There is no specific law against rooftopping – although someone could be charged with criminal damage, theft or other offences, depending on the circumstances. Should there be laws created for rooftopping? Could the laws prevent deaths? #GilliesLaw https://t.co/PPFiNJRlfu

@Faina_BCSSlaw I love that they are banning unnecessary declawing because it's an act of #AnimalCruelty. Declawing involves the amputation of the last bone of each toe. If performed on a human it would be like cutting off each finger at the last knuckle. #GilliesLaw https://t.co/zpXS90c3Qq

The 20 children and six adults killed five years ago at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut will be remembered, always. Here's a glimpse of what was lost. https://t.co/m3xVR93u5J

@JDemarcoLaw I agree; ​investing tax money towards the sports arena doesn't provide any significant benefit to the Ottawa economy. The tax money should be going towards things that are more beneficial towards tax payers. #Gillieslaw https://t.co/kBPf5ePfhV

Even the modest funeral parlors offer elaborate services starting at $1,100; this is far beyond the means of most Haitians, who live on $2 a day or less. Should the government use some of the tax money to fund cremations which are cheaper options? #GilliesLaw https://t.co/97Jz7TtWTn

They will never know how much his parents loved him. To these men, a 10-month-old boy was just one more victim of mizè — misery — in Haiti. https://t.co/xwqHGec2OV

Wage increases in women's sports promotes #GenderEquality and #WomensRights significantly because they are being given more recognition. #GilliesLaw https://t.co/Rk4GIf6zma

The president of the United States isn't aware of any laws he could possibly implement in order to prevent massacres? Here's an idea: HOW ABOUT MORE RESTRICTIONS ON GUN CONTROL?? #GilliesLaw https://t.co/AXoJPt2Qib

On the five-year anniversary of the Sandy Hook massacre, White House press secretary Sarah Sanders says the Trump administration is "not aware" of anything that could have prevented it https://t.co/coMaNMq31v

@nickbcsslaw I agree; having his DNA get onto Ms.Coyle, and saying it was possible his genitals came out of his boxers during the night, doesn't make the assault story sound accidental. #GilliesLaw

@JDemarcoLaw Testimony revealed that the accused hit over 19 people who were counter protesters during a chaotic demonstration by white supremacists. Seeing as the accused is a self-professed neo-Nazi, I think it's reasonable to assume he didn't like them. Would you agree? #GilliesLaw

Do you think it is a possibility that CSIS got a mediator to negotiate a settlement out of court, because they believed they would most likely lose the lawsuits? #GilliesLaw https://t.co/2rHWlaEGDF

[Abril @abrilmure]

Seeing as he murdered a counter protester, should he be charged for a hate crime as well? #GilliesLaw https://t.co/ETw8XpaMcH

Hoping that United Nations captures the leader of the MSF group soon and convicts them of genocide. #CommandResponsibility #GilliesLaw https://t.co/JvgSTRnjhT

@benwCHA I absolutely agree; although if someone is constantly making misleading statements and mild exaggerations, it's reasonable to believe their compulsive lying may lead them to lie about larger things. Would you agree? #GilliesLaw

[Abril @abrilmure]

Should the #RightOfLiberty extend towards protecting individuals who go against the religious morals of their country? The constitutional court of Indonesia believes so. #GilliesLaw https://t.co/htEP4GpjOy

Trump is violating his people's constitutional #RightToKnow. Do you think constant lying should be a justification for impeachment? #GilliesLaw https://t.co/t7azITX6f5

Devastating to see that still to this day, not all individuals have the privilege to exercise their #FreedomOfReligion without facing a risk of death. How can law enforcement be implemented to ensure no more stabbings occur in Hebron? #GilliesLaw https://t.co/nUHw6QkBd3

Do you think that debt collectors who use aggressive tactics to chase customers, and manage to reel in payments when no credit was owed in the first place should be charged with #fraud and #harassment? #GilliesLaw https://t.co/26PAuJWUOu

@elina_bcsslaw The EPA has designed laws to reduce and prevent marine debris; although I don't think people will listen to the laws, until they make purposely polluting oceans and lakes a criminal offence. #GilliesLaw https://t.co/MYK1VVmEFQ

Do you think that retouching or airbrushing photos in advertisements should be illegal? #GilliesLaw https://t.co/QB3kVlcZf5
