I'm really not understanding our justice system here.
One of these guys got life in prison. Okay. We could consider that 'fair' but let's face it they never actually killed anyone. Meanwhile people are getting crap like 12 year...15 years...for outright murder. Don't mistake this for sympathy for the T.O.18...I'm just not understanding why they're getting life, but actual murderers are getting equivalent of a dog's life in prison.
Conspiracy to commit acts of terrorism, and in my eyes TREASON against Canada, I think they are getting off lucky myself.
Life sentence to the leader, guess what, double credit for time served, he's eligable for parole in 12 years.
The other guy that got 12 years, double credit for time served, he's eligable in 6.5 years.
I know they didn't kill anyone, but I don't doubt they would have went through with it had they not been caught.
As far as murder goes, we are tooo leinient on them as well, same with rapists, child molesters, and all sorts of other violent offenders.
The great farce of Canadian justice
