So when will Toronto, scrap this serially wrong political policeman?
How many gang bangers use long guns….really. Bill Blair has the typical police mentality where all citizens are potential killers and only police should have guns. Cops thrive on power trips.
From the chief of a police service that had to be tipped off by Dutch police that Ben Levin was part of an international ring of child pornographers while he had his Stasi wannabe cops following the mayor around and burning up taxpayer’s money in overtime. Great police work Chief bLiar. Good to know you got your priorities straight. Hard to believe Toronto pays this guy $300,000 a year. Wow.
Convicting a Mayor in the court of public opinion should be a firing offence.
I’d prefer it to be a hanging offence myself (some things are indeed that serious), but I suspect in the New Peoples’s Republic of Nice I shall have to settle for firing.
Hard to have respect for a Chief of Police who shows his political bent.
blair is a political appointee, david miller’s attack dog. he was put in place to investigate conservatives, Toronto police are now just as politicized as rcmp or the totally corrupt opp
police are not your friend, they are armed agents of the state.
next cra will be investigating all large donors to the conservatives
Under Miller, bLiar had his “police” officers searching the homes of elderly gun owners to try to catch them with unsafe storage. He didn’t get one person. A waste of time, money, and resources. And if you want to read up on a very interesting story of an elderly gun owner being assaulted by the Toronto Stasi look up the name Johnny Sombrero. It will open your eyes to how little regard to public safety these people have when they feel justified in stepping on our rights.
“…Hard to believe Toronto pays this guy $300,000 a year. …”
He’s getting $300k/year, it’d be hard to believe it was from any employer but Toronto.
1. Despite Toronto police chief Bill Blair’s assurance that scrapping the long-gun registry would make us “less safe”, shootings are down.
2. Despite xenophobes’ assurance that continuing immigration would make us less safe, shootings are down.
Yet in “Gun Ban” cities like Detroit or Chicago gun violence is up and up.
Personally I think Rob Ford had something to do with Toronto’s low gun crimes as well.
The Libtards can’t have it both ways.
Let’s not forget that Bill Blair also suspended constitutional rights during the G20 summit a few years back.
Police chiefs know their dough filters through lefty bureaucrats
and follow the party line. Gun control registers make it easy to
escalate police violence and intimidate innocent people.
A more useful statistic would be the number of folks who show up
at hospitals with extra holes in their skin and no reasonable
explanation regarding what happened to cause them.
Good for you guys, it’s always nice to win one for the gipper.
Now, if we can just get ObamaCare repealed.
Gubmint union bureaufats with guns.
He should have been charged and fired for the G20 alone.
In a related issue – knockouts are now – finally – getting some press in the US. What has yet to be discussed is the knockout rate in concealed carry cities vs those that ban it. I would bet that the former has nearly nil events.
Yes indeed Rizwan…but other methods of murder are up, such as honour killings by drowning. Whatever could be the cause?
“other methods of murder are up, such as honour killings by drowning”
Please provide figures. How many honour killings took place in Canada in 2012?
Rizwan is correct. Proving once again what I’ve been saying for years. Mooselimbs are not the problem.
Lefties are the problem.
Now that we have that out of the way perhaps we could have a national media discussion – which could include this police chief – on the fact that Gamil Gharbi was muslim and the role this cult played in developing his attitude toward women.
Why do local politicians believe paying the highest salary provides the best person for the job. In my decades of hiring individuals, including three terms in municipal politics, the greatest success was hiring someone from within the system. This is if the system is working.
The promotion salary is consistent with the other employees; there is additional impetus on the younger employees who are ambitious and the hire from within is not trying to establish authority and credibility. My observation is the Senior Human Resources Staff push for an outsider, particularly one which will require a higher remuneration.
The higher remuneration means all salaries will grow, the trickle down effect, this makes the HR job easier and also makes the HR Department look busy and hopefully effective. Obviously in Toronto something is wrong.Cheers;
Blair has stepped out of his uniform to attack Ford on ideological grounds.
When the timing is right, that ideology will also take him out of his uniform.
He has forgotten who he works for….us.

“How many honour killings took place in Canada in 2012?”
Yes but if we could just save ONE!
“Honour killings on the rise in Canada: Study”

Honor Based Violence Awareness Network (HBVA)

“5000 honour killings internationally per year.” HBVA
Reported killings that is of course.
No matter, one “honour killing” is one too many, this country is not run by sharia law, women have rights, women are equal before and under our laws. The screwed up products of a theocratic state who involved in the killing of four that come to mind are in jail and that’s where they belong, if they are at some point set free after time served they should be deported.
“this country is not run by sharia law, women have rights, women are equal before and under our laws.”
Won’t be the case for long after LAS’s friends the Liberals get back in power and allow Sharia law in various enclaves in the country. McGuinty already tried to bring it in. Honour killings are a cultural thing you know.
Police chiefs are hired for their schooling and political connections, and have generally not worked their way up from gumshoe.
“New Peoples’s Republic of Nice”
Poifect! Love that!
So Blair spent a million dollars to uncover evidence that could convict Rob Ford of urinating in public. In my opinion, Blair is clearly an ass. I wonder how many drug dealers get to walk in exchange for testimony against his buddy Lisi for extortion? Lucky for us, drug dealers would never lie to stay out of jail.
Nobody I know of has stated that continued immigration would make us “less safe” per se.
Continued specific immigration to make up an impenetrable voting block is what those I’m familiar with are saying.
This could then lead to a leftist psychology that would destroy the free market to promote socialism. SOCIALISM is what will make us, and the world, less safe…and you know it.
I’m willing to bet that the next round of public shooting (just like the last) will be performed by a bunch of whelps raised in the projects by the second/third generation welfare mommas.
It will not involve middle aged or older white males or females with gun collections.
Gord, here is one guy that fought back as he carried a weapon. Even though we are just hearing about this “game” it has been going on for years and the victims are in the 1000’s with one black claiming 300. They call it polar bear hunting as they attack whites. I read yesterday that 2 blacks tried to knockout a white man but he had a knife and killed one and wounded the other. Their parent(s) and family blamed the guy with the knife stabbing their babies of 13 and 15, wonderful youths who with 8 of their fellow heroes had just attacked 2 girls in the park, breaking one girl’s arm.

Hey rIZZY, in England about a year ago there was a suicide by a young muslim lady, it was ruled accidental until some one informed the pohlees that it was an honor killing. The police then realized that they needed to re-investigate about 800 (I think the # was)that occurred over 12 years, and this in a country that had “ruled” India were there is a large # of honor killings. It’s a**holes like you that is the problem in these events. When you don’t know WTF you are talking about, maybe try STFU, thanx in advance!!!!
“…Bill Blair has the typical police mentality where all citizens are potential killers and only police should have guns.”
More likely that Blair has a typical Police Chief mentality. In other words, say whatever it takes to make you sound progressive. After all, it worked at all the promotional boards.
I did an interview on CBC last year when my last book came out, and when I pointed out to the interviewer that the Canadian prairie provinces in 2011 had, in every case, higher murder rates than their American neighbors, you could almost hear the brain implosing. Manitoba was especially so: 4.24/100,000 people, compared to 1.4/100,000 people in Minnesota.
And Minnesota “gun control” is essentially nothing compared to Canadian gun control. Pretty much any law-abiding adult can get a concealed carry permit (which also allows you to purchase handguns or assault weapons); no license to own handguns or assault weapons; no mandatory gun registration; no license to own or purchase the vast majority of long guns. And less than 1/3 the murder rate of its neighbor Manitoba.
Imploding, of course. Implosing sounds more painful.
