1. So when are the dippers going to name a stretch of the Vancouver island highway after him like they have done around Courtenay?

2. A lawyer said, “I disagree that a white judge should be telling Ms. Isak or any other Black person what is and is not racism.”

   The judge should call the lawyer into court and ask for a detailed explanation. Do it on a Friday and sentence him to 90 days in jail for contempt of court. That way he’ll be in jail at least until Monday.

3. That the defamer and the defamed are members of minority groups is not without irony but the nub of the case is this, I feel, –
   ‘Smith said Isak never made any effort to understand the facts behind the screenshot before posting about it. “She did not verify that this information was true,” Smith wrote. “She did not care at the time. She blindly embarked on a brutal and unempathetic campaign to destroy the lives of two young women, when the evidence clearly establishes that these two women are kind-hearted members of the community with outstanding character.” ‘
   The guilty woman, Solit Isak is planning to appeal the decision, her lawyer says “I disagree that a white judge should be telling Ms. Isak or any other Black person what is and is not racism.”
   Perhaps not over yet?

4. Those who would erect statues to depraved losers like George Floyd and worship his memory are depraved losers themselves. And yes, I’m looking at you, BLM thugs.

   1. Sounds racist! I love it.

5. Were all these “racists” hiding in the ether before the internet?
   The medium is the message…

6. I just want to be clear, I’m a racist and damn proud of it. I’ll not deny it and will never apologize for it. I have a “right” to believe what I will and no one can take that from me. I’ll happily rot in a jail cell if that’s what it comes too. BTW, I’m black too.

   1. If we don’t have freedom of conscience and of speech, that’s 1984 made real. So good for you, even if it’s my guts you hate. That is your RIGHT. And people who don’t get that need to be ground under, because they are the enemy of humanity.

7. The Internet is for doing stupid things (see the article above).

   George Floyd was a pathetic drug-user who tried to murder a pregnant woman.

   People who feel a need to officially stress their identity need to stop. It’s as awful and cringeworthy as saying “y’all” or pluralising things with an apostrophe and an S.

   That leads me to this to the poor grammar used in Miss Isak’s relentless and pointless campaign (done primarily to make her sad, trite existence worthwhile – no dice). If one must mount a crusade against people one has never met, at least pretend to be educated. It goes a long way.

   For companies and agencies that fire people as the political wind blows, who will you hire when desperate? Someone who has a real problem or some minor offense dug up by the permanent fixtures on Twitter?

   The judge’s ruling is an ineffective piece of law. The family is already destroyed and Miss Isak cannot be held financially accountable which would really and should hurt her. This is why people should teach children to think before speaking or acting and why these sorts of witch hunts should be met with slaps upside the heads of people like Miss Isak.

8. The sisters should get off because they’re Eskimos and the other one should get off because she’s black and some white person who could afford to pay the $100K should have been charged. These miscarriages of justice are all too common.

9. George Floyd was a career criminal who would not have been killed had he not been stoned out of his mind.

   1. He would not have been killed if he had not been murdered by the po-po.

      1. His autopsy report says he died from arteriosclerosis, hypertensive heart disease, sickle cell anemia and the drugs he ate when the police arrived: Fentanyl, Norfentanyl, & methamphetamine. Oh yeah, and it also says he died from Covid. It doesn’t mention the po-po.

         1. Facts are racist, Louis. You’ll little Un-brain’s feeeeelings. You meany.

10. So why weren’t the CBSA and Boston Pizza named as co-defendants? When does THEIR court case happen?

    1. Good question.

11. “I believe that everyone should understand that ‘the context’ in which one’s activities will be viewed is greater than one’s own isolated personal worldview,” Nahum said in an email, stressing that he was speaking only for himself and not his client.
    In the context of litigation, his client owes $100k plus his fee as a result of her crack jive matter.

12. Why do people insist on broadcasting details about their private lives?

13. That this story exists is proof that our culture is totally deranged. That lawyers will prosper from the stupidity of these events is the first evil. That someone’s race is somehow more significant than the merits of the story is the second evil. That people can lose their jobs from hype derived from an unrelated narcissistic exposition on social media no mater what the justification (even if they were mocking the Floyd death, poor taste has SFA to do with their employment) is the third evil. That the media canonized a (black) loser who died while being held by a thuggish (white) cop and all are expected to follow suit in accepting that this event is proof that all whites are racist is the fourth evil. I’m likely missing more evil but these stand out.

    1. Must disagree, John. People are obviously going to lose jobs for this kind of thing. Because employers need people who don’t bring fire on themselves by posting stuff online. At some point I expect employers will begin rejecting all candidates who even have a social media presence. It’s common sense.

       Which is why I post as The Phantom instead of as Real Me. Over the years a lot of people have criticized me for “cowardice”, for not having the guts to own what I say. Funny, I haven’t been hearing that particular criticism much lately.

14. Bugger George Floyd’s corpse with a hammer handle. Seriously.
