If you are one of those people sitting on the fence regarding "globalization", weighing the pros and cons as you try to decide on which side of the issue your opinion will fall; you should watch the lunacy taking place in Toronto right now. If the people who oppose it are this crazy, do you really want to be on their team? They are torching police cars in a Canadian city for crying out loud! International free trade and commerce can't be such a bad thing, and if you doubted it before, just turn on your TV and watch these clowns who want it abolished.
Might I also say that Steven D'Souza of the CBC reporting on the protests from among the protestors was enjoying himself entirely too much. Police cars were burning a few blocks away and he was smiling, laughing, and making jokes. Very professional. I doubt that even Jane Taber would be giggling in that situation, much less Rosemary Barton.
I have half a mind to start a new group; The Vigilante Bloc, get a bunch of vigilantes together, train together and take out the Black Bloc next time. Kicking some thug ass is what I'm saying.
ReplyDeleteThat D'Souza kid was a hoot...burning cop cars, smashed windows, flying rocks and he was going on about how he couldn't understand why the police were advancing on the protesters.
ReplyDeleteBrilliant journalism.

the protesters are the ones who want globalization. they just want socialism to be totally controlled by people who think like them.
ReplyDeleteHaha!What anonymous said above me!
ReplyDeleteAnyways i wanted to comment about the police car being torched.It can be considered terrorism true,but it doesnt justify passing laws to that target citizens who werent involved with this charade downtown.The cops did a great job.As did some politicians who also prepped for this.
Its delicate situation that takes finesse on the part of govt and law enforcement.
Lets just say we did much better than Iran or Thailand.
