      Seems to me that entrapment is illegal. Notice the cops sent in a pretty girl, no Griselda type. The guys were probably embellishing some and then maybe not. Since we aren’t allowed to hear the details in the courtroom, the public is deprived of the evidence presented. Free country eh?

          Says the BLM supporter, give up you’ve got nothing on the real world!

            Knowing a thing or two about human nature, it's not a stretch to believe that these young men were trying to leverage their 15 minutes of fame for all it was worth.

              Very very stupid. But then they brought guns. Dumb then beyond dumber. They're gonna have to pay for that.

                Spot on description of the Coutts border blockade organizers and the sheepies who followed.

                "Kooks" was also a good analogy.

                  Huh? last time you said they were " just trying to impress a girl".

                  One said there was "going to be a war" and he needed guns.

                  And unless there is a publication ban, court hearings are covered by journalists and the public can sit in on trials.

                  And the jury gets to hear the whole case before making a decision.

                    Trials are supposed to be open to the public but this one? Is it open to public? Or Tamara Lich’s trial - or Chris Barber’s trial? If trials are closed and transcripts suppressed we have a gargantuan problem in this country.

                      Impressing the girl is the leverage I was referring to.
