Manufacturing Dissent - Uncovering Michael Moore


Armed Black Hosers

Posted by Lee on 08/23/05 at 12:37 AM

As we all know from listening to Michael Moore, Canada is a gun-free Utopia, where nobody ever locks their doors because they have free health care and everyone loves each other.  And their gun registry program is exactly the type of proactive crime fighting measure that we should have in the USA, if it wasn’t for the gun lunatics buying off our corrupt politicians.  This is the Michael Moore world, and like all things in Mooreland it’s completely wrong.

A Toronto city councillor is floating a controversial idea on curbing gun violence in the city.

Michael Thompson says police should be allowed to “target” young black men at random as part of a crackdown on guns.

Mr. Thompson, who is black, said a large percentage of the guns being used and a large number of people being killed are in the black community, so there is a need to target people in the community.

He said he is not calling for police to pull people over just because they are black but because gun violence is affecting the black community.

Deputy police chief Keith Forde, who is also black, says chief Bill Blair would “never, ever agree to that.”

There have been 30 gun-related deaths in Toronto among the 44 homicides in the city so far this year.

But how can this be?  Crime is going down in the US, yet we’re awash with guns.  Canada, which restricts private ownership of handguns and requires registration, is experiencing a rash of gun violence.  Why, it’s almost as if reality is the polar opposite of what Mikey wants you to believe. 

Also note the novel solution proposed by the city councillor.  Racial profiling?  Puh-lease.  This is the proverbial elephant in the drawing room.  The problem is Canada’s asinine prohibition on handguns, which results (gasp!) in an increase in gun violence, exactly as it has everywhere else in the world.  Meanwhile, in capitalist violence-loving Amerikkka, the knuckledraggers have been enacting concealed carry laws all over the country, yet gun violence continues to go down.

A pattern here?  You be the judge.  Good thing they’re in Canada.  At least after you get shot you can get free medical care, and someone else will pay for it.

One more observation: isn’t it interesting how blacks in Canada are referred to as “blacks” and not African-Canadians?
