I hope his father had some kind of life insurance which have kicked in. Perhaps that is part of his decision... who knows.

I don't think many people who would do that. Or maybe i'm wrong and most people would? | 542k less 266k is a nice Range Rover. I can think of 1 family who maybe selling theirs on fire sale.

Ok, here I am talking about ethnicity yet again...
Pretty sure Andy Le and his family killed were Vietnamese, not sure what all these anecdotal stories about Filipinos are proving?
Seems like a good chunk of the victims at least 8/11 ( at least described in the Media) were non-Filipinos (Viets, Brazilians, Colombians, Whites, etc.) People changing their profile pics of themselves with Philippine Flags, makes no sense....at least now when we have more info on the victims.

My position is that I find it funny that Eby is so angry with this situation while the pathetic system is what created this whole thing. Then literally minutes later the same system that enabled this to happen is almost certainly going to get this guy off.
I’m so angry at this problem me and my people let fester! Grrrr
By the way, please don’t forget this not the first time Eby has been “so angry” with heinous crimes. The only difference is they’ve gotten progressively worse since he was “so angry” before lol..

The caring and compassionate, dare I say, progressive thing to do, is to get him on some prescription medication and release him. He's the victim here and the people he ran over are the oppressors.

Honestly I almost hope this guy gets off or is back in the public and someone ultimately kills him. Which is u likely but that seems like the only thing that will ever enact change in this society and even that I’m not confident would.
Solitary confinement for 50 years isn’t punishment enough for this guy.

For context, here is that Cons politician's baited question to Eby:
Milobar questioned why Eby and his caucus refuse to talk about other subjects before the courts while being so open and direct about Lo’s case.
When the opposition party questions the BC NDP about court cases, Milobar says the members are typically dismissed out of hand.
“If the premier is weighing in on issues like this so forcefully, has the premier and the attorney general now changed direction? And will ministers now be allowed to actually talk about very serious, critical issues going on in front of their ministries that are in front of the courts? Or is that right solely reserved for the premier to voice opinions?” Milobar asked.
Valid question, Cons have been asking for tough on crime legislation, Eby prob in the past dodged those ones but now Eby is so angry about this one. Valid but it was a political bait too. That's how politicians roll.

My GF was reading some of the donations on the GoFundMe and says to me "that website you post on donated money".
I then proceed to explain to her "Well, this guy Manic lost a bet to this other guy named Honda over the Canadian election, and Jagmeet Singh losing his seat. Honda didn't want the money so he told Manic to donate to one of the funds, and put Revscene as the name, cool huh?".
Man did I feel like a fucking loser explaining that
