Rational Radical

I’ve written a number of times about how PM Harper is doing everything in his power to make his government less accountable and transparent than ever before. He’s a power mad control freak who knows that no one has a stomach for another election, thus he’s acting like he’s in a majority government, even though he’s had only a minority government these past two terms. Unfortunately, the Liberals and NDP have proven that they can’t even get the right person to lead them to inspire people to come back away from the dark side that is Harper’s government. Now, I’m no fan of the Liberals or NDP for what they’ve done provincially and federally (well, federally the NDP hasn’t done anything for decades and decades), and I think Jean Chretien ruled over one of the most corrupt gang of thugs ever.

But Harper is taking this thuggery to a new height. This past week, he tried to pass a bill that would basically mean that all environmental assessments would be rubber stamped by people we cannot trust. Thankfully, Lowell Murray, a Conservative Senator, has the integrity lacking in all other Conservative Senators and refused to pass this omnibus bill, which would have crammed in a whole bunch of scary shit with desperately needed measures. Of course, Harper responded by appointing yet another Conservative Senator to help tip the balance back toward his corrupt side (which is nothing new, since all PMs appoint Senators who will help their corrupt cause).

In light of the G20 debacle–and thank you for everyone who keeps contributing to the relevant threads below!–I thought I would post this recent story in the COMMENTS section.  First, I am sickened that the courts would waste our time and money trying to charge a merchant who detained some scumbag who kept ripping off his store. I covered that story before, explaining that I side 100% with the merchant who is merely protecting his livelihood.  He didn’t beat the jerk, he just detained him. The problem?  He did it one hour later, after he saw the guy riding by, likely about to rob him again. Now, if he cut the guy’s hands off for stealing, that would be another story.  But how the fuck does any cop or anyone in the just-ass system live with themselves when they admit that a scumbag criminal has more rights than a good, honest, hard-working citizen who was a victim of the scumbag criminal?!  Another reason to be embarrassed to be a Canadian.

Having said all that, I have to admit that part of me is glad for what the cops did in the STAR story in the COMMENTS section. Namely, they broke the jaw of an animal who had been involved in many VIOLENT home invasions, some of which are described here:

The robberies were apparently aimed at drug dealers who allegedly owed money. But elderly women and an 8-year-old girl were among the victims.

One woman was sexually assaulted and another was told she would be shot if something went wrong.

A man inside one of the homes had a dollar sign carved into his back with a knife by one of the robbers, who also tried to cut off the man’s finger.

Now, if they were uncertain that this piece of shit was guilty, I’d be concerned.  But they knew he was guilty.  So I applaud the cops for exacting true justice on this Argument for the Death Penalty.  Home Invasions–especially the kinds these monsters committed–are truly some of the worst violations one can imagine, and our courts do not treat them seriously enough. I only wish the cops had called in all of the victims and let them have their way with this waste of skin.

Of course, the rational part of me is concerned that the cops are taking justice into their own hands. What if some cop believes that smoking a joint is worthy of a broken jaw?! So of course I don’t want cops to be able to wantonly throw around vigilante force. But in cases such as this one, I have to admit that I feel that a little karma has been restored…

As could be predicted, $1Billion did not prevent chaos in Toronto and far too many INNOCENT PROTESTERS have been mistreated and thrown into deplorable imprisonment conditions. On the other hand, it can’t be denied that a number of SCUMBAG CRIMINALS ruined it for everyone and deserve to have their heads cracked, thrown in jail, and forced to pay for all of the damage they’ve caused.

Unfortunately, the average person cannot think beyond “black and white” and will thus look at only part of this travesty. For instance, today, two people (one was part of a volunteer student lawyer group) were speaking about the unfair treatment of innocent protesters. I’m glad someone is sticking up for them. However, when the media asked these two about the CRIMINALS/VANDALS who were lurking among them, they totally ignored and minimized these concerns. Such one-sided presentation of information is not helpful at all.

In the end, $1Billion was wasted, millions of dollars of damage was done, many innocent protesters were abused, a number of scumbag animals (please don’t call them “anarchists”) got away with disgusting crimes, and nothing tangible or productive will ever develop out of this idiotic photo shoot called the G8/G20. Thank you Stephen Harper.  Thank you world leaders for never having heard of SKYPE…

As if our tax dollars weren’t being wasted enough with the abuse in the Mississauga department, now we see that the tax-funded University Health Network allowed horrible racism and sexism to go on for 16 months!  No one stepped in and instead shunned the victim.  Meanwhile, nothing has happened to the fuckers who tormented her for 16 months nor to all the assholes who failed to respond to her complaints.

Now, it’s a fact that too many people claim “sexual harassment” or “poison work environment” when this is not the case. However, when there are real examples of this–and there are still far too many such examples–and the victim has the strength to fight back, how do we justify not firing everyone on the spot, after a proper investigation has been launched?

And think that’s bad enough?  How about the recent finding that our tax dollars are paying for tax men and women to snoop on their enemies and to illegally provide help to people and to themselves?!  What happened to these scumbags who have violated the public trust?  Nothing, of course.  Or nothing we’ll ever hear of.  We do know that, for one person, “management took into consideration the employee’s years of service, her good employment record and her co-operation with the investigation.”

The COMMENTS section contains each of these rotten Star stories.  Too bad those “Love it or Leave it” trolls don’t have the brains, testicles or ovaries to comment.  They must be loving how their tax dollars are being spent…

I’ve covered the Rahim Jaffer / Helena Geurgis scandal since before it first broke, since each of these idiots demonstrated their true stripes before the house of entitlement came crashing down on them.  I hope people follow Jaffer’s fall from grace carefully so they can see the pattern of a true Narcissist–I’m talking about an actual personality disorder. Once you recognize what he’s doing, you might be able to see the same pattern in the people you work or associate with, so you can learn to avoid becoming burned by them.  I’ve interacted with many people with various forms/degrees of Narcissistic Personality Disorder and they show the same pattern Jaffer is demonstrating.  Read the COMMENTS section below to learn how to spot one of the worst types of people you could ever come across.

As soon as I heard of the 16 year-old girl who got lost at sea trying to circumnavigate the globe, my first thought was “WHO IS GOING TO PAY FOR THE RESCUE OPERATION?” which has so far cost $300,000.  My second thought was, “What is the parents’ angle or dysfunction?“  Well, the family is claiming to be broke so they sure as hell aren’t going to pay the cost.  I personally believe that every time one of these adrenaline junkies gets into trouble and requires a rescue effort, they should foot the bill themselves, especially since many of them are rich enough to waste time on this foolishness.  I’m not sure what the international rules are but I hope these fools are held accountable.

In this particular case, today’s STAR story tells you what the parents’ angle is.  It’s the same as all incompetent parents these days: Get a “reality” TV deal.  Great…

I really hope people will keep reading this or any other site that reveals the kind of shit our elected officials do at all levels of government. When you get the chance, sign petitions, call your representatives, and vote the fuckers out of office.  That’s your right and your duty as a citizen in a democracy.  What am I talking about? We are learning more and more about all the pork-barrelling that is going on re. the G20 summit.  It’s disgusting to see how much money is being wasted on initiatives that will never benefit anyone except the politicians who arranged for them and the people who are jacking up prices to do contract work for useless shit:

Yeah, I’m talking to YOU, MP Tony Clement. I’ve been riding this scumbag for YEARS.  He’s an evil fuck. I hope he and all the MPs involved in this debacle lose their seats.  It’s a scandal that will cost billions of dollars when all is said and done, and is nothing except an exercise for PM Harper to wag his dick in the air saying “Look at me, look at me, I’m a big-time player now!”

What about Sandra Bussin, the Beaches Toronto City councillor, who arranged for the guy who has a monopoly on selling food at the beaches to get a 20-year sweetheart deal that’s even BETTER than he had asked for.  And this happened AFTER he fucked around for nearly three years, telling the city to go screw itself.  He owns two homes and sends three or four kids to private school at $20,000 per kid per year.  It’s not some sweet mom & pop small-time business as the councillors are making it out to be. She arranged for it and her cronies gave it, while a few fiscally minded councillors–thank you, Rob Ford–tried to open up the process to see if other people could bid on the contract!  Of course, the dysfunctional city council did all this behind closed doors, so no one will ever learn about this shady deal.  And of course, the restaurant owner contributes largely to Bussin’s campaign.  You may remember her as the idiot who called John Tory on CFRB1010, bitching and taunting like a little seven year-old kid when he dared criticize all-powerful Mayor Miller. When Tory called her out, she denied being who she was.  She’s also the one who billed a bunny costume to tax payers, along with other self-promoting and other-harming shit you can read about via this link.

And who could forget about one of the most selfish, self-promoters on the planet, Kyle Rae? Too bad he’s not running in this coming City Council election for Toronto.  Otherwise his latest boondoggle, a $12,000 tax-payer funded going away party he threw this past week would likely have helped him get his ass kicked out of council. When he finally deigned to grace us with a response to his selfish spending–thank you Rob Ford for trying to make him accountable!–he said that Toronto is graceless!  Why?  Because most of us think you’re one of the worst entitled scumbags?!

Of course, read any story about crime and you’ll want to force every judge and just-ass of the peace to have to stare at the victims of crime and let them do to you what they should be allowed to the fuckers who’ve wronged them.  I’m not a simplistic “get tough on crime and ignore the root causes of crime” kind of guy.  But I also know that we truly have no justice in this country.  I also know that scumbags do have more rights than honest citizens and the victims they make of such citizens.

If you live in the GTA, please do watch the video on Rob Ford’s site to see just how many perks the councillors get at our expense!

And let’s not forget that the worst Premier of Ontario ever–Dalton McGuinty–refuses to help stimulate the economy by continuing to refuse to allow MMA (via the UFC) to come to Ontario, even though Montreal and Vancouver are scooping up millions of dollars every time they hold a fight there.  It’s not a priority for Ontarians, the asshole claims.  What?  He thinks that everything else he’s rammed down our throats–including the HST!–is a priority?!  We need John Tory to run for Premier of Ontario again.  Too bad the citizens do not like a man of honesty and integrity…

Or at least the just-ass system.  How long do you think a monster who forced his five year-old step-daughter to perform oral sex on him should go to jail?  What if he refuses to admit to his crime?  What if he shows no remorse? What if he is at moderate risk to re-offend?

Answer: Five years.  Fuck the just-ass system.

How about the bitch of a “mother” who lied along with this cock-sucker and tried to get her daughter to recant her claims?  Nothing happens to her.  Fuck the just-ass system.
