More Terror Busts In London

Let the rout continue. I imagine it’s almost like shooting fish in a barrel once you start busting out the computers and past communications between terror cells and their masters.

LONDON — Police have arrested 14 people in anti-terrorism raids, saying Saturday they suspected the men had been involved in training and recruiting for terror.

The arrests in London late Friday and early Saturday were not linked to the alleged plot to bomb trans-Atlantic airliners or to the July 2005 bomb attacks on London’s transport network, the capital’s Metropolitan Police said. They declined to give details of what the suspects were believed to have done, other than saying they were arrested as part of an investigation into terror training and recruitment.

The raids followed months of surveillance and investigation, police said.

The 14 people, arrested on suspicion of the commission, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism, were being held in central London, police said. Officers were searching an unspecified number of homes around the capital, they added.

It’s nice to know this is not related to the previous busts and that we are catching more and more of the bastards.

Veterans Put Union To Shame – Another Proud Victory

Several months ago I blogged about a union complaint over a city councillors aide cleaning up a steaming pile of shhhhhhaving cream on the floor in the city’s main library.

In Scugog, a councillor had lowered a flag to half mast on a Saturday and the local union filed a grievance stating that this was a union responsibility. After getting lashed from the veterans groups, the union has decided to withdraw the grievance.
I am pleased to see that there is still hope and sanity in the world.

Safe Injection But No Safe Inhalation

I just read a post and a dozen or so comments at Jesse Gritter’s blog regarding safe injection clinics. And although I usually share many views Jesse has, I have to say that in this case I have to disagree.

Something is definately wrong in this country when we ostracize smokers, boot them out of every government building, out of every restaurant and push the smokers off hospital property to have a smoke but we provide a nice cushy private room with a sink and free needles for heroin addicts to shoot up.

Think about that. We are punishing those who put taxes into the government coffers by using a legal substance and we give law breaking heroin addicts a nice cushy place to shoot an illegal substance into their veins.

And now the Harper government is giving the clinics enough money to stay open for at least another year.

Why Stephen…..why????

I Guess I Am Not The Only One Thinking We Are Getting Screwed

I would love to think I inspired this artwork, but with the cost of the stamp at 49 cents I think it was created before my blog as the price of sending a letter in Canada is higher these days.

The below stamp can be found at CaledoniaWakeupCall.com

Now I have been toying with the idea of a new logo. So far my terrible paint shop pro skills have garnered this.

Caledonia Natives Hurt In Fire, Medicine Man Invisible As They Get Taken To Tax Payers Hospital

There was a fire in one of the partially built homes on the disputed land in Caledonia. You can read about this in the Hamilton Spectator

In an effort to further piss off those supporting this land claim I would like to ask “Where is the medicine man?”

Six Nations Fire Chief Michael Seth said the blaze in the unfinished home had been extinguished by the time his firefighters arrived at the Argyle Street South property. He said the injured were people on the site, “that were fighting the fire prior to our arrival.”

They suffered smoke inhalation and were taken to hospital.

In my opinion, our health care system is a co-op. We all pay taxes into it, and we all get a certain amount of free healthcare. Yet natives are tax exempt.

I am expecting some major backlash in my comments on this one but I really couldn’t care less. I think we are all here in Canada as equals, only some are treated more equal than others. My goal is to expose the inequalities and this is a big one.

Robin Williams – Politically A Right Of Center Isolationist

(via email from my sister)

I am trying to figure out if this email I received has info that is pre or post Robin Williams checking himself into rehab, but in any case this is worth the read. I am also still trying to figure out if his views are left of center or right of center. My feelings are that he is definately right of center and an isolationist, with a few left of center points tossed in to the mix.

Check this out.

His T-shirt says “I Love New York” in Arabic. Only Robin.

“I see a lot of people yelling for peace but I have not heard of a plan for peace. So, here’s one plan.”

1) “The US will apologize to the world for our “interference” in their affairs, past & present. You know, Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin, Tojo, Noriega, Milosevic, Hussein, and the rest of those “good ole boys”, we will never “interfere” again.

2) We will withdraw our troops from all over the world, starting with Germany , South Korea , the Middle East , and the Philippines. They don’t want us there. We would station troops at our borders. No one allowed sneaking through holes in the fence.

3) All illegal aliens have 90 days to get their affairs together and leave. We’ll give them a free trip home. After 90 days the remainder will be gathered up and deported immediately, regardless of whom or where they are. They’re illegal!!! France will welcome them.

4) All future visitors will be thoroughly checked and limited to 90 days unless given a special permit!!!! No one from a terrorist nation will be allowed in. If you don’t like it there, change it yourself and don’t hide here. Asylum would never be available to anyone. We don’t need any more cab drivers or 7-11 cashiers.

5) No foreign “students” over age 21. The older ones are the bombers. If they don’t attend classes, they get a “D” and it’s back home baby.

6) The US will make a strong effort to become self-sufficient energy wise. This will include developing nonpolluting sources of energy but will require a temporary drilling of oil in the Alaskan wilderness. The caribou will have to cope for a while ..

7) Offer Saudi Arabia and other oil producing countries $10 a barrel for their oil. If they don’t like it, we go someplace else. They can go somewhere else to sell their production. (About a week of the wells filling up the storage sites would be enough.)

8) If there is a famine or other natural catastrophe in the world, we will not “interfere.” They can pray to Allah or whomever, for seeds, rain, cement or whatever they need. Besides most of what we give them is stolen or given to the army. The people who need it most get very little, if anything.

9) Ship the UN Headquarters to an isolated island someplace. We don’t need the spies and fair weather friends here. Besides, the building would make a good homeless shelter or lockup for illegal aliens.

10) All Americans must go to charm and beauty school. That way, no one can call us “Ugly Americans” any longer. The Language we speak is ENGLISH…learn it.or LEAVE…Now, isn’t that a winner of a plan?

“The Statue of Liberty is no longer saying “Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses.” She’s got a baseball bat and she’s yelling, ‘you want a piece of me?’ “

Let 'em Freeze In Caledonia

So now that the evenings are getting a tad cool, the natives who took over the housing development in Caledonia are looking for donations so they can finish off the homes that were started.

Janie Jameson, spokeswoman for the protesters, says no one wants to see the half-built houses “rot away” when they could be used for shelter during the winter.

She says protesters also need non-perishable food and warm clothing to help them maintain their occupation, which she says will only end when the land is returned to the Six Nations people.

I say let ’em freeze. Janie doesn’t know what she’s talking about. I would be glad to see the half built homes rot away and I am a part owner considering my tax dollars paid for the land and the half built homes. Let ’em build their own longhouses.

Considering a judge has ruled they must leave the land until the dispute is settled, I think that anyone donating to keep them there is aiding and abetting criminal activity and should be charged.

The OPP may be to chickenshit to get the natives off the land, but they certainly wouldn’t be too chickenshit to arrest some left leaning Canadian who would give these criminals comfort.

I think summer camp for these natives may be coming to an end as I predicted.

John Mark Something Or Other Distracts MSM From Real News

The swarm was hot for two weeks.

Every major news agency had press following every move of John Mark Karr. CNN and others were even so blind that they were broadcasting what he ate on his flight over the ocean, how many times he went potty and what flavour toothpaste he brushed with.

They let us know that he wears boxers over briefs, that he enjoys washing his hair twice with shampoo before applying a single layer of conditioner. They even let us know he has owned two cats, a dog, two guinea pigs and three hamsters in his life and that he prefers ribbed vs. non ribbed condoms.

They let us know he is allergic to bee stings but loves mixed nuts, enjoys a nice bordeaux with his seafood and that he actually likes the taste of orange juice right after brushing his teeth.

We found out he was a bed wetter until he was 13, that his favourite colour is fuschia and that he was in his high schools version of Grease, where he played the role of Kanicky.

Ok, so all the bullshit above was made up by me. I paid absolutely no attention to this guy other than to flip the station or turn the page everytime his name appeared in the press.

Why the media circus for two weeks?

I think something big just happened somewhere and not one reporter was available to cover it thanks to this story.

ADDENDUM  JMK prefers Tim Hortons 12 grain bagels to low fat blue berry muffins.  His blood type is O positive.  He has a mole on his left buttock and a small birthmark in the shape of a sickle on his right thight.  He is circumcised.  He was a virgin until he was 17, and his first three girlfriends were named Carmen, Jacqueline and Soulesha.  He has never been married but has his patterns picked out.  He enjoys playing badminton with traditional wood racquets instead of the new carbon fiber.  His eye sight is perfect but before he had laser surgery his astygmatism was +2.25 in his right eye and -1.50 in his left eye.  He is also reported to have put dimes in his penny loafers in his youth to be different.

(ok, sorry, I woke up ornery over this and felt like writing more bullshit about the guy)

Ernesto Meet Gitmo – Gitmo Meet Ernesto

I’m not sure how to read this one but this morning while watching CNN, I noticed this image of Ernesto.

gbay2.jpg

You will notice Hurricane/Tropical Storm Ernesto pummeling the eastern tip of Cuba.

I then pulled this off of Google Earth.

gbay1.jpg

You will notice on the south east tip of Cuba is were Guantanamo Bay and the US military base is.

I also recall watching a special on the conditions of the prisoners at Camp X-Ray at Gitmo where many POWs are kept and recalled the outdoor type jail cells.

gbay3.jpg

I’m not saying we should be worried about this but it makes you wonder if this isn’t a great way to knock off a bunch of prisoners and then blame it on mother nature.

If anyone knows what they do with prisoners during hurricanes, I would be glad to alter this post or add the information.

Environmentalistas Missed Protesting Olympics As Global Warmers

Ok, so maybe the title of the post is a bit misleading. Or is it?

After seeing this child, I had to point out the following.

When you ride a bicycle, you generate heat. Your body warms up as you burn calories. You vent most of it out through your head as every Canadian child is taught as a youngster. (wear your hat and all that).

So why do environmentalistas not complain about the heat being generated by bicycle riders? Or worse. Why are they not protesting outside the Olympic games?? How about at triathlons? Do you know how much the water is warmed with all those swimmers? Do they not know how much that can melt our polar ice caps?? For shame.

Ok, so my tongue is in my cheek. But one day soon, I will get enough energy up to burn on presenting some laws of conservation of energy and laws of thermodynamics.
