A marketing campaign? Seriously? This is how they want to fix the crime problem? Sweep it under the rug and pretend like it isn't happening? Isn't that how we got in this mess in the first place?

Decades of piss poor governance and the chickens are finally coming home to roost. Absolutely no one can make the claim that they didn't see this coming. They sat around (on airplanes, in hotel rooms, and in the backseats of luxury cars) for years and years, doing nothing more than providing short quotes to the news outlets about how they plan to tackle crime (and education, and corruption, and red tape), but instead continued their hedonistic lifestyles sucking on the public teat. Now suddenly the golden goose has collapsed, a tired, featherless barely breathing sad shell of it's former shelf, and they're left to wonder if maybe they should have eaten less caviar, or shown up for work more than once a month.

Cable? Singular? Meaning they have absolutely no redundancy or backups in place?

Do these people think before they speak? 'A 91% deficit isn't anything to worry about.' 'Being randomly arrested and locked up for a few days isn't anything to worry about.'

They'd rather play dress up while blocking traffic for thousands of people trying to get to work.

Do they have any idea how silly they look? The headline right next to this article points out that murder rates are up 150% over last year, while here we see that the Attorney General is busy prancing down Bay Street in a powdered wig. Is this a Monty Python skit, or a nation?

The latter would be most effective, and most humane.

How about we just admit that religion and these "churches" are all a farce, used to control people and accumulate wealth. Makes it much easier to deal with situations like this.

> I know there is a sector of our society that are saying to themselves – and perhaps to those around them - ‘good riddance, let these thugs and criminals kill each other off.’ But such a view is cold to the fact that each one of these are human lives; someone’s son, brother, father, uncle or friend and a soul that God loves.

Yup. They've demonstrated that they are incapable of living within a society. They need to be removed from society. If God loves them so much, he can love them after they've left this Earth.

This is a sad, sad day.
