The Landlord and Tenant Board found the landlord’s conduct ‘deplorable,’ saying they clearly took advantage of a vulnerable tenant.

    maybe it’s easier to get more tough guy gangs to stand up to the fascists. i’m down with whatever works. i honestly don’t see a way to fix it by working within the system. buy guns.

      To me it just sounded like reinventing the mafia with crackdowns and the like. Maybe that’s how the right laws actually get placed. Wish it doesn’t come to that of course.

      I bet a lot of bikers and gang members are embedded in the system. Money talks. In fact I remember reading in the news a couple of years back where some gang members were threatening to spill the tea on some lawyer-prosecutor-addict-dealer-murderer. They didn’t, ofc after he was convicted and sent away, but nothing more was investigated, either.

      I grow weary. None of us are perfect but I guess dirty is on a spectrum, like mental illness. If one has enough money and doesn’t draw too much of the wrong kind of attention to themselves (and their associates, by default), everything is a-ok, if not and/or one does, one is lucky not to “commit suicide.”
