All out to 52 Division - Brutalization and Arrest of Protestors Continues

During a Toronto Palestinian Protest this afternoon, Toronto Police Officers brutalized and arrested a protester

They knocked him to the ground, punched and kicked repeatedly on the head, and put a knee on him neck, circling him as protestors recorded them, yelling at them to get back.

They wore white bicycle helmets, black jackets, and masks that covered everything but their eyes

Major grassroots organizations such as Palestinian youth movement, pymtoronto and Toronto Muslims have called on the community to go to the 52 division to shame them over their repeated brutalizations of protestors.

The protestor has been in police custody ever since with the community rallying Division 52 - 255 Dundas St W) for his release, still present as of reporting

To participate- call 416 808 5200 to demand the protestors release.

First of all, Damian Lewis? As Rob Ford? 

Secondly, why on Earth did they change the gender of the reporter? She’s pretty well known, at least here in Toronto. Did they already have “too many” women i the cast? Ugh.

Banal.

If there is a current personification of that particular concept, I’d argue that it could well be the putative ‘mayor’ of my fair town.

The origin of the word lies in the system of feudalism- and pertains to those things associated with the ‘common people’- specifically the services they were compelled to carry out under the direction of an overlord from the…

Communications: The truth will set you free

Jeff Lake, APR

“Do you solemnly swear to tell the whole truth and nothing but the truth?"

This is the oath used to swear in people testifying in a trial. It’s a standard upheld in court systems across North America, with strict penalties for lying under oath.

If that’s the case, then why can’t we hold our elected officials to the same standard?

Under all circumstances, especially in a crisis, the truth will set you free. The biblical reference is relevant because there is no other alternative.

As we have seen with the recent foibles of Toronto’s mayor, those who seek to deny and deceive often become bigger victims if they choose not to tell the whole truth, even under embarrassing circumstances.

It’s worth noting what Florida Republican Rep. Henry “Trey” Radel did this week when he checked himself into a rehabilitation centre after pleading guilty to a misdemeanor charge of cocaine possession receiving a year’s probation.

He said in a statement he is seeking treatment and counseling for his drug and alcohol abuse. “It is my hope, through this process, I will come out a better man,” Radel said. “I will work hard to gain back the trust and support of my constituents, friends and most importantly, my family.”

Radel called a late-night press conference to announce he is taking a leave of absence from Congress and donating his salary to charity.

“I’m not going to sit here and make any excuses for what I’ve done,” he told reporters. “I have let down our country. I’ve let down our constituents. I’ve let down my family, including my wife. And even though he doesn’t know it, I’ve let down my 2-year-old son.”

He may be in rehab, but Radel is a free man because he told the truth.
