  1. I guess the poor people of Caledonia have seen that first hand.
  2. So a "Mohwak Warrior" can walk into my kitchen, light a fire and a call it Sacred. They now own it?
  3. We stopped glorifying Generals and military victories? Since when? Is this why the US has Memorial Day and Veteran's Day? BTW The Great War was a giant waste of time and lives. WW2 was fought for nobel reasons.
  4. That's all very silly. A church is private property BTW.
  5. The Oilers are starting a goalie that played for the Jets the last time they were in Winnipeg. I like the Oilers, I'd cheer for them second to any Canadian team. Shows how sucking for years can help a team out.
  6. So Rich one percenters are backing you?
  7. Lot's of ifs in that post. Can't predict any of it. Kessel has historically been good with a quality center. Even a Skeptic has to admit that that Burke has made some really good moves. Wilson acknowledged they can't move at this clip all season and he wants to load up on as many points as the team can before they hit a rough patch. I never said the Leafs were a lock for the Cup but they're relevant now.
  8. Sacred Fire. I hear they also tried to get people not to film their fire. So you support forcibly removing gang bangers in Jane and Finch?
  9. They just started a rookie goalie and got 38 saves out of him. Gustavson has been fine and there's no reason the believe Reimer has lost anything from last year when he comes back from his injury. They have a problem now because they have to many decent goalies. Even if Lupul or Kessel disappear you got MaCarthur, Graboski, Lombardi and this new kid Crab that are all producing their fare share of offense.
  10. Like em or hate em. They're Canada's team. And as of November 4th they're tied with Pittsburgh for tops in the Leage. They have 2 of the top 5 offensive players in the league and as of last night with Ben Scriven's amazing performance, they have 3 Quality Goaltenders. Are the Leafs for real?
  11. How about the Mohawk Warriors starting a huge bondfire in the middle of this park. Is that cool? The city of Toronto is so litigious about requiring permits for everything but not requiring one for this. I also like how no one cares about those 99%er businesses around the area, that are no doubt losing business because no one in their right mind would go to this park for a nice leisurely walk.
  12. BTW if you think this is a worthy "war" then why praytell aren't you camped out there?
  13. Dood why don't you go all V for Vendetta and blow up Queen's Park or the BMO building then. That'll be bitching.
  14. I made that point earlier. The one in Georgetown, Ontario has a freakin' howitzer on it.
  15. Yes but people who are ambivalent or even mildly supportive will see those actions and turn against you. Is this the type of things Occupiers talk about while chilling in that park all day?
  16. Wow that's an awesome opinion. Harass people at their homes because they don't approve of public squatting. That'll get the public on your side.
  17. At what pay grade do you become 1%?
  18. Is there any evidence that's what it is? plus this was to be held the day before Remembrance Day.
  19. Sometimes you need a hook. As shocking as it may be to imagine but kids don't automatically find history interesting.
  20. Right now they're only really making news because they're squatting in a public park they're not saying anything we haven't heard by many people already.
  21. Or they could have both. A Veteran talking about and showing people the instruments they used. Can't a veteran, who actually lived through the events, provide satisfactory context to the hardware being displayed? Heck it might even make otherwise disinterested students interested in history. Because, you know, guns are cool and stuff.
  22. I could agree with that notion if the event was being proposed and had never been done before. But this same event has been going on, I assume in a similar manner, for 19 years. What's so different this year? We go to museums to see historical things in the person, up close. It would be interesting and informative for these students for those things to be brought to them.
  23. And you think that's cool? I don't think the wartorn country excuse is a decent one actually. It's the job of the school to educate the student why we remember the wars Canada has been involved with any why the consensus is they were nobel ventures. Canada wouldn't be the country it is if we hadn't fought the wars we have.
  24. I wonder if it'll actually reach a point where boys won't be able to play with toy guns anymore I did. Generations past have. For the vast majority of kids it's a harmless way to grow up, it's just good fun. But then again they have violent video games to fill that void now.
  25. So why else would they ban historical guns? They aren't an immediate threat to the students. It's not like one of them is going to go rogue pick one up and start mowing students down.
