David Miller's Toronto -- bastion of perfidy and politically motivated stupidity, that it is -- has trudged one step further into the miasmic sludge of moral mastication with an insulting campaign to rid municipal vehicles of those unsightly "Support the Troops" magnets. Because gawd knows...the wretched and over-burdened citizenry of our fair city should not have to suffer the onslaught of constant reminder that we are engaged in battle for civilization, with a race of nihilistic bloodthirsty pedophiles...it is a tawdry affair, and we are all so much more refined and civilized than the imperialistic knuckle-draggers to the south of us, who wage war like it's the national sport.
So the Mayor (and I use the term loosely) gets a few phone calls from ungracious ninnies who's sensibilities are tarnished by the very sight of a magnet on the back of a fire truck, and he scurries out to remove the offending barnacles, lest the City of Toronto be construed as in support of Canadian soldiers who fight and die so we have the freedom to be the ungrateful, contentious, callous whelps that we apparently are.
A city counselor tries to pass off the expected cop out that "Toronto council should not be using city vehicles to promote political messages that do not fall within its jurisdiction. The federal government calls the shots about Canada's involvement in Afghanistan." Then I take it, the Toronto city counsel wouldn't mind returning any and all federal money allocated towards the procurement and maintenance of those vehicles...or perhaps the City of Toronto would prefer to be extricated from federal affairs, all together...set adrift without obligation to the rest of the country -- and without dipping their greedy little fingers into my wallet for that endless supply of tax dollars.
Probably not.
The fact that a handful of litigious pansies with no better use for their time, would get into a lather at the very sight of a ribbon on the back of an ambulance and phone the Mayor's office to complain, just goes to show how far up their asses the citizens of Toronto really keep their heads.
It would explain the smell there.
