn’t funny, though this is a strangely compelling string.
Herb, if you have a story to tell regarding your bizarre post, please get on with it. Maybe good will come of it. If not, you are anonymous anyway.
Canatedian, you have told a violent story in a funny way, but it is still a violent story.
Two honest questions to gauge life and justice in Fernie:
1) Imagine that a 18 year old local male (family roots trace back 3 generations) tries to show that he is a bad-ass by randomly keying your car. Your friend saw him do it, and informs you. Do you call the RCMP; call his parents; call him to sort out compensation; or, beat him up (alone or with a group).
2) Same question, but the 18 year old is a seasonal tourist from Europe or Australia.
In my dicey Toronto neighbourhood, it would be cop first, and there would be no difference whether the was fixed or transient in residence (though I suppose that if I was part of a street gang, the approach would change.)
How is the same situation handled in Fernie?
