As I mentioned on the "Mainland post " about donuts-concerned drivers , there are some very intense issues on the horizon for all Canadians and your off-spring, & even your wallet , to contend with .
I've been in conversations and some online petitions and letters with these .
Here are two , pick them apart at your will, and forward to others please.

And one other note from a people hard-put -upon by Police abuse in the past ...
http://www.cbc.ca/news/technology/story/2011/10/10/world-germany-denies-malware-accusations.html
...quoted ..."Germany, with its ignominious history of Nazi and Stasi surveillance on citizens, now has some of the strongest privacy safeguards in the world. The country’s Federal Constitutional Court in 2008 forbade the state from using surreptitious software to infiltrate people’s computers except under highly restricted circumstances.
The hacker group’s statement says its analysis reveals “once again that law enforcement agencies will overstep their authority if not watched carefully. In this case functions clearly intended for breaking the law were implemented in this malware: they were meant for uploading and executing arbitrary code on the targeted system."
-------------------
So why the F*#k do we Canadians and Americans tolerate any form of surveillance that is put upon us with the unchecked endorsemant of the Police /RCMP/CSIS ???

..."I don't even know who I am anymore," she told Seglins. "It's just really bad. I just feel really bad. I don't know what to do. I guess I'm still in shock and I haven't been able to come out of it."

It is unfortunate that many people will opt to play games and put on blinders and go on with life ignoring some very egregious wrongs , and still , there are those like myself that put our necks on the line and are outspoken about Bureaucratic and political and law-enforcement abuses.
I find it difficult to accept that one Human next door , next city, or on internet can overlook the pain another fellow Human has suffered at the hands of those Sworn to protect us.

Yeah, you are really "putting your neck on the line" when you post nonsensical messages on about "abuses" on a hiking website. You are just like Che Guevara!
Tell me, what does the investigation and prosecution of a psychopathic serial killer have to do with a "police state".
Actually, don't attempt to explain - I already have a headache this morning. |

Read the whole story , DPM , and try to empathize with the female victim and the look past your favoritism of the Police , at how how she was abused and misjudged by the police [ police are not to judge or take hearsay as gospel of a person's character ].
What I do and say and inform and lobby to others off-line is none-of -your current business.
If you cannot fathom the other Links and the warnings they contain for a "free-canada" then I can only come up with one or two or three suppositions of your character or mental prowess .
Sorry .
Police , are not supposed to hurt us or invade our privacy.
That simple . |

more fodder for thought ...
quote...Immediately after the shootings, Dudley’s neighbour called the RCMP to report he’d heard several gunshots and the sound of a crash coming from the home.
The officer who responded, Const. Mike White, soon arrived near the property, but never got out of his car and did not talk to the man who’d made the 911 call.
White left the scene a few minutes later, reporting he’d found nothing suspicious.
Four days after the gunshots were heard, another neighbour peered into the house through a window and saw the body of McKay, 33. Paramedics were called and found Dudley, 37, still alive, but she died before reaching the hospital.
[ Const. White has since been promoted to Corporal ]

I don't think he's smart enough to be a troll. He's certainly not educated enough to form a coherent thought.
Just do like everybody else. Click 'ignore'. |

Interesting item just came across the radio today, the BWSS is lending out support for the female members of all police services, particularly the RCMP,inlight of overwhelming requests for help.
Shame on the Law for hurting their colleagues, let alone the public, and shame on the few CT members that support abuse through ridicule.
What's that bullying acronym?... RIDS... ridicule,isolation,etc.

n.b., the offer of support is also aimed towards wives & husbands of LEO's, apparently spousal abuse is 2.8 times the average in those relationships too, I read earlier this year.
Less abuse, and the ability of a reformed RCMP in BC with Unionship would eventually equate into better service for the public and the members with less abuse towards society being the trickle down effect. |

Oh, you may also want to do some research into the law of defamation...writing that someone is a member of the Stasi qualifies as libel...no worries though, I'll defend your right to spout your nonsense...however, I (and others) are not compelled to actually listen to it...plus, it's probably not really worth suing you...I'm pretty sure it would be what we lawyers call a "hollow judgment".
edit: corrected for drunken hilarity. |

As I said earlier, you can buy me a beer or two.
Some of your insults could be construed as a Hate Crime, if anti-bullying activists like Lady Gaga has proposed and I support |

I think you need to check the definition of "hate crime" (but, of course, research is not part of how you roll, is it?).
Now, off you go, back to surfing. |

copy Jan 26 2012
A construction worker from Vancouver's Downtown Eastside is suing the Vancouver Police Department for excessive use of force after his leg was ripped open by a police dog during his arrest.
Christopher Evans, 33, claims he needed 100 staples to close the wounds on his leg following the attack on June 12, 2011 on the city's Downtown Eastside, according to a statement issued by Doug King, a lawyer with the Pivot Legal Society.
King makes no excuses for Evans's behaviour the night he was arrested, saying Evans had been visiting his sister and was trying to get home when he became frustrated with buses passing him by.
Evans admits he smashed the front of a bus with his skateboard and shattered the glass door of another bus.
Christopher Evans, a 33-year-old resident of the Downtown Eastside, was bitten by the dog on June 12, 2011 after he was suspected of breaking a window on a Vancouver city bus. (Pivot Legal Society)
He claims shortly afterwards he was he was skateboarding in a Downtown Eastside alleyway when he was surprised by a police dog and was bitten several times before police pulled off the dog.
Pictures issued by Pivot appear to show his leg torn open in at least two places, and the staples that closed the wounds.
"I know it was a stupid decision, and I shouldn't have hit the bus, but the repercussions were way overboard. They shouldn't have responded like that," he said in a statement issued on Thursday morning.
Evans was initially charged with mischief, but Crown prosecutors stay the charges after seeing the extent of his injuries, according to King.
The Vancouver Police department has not yet been reached for comment.
Use of police dogs questioned
According to Pivot, half the injuries reported by municipal police in B.C. during arrests are because of dog bites.
Municipal police departments in B.C. are required to report all incidents when a person in custody or care of police suffers an injury that requires medical treatment. There were a total of 346 such incidents between March 2010 and Jan 2012 reported, according to the Office of the Police Complaints Commissioner. (CBC)
Figures from the Office for Police Complaints show there have been more than 160 cases involving police dog bites in B.C. the past two years and six have resulted in official complaints.
"We have to think of the cost of all of this, not only to the person being bitten by the dog but the enormous health care costs spent treating unnecessary injuries," said King.
He believes Vancouver Police need to retrain their dogs to stop using the bite and hold technique and to use a bark and hold method, which has been adopted in several U.S. cities, instead.
King also would like police forces in B.C. to rethink the way they deploy dog squads.
"When the first responder becomes an individual with his police dog, in a lot cases it seems almost inevitable a bite will take place."
"I think what we need to do is start looking as the police dog squad as more of a speciality unit, and not as a first responder arresting type unit, because it's very difficult for them to do it without injury," he said.
Pivot says it will serve the lawsuit on the City of Vancouver this morning.
