Second Thoughts

Let's see they raise the age of consent and drop the age for adult criminal charges. But that contradiction appears to have lit a lightbulb in their dimwitted dinosaur brains.Tories back away from putting young kids into justice system
The Conservative government plans to introduce a new law in the coming months for harsher treatment of young offenders, but Justice Minister Vic Toews is backing away from the prospect of bringing children as young as 10 into the criminal justice system. Toews, who publicly mused this summer the courts should handle 10- and 11-year-olds who run afoul of the law, told CanWest News Service Tuesday there is little appetite among his provincial counterparts to lower to age of criminal responsibility.

Of course in Afghanistan the same Tory Government is using our armed forces to train children to be killers.
