The city is carrying out a bizarre medical experiment in which they are helping homeless drug addicts use drugs. ‘It’s handing a loaded gun to a suicidal person.’
At this point all I can say is: go and see it.
Over the past two years, more than 1,360 people have died from drug overdoses in San Francisco. That is more than double the number who have died from Covid.
But you don’t need more stats. You don’t need more numbers about how the tent encampments are exploding. Or about the amount of money that the city is paying for each person doing drugs on the sidewalks. You need to see it.
The police tried to get into the Iconic Cafe, a small business that commited the crime of serving coffee to the truckers, to arrest the owners. They were scared off by a citizen live streamer, for now
I’m on the scene and will there when the police come back.#TrudeauHasGotToGo— Daniel Bordman (@Ranting4Canada) February 20, 2022
This is a clear example of the federal and Ottawa municipal governments being vindictive of anyone even supportive of the truckers.
Businesses that remained open like the Iconic Cafe made the government and legacy media look unhinged by proving the truckers and convoy supporters were peaceful and good for small businesses in Ottawa.
The truckers were not only not a nuisance to the Iconic Cafe, but according to the owners, the wives of truckers were even helping clean their bathrooms and mopping floors to provide services to them for remaining open for the convoy.
Canada’s prime minister won a skirmish but lost his credibility, which means that he has also lost legitimacy and will lose the war.
As the philosopher Bertie Wooster was wont to observe, “it’s always just when a fellow is feeling particularly braced with things in general that Fate sneaks up behind him with a bit of lead piping.” Authorities are divided on whether Bertie was correct in attributing the observation to Shakespeare. Perhaps it has its origin in the reflections of some other sage. But regarding the pertinence of the phenomenon to the conduct of human affairs there seems to be general agreement. The Greek tragedians analyzed it as a cosmic interplay of ὕβρις and ἄτη, arrogance followed by infatuation and ruin. I am not sure whether little Justin Trudeau, prime minister pro tem of Canada, has given much thought to the operation of this awful (in the old sense) dialectic, but I suspect that he is about to make its close and palpable acquaintance.
Border blockades cleared. Key protest organizers arrested. A number of protesters arrested. Bank accounts frozen. Trucks seized. Emergency over. And yet, the Canadian government wants to extend the Emergencies Act “indefinitely”? pic.twitter.com/LwCzbO2p2j

The Federal government has locked Journalist Andy Lee’s bank and credit cards.
This is crazy #Trudeau is going after journalists now.

While researching how Americans having been getting rich by helping the Chinese Communist Party achieve its outspoken aim of replacing the US as the “world’s No.1 power,” I came across the phrase “elite capture” — their term to describe the actions of influential people in the US towards China.
“Elite capture” can refer to different things, but to the Chinese Communist Party, China’s intelligence apparatus, or those involved in quasi-private business ventures, it is a crucial tool of their success. The idea is simple enough: by tempting another country’s elite with money, access and favors, you move them to see their interests and China’s interests as intertwined or even the same.
The Chinese are not subtle about this, and they barely try to hide it. They practice it around the world, most notably in Africa in pursuit of their Belt and Road Initiative. But elites in Western democracies have proved to be a soft touch, particularly among non-governmental elites.
Canadian prime minister Justin Trudeau has been denounced by a Member of the European Parliament (MEP) over the “tyrannical actions” he has taken against peaceful protestors taking part in the ongoing ‘Freedom Convoy’ demonstrations.
Cristian Terhes, a Romanian MEP, has denounced the “tyrannical actions” of Prime Minister Trudeau in regards to his actions against the ongoing Freedom Convoy protest.
What happened in a Rockville, Maryland, high school this January was a scene all too familiar for police officers across the US. An altercation between two boys ended with a shot ringing out, and a 15-year-old left bleeding on a bathroom floor.
What witnesses to the crime did next, however, shocked even Betsy Brantner Smith, a nearly three-decade law enforcement veteran and spokesperson for the National Police Association.
“The students started tweeting about it,” she said. “That’s just, unfortunately, the era we live in.”
Just as Ottawa police, dressed in riot gear, began clearing Freedom Convoy protestors from three temporary locations in the capital on Friday, news emerged from a pipeline construction site in the B.C. interior of an attack by anti-pipeline protestors on Thursday.
Three thousand, four hundred and sixty-one pages. That’s the size of the Toronto police search warrant file in the Barry and Honey Sherman murder investigation.
Compiled over some 50 months and submitted to a court, the documents detail elements of an investigation that has so far failed to solve the murders of billionaire generic drug titan Barry and his wife, Honey. Nearly every lead police have chased, every person they have interviewed, every scrap of relevant evidence collected is documented within those pages. It is, in essence, the road map through one of one of Canada’s most challenging and most closely watched murder probes.
When thousands of protesters against Covid restrictions arrived in Ottawa last month, it would have seemed unimaginable that they would take over parts of the Canadian capital with little resistance.
To their own disbelief, the rightwing protesters soon controlled the streets outside parliament, brazenly flouting the law in the belief nothing could or would stop them.
This weekend, however, the blockade ended in incredulity, accusations of betrayal and questions over the future of the protest movement.
WHAT IS A MISCHIEF CHARGE?
A mischief charge under the Criminal Code is extremely flexible, covering a wide range of possible offences from interfering with computer data to mischief endangering life or causing death.
The Canadian government claims that the reason the police used violence and force to move protesters off the streets of Canada’s capital was that the demonstrators themselves were violent.
Police Chief Steven Bell gave a press conference on Saturday trying to justify his officers using horses to push the protesters back. After several demonstrators were trampled — caught on video — Bell denied that it was a big deal.
A woman was killed and five others wounded in a shooting Saturday night at a Portland park where people had gathered to protest the police shooting of Amir Locke.
Police responded to reports of shots fired at a street intersection near Normandale Park just after 8 pm, before demonstrators could even begin a planned march, which was set to begin at 8, flyers posted on social media show.
Arriving officers found one woman dead, and two men and three other women were taken to the hospital, police said. Their conditions were not immediately known.
Last night there was a mass shooting in Portland at Normandale Park where armed #antifa & far-left militants were gathering for a direct action. One female is deceased & there are five others injured. #Antifa are claiming shooting was politically motivated pic.twitter.com/68n38GAsPV
