Livid and Enraged

[przed]

I am thoroughly disgusted with our police force, and the politicians who are apparently falling all over themselves to justify this sort of behaviour.

It's a good thing I didn't see any police today, because I was determined to go up to one and tell them how thoroughly I have lost faith in them. And given the crap going on, it would probably be even odds for whether I was arrested.

And here's a link to a press conference of a freelance reporter who was beaten by police, arrested, and thrown into the temporary detention facility they set up not ten minutes from my house, where he talks about the appalling conditions in the facility, and the way to police were bald-facedly attempting to intimidate protesters from using their right to free speech.

I'm thoroughly pissed at all our leaders. McGuinty and his secret laws. David Miller, apparently losing his balls and giving the standard "I stand behind our police" speech. At least one of the mayoral candidates, who's also giving the police the thumbs up.

And let us not speak of Stephen Fucking Harper, the fuckwit who thought staging this useless photo op would be such a peachy keen idea. Twat.
