Canadians can not be trusted with guns,,,,, or beer cans.

For the welfare off all Canadians it would be prudent to require all
Canook's to use paper caps for all drinks while visiting American
ports.

I'm sure for the good of all Canadians...... can's will soon be
outlawed in Canada. Just to be safe they should change to name of
Canada to Styroaduh.


'It was the worst thing I've ever done in my life'
Sailor who injured another calls assault 'disgusting'
By CHRIS LAMBIE Staff Reporter


A Halifax sailor who threw a full can of beer that caused severe damage
to a shipmate's eye told a court martial Friday he feels horrible
about the deed.

Master Seaman Richard Edward Leblanc, 35, pleaded guilty to assaulting
Leading Seaman Robin Lindhorst on Nov. 20, 2004, while their frigate,
HMCS Halifax, was docked in Norfolk, Va.

The beer can hit the victim in the head, breaking his glasses and
lodging a piece of glass in his right eye.

"It was the worst thing I've ever done in my life," Master Seaman
Leblanc said Friday.

". . . It was just disgusting."

Cmdr. Peter Lamont handed Master Seaman Leblanc a two-week suspended
sentence for the assault and for fighting with another shipmate that
same night.

"It is important that the court impose the least-severe punishment that
will maintain discipline," said the military judge.

Master Seaman Leblanc was a naval electronics sensor operator aboard
HMCS Halifax at the time of the assault.

He went out with friends on Nov. 19, 2004, returning to the ship around
2 a.m. the next day.

"There is no suggestion that he was intoxicated," said defence lawyer
David Bright.

Master Seaman Leblanc was in the junior ranks' mess when another
sailor made a comment to one of the cooks about the quality of food on
the ship.

Another cook, Master Seaman Donald Martin, took offence to the remark
and the two started arguing.

"This argument went on for some time and Master Seaman Leblanc
attempted to stop the confrontation," said Maj. Steve Richards, the
military prosecutor.

Leading Seaman Lindhorst was sitting next to Master Seaman Martin at
the time, but he played no role in the argument.

As the dispute continued, Master Seaman Leblanc picked up a full,
unopened car of beer and threw it in their direction from about two
metres away. Then he and Master Seaman Martin rushed toward each other
and began to fight.

Several other sailors pulled them apart after a moment.

The physician's assistant on the ship later removed a piece of glass
from Leading Seaman Lindhorst's eye. The injured sailor was
transported by ambulance to a Norfolk hospital, where he underwent
surgery.

Shortly after that, he was transferred to Halifax, where a surgeon
removed the lens and cornea from his right eye to reattach the retina
and to transplant a cornea.

Since the assault, Leading Seaman Lindhorst has not been able to sail
with his ship for medical reasons. Last month, surgeons performed a
second cornea transplant on the same eye.

It's still unclear whether he'll be able to return to his former
duties, Maj. Richards said.

"At the least, it has caused considerable damage, pain and suffering to
an innocent sailor," the prosecutor said of Master Seaman's
Leblanc's actions.

At worst, throwing the beer can could end Leading Seaman Lindhorst's
military career, Maj. Richards said.

"It really goes beyond foolish or ill-advised," he said. "It's
dangerous and it's reckless."

Several sailors testified Master Seaman Leblanc's actions that night
were out of character.

"He's always very reliable," said Petty Officer 1st Class Duane
McNamara. "He's the type of person you can count on."

Master Seaman Leblanc is a "top-notch sailor," said Petty Officer 1st
Class Edward James.

"He's one of the most honest people that I've come across in my
career," Petty Officer James said. "His integrity is second to none."

Master Seaman Leblanc threw the beer can at a bulkhead "without
thinking of the potential circumstances," Mr. Bright said.

"There was clearly no intention to hit Leading Seaman Lindhorst," said
the defence lawyer.

Master Seaman Leblanc, who holds the Southwest Asia Service Medal and
the NATO Special Services Medal, is a married father of three who has
been in the navy for nearly a decade.

He earns $62,232 a year and now works at Stadacona's Canadian Forces
Naval Operations School.

Master Seaman Martin was fined $500 at an earlier summary trial for his
role in the November 2004 tussle.

Canadians are limp-wristed sissies. Remember Capt. Mooron? He let a skinny little

him kicked off Usenet. Then he cried about it publicly here. No real man would allow

Yes, that was a terrible accident. Getting broken glass stuck in your eyeball.
I would have felt real bad about that too. Some jerk threw a beer can out of his
car window last year and hit one of my friends when we were riding our bikes.
She was wearing her helmet and it hit her right on her temple. Knocked her right
off her bike. She almost had a concussion...

Fun and jokes aside, I really respect a country that pays its military a
living wage. Many of our troops collect welfare. The defense contractors
grow rich and our poor guys in the trenches barely subside. They can't even
afford to buy the equipment the gov fails to supply. VA hospitals are a
joke. You'll die waiting to get into one. If the troop pay was raised I
would bet there would be less wars.

There may be truth in that. It is only in the last few years that our
boys have started to get a decent wage. In the past we have had too many
cases of enlisted men and even lower NCO's having to visit the food bank
to make ends meet. Of course we were quite happy to pay a Colonel
$90,000 per annum while reimbursing a private with a wife and and a
couple of kids $14,000, doesn't make much sense when you look at who is
actually at the business end of conflict.

Burglars here are very rarely armed.

I think you'll find that far more kids are shot than burglars in the
US.

I think you'll find that far more kids are shot than burglars in the
US.


Every day. They are called gangsta thugs, and they range in age from about
11 through 21. And the anti-gun studies call them all "children." The
intent of such studies is to make the uninformed believed that innocent
little kids get shot with regularity by their equally innocent little pals
playing with daddy's gun. Of course people like you do nothing to dispel
the myth. To the contrary you are more than happy to propagate it.
