In TOTAL Condemnation Of Ottawa Fire Bombing - There Is NO Place For Violence As A Political Tool Ever
No matter where you reside on the political spectrum, from the far Right to the far Left, there can be no acceptance of violence in political discourse. None whatsoever. Period.

Idyuts playing with lives. It strikes me as being lazy revolution..or having read "V for Vendetta once too often".
Isn't it a trend with people like this ala the german group of the '70s, the American Militias of the '80s et al that they tend to hit financial institutions with the purported aim of ideology and end up bank robbers with elaborate excuses?

What I found irritating were all the tweebs commenting on the YouTube video who objected to it being called terrorism.
Right down to the title of the video, wherein the firebombers were described as "protesters".
Yeah... no.

I confess I haven't read the graphic novel yet. But the domino scene in the movie still gives me chills when I see it.

It's never a good thing when Patsy drops by your blog.

As a Saskparty member and a federal PC voter there are only a few rare times when I read your blog entries and agree with you. This time however happens to be one of those rare times. As you said, violence should never be used to further a political agenda.
