you considered the judge's mercy as evidence to support your cause, and someone even suggested that you could win if you bring the case to court. that is naive. i would say that the chances of winning are almost zero unless the judge treats you above the law. it happens sometimes, like the indian kirpan case.


actually, what really bothers me is not if you win the case or not, but rather the dangerous massage you send out to everyone from your first posting: let's fight agaist the authority.

you are promoting the distrust and conflict between the police and the new immigrants. please be aware that the police are not our enemies, it is the law offenders.

you think going to court is as simple as going to the grocery store. we are all rich, staying home doing nothing, and ready to sue anybody at any time.

you are misleading people, especially the newcomers. going to court should be reserved as the last alternative when we have a dispute.

you hit it right on the nail for your below point. it is not neccesary to wait till i become a policeman, the waiting time for the court hearing is already long enough to take at least one year also, as you know. pointless appeals like yours are to blame.

yet, this is your right. you finally have  hands on experience about what is going on in a canadian court. this is a canadian experince!

And thanks God Mfeous were not a police. Otherwise there is too much overwhelming work for the court.

对于从国内过来的移民来说，无论新老，大多数做事还是谨慎保守外加能忍则忍的，对警察当然更是客客气气的。除非有关系，在国内绝对是百姓怕警察的(警察们可是真会报复的），与这里比决不一样。基于这样大多数人的背景，楼主的做法是给大家以鼓励，既不要能忍则忍，当别人欺负你时，无论是谁，你要会维护自己尊严。这里不是国内，不少case没关系与钱，官司输的惨。这里的警察们虽大多很好公正，但也有少数素质确实低下的外加严重歧视的，我也遇到过。这里楼主的帖子已经很清楚了，点背遇到糟糕的警察还外加威胁，当然受不了，换作当地人也会去告（已咨询过几个当地的朋友）。

看看这里的大多是帖子，凡事总有支持与反对的，楼主也不用介意。但我个人双手支持你的这个帖子，鼓励！！！

to be a role model to let others follow, you did far from what you should do. indeed, you did not do anything except trying to waive your $95 fine in the court. this was deemed you were sued by the police by violating the law for not signing the registration certificate. you did not agree and appealed for that decision.

it had nothing to do with what you ultimately want: punishing the two police for abusing the  power.

why not sue the police by opening a file in the court? you brushed aside this question with a perfect excuse: too pre-occupied! you have not tried it out by yourself , how can you guarantee that others will be better off if they follow your sugestion,  if same kind of situation happens again, let alone other cases?


practice what you preach first.

感谢各位朋友的跟贴，不管你是赞同我的做法，还是对此嗤之以鼻。

本来是想去投诉这2个恶警，我不会改变我的称呼；因为当时的感受只有我自己知道。但限于各种原因，我确实没有再走下去；发这个帖子只是想给各位曾经或者将会受到不公正待遇的朋友打打气，或给一些新来乍到还不善于打官司解决问题的朋友一点启发，当然那些已经成功融入当地社会，张口闭口都要show off他的学识或给同胞以教育的人是不在此之列的；对于他们，我还不够格。

相反，假如这个帖子确实可以call on others to follow my example，那正是我的本意。

去年的帖子找不到了，如果有些朋友记得的话，应该记得我当时明确指出，在我前面的警车开在单行道上，这条街有2个道，警车跨着车道，换言之，完全赌塞了交通，而且没有给任何明示比如她们正在执行一项紧急的任务；否则我也不至于去对警车按喇叭，谁比谁都不傻。想再指出这一点因为有人声称看过我去年的帖子...

我绝对支持你，如果警车这麽开的话，完全没有道理。

支持楼主。不管如何，发出自己的声音。
楼上的mefous，挺烦你的，字里行间找错，纯粹为辩赢而辩。
