If I Had A Subscription To The Edmonton Journal .. I Would Cancel It
"But surely, surely, we have advanced to the point where every one knows former Harper aide Thomas Flanagan wasn't serious when he mused darkly about an assassination of WikiLeaks' Julian Assange."
The Edmonton Journal
Excuse me??! Would the Editorial Board of the Edmonton Journal please explain how 'every one knows' that Flanagan's murderous proclamation was not serious? If Mr. Flanagan joked about a bomb in his shorts at the Edmonton Airport, should we expect the security guards to merely laugh and slap good old Tom Flanagan on the back for being such a funny joker? NO! He would have been arrested on the spot and charged.
Piss off you Right wing idiots!

I think Flanagan said what they all were thinking.
That the guy who exposed the criminality of the monsters who murdered hundreds of thousands of people ought to himself be murdered for his temerity.
No, right-wing hypocrites, you are not going to get this one brushed-off.
We don't want the sewer of FUX-news mentality stinking up our airwaves thank you very much.

If the Edmonton Journal editorial team was consistent, they should be advocating for this moron!

I posted this letter to the editor from the Calgary Herald on my blog:
Re: "Professor won't face discipline for remarks," Dec. 3
An important observation made in the letter is:
"What we are witnessing is the beginnings of Stalinist silencing. No matter how inflammatory Assange's reporting may be, it is still newsworthy and carries the right to be published in any society that market's itself to be, quote unquote, a free entity.
Let us ask ourselves the chilling question of when will people's legitimate political expression and opposition be silenced in the way that some are suggesting Assange be silenced?"
