I've never been a big fan of Ezra - don't really like him all that much but, his performance with that pompous ass, Rosenthal has "won my heart". How can we get Ezra nominated for an Order of Canada?

How can we get Ezra nominated for an Order of Canada?

Maybe we could start by sending the chickenhawk to Afstan.

Not to worry Cjunk. It's just the facist NDP trying to outdo the facist Liebs. Nothing good comes out of Manitoba anyways. Hell. Their socialist record is worse the Saskabush's!!
Besides,I blame it all on AGW/BushMchimpyHitler.

Apropos of nothing in particular:

Ezra is absolutely brilliant, but he should have seized on one slip that Rosenthol made: 'It should be illegal for a child to wear a symbol of hatred'.
That's not the most important slip of logic that he admitted, but still pretty significant.

The 'pompous Toronto lawyer who is a liberal' prosecutes something that 'should be illegal'. I must say: how typical!

Hilarious! Worth the time watch it.

I remember the time when kids that drew (hindu symbols) or whatever, or wore clothing that had slogans not appropriate for a learning environment were sent home with a nastygram for the parents. Now the nanny state jumps in without any (official) investigation? Pretty sad state of affairs.

I truly did love the "pompous arrogant toronto lawyer" smackdown though. Ezera is nothing but consistent on his freedom of speech, even if it supports a disgusting but lawful view.

btw, rosenthaul has defended more than his fair share of shadey types. No troubles taking their money.

Coming after an election near you!

Ahh, manny. Glad you're back. Your strawmen arguments and pointless posts were missed. Now I remember why we constantly laughed at you.

Anyways, Ezra -- excellent arguments, terrible, terrible shirt.

I have some beautiful old editions of Rudyard Kipling works on my shelves, and the swastikas on them are not "universal symbols of hatred."

Why do we have to let rotten people hijack harmless or even good things to their purpose? So many things are coming not to mean what they once did. One of the worst areas for this is in the area of rights, where the very term "right" has come to mean an entitlement.

The state is going to remediate the "emotional well being" of children by taking them away from their parents? Taking them AWAY from their PARENTS!? Government employees are going to determine the emotional well being of children?

The school, which in my view has every right to set dress and appearance codes, should simply tell the parents their kid won't be permitted to return to the classroom until it's removed or covered. As a hard core libertarian I have no problem with this, just as I have no issue with prohibiting young pre-pubescent girls from wearing whore costumes in the classroom or boys exhibiting butt-cracks.

I too have mixed feeling about Ezra. The text at the end of the clip is a hit hyprocitical in light of his personal attack on the lawyer which is quite a bit stronger than the lawyer's standard liberal-paternalistic advice about getting counselling.

When you're fighting the zeitgeist you gotta be a bit more even-tempered if you want to win people over. I fear Ezra re-wins over the already won over.

January 1, 2015: Inspite of a cross country uproar, Canada's latest federal law passed by the Liberals last fall, kicks in today, requiring all couples to undergo a 'parental suitability evaluation'. Supporters say the law is the only way to stomp out hatred. Those opposed denounce the law because of what they say amounts to delving into the political beliefs of the parents and that it is completely ineffective and unfair due to the fact that foreign born couples classed as minorities are exempt from the law so as not to impede immigration. The Prime Minister defended the law today citing the opponents are mainly from 'out of mainstream opinion'. He went on to state how important this law is for Canada and that it is a model for the world. UN Secretary General Mohammad Mohammad praised Canada in a speech today, saying "Canada is a world leader in wiping out hatred. We urge all western nations to follow suit". The Secretary General is on his way today to mediate a cease fire between Hezbollah, Hamas, Fatah and Israel after the devastating attack last week that destroyed one small Israeli city.

Liberalism must always end up at the barrel of a gun. How else could the government make individuals or society act against their own individual or even collective self-interests?

That Jonathon Rosenthal is a pretty scary dude.

Did you know that there is a town called Swastika in Northern Ontario. Perhaps we should remove all the children from the town("not")!

While I do not advoacate its modern symbology a swastika used to indicate good luck.

Sounder: I almost embarrassed myself by commenting before becoming aware of the date on a second read. On second thought, however, it sounded perfectly in line with where we're going -- not at all futurisitc really. You won't get your sci-fi novel published with mild stuff like this. :)

quote from no libs comments ...

After watching that clip, I think this growing ideological culture war is going to come to a lot of shooting at some point. You know, a good old fashioned civil war.

I has happened many times before and it can happen again.

These are not issues that can be debated to a logical conclusion because there is little logic coming from the fascist kid Nappers who are running the horrid nanny sate that used to be Canada.

I have noted in my long life that kids rarely take on their parents values anyway. They like to do the opposite. That's how we got hippies isn't it?

And look what the hippies have given us ... political correctness, multiculturalism, nanny-statism, Big time welfare, a drug culture, the CHRC and pretty much everything that is wrong with our society today.

To quote Kate M. "Someday all the hippies will be dead". Lets hope they don't succeed in taking our society with them.

Keep going Ezra. You appear to be our last best hope to stop these f*ckers.

Loved this little slip by Mr. Rosenthal at about 6:22.

"What about the child in need of protection? What happens if that child is beaten by people who dont like that Nazi uniform...."

I wonder who he might be refering to. Mr. Rosenthal sure seems angry.

I think Ezra is my favorite superhero after he makes that guy look like a complete clown!!!! Awesome spectacle to behold!!!!

it ALL keeps coming back to Osgoode Hall doesn't it ?....it must be blindingly apparent to others than myself that Osgoode Hall is the red star of a pernicious progressive LLLiberal chancre that is attempting to infect the body politic through whatever orifice it finds susceptible...i don't think there's a big enough dose of permanganate to eradicate the spirochete.

not to say we're doomed of course...

Has anybody raised the obvious point that some are extremely offended by a peace symbol for a variety of reasons and would find a child adorned with one equally "offensive?"

How about one of those disgusting Che Guevara t-shirts? But this isn't just about the sacred right not to be offended, is it?

It must have felt like a sucker punch to listen to that drivel about "I hope your wife's watching and gets you counselling."

Good for Levant. He did better than he thinks he did.

Ezra Levant has just made the same point I did just above about children adorned with "leftist" symbols, right down to the Che shirt. Brilliant fellow!

In the Occupation following WWII did we remove Germany's children from their Nazi parents, hell no, because as repugnaant as their parents political views were making children of ideologically incorrect parents wards of the state was more repugnant. We aren't fascists. Fascists do that.

Eradicating bad ideas in a free society is easy, shame, reason and an open debate are great cures to stupid ideas, but, that's if a society has the confidence and freedom to apply those measures. We don't need no stinking tribunals or lefty thought police to arbitrate which kids become wards of the the state's correct thinking list.

The state of Texas social worker zealots were slapped down by the courts after they decided to remove all of a religious cult's kids recently as they should have been. In that and this scenerio the dumb social workers, and it's now a de facto dumb degree, a product of the lefty dumbing down of higher education, acted as agents of the state. Like the Nanny State cops in Britain, the left are masters of finding the stupid to carry out their agends.

Rosenthal is a fascist weasel. And, typical, you can bet he nor the lefty Nanny State minions would ever move to strip non-whites of their blatant anti-white hate symbols.

for some CRAZY reason i'm wondering where Superduper K-man was when this swastika imbroglio started....and why doesn't the K-man have a foto of the swastika....and blogwise he seems oddly quiet about the whole fracas...almost as though he's hiding something......so like how far away is manitoba from toronto ...anyone know ?

john begley, K-man is busy reveling over the death of US Republican Senator Jesse Helms. You know, hatred for a conservative trumps all. What a hypocrite.

I think that huffing, effeminate Tranna flimp should take a trip to the day spa or put on a mud mask and settle down.

I am looking at fellas like Warren Kinsella, David Miller and now this urban cliff dweller and I wonder if there are any men left in Ontario?

Ouch! To suggest that Ezra's wife get him counselling!

The lawyer deserved a smackdown for that alone.

The largest impact for the young children, who are very young, will come from that removal from their own home.

And there was not one sense of that coming from this Rosenthal.

On the shirt....I think Ezra was into Calgary Stampede events at the time of the interview.

Don't let Rosenthal anywhere near that entertainment venue.

Heck, would any farm kid be safe from a Rosenthal removal plan, with all that happens with the operation of a farm or rodeo?

Sort of helps to see how residential schools got started, believing most parents did not know how to raise and love their children best.

Ezra has been under fire for a long while now.

There is no surprise that he is less than tender with the 'other side'.

Mr. Rosenthal looks a little excitable there, eh? I don't believe I'd trust that guy with live ammo at the range. Nuh uh. Too twitchy.

Ezra's right of course. Of course its bullsh1t for the little kid to show up at school with a swastika,of course its bullsh1t to be a white supremest in the first place. But it isn't -illegal-, and it isn't -dangerous-. Distasteful, distressing, possibly an outrage, but not physically dangerous. The child seems to be in no physical danger, nor do the child's classmates.

A state institution trying to take somebody's kid away because they have objectionable beliefs? That's frickin' terrifying. Taking your kids? People are willing to die over stuff like that. That's civil war material.

It takes a lot to get me to feel anything more than contempt for the White Power crowd, but this is doing it. You can't take a guy's kid away because he's a jerk and believes stupid things.

I wonder if Mr. Rosenthal has the guts to be number one man through the door when the CPS goes to snatch this kid? Let me be the first to say, I strongly doubt it. He's a pencil neck.

So, gay pride gets a parade, black history gets a month, but you are a dick if you are proud of your white heritage? Look at it objectively, the white man has brought a lot of good to the table. Seems that there is a lot of intolerance towards the white race....... I see a CHRC complaint in the future......

So, Mr. Rosenthal, I suppose you'd have NO problem with residential schools, after all, using the wisdom of government in that era, Indian children had to be removed from the influence of their "savage/heathen parents to be forcibly civilized.

I think the hijab is a symbol of hatred against women. Therefore all hijab-wearing mothers must have their children seized.

Now to alert the authorities. We could be just a writ of mandamus away from returning Canada to the list of free nations.

"Sort of helps to see how residential schools got started, believing most parents did not know how to raise and love their children best."
Best comment of the day BB!
God save me from people with "good intentions".

hang on a second... we don't even take kids away from
junkies... and we know what's gonna happen there.

amazing.

While it is clearly questionable to have an a$$hole parent to tattoo anything on their little ones (which should be prohibited in the first place), the lawyer from Toronto is of course out of line, to have a say what parents should talk with children about.
Sheer force of common decency and general disapproval should be enough to calm the idiots on both sides.
There are plenty of examples, of children having different opinion from the parents. This is actually almost a law of nature. Talking here, from own experience.
Due to influence of schools and other assorted institutions of diktat, there is no chance that a kid today would come out as anything as a socialist, though come to think of it, there is not much of a distance to the ‘national’ added to it.

The 10 scariest words in the English language:

"I'm from the government, and I'm here to help you."

Rosenthal's attack was simply a gratuitous debating ploy to put Ezra on the defensive — particularly the part about Ezra's wife somehow being the moral barometer for Ezra.  When I went to law school, I knew too many "Rosenthals" in the making.

Keep Rosenthal back in T.O.  Central Canada deserves more like him.

Garth

Faisal Joseph, Jonathan Rosenthal ... man there are some crap lawyers out there!

"Communism killed 100 million and all I got was this crappy Che Guevara t-shirt."

'out as anything as a socialist',should read as 'anything other than a socialist'

From Mr. Rosenthal:

"They allowed their child to go out with an emblem on her which ... represented a group which ... murdered twelve million people. If that's not a kid in need of protection, I don't know what is."

That's funny, I know what a kid in need of protection is. A child whose parents have been physically abusing him is in need of protection. A child whose parents don't provide minimum standards of sanitation in the home is in need of protection. A child whose parents don't feed him is in need of protection. I could go on. The fact that a child's parents hold values that, in my opinion, are evil is not a child in need of protection. Law should be directed to behavior, not thoughts.

Childred are used for political purposes all the time. Every political advertisement by a political party that uses children would have to be suspect.

When has an eco-creep outfit not put children out front in one of its propaganda pieces? Sending your child to school wearing a World Wackjob Fund tee-shirt could get them beaten up, should Child and Family Services step in for that?

On another but similar note, you don't have to preach any political philosphy to children. Children pick up on your actions, thoughts and deeds quite well on their own.

No matter how hard you may try to hide it from them, your child will be your carbon copy even when you think they became your exact opposite.

T.Paine at 9:19,You must be spinning in your grave.....In Canada we have freedom of religion,freedom of choice,freedom of speech,as defined by trudeau,and re-inforced by his courts.We are all equal,except for those who are offended easily and perpetually,they need more protection from those who believe in fredom.

A 7 year old kid draws a swastika on herself goes to school ,gets her arm washed,goes home hours later still upset with no explanation,Mom pacifies her kid by redrawing the swastika,next day Mom gives the kid a sweater to cover up the swastika because they're having trouble getting it off,kid forgets the sweater ,Mom picks up the kid at school and is met by the police who take both her kids away.
Did Mom know what was going on?Was she so pissed that she redrew the swastika out of spite?Was Mom wrong? Of course.

However,where exactly in the teachers union handbook does it state that they are allowed to physically contact 7 year olds if they are sporting something that teachers disagree with?
By washing the kid's arm without contacting the parents and trying to find a amicable solution the teacher became a self annointed judge ,jury and executioneer.
By calling the police the following day when teach saw that the decision that was meted out the previous day had been challenged is indicative of someone who has zero common sense and not a shred of empathy for students in their care.It was more important for the teacher not have her moral indignation and authority challenged than to deal with a problem in an adult way.
The teacher should have been charged with abuse.

Remember, amongst many Progressives there is no difference between a white supremacist and a homophobe. In the UK, traditional Christians who teach that homosexuality is a sin are not allowed to foster children. In Germany, you can not home school your children and must therefore submit them to pro-gay propaganda.

Make no mistake, if white supremicists have their children taken, in Canada it is in the realm of possibility that traditional Christians will one day have their children taken. If Progressives can not distinguish between the two beliefs and they gain sufficient power, they start taking children. They will do it because in their view any child could be a potential gay person who needs to be liberated from abusive Christian parents who will not welcome the child's sexuality.

Regardless of this mothers politics, she must be defended or things could get really ugly in Canada in a decade or two. I am a Catholic and the first time in my life I've seriously contemplated that Roman Catholics may need to flee Christian persecution in Canada. We are only a year or two away from priests who rightly teach that homosexuality is a sin are thrown in jail.

One day a kid will go to school with an anti-gay t-shirt and the government will try to take him away from his parents.

A 7 year old kid draws a swastika on herself goes to school ,gets her arm washed,goes home hours later still upset with no explanation,Mom pacifies her kid by redrawing the swastika,next day Mom gives the kid a sweater to cover up the swastika because they're having trouble getting it off,kid forgets the sweater ,Mom picks up the kid at school and is met by the police who take both her kids away.

I believe that the teacher should have been charged with abuse as soon as she laid a finger on that 7 year old.

posted at Ezra's

Ezra,

You missed a huge opportunity with the Rosenthal interview. What would he think of a young Jewish boy wearing the Star of David around his neck? For many "progressives" that's a symbol of the terrible Israeli's wreaking terror on the hapless Palestinians.

Does a seven year old boy inherently know Judeaism, or is he taught by his parents? Should he be pulled out of his family the next time someone complains about the Israeli genocide of the Palestinian people?

I would have loved to have seen Rosenthal's reaction to that one...

wow.
what a can of worms Manitoba is opening.

I'm gobsmacked.

Children need to wear simple or uniform
no jewlery no symbol of religion or not symbol of polticial party liberal conservative

as simple dres as possilbe they can

school is not place adult use their children for made direction

if the children used so much f** word nasty thing
scholl can send at firest by 2 warning letter as notice to children and responsible parents the third letter can be suspenstion for 3 days your child stay home with return of more homework not stay doing nothing

sometimes children wear some wrong sign again this punishment should go like said above two warning letter and third letter 3 days stay hom with homework done for come back
we can not always think parenst dress child may children getis from some where orcousin or film or any freind family member

if continue then scholl can send the letter to go to court and find solution may pschologinal help first or some counsling to parents

I am not agree to as soon as some mistake come treat parenst to courts some social worker in scholl may get advanatage of it or some jewish anti Muslim teacher may revenge his or her idea to children of middle east to bother their parenta we also should prepare if teacher doing fault parnest has right to send two letter warning to teacher and scholl and bring teacher before board of educaiton board to see why teacher botehr intentiaonly with racist idea the children of ethinic back ground you can not always think problme may is fa\ult of kids or parnent may be principal or teacher or some peopel work in shcool bother children parents and kids has right to put compalin to board of eduction for investigation

at the end of day we must make sure school under stand dicipline not let use anyhate and rude lanuganage to train kid grow up not today chilrend agae 12 start using all F wording you may think this boy has too many sex while they only mirror image of their parents

parnest with viloance may affect children anger or some kid may be so quiet and look abuse by parents or may be teacher

how children grow with slef confidnece and protect them from hate will prevnet so many crime late when they become young offender

cartoon they are watching need to have certain cansor such as waltdisney or some carton maydraw with gay and lisbian or this cartoon shold be out of teach children how to become jeiwsh or chirsitna while cartoon is not some group teach politicla or religion while they can say you can be good not support anyreligion in favor of others

except privae school nobody from relgion or political should come to school to force their idea to children notready to undersand politic

it is too early to judge parent wihtout proper warning to seperate children from parents
again hate crime must stop influcne children so young age

in invite children birthday party parenst should not botehr chirldne from differnet race orrelgion background orany safty must control by school children
Ezra think it is funny put prophet mohamad picture with bomb to the head means I love killing Muslim head is hate crime against Muslim too this picute must ban you can say save Jwish from Nazi and let them teach them go put symbol of prophet mohamd to kill Muslim both are wrong infulince in innocent children
children need to grow by love support caring and hope for better future in Canada and united and safty of them not as tools some parents use childrne make money and pass politcal hate message while they shouldnot do that this can be stop in proper way not to abusive way

this may sansor some cartoon while this is protection of children place safty to able to resolve issue and be freind with no different ideas of thier parents and even teacher's ideas

Rosenthal was brought in a ringer to take on Ezra, IMO, and he was carried out of the proverbial ring feet first. It appeared that from the outset he didn't believe he couldn't win the argument so he chose to unleash a startling, specious ad hominem argument couched in a display of moral outrage. The gambit directly backfired because it showed the Ezra's assessment of the characteristics of that tribe who would rule everyone else, by dint of their own perceived holier-than-thou-ness has been spot on.

They assert the superiority of their personal politics over another, and they wish to transfer this as force into the corporeal realm of others. Ezra called him on that, in effect. It's stark, but there it is.

I just want to say, I know that not everyone likes Ezra, apparently, but I really hope that conservatives and libertarians and Christians and reasonable centrists appreciate his value. There are some truly important struggles going on at this point in our history that will not only have profound repercussion for a long time, but from which there may be no return. The proverbial fork in the road. Correct me if I'm wrong, someone, but I don't think we've seen his like before in such forums. In terms of calling BS, sticking up for liberty and freedom of speech in the face of political correctness, and and taking on Lib culture full-tilt, he's been an absolute boon.

You have to give CTV credit too for their willingness to allow the debates that have been going on in this country for a long time, and which are fundamental to us as Canadians to finally make it to air. CTV is in danger of wiping out default-setting anachronism CBC, by virtue of CTV being the more real and relevant and therefore more entertaining televised news media.

Is Jonathan's wife going to suggest that he go for counseling after she sees this clip, do you think?
That is one weird guy.

How many handles does this retarded individual (now posting as "new") have? Can't you block his e-mail address, regardless of the name he uses? If he wasn't pretending to be unfamiliar with the English language, his ramblings might be of some interest but, he's obviously faking it. Ban him, for heaven's sake.

I concur Zog... I wish "new" was gobsmacked too.

Zog- Haye, new, et al will eventually have to be blocked. I think this is the same crew that attacked other blogs. It might be the same ones who posted as ALI_ROGER.

Some refer to them as "trolls". I prefer the term "baiter". There are several "baiters" posting comments, looking for reactions. When the junior "baiters" fail to reach the desired response, it's sometimes necessary to bring in the "master baiter". This person has more experience in stimulating other posters into a frenzied response. It is not unusual for the "master baiter" to achieve a climax of responses that might actually make a huge mess of a particular site.

I suggest that all posters resist the urge to respond to the "master baiter", no matter how tempting it might be to unload on him.

come on you are not agree free speech you only to free to talk all s** and B** and F** teaching your kidd to transfer everywhere that is not like my idea because I can gurantee you are swre every sentene you are talking as i hear canadian in regular talk if not used that they are call them MAN or just for MAN words for canadian origin men her ask Man magazine they agree with you

you again I still thinking of when you go to school with your child how much you pay attention to your child or purhaps people standing near you and otehr nasty you think while you are standing in school my suggestion you never attend anyschool meeting becuse recenly social worker in school are getting smart and undersand quickly who is real jerks parnets are and may pick you soon if you lik to keep yoru child for ever

Canada need outside help not from inside

I think if social worker know who you are will ban you to come to any school in Canada any more

any name look muslim ot talk muslim to you bring up your red blood up to fight us back
such the animal thinker you are to me about how you see woman in general again shampoo just for men may your solution for you if you have any hair left your brain if you have brain left to think about you better stay away from school and children topic for some times

So if a kid's parents dress the boy up like a girl and send him to school that's OK with everyone? Just trying to figure out where the line is.

The Pompous Toronto Lawyer had the same glazed eye and weaseley look to him as the HRC Chairman that debated Steyn and Ezra at the Journalist Assn. debate.

Like all dangerous fanatics, they believe what they're doing is the right thing to do.

John V you might very well have a point.

Smackdown Brew

New...can you post in English...thanks

A_ziggen - here, here! LOL, I had to skip those posts; they weren't readable.

I think mothers that dress their little girls up like hookers for those kiddie beauty pageants are disgusting, but should that be considered abusive by the government - NO!

What about those Texas polygamists? The authorities had one complaint regarding the alleged abuse of one child, so they rounded up ALL the kids! That was incredible!

If the child's needs are being met - food, clothing, shelter AND there are no indications of physical abuse then the thought police should mind their own bloody business!

The swastika thing is digusting, but how is it any more offensive than what this father is doing to his daughter:
http://ezralevant.com/2008/07/more-thoughts-on-politicallysa.html

Yet, this moonbat father is not considered abusive!

The response to this whole situation should have been the school principal writing a letter to the parent indicating that such a symbol was unacceptable to the school and if the child showed up at school with it again, he/she would be sent home. However school principals don't want to take action on anything and like many people would prefer to shift the responsibility onto someone else (in this case social workers). Or if they wanted to be progressive this could have been a teaching moment (that's teacher talk) to review the history of the symbol and its most recent use (Nazi and WWII) - however that would mean that teachers would actually have to find out information that is probably not included in the curriculum (which is beyond the skills for most teachers).

Rosenthal: Commandant of Re-Education Boot Camp for Canadian Parents Who Don't Think Like He Does.

Rosenthal's stand is absolutely ludicrous which, unfortunately, in the dystopian Deranged Dominion of Canada, doesn't disqualify him from a pulpit in the MSM from which to spew his skewed screeds.

My father and grandfathers risked their lives in two world wars to defend the pseudo-rights of the state to interfere with families, according to left-wing, moonbat lawyers like Rosental?

God, keep our land glorious and free: 'Seems like it's going to take God Himself to turn this ship around.

One of my favourite movie lines of all time: "One night I'm going to come to where you're sleeping, and I'm going to cut your throat. Don't tell me how to raise my family"

If anyone ever took my kids, it isn't me they'd have to fear most. I guarantee at least one of them would hurt someone and escape back to me.

I agree with others that the school may take measures up to (including) expulsion for not following its dress code. The involvement of the police is clearly crossing a line.

.... and people still ask us why we home-school.

On the subject of utopian totalitarian mythology ...

Didn't you know the Mayflower came to America because people were seeking superior social programs?

Listening to haye/new moralize on behalf of Mohammad is like listening to Squeeky Fromme moralize on behalf of Charles Manson, or Goebbels moralize on behalf of Hitler.

Pathetic.

I'm just waiting for the whole HRC thing to focus entirely on the monster and child molester, Mohammad - his life, actions and sayings - and the hate literature, otherwise known as the Quran. Not to mention the commands to kill, rape and enslave non-muslims throughout the Islamic trilogy.

With mountains of evidence proving it throughout history to the present, it hardly needs, "likely to incite..."

Perhaps the HRC's need to be infiltrated and used to confront and abolish an ideology of real evil directed against all humanity.

i hate everybody and have not read a single post. it is my god given right to hate assholes.

If one might judge Rosenthal by his name, he's Jewish. So to be called out by another self-proclaimed Jew and lawyer and then dismissed as a "pompous Toronto lawyer" must have been wonderfully irritating. But the best part is that his moral authority, (I'm Jewish so therefore I can label Swastika as an emblem of hate [that can never be used again. No repurposing or reclaiming allowed.]), leaked out on the studio floor.

God bless Canada for the clarity of its political confrontations. Or Kate for her editing. Or both.

let me think

if the parents belong to prostitute you said in above they dress child half naked revealing cloth to know his or her mom is doing porn or etc

if the parent are white naxi racist they them nazi sign

if the parenst are jewish put mohamad with bomb to head of Muslim and all start laughing as Ezra did

if the parnest are terroirst can be Muslim irish iRA or mofia rusis or mafia Italins they can send them with hate words and b and f words and /or treat people

if parenst as I heard some gay are adopt the child they drss boy the gilr and girl the boy as show parnet are lesbian or gay

such the multicultureim
the problmes here we can made enviroment to trut the kids not thier children in Canada

and having said that if we say childrend are innocent

then if we can not trust polticial view of parents how we can stop political view of board of education and teacher out of mark children not with where their prent come from and so
on

then it ocme to my point saying when canada has
jerk symptums and hate ful sysptome this like cancer can spread and corrupted too many places and include scholol and teachers and
how can childrenc get safe as world war now
most victim are children are suffeirng of all
USA embargo to middle east not the adult

then how to start and who to put the point to

It is too early to put blam or arrest parnet or take childrne from parent unless we have law and educated law for few month then start give some nots then start made more seriously
you can made important issue to fun of media tonot rspect law or act so funny

the funny thing the ezra is jewish and lawyer in Toroto is jewish and who ever won still jewish are woining saying not bring antijewish out while they jewihs still doing so much hate spreading among Muslim

the most problmes herre we have need to system and correc system this from top to bottom and botoom to top to get fix now

or if we ignore it like parent ignore children we endager safty of children I really not like people some comment like lamb come and follow bad wording jsut because previosu post started
such as most patitic person as I said above noting was pathatic except Irwin daisy

who is jewish and still haed of jewish directore of Canadian congerss jewish communitey just become Muslim as we saw this news in Ezra still Irwin Daisy is igonore intentiaonly all the fact
as god cover their eyes and not see the truth if they see the truth they hide and deny it

god give so many way to open people eys and heart and brain cautght it from sending prophet from the holy books from sign and histroy we are seeing what happend in past but people still deny all facts intentionally this proces need to done step by step to not hurt children or parents feeling this method take trust people to govements rules

Britain is officially breaking new ground in loony tune land.

"Toddlers who say "yuck" when given flavorful foreign food may be exhibiting racist behavior, a British government-sponsored organization says."

I couldn't make this up, its on Breitbart.
www.breitbart.com/article.php?id=upiUPI-20080707-122008-1071&show_article=1

The London-based National Children's Bureau released a 366-page guide counseling adults on recognizing racist behavior in young children, The Telegraph reported Monday.

"The guide, titled Young Children and Racial Justice, warns adults that babies must also be included in the effort to eliminate racism because they have the ability to "recognize different people in their lives." The bureau says to be aware of children who "react negatively to a culinary tradition other than their own by saying 'yuck'." "Racist incidents among children in early years settings tend to be around name-calling, casual thoughtless comments and peer group relationships," the guide says. Staff members are advised not to ignore racist actions and to condemn them when they occur."

So you eeeeevile racist parents of picky eaters, beware! CPS may be kicking down your door because one of your toddlers said "yuck!" at a nice curry or lovely Sezchuan dish offered at school.

Anybody still in the dark about that whole gun control thing? Hmmmn?

I didn't want to take a chance on a late April Fools joke, so I looked it up. Here's the publication:

It would appear they are serious. Truly, it is not possible to apply satire to the Left. There is no outrage they will not embrace, given a little time.

Tax cut now please. Let the bastards spend their -own- money.

you scare me--but I realize that is your right to think the way you do--disturbing as it may be..There Will Be Blood--great book and movie but the "parent" in that, Daniel Plainview, was anything but a good parent

Ezra did well here again but he should have let Rosenthal speak--the more he talks, the scarier he gets.

That being said, lets face it-there are so many people out there that shouldn't be parents. Yes, they have the right to breed and reproduce but just because you can doesn't mean you should. I also will never understand the parents out there that are trying to be their kids best friends. I have seen 10 year old girls with t shirts that say "Juicy" or "Save a horse, ride a cowboy" Nice...did your mother get that for you?? How grand. Anyone can be a mother or a father, it is hard work to be a parent.

Keep in mind this lawyer is the pool the liberals draw from for candidates and may be making policy some day. A symbol is only a symbol and as correctly noted might represent different things to different groups of people.
A cross may hold a similar meaning to women persecuted as witches. A greedy, power hungry sociopath reeking mayhem would be the problem.
I give Ezra two thumbs up.

I think the "master baiter" has shown himself at last. It took a bit of coaxing, but I knew he'd have trouble faking bad grammar much longer.

Do a lot of people scare you, him? That's probably a good thing because you sound like a teacher to me.

It wasn't just children's aid at fault here. These teachers are getting way too pushy about how we raise our kids. They think the education system is all about them. Thank God my youngest graduated this year. The public school system is a disgusting mess. I found out recently that some provinces allow teachers to force kids onto Ritalin. That's just way too much power.

Well him, would your "people who shouldn't be parents" include the Leftist geniuses who produced the "Young Children and Racial Justice" guide? I'd ban people like that from coming within 100 yards of a child, myself. Even their own.

This is a free country, buddy. There is no "should" here. Some people -are- parents, that's how it is. It is up to -them- how they do it, nobody else. You don't approve? That would be your problem for you to wrestle with privately. And silently please, if you can.

Otherwise what we have here is a not-free country. There is no middle ground. Pick a side.

Why not leave the "master baiter" alone to pleasure himself.

Sheila, you're right. I shall.

[quote]What about those Texas polygamists? The authorities had one complaint regarding the alleged abuse of one child, so they rounded up ALL the kids! That was incredible!

If the child's needs are being met - food, clothing, shelter AND there are no indications of physical abuse then the thought police should mind their own bloody business![/quote]
SheilaT,
You have that right! Texas was right to contain a possible violent first encounter, but then violated the constitutional rights of every Women & Child by holding them like cattle. (The men stayed free)

We have yet to hear the last of that case... millions of taxpayers money in damages & the guilty will walk away. Bad PR for the Mormans & the a-holes practicing Law & "Rights" Experts

Bet Roe Vs Wade felt a sigh of relief when the appellate Court over ruled that moronic Judge that followed the MSM.. She may become a SC Justice.

Canada: Monkey see, Monkey do!

I have 4 kids and I will make sure that I keep them away from this rosenthal idiot.

Phantom

So true--we are blessed to live in a free country and are free to live how we please and yes, raise our children how we see fit.

We are also all entitled to express our opinion--so even though I disagree with you, I would not be so arrogant to ask you not to say what is on your mind.

and dp--I agree many teachers are abusing their "power" and let's not even get into the way they grade our children these days. However, too many working parents are buying their children toys,cellphones and other crap to make up for the time they should be spending with them. There are also too many parents who have no clue what their children are learning in school and what's even scarier, they don't care.

Yeeessss..Phantom...I disagree with that and yeesssss..I have a right to say it out loud.

So you may want to look the other way or hum quietly to yourself.

If they take the kids away from all the stupid people, where are they going to put them all? The Manitoba Gov't going to set up some residential schools?
