A search on this guy on the CSO reveals a long list of charges and confirms that he is a career douche, not at all surprising.

I'm not sure it's appropriate to classify this individual as a racist, I suspect the root cause of his behaviour is a generally poor temperament combined with limited cognitive abilities.
While in this case his inability to reason was manifested as racism, I suspect that on any other day he could just as easily be classified as a homophobe, misogynist, etc.
I'm not about to write some sob story about how the man is a victim, but as a reasonable person, I find myself thinking that he does not genuinely hate other races, he just has difficulty functioning in society.
I would be far more concerned to see a level headed person saying racist things than someone throwing a childish tantrum.
Meh, perhaps even trips to the courthouse will help him understand.

Meh, perhaps even trips to the courthouse will help him understand. | A level-headed person is just more tactful about hiding his or her biases and prejudices. In some way, I feel sorry for the guy. I mean come on the guy filming him was a lawyer. Did he even stand a chance?
And I think you hit the nail on the head for saying his inability to reason and argue very likely resulted into his temper tantrum.

i mean it's not his fault he had voices in his head.
mental illness/addiction is a very deeply-rooted issues and I will do my best with empathy but it can be difficult.
Most of the racist shit online i see is said in jest/trolling. "you're bloody retarded" or ha,gayyy.gif doesn't mean the person behind the screen is homophobic/picks on mentally-retarded individuals.
to berate those hateful comments at an individual continuously is different.

FYI:
Causing disturbance, indecent exhibition, loitering, etc.
175. (1) Every one who
(a) not being in a dwelling-house, causes a disturbance in or near a public place,
(i) by fighting, screaming, shouting, swearing, singing or using insulting or obscene language,
(ii) by being drunk, or
(iii) by impeding or molesting other persons,
(b) openly exposes or exhibits an indecent exhibition in a public place,
(c) loiters in a public place and in any way obstructs persons who are in that place, or
(d) disturbs the peace and quiet of the occupants of a dwelling-house by discharging firearms or by other disorderly conduct in a public place or who, not being an occupant of a dwelling-house comprised in a particular building or structure, disturbs the peace and quiet of the occupants of a dwelling-house comprised in the building or structure by discharging firearms or by other disorderly conduct in any part of a building or structure to which, at the time of such conduct, the occupants of two or more dwelling-houses comprised in the building or structure have access as of right or by invitation, express or implied,
is guilty of an offence punishable on summary conviction.
But do feel free to softly serenade me. Britney Spears is a guilty pleasure of mine. | It's a little misleading look at this statute alone without understanding how it's applied.
Each one of those listed acts alone won't result in a charge. Those acts actually have to have a foreseeable outcome of causing a disturbance and indeed cause an overtly manifested disturbance. Merely being offended by a person's language or volume of their voice isn't sufficient enough to warrant a disturbance charge. Yelling and shouting after a Canucks game won't result in a disturbance but doing it at 3am in front an apartment building will.
The context of each situation is unique and must be looked at as a whole to really determine whether or not the accused has caused a disturbance. Looking at just the listed actions is truly misleading to the general public as it makes people think that simply yelling or swearing in public will/could result in a s.175 violation.

Could it be that he wasn't taught right because his parents were losers too? Most likely.
But let's face it. With 6+ billion people in the world, I can't cry for every one of their sad upbringings. Instead of feeling sorry for this clown, why not praise those who made a change in their life?
My parents were being terrorized by a homeless man last year who was breaking into their cars, and then their house to get money for his fix. I put an investigator on him who found out who he was. I followed him on facebook (fucking millenials.....) and traced his history of theft and assault through Ontario, to Victoria, to the forest near my parent's place. It was another sad story of a kid who had no father, and whose mother was a loser. But honestly, fuck that guy for terrorizing my parents. They didn't cheat or steal. Instead they worked hard to achieve some level of wealth. Fuck him for continuing to make bad decisions that affected good people.
For the record, the guy is spending 24 months in a federal pen for attacking the cop who went in to arrest him. Also, the B&E stuff, as his history of bad decisions continues.

Lol i have no sympathy whatsoever for people who make poor choices especially those who fuck up others' lives. I don't give a fuck how shitty your upbringing was. You play with the cards you're dealt. If you can't handle it, an hero. Vita continuat.
For every moron in this country that uses their shitty upbringing and environment as an excuse for their shitty actions and shitty life, there's a kid out there who would give anything to even have a quarter or a tiny sliver of the opportunities that these morons throw away.

It still took the RCMP 2 weeks to catch the guy, at which time we were watching his moves on FB and on the security cameras set up by the neighbourhood watch. By then the local newspapers had picked up on the story. The guy was like a coyote in that he had a couple different places to hide out. When the RCMP finally caught up with him, it was in a house under construction. There was the struggle, and they took him down.
They sure kicked things into high gear when he posted an FB pic of him with a gun that he had taken in a different B&E.

Close to the end of his line, the media pulled a couple pics from his FB and put them in the paper. That's when he changed his privacy settings! Quote:

No ragrets guy is dreamy. Our littlest hobo looked a little, off..... almost like a fetal alcohol child who was all grown up.
I would post a pic, but RS is big and he still has a lot of friends on the outside who have nothing to lose.
One thing that shocked me was how many pretty girls he had on his FB who were supporting him. Granted, they were from Surrey and Maple Ridge. Not the highest quality poon one can find, but nice poon nonetheless. |
