Lawrence Manzer case ends abruptly in a mistrial

Published July 15, 2011 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Abusive Prosecutions, Lawrence Manzer Case


What a bizarre end to a case that everyone, me included, expected would tell us just how far the government thinks we are allowed to go in protecting ourselves, our homes, our families and our neighbours. I had a long talk with Laurie Manzer yesterday afternoon, once he returned home from court.  While he is greatly disappointed that the case did not give us a clearer idea … [Read more...]

Lawrence Manzer goes on trial one week from today

Published July 7, 2011 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Abusive Prosecutions, Lawrence Manzer Case


Lawrence Manzer goes on trial one week from today in a case that should never be before the court at all.  The only reason it is appears to be the local RCMP's hatred of someone doing their job and Crown Prosecutor Paul Hawkins' hatred for a decent man doing the right thing when the RCMP won't. Hawkins certainly doesn't seem to have a problem with actual violent criminals or … [Read more...]

What does New Brunswick Crown Attorney Paul Hawkins have against convicting criminals?

Paul Hawkins is a Crown Prosecutor in New Brunswick.  He's the man bringing charges against Lawrence Manzer for the "crime"  of standing on his front porch with his unloaded shotgun while he watched his neighbour, Brian Fox, apprehend one of the drunken little jerks that had been vandalizing their neighbourhood for months. Originally Hawkins charged Brian Fox with assault, … [Read more...]

Another New Brunswick Legion is Burned Down by Arsonists

Published June 17, 2011 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Lawrence Manzer Case, Stupid Human Tricks


Another New Brunswick legion building has been torched by arsonists, causing many veterans to wonder what's going on in that province.  Royal Canadian Legion #60, 75 kilometres east of Fredericton on Route 105, was intentionally set on fire on June 14th, 2011. Last June, Legion 93, located near CFB Gagetown, was lit on fire by an 18-year-old man, Wayne Heighton.  He … [Read more...]

Canadian Freedom advocate Katey Montague has just published a video to her YouTube website in support of New Brunswick resident Lawrence Manzer, who is facing charges of "possession of a weapon dangerous to the public peace." Manzer was charged last year after he and neighbour Brian Fox apprehended three drunken teenagers who had been vandalizing and stealing from their … [Read more...]

RCMP wants to make New Brunswick Safer? Stop abusing law-abiding citizens!

Published April 1, 2011 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Lawrence Manzer Case


Assistant RCMP Commissioner Wayne Lang, the man in charge of the RCMP in New Brunswick, was interviewed by the Daily Gleaner a couple of weeks ago.  He spouted the usual rhetoric… and made a surprising statement in light of the Lawrence Manzer case. Lang said his crime reduction goals can only be achieved through a partnership with the public, "The only way we are going to … [Read more...]

Lawrence Manzer, as anyone who's been following my blog for a while will know,  is the man currently facing charges of "weapon dangerous to the public peace" in Burton, New Brunswick.  His crime?  Stepping onto his porch with an unloaded shotgun to make sure his neighbour was safe.

Laurence Manzer pleads “Not Guilty” to gun charges

Published December 6, 2010 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Canada's Firearms Act, Lawrence Manzer Case


Laurence Manzer pleads "Not Guilty" to gun charges New Brunswick Crown Counsel had a chance to come to its senses and failed miserably.  Lawrence Manzer's trial for possessing a weapon dangerous to the public peace will now take place on June 28 & 29, 2011 at the Burton Courthouse. Personally I think it's absurd that the Crown is moving forward with this case. I have … [Read more...]

Published December 2, 2010 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Abuse of Police Authority, Canada's Firearms Act, Lawrence Manzer Case


Update -- December 6, 2010: The Crown has decided it is in the public interest to move forward with this case.  That's a joke, not justice. I had a long talk with Lawrence Manzer yesterday about his case, what happened, and how the RCMP have been handling things.  It was a very interesting conversation, to put it mildly.  All the media accounts seem to be correct on one … [Read more...]

Lawrence Russell Manzer CKOM News Talk 650 Radio Interview

Published November 30, 2010 by Christopher di Armani Filed Under: Abuse of Police Authority, Canada's Firearms Act, Lawrence Manzer Case, Personal Responsibility


If you're not familiar with the name Lawrence Manzer, I'm shocked.  But for those who haven't heard of this man, here's a brief background: In March 2010 he was woken up in the middle of the night by his neighbour.  There were prowlers in his back yard, and he wanted Manzer's assistance.  Manzer went outside, unloaded shotgun in hand, to check out the situation.  He called … [Read more...]
