As to your question on my statement, it's simple math. very few people in history exhibited behavior like Vince Li let alone in Canada. chances are my next door neighbor is just fine.
And to be clear I'm not worried he'll harm his new neighbor's, I'm worried for the total public, you, your family, my family hell even my enemy's.
Free after 8 years is complete BS.
PS, I answered your question but you didn't answer mine.
If a neighbors dog bit your child in the face would you let any of your kids near that dog? |
The fact you are equating Baker to a poorly trained dog is about as feeble as it gets.
So let me try to answer the yes or no question people (that's fake tv law by the way) as best I can.
I would prefer at all times to have the most safest low risk people living beside me as my neighbours.
Since that is imaginary, I will accept reality.
If I could choose my new neighbour, would I pick Baker? No. I would pick Bill Gates or my best friend or maybe Lanny McDonald...because they are interesting people. Not because of some false belief they are "safe". Do I have any flipping idea if any of those people are on the verge of a psychotic break? Nope. And neither do you.
So would I be okay if Baker was moving in next door tomorrow? I'd be apprehensive, not going to lie about it. But here's the thing. I've sat in rooms with paranoid schizophrenics, convicted murderers, strung out meth addicts, organized crime leaders, convicted child pornographers, fraud scammers, you name it. I can tell you two people in nearly 15 years that scared me. That's it.
Without exception I spoke to and dealt with each of those people as well people.
I would suck up my apprehensions and introduce myself to Baker. I wouldn't let my kids go play at his house but I don't let them do that with any neighbours. We would make him cookies and welcome him to the neighbourhood. I would pause and consider that over 400 Albertans die in car accidents every single year and I would stop thinking about catastrophic horrors that are never going to be remotely close to as likely to devastate my kids as a bad driver taking me out on my twice daily commute.
And Baker is not a dog and you know that was foolish.
