stopstaaron Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 I'm not really against water boarding / torture but I am against Dick Cheney and his phoney war in Iraq. Glad he's staying on the other side of the border. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cybercoma Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 So when do we send NATO troops in to help the rebels? NATO should send troops to the US to support the Occupy rebels that are still being assaulted by a police regime that doesn't believe in free-speech.

BC, if the US would look after THEIR own people and keep out of other countries business, unless asked, perhaps the world would see more peace in the world. As far as what happen in London, it was wrong, but YOU shouldn't talk or do you want to talk about the US in the 1960's or were you born yet?

Shady Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 If the left had their way, they'd make it so everyone that they disagree with wouldn't speak in Canada. In this case, it's just a pre-emptive shout down, which would have happened anyways. It's all part of their tolerance, and willingness to hear other ideas.

I don't blame him and you are right on the money.The last time he 'spoke' in Canada he was held for 7 hours before the lefties would disperse enough to allow safe exit from the venue.

Wow! When you pile it THAT high aren't you worried that it will tip over on you. Seems to me the REAL 'assault' on rebels is happening in Syria, Egypt, Iran...... Western countries have rights for law which demands response if laws are broken by so called demonstrators, some with malicious intent. The USA like other democratic countries,is conceding occupiers latitude for demonstration and free speech within public laws OUR laws and constraints which the police are duly expected to enforce. Your assessment is rather jejune and whiny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah...there would still be Canadian strike aircraft dropping bombs in other countries to "protect human rights". Thanks for the peace!!

But I haven't seen any quotes from him saying it's "too dangerous;" that seems to be the media's take on it. Unless you can provide a quote for me?

Since his heart problems hasn't improved with age, I would imagine that's a concern. At any rate, it's his decision to make - and again, Canada isn't the Mayberry you seem to think it is. Furthermore, I'm becoming less and less impressed with Canada's "tolerance" regarding giving everyone a voice.

Rioting because your favorite sports team lost the match is quite different from people protesting against the government for valid reasons. My analysis stands.

This from the guy who said the Soviets were doing "world peace a favour" when they invaded Afghanistan. The Soviets were doing a fine job there stopping Islmaic radicals/terrorists.However Reagen/Thatcher just could not say hey you Soviets are doing world peace a favour.

Moonlight Graham Posted March 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 A bit hilarious that some (moronic) American neighbour of mine can't travel back into Canada because he has a domestic abuse charge on his record, yet Cheney here can seemingly come and go as he pleases. I don't think Cheney should be allowed in Canada without authorities arresting him for war crimes, and hopefully be tried and rot in The Hague. Kony Cheney 2012.
