    Good one. Watch the video. And of course the police won't do anything. But if the phony bill passer had been injured during the scuffle, you bet the wheelchair guy would be arrested.

    great story good for Mr. Skopnik.

    the police did do something, they took the man into custody, the choice not to lay charges may have been with the crown and not the police, but of course because of this police state we are in it is only natural to think that the police won't stand up for the little guy :roll:

    What, the cops call up crown counsel on the spot, to make a decision. I doubt it - they made that call on their own, because they said it would be hard to prove he knew the bill was a fake, and because the assault on the woman clerk was "minor."

    Who cares about the fake bill, the guy's reaction was to try and assault someone when told their money was fake. This guy's a bomb ready to go off and the cops just let him go without consequence. What a system!

    To be fair, another story said she refused to press charges. But yes, what if next time it's a little old lady behind the counter and he assaults her. Or he starts bringing a knife because he doesn't want to lose his fake bill.
