Real brave coward. Now, we may not always agree with our City bylaws officers, and we of course recognize the fact they have an extremely difficult task. But that being said, they do deserve the protection of the people they serve. The individual in question, did assault her with a weapon, and will probably do it again. Don’t know much about the law, but one could imagine that this is an assault with a weapon. Not only that, but he is also costing the taxpayer money. If captured, maybe the person should be put to cleaning some concrete walls of graffiti. Failing that, there are a large number of CN and CP railway cars that could stand a good cleaning as well. Oh, I forgot, that would be against his rights as outlined in the Charter of Rights.
