Unlike those on the take, better men and women should be expected to keep their principles, especially when inconvenient. That’s how we can be sure we have principles at all.
Heath Ledger’s Joker also had a point... "Their morals, their code; it's a bad joke. Dropped at the first sign of trouble. They're only as good as the world allows them to be. You'll see- I'll show you. When the chips are down these, uh, civilized people? They'll eat each other. See I'm not a monster, I'm just ahead of the curve."
I have to admit I’m getting a lot of schedenfreude from the whole situation. I don’t support either side. I hate the black and white of it all.
The cops and coffee was the police taking Timmie’s from protesters who went to get coffee but weren’t allowed back into the protest. So it’s not as clear cut but makes for OUTRAGE!
As for Rebel. I am on their side though I don’t read or support them anymore.
With apologies to Jack Nicholson's Joker, "This country needs an enema!".

Another fine article Alexander. I enjoyed your 'breakout' in the Toronto Sun as well. Well done.
Thank you, Peter! The support is much appreciated.

Certainly not clear cut, but I see why the two-tier policing standards are wearing on so many.
As for the schadenfreude of it all, I don’t blame you. After all, it’s the mess that Canadians voted for.
