So what about a medical condition that causes erratic behaviour that is actually beyond the control of the individual?

Take some time to think about that before you reply.

If you are still holding a grudge, remember, that means if you have a stroke, or a heart attack behind the wheel of your car, harm someone, and survive, you feel you should be found to be 100% at fault and be held responsible.

What was the point in adding the tiny print stating "If you are still holding a grudge, remember, that means if you have a stroke, or a heart attack behind the wheel of your car, harm someone, and survive, you feel you should be found to be 100% at fault and be held responsible."

Bet you thought that was real clever, huh? Lmao!

Having a heart attack at the wheel and causing an accident that kills someone is far different than having a mental break and attacking someone. Or worse, killing someone. Somewhere inside that person is a very violent personality and it needs to be dealt with. Not with hugs and kisses from mental health advocates but with time removed from society where they can get the help they need. Behind bars, for a good length of time. Not a couple months of "treatment" and then back out in the world being told "remember to take your meds" only for them to think "I don't need my meds" and then they re-offend. And the whole cycle starts again. "I wasn't on my meds, not my fault" and out come the advocates, more treatment, more meds, and it's a continuous cycle that never ends.

I did not say mental break. I said medical condition.

If someone has a medical condition that is causing them to attack and or kill people then they should not be out mingling in society.

Rather then being caught up in a circular debate about drugs and the culture surrounding that issue and what drove the unfortunate young woman to behave the way she did would it not be a lot more productive to discuss the core issue of this specific problem? If the initial reporting on this thread was in any way accurate would it not be more productive to find ways to ensure that the owner of the offending property brought that property into compliance with accepted standards? Seems that that might be better place to start than arguing about a problem that's far too large to remedy on a local basis.

If we didn't have legalized slave labour, we'd have a lot less of these social problems.

Legalized slave Labour as you put it, is one thing, but blaming them for pre existing social problems is, for lack of a better term, Trumpesque. No?
Is that where we are at again? Blaming coloured folk for societal ills?

that is not the core issue, that is a symptom

In this particular case the existence of the sub-standard property is, in fact, the core issue. If the initial reporting is accurate it would seem that the various levels of government charged with the responsibility of ensuring that the property was habitable by the temporary workers have not discharged that responsibility properly which has resulted directly in the social issues on which folks here are concentrating. Perhaps if the owner of the offending property had been compelled to bring the site to an acceptable standard the area would not have deteriorated and the present issues would not exist.

I think this is just the way Brazilian woman make a statement.

The core issue is why a person with mental problems was not turned back at the border. For every foreign citizen in our overburdened health care system there is one less spot for our own citizens.
This person has committed assault and break and enter. We could spend many thousands of taxpayers dollars on this event, or we could send her home and use that money for our own problems.

Typical straw man argument^^
It's completely inconceivable that this woman developed issues while here subjected to abominable conditions and then preyed upon by abhorrent individuals?
