They just ran away. <br /><br />Simon, I must say how much I loathe food banks. I know they are better for some people than going hungry (they are utterly useless for people with allergies or other specific dietary needs, with their white flour, white sugar, shitty fats and other slow poisons). But they are also a way for the élite to pretend to do something about hunger and poverty instead of calling for raising the rates (minimum wage, welfare rates, guaranteed income supplement, workers' comp etc) and supporting social housing and other measures to support people in dire straits). <br /><br />No, I'm not saying that to pick on Trudeau. All of them take part in that farce. lagatta à montréalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02610410709900333230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-33907980996529230062015-12-21T14:08:59.275-05:002015-12-21T14:08:59.275-05:00"The Con media needs to stop fuelling the fea..."The Con media needs to stop fuelling the fears of the ignorant..."<br /><br />“Fear is the path to the dark side.

But...hi anon....Harper's Canada is indeed over. But there is a hard core of supporters who don't seem to accept the verdict of the voters. Demanding that a duly elected government be overthrown is an assault on our democracy. And making death threats is a crime that needs to be suppressed by whatever legal means necessary. And how can I hate the police, when I have worked with them for many years? I bet I'm like no lefty you have ever met, so you should be careful who you stereotype. I'm not accusing all conservatives of behaving badly, or being bad losers. But there are enough of them out there at this time who must and will be brought under control. Far too many right-wingers see life in black and white, but it's far more complex than that, and when most of the death threats come from one side, your side, you should be concerned about where your side is going. But what I can tell you is this, it will not take you to victory, and from now on defeat will be your only companion...Simonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15309809679331128837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-17315086400516872532015-12-21T09:48:59.770-05:002015-12-21T09:48:59.770-05:00hi ExMTLer...I can't remember any other groups...hi ExMTLer...I can't remember any other groups threatening to kill politicians in this country.

First off, it was one of your uneducated right wing minions who mentioned a "kudatah" Is it your contention that we should just ignore threats of violence and treason because you guys are now irrelevant? More importantly, is this how you plan on becoming relavent again, because once the new electoral system is implemented, your party will go the way of the dinosaurs. The xenophobic stance of hate and fear implemented by Herr Harper will not work on the younger generation. The jig is up, your game is over. On one hand, you claim to be the ones who are all for the police and that all lefties hate the police, and on the other you seem to be endorsing a violent over throw of a legally elected government. The fact is, its not a matter of using the police to attack your party, it's a matter of having the police arrest violent, disillusioned psychopaths. Do you not see how this is exactly the same as the moderate Muslims your clan hates because they say nothing about the extremists amongst them?

I can't believe some of the ugly comments I'm reading, it all helps create an atmosphere of violence, and we can't allow that to happen in Canada.

This asshat actually ran for city counsel in my city years ago and had run into an election fraud issues because his mother fronted him 5000 dollars, which far exceeded the allowed single contribution. His contention was that he would pay her back when more people donated to his twisted cause. Much to nobodies surprise, there were no other suckers who contributited. During the recent campaign this guy posted a picture of Trudeau on Facebook with gun sights semi imposed on the frame, when I called him out for it, he gave me his actual home address and asked me to drop by his place so he could shoot me, making sure to mention he had a house full of guns. I imagine I will be reading about him in the papers in the near future. These people are about as far removed from reality as Donald Trumps moronic sycophants.

I thought that Harper's Canada was totally over, no longer a thing, dustbin of history, etc. etc. etc. <br /><br />But for some reason, we Harper supporters have all this power, enough to bring down sitting governments through a coup. I'm confused, I thought we were old news, over, finished, gone. <br /><br />Interesting that the answer to our existence, which, I dunno, may or may not be significant anymore, is, *ahem* "The police must crack down on those violent hate mongers and treat them like the terrorists they are. Bust them, jail them, break them."<br /><br />So interesting that a guy from a party which *hates* the police, nevertheless wants to use them, and the state's proxy violence to harm people you don't like.<br /><br />Hmm... I wonder if the leftist sense enlightenment is, oh, how did our PM put it...? "That's not a thing." Turns out, that your virtue signaling isn't actually a thing; you flat-out don't understand who conservatives are, why we believe as we do, and you aren't open to learning. But that's okay, because really we need to be jailed... right?<br /><br />https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sqIYznUlwtA<br /><br />https://www.aei.org/publication/liberals-or-conservatives-whos-really-close-minded/<br /><br />https://www.ted.com/talks/jonathan_haidt_on_the_moral_mind?language=enAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23253782.post-23772714939214815462015-12-21T06:45:30.572-05:002015-12-21T06:45:30.572-05:00Before Harper and his ReformCon bullies arrived on...Before Harper and his ReformCon bullies arrived on the scene, the only group I can recall that promoted the killing of politicians in Canada was the FLQ.
