G20 repeat

Why should I give a poot about foreign countries when here are plenty of crises going on right here.   In fact, to heck with anything happening there. There is no there. There is only here. Ok.

The truth is, that no amount of protesting is going to make a damned bit of difference regardless of what we do, so why bother trying? Big Brother is always watching you and will act very severely if you make the slightest slip-up.   Google Earth will soon become Google live-feed.   There are photo radar stations popping up everywhere, causing more accidents and more injuries and fatalities issuing from them, or as a very sinister form of cash-grab political taxpayer-bilking!   And they claim it’s a safety issue?   BULL SHIT!   It’s a blatant cash-grab, purely and unadulterated.

Another example was at the G20 summit last week in T-Zero.   Many innocent people were arrested, some of them simply for being in the wrong place at the wrong time.   Many businesses were damaged by the black bloc terrorists, who were, no doubt, put in place to cause trouble and to give the police an excuse.   The government will most likely not help pay to repair the damages.
They could have met somewhere remote, but politicians are generally egomaniacs and therefore want to be seen.

But enough about that!

I need to somehow make this somewhat longer.   It’s very late and I need to get up very early for work tomorrow. I know. At the risk of repeating myself, I’ll repeat myself.

Please, do not become paranoid, but there is always some governmental Big Brother who’s watching you and will act very severely if you make the slightest slip-up.   Google Earth will soon become Google live-feed.   There are photo radar stations popping up everywhere, causing more accidents and more injuries and fatalities issuing from them, or as a very sinister form of cash-grab political taxpayer-bilking!   And they claim it’s a safety issue? BULL SHIT! It’s a blatant cash-grab, pure and unadulterated. In any way, shape or form.

Another example was at the G20 summit last week in Toronto.   Toronto is not exactly an innocent city. Many innocent people were arrested, however, not everyone was.   Some of those arrested were arrested simply because they were students, because they happened to wear black that day, or because their vehicle ha Quebec license plates, or for simply for being in the wrong place at the wrong time.   Many businesses were damaged by the black bloc terrorists, which consisted largely of police and military officers, who were, no doubt, put in place to cause trouble, and to give the police an excuse. The government will most likely not help pay to repair the damages.

Laurence Tenenbaum was born in Montreal, and has been involved in many areas and various scenes including but not limited to,the Montreal Music scene, the Montreal Spoken Word / Poetry scene, the Montreal Visual Art scene and has attended many automotive shows. While he should a happy and well-adjusted individual, with a combination of ADD, Gout, A type "A" personality, and the massive tonnage of BS dumped onto him on a constant basis often makes him seem angry and irritable. However he's usually correct in his frustrations, especially when they're directed at assorted things that aggrivate him and many other people too. he therefore brings you "Laurence Rants," a chance to vent his and all our collective frustrations. so if something frustrates, irritates or just plain confuses him, and he thinks other people can relate to it, it just might end up in one of Laurence's Rants. *** *** *** *** *** Annoying legalese-type fine print *** *** *** *** *** *** -- The opinions expressed in Laurence's Rants are the views of the author(s) and do not necessarily reflect the views of Forget the Box Media, Its sponsors, or anyone else.
