Bloody Idiots

Stockwell Day, making fence posts look like geniuses:

Public Safety Minister Stockwell Day says he wishes Canadians were as outraged over impaired driving deaths as they are over the death of a Polish immigrant shot with a Taser by police.


Perhaps our illustrious Public Safety Minister can let us all know how he’s decided that drunk drivers should be allowed to walk around after killing people rather than the current practice of throwing them into jail.  And while he’s at it, maybe he can explain the Conservative’s government plan to put these drunken killers on the payroll for the task of protecting us!

I mean, think about this for a moment.  Our government is telling us that we should view the actions of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police in exactly the same light as we would view the actions of a group of convicted felons.

Apparently, the Conservative Party thinks that the RCMP is no better than a pack of criminal thugs and we shouldn’t get so upset when they act like it.  So much for their “law and order” agenda.

Canadians think quite a bit higher of the RCMP, which is why we’re so upset that they’re not living up to those expectations.
