Not so 'apparent' after all (Ah yes the apparently unbiased and balanced, neutral, community-serving Canadian media in full cry)

A Toronto Activist dissects a media story run......

This makes for a really enlightening 'read'. I strongly urge all to read Jim Wightman's piece carefully and follow the media story as it 'unfolds' . It won't take long for anyone to realize which way the Canadian media (and our community as a result) is unfortunately 'conditioned' to think these days. Sigh.. oh for the old days when journalists were real, upstanding, unbiased, and balanced and not mouthpieces and 'yes' people. What happened to them all?

"It is really no wonder that the general public believes that domestic violence is a 'husband generated' plague with wives as the victims. One also wonders why the press isn't held to account for not only helping to perpetuate that lie but, in fact, for doing everything it can to encourage it.
The following articles are about a tragic double murder in Brampton yesterday. Brampton, of course, is the home of the Peel Courthouse, known for being one of the most feminist, anti-father bastions in Ontario.

Note that in the first story the report headline makes clear that this is an 'apparent' domestic attack.

The first line in the story then repeats that this is an 'apparent' domestic attack.

A couple of sentences farther along a witness, notably a 'woman at the scene', states that she heard the man 'confronting' the woman about 'having an affair'.

Tragically, a man who attempted to intervene, was also stabbed to death. Later in the article it notes that police were 'trying to identify the relationship of the male victim to the other two involved'.

Read the entire article and then move on to the article following that - written later Thursday "

Good Samaritan dies with woman in apparent domestic

By ROB LAMBERTI, SUN MEDIA

BRAMPTON--A Good Samaritan was knifed to death along with the woman he tried to save from an apparent domestic attack yesterday by a suicidal man.

A Peel Regional Police sergeant, who arrived at the Red Maple Plaza at about 2:35 p.m. used his Taser to subdue a 28-year-old man as he was stabbing himself in the throat.

One woman at the scene, Sharla Weller, said she was told the man had confronted the woman, claiming she was involved in an affair. Police would not comment on the motive for the attack.

As the man knifed the woman, another man rushed to her aid trying to stop the attack.

A chair was found in the strip mall's parking lot, apparently used to stop the knife-wielding man.

One victim collapsed and died in the parking lot, while the other stumbled into a nearby business and died.

The suspect was taken to Sunnybrook hospital. His condition was not disclosed, but the injuries were described as severe.

Because the suspect was jolted by a police Taser, the civilian watchdog, Special Investigations Unit, sent nine agents to investigate. "When the officer arrived, the man was harming himself," said SIU spokesman Frank Phillips. "The officer deployed a Taser to stop the man from doing so. The Taser was effective." Phillips said the suspect was armed with a knife.

Peel Const. J.P. Valade said identities of the victims are being withheld until their families are notified. "We're still trying to identify the relationship of the male victim to the other two involved," he said.

The acts of violence left a normally quiet and peaceful neighbourhood reeling in shock. That someone from their community could be dead, sacrificing himself to help someone being attacked, has shaken residents. "You try to help someone and look what happens," said Weller, who was walking her dog and arrived at the plaza on the corner of Red Maple Dr. and McLaughlin Rd., near Bovaird Dr., shortly after the violence ended. "It's scary. "It could have been anybody ... doing something to help," the mother of two young children said.

Weller was upset at the community's loss of innocence following the murders. "That's where I go for pizza," she said looking past a body covered with a yellow tarp. "That's my dentist's office." She said she'll think twice about bringing her children for slushies at the Hasty Mart. "It's a quiet street. Everyone manicures their lawns," said area resident Raquel, who didn't want her last name used. "We all trim each other's trees. It's not like you don't know everyone."

Also frantic were the parents who arrived to pick up their toddlers at the mall's Montessori school and found police in the parking lot.
Shopkeeper Ather Syad was standing by the yellow police tape looking at the scene, stunned by the violence that left his wife, who was working at their store alone, shaken by what she saw.

He said his wife, Habiba, was inside their Bestway Food Mart store when she heard yelling outside.

She looked out and saw a woman on the ground and the suspect standing outside the mall's meat store, forcing the knife into his neck as police were arriving. "She came out in the parking lot and she saw a guy putting a knife to his throat and the lady was lying there," said Syad. "She went back and locked the door," he said.

Syad said his wife "definitely is in shock. She has never seen in her life a knife in the hand and a man cutting his own throat."

__________________________________________________________________

Now we flash forward to the next report, later in the day. Note now what the TRUTH is.

The attack was not a domestic attack at all - it was a completely unprovoked attack by a stranger.

The Good Samaritan was in, in fact, the woman's husband who gave his life trying to save her.

The attacker was a known felon with a long rap sheet who was out on bail for another violent offense. (It hasn't been stated yet, but I would not be surprised if the judge who granted bail was one of our upholders of justice from the Brampton Courthouse.)

So, in fact, this wasn't domestic violence at all. The root cause was an Ontario judge of the Ontario Justice System who granted bail to a known and repeat violent offender.

This is of course the same Justice System that villifies husbands and fathers. In effect it was the Justice System that murdered not only the woman by letting out this low life, but effectively murdered her husband as well.

I wonder if any of this Truth will show up on any of the Domestic Violence Industry's propaganda.

Now, to be totally fair the first report is from the Toronto Sun, the second from CTV. However, as far as I can remember, all media were initially reporting this as an 'apparent' domestic dispute. Still, I have also included the later report from the Sun as well.

Note that there is no 'remorse' from the Sun about having defamed husbands and fathers in their earlier article. There is no explanation of the woman witness who 'heard' the attacker confronting the victim about an affair. There is also no explanation about why this was even thought to be an 'apparent' domestic attack given that the woman was in her fifties and the attacker was in his twenties. And of course the woman was Afghani - the attacker was not. So where does the 'apparent' aspect come from?

Not only should the Judge concerned, and the Ontario Justice System, be held resposible for this tragedy, the press should be held to account for yet again rushing to feed the flames of the Domestic Violence Industry's ongoing burning at the stake of Ontario husbands and fathers.

Fatal stabbing victims were husband, wife

Peel Regional Police say the victims of a double fatal stabbing in Brampton, Ont., were a husband and wife originally from Afghanistan who didn't know their attacker.

Police originally said a Good Samaritan ran over to help a woman who was being stabbed at a strip mall, but at a news conference on Thursday, investigators said the man was the woman's husband.
Insp. Norm English said the pair went to the strip mall at 20 Red Maple Dr., near McLaughlin Road and Williams Parkway, over the noon hour Wednesday for medical appointments.
While the woman was inside a dentist office, her husband went to go and buy some food next door. It was when she was walking back to her vehicle that she was attacked by a man.
"The attack was completely unprovoked," English told reporters. "The husband saw what was happening and tried to help his wife, but was overcome by the male."
Both victims, Nazifa and Rahimullah Shahghasy, were in their early 50s and lived in Brampton. They died at the scene.
English said the 28-year-old suspect, who was carrying two kitchen knives with 10-inch blades, then began to stab himself in the neck.
Officers arrived and Tasered him, causing the suspect to fall to the ground. The suspect, who also lives in Brampton, was taken to hospital with serious injuries but is expected to survive.
"He will be formally charged with second-degree murder once his condition improves," English said.
Investigators had not yet had a chance to interview the suspect by Thursday afternoon.
English said the suspect is known to police for a "variety of criminal matters," and was facing an outstanding violent offence at the time of the incident.
English didn't have details about the suspect's whereabouts before the double stabbing.
The Shahghasys had lived in Canada for 20 years and are originally from Afghanistan. They have two children, a 21-year-old son and a 19-year-old daughter.
English described the slain pair as "wonderful people."
One of Nazifa co-workers said there is unbelievable heartache at their workplace.
"I think it's a nightmare," co-worker Shahida Malik told CTV Toronto, wiping away tears. "Now she's gone, she's gone."
A cousin of the victims said the ordeal is "beyond belief."
"You're at a loss," the man said. "You can't put it into words, you can't put it into terminology that's understandable with language."
On Thursday, one white and one yellow rose sat beneath a tree near the crime scene.
The SIU is involved in the investigation because of the confrontation involving Peel officers and the suspect.

Woman, husband knifed to death

'Completely unprovoked' attack

By THE CANADIAN PRESS

BRAMPTON, Ont. — A married couple stabbed to death during an afternoon visit to a plaza in Brampton, Ont., were “wonderful people” who became the unfortunate victims of a “completely unprovoked” attack, Peel Regional Police said Thursday.

Nazifa Shahghasy, 52, and her husband Rahimullah Shahghasy, 53, were at the plaza for a medical appointment Wednesday afternoon when a stranger brandishing two knives attacked and killed them.

They leave behind a 21-year-old son and a 19-year-old daughter.

The Shahghasys were “outstanding members of our community” who came to Canada from Afghanistan 20 years ago, said Insp. Norm English.

“This was a stranger attack, unprovoked, in broad daylight,” he said.

“They did not know each other prior to that day.”

Rahimullah Shahghasy was buying food while his wife made an appointment at a dentist’s office, police said.

As she returned to their car, a man armed with two knives — with blades about 25 centimetres long — began stabbing her “for unknown reasons,” English said.

As Rahimullah Shahghasy saw his wife being attacked, he rushed to save her but was also stabbed. Bleeding from his wounds, he staggered into a plaza shop for help before collapsing.

They were both pronounced dead at the scene.

When police arrived, the suspect started stabbing himself, prompting officers to use a Taser to subdue him, English said.

The suspect was taken to hospital, where he was under police guard Thursday and in critical but stable condition.

English said the man, who is from Brampton, will be charged with second-degree murder once his condition improves. He said his name will be released once he is charged.

English said the suspect is “very well known” to them on a “variety of criminal matters,” but he would not elaborate on the charges.
