So I was reading the Province on thursday or friday,
and in the first page, right after the cover , is a right wing goofballs article
he's all up in a tiff over the money spent on the Bacon Bro in pretrial.
I don't care about the Bro or his cell tv.
Hinting throughout the article, and spitting it out at the last second, john forbes, or whoever he really is, let out his punch line....
"Let's send the gangsters to Afghanistan."
Sorry John. It's been done so many times its not funny. Turkish Armenia, Germany, and a dozen other states have used the most violent prisoners of their own system, freed them, put them in uniforms and sent them out to to "protect"/cleanse a group or race.
It's standard practice in genocide, then you can just say it was a "few bad apples".
Canada is so foolish, it doesn't even keep track of how many foreigner visitors are "ex-military".
No, "they" wouldn't think of doing that here, sending ex-cons and ex-military to harass/rape/destroy social cohesion and those pesky artists who might create stories about it. Not here.
While I'm at this topic, I think it's almost time people give up on the UN.
It has no power to enforce peace or human rights, it's unwilling to step in and stop half a dozen genocidal massacres that have occurred in the last 20 years. Darfur, Rwanda, Tienanmen, etc.
It's toothless. Completely toothless. All they can do is cleanup the mess, and they can't throw anyone from the g8 in jail for war crimes.
And a puppet gov't in a rigged election is installed in the latest place where we are trying to sell this "Democracy" with air strikes and and troops, not universities and hospitals.
