A Resounding No!

  • November 12, 2011

I’m on my way home after attending the Meet the Candidates at the Kitsilano Neighbourhood House. I submitted a question for all candidates:

“Is it acceptable to use Riot Squads to shutdown Occupy Vancouver?”

My question was lost in the crowd, so wasn’t discussed. So, I Politely insisted my question be answered at the end.

The room stopped, my question was taken seriously, and then, like dominos- no!, no!, no!….

So, there you have it.  They were all on video, and not a single person on the board even dared to disagree!

So, can we now ask the Black Bloc to retire!   ;-)

Some motivational speech from a man who’s words are worth….

  • November 12, 2011

I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o’er vales and hills,
When all at once I saw a crowd,
A host, of golden daffodils;
Beside the lake, beneath the trees,
Fluttering and dancing in the breeze.

Continuous as the stars that shine
And twinkle on the milky way,
They stretched in never-ending line
Along the margin of a bay:
Ten thousand saw I at a glance,
Tossing their heads in sprightly dance.

The waves beside them danced; but they
Out-did the sparkling waves in glee:
A poet could not but be gay,
In such a jocund company:
I gazed—and gazed—but little thought
What wealth the show to me had brought:

For oft, when on my couch I lie
In vacant or in pensive mood,
They flash upon that inward eye
Which is the bliss of solitude;
And then my heart with pleasure fills,
And dances with the daffodils.

Occupy myself…

  • November 12, 2011

Something enormous is happening inside of me, I can’t wait to share it with you all.

But, first, I have to very special girls to take care of.  Spent my night building dioramas to remind them both how much they mean to me.

Love you all…

Is The Pope Catholic?

  • November 12, 2011

Globe & Mail:  “Vancouver fire officials say Occupy site isn’t safe”

Vancouver Sun: “We are co-operating,’ Occupy protesters say – and fire chief agrees”

 CBC: “Occupy Vancouver complies with fire chief’s demands”

Dear MSM,

Are you F#$%ING kidding me?

Of course, camping is a risky business for the  unprepared.  We all understand that. This is what motivated us to engage the VFD to create a fire plan!

You are missing the real story here- that people in our movement are willing to endure great discomfort, and accept physical/social/economic risks  in exchange for a free democracy!

What is your personal contribution?

Sincerely,
Occupy Vancouver/Toronto/Montreal/Calgary/Edmonton/Moncton/Victoria/Moscow/Wall Street /Zimbabwe /Mars….

Why Does Media Coop Keep Releasing Agitation?

  • November 11, 2011

Why does the Media Coop keep publishing videos that allude to police violence or violence towards the police? Is this sort of subversion not illegal? What is their connection to Harsha Walia? And what is the connection with W2?
