  2. One of the comments at the NDP Boogeyman blog suggests that believing the idea that adults organizing teenagers to destroy signs is “tinfoil” and smacks of conspiracy. But I’m sure he believes George Bush is such a diabolical dumb and evil chimp and orchestrated 9/11.

  3. Could you point out exactly in my blog where I state “adults are organizing teenagers to destroy signs”?
    I’m sorry, I can’t find it anywhere…

  9. Morons at best! When you drive by the zoo, do you contemplate on the reasons as to why the Chimp plays with himself in public? The answer is simple. ‘Cause he’s a chimp!

  10. I thought I was pretty smart as a younger person, but it took at least a decade of real life before I had a clue about how things work. The brain dead socialist idealism of junior high school teachers I learned under took a long time to wear off. I was actually told by more than one of those teachers (whom I liked & respected), that communism/and/or socialism were the perfect systems, but the Soviet Union had just not gotten it right.
    A few years paying my own way and watching the events of the world unfold slowly opened my eyes to how things really work and don’t work…and in my case, I shouldn’t have been allowed to vote until I was at least 28. I think in these kid’s cases, they shouldn’t have a vote until they reach the age of 38, at minimum.

  11. Regarding the Facebook idiots shot at Gormley. The John Gormley they pictured is none other than John Gormley – Green Party Leader in Ireland.

  12. Seems there’s a bad case of virulent inability to read and comprehend going around…
    Aside from that did anyone in Saskatchewan hear if there are charges being laid on the miscreants?

  13. What’s this I hear that the young perps are issuing an apology to the candidate whose signs have been the target of their fun? The heat must be getting to them. Maybe the HEAT (police) should be getting to them too.

  14. Aside from that did anyone in Saskatchewan hear if there are charges being laid on the miscreants?
    A police spokesperson said that there wouldn’t be charges unless someone filed a complaint; and if that is the case it would just be a minor property damage charge.
    My impression of the comment is that nothing will be done, and the cops are not taking it seriously.
    This is why it was imperative that John .G. outted these commies, yesterdays show was the end of accountablity for these goons, considering that a few of these kids parents have been linked to NDP and CUPE. Most of these kids will get a pat on the back at dinner for a good job.
    I will take alot of pleasure in the disconfort the aforementioned people will be feeling on Thursday.

  15. I was a member of the original group on Facebook. I did not partake in the defacing of any political signs. I basically thought that it was a rather funny idea, and I chose to support some of my friends.
    This whole thing has been blown out of proportion. I am an honour roll student, not some idiot kid whose left wing parents are off smoking weed and turning a blind eye. In fact I’m in some deep shit over this with my parents at the moment; and frankly I deserve it.
    The whole idea that our parents orchastrated this whole thing is completely ludicris and unfounded. I think that each member of the group whose parents have found out about it are in the same situation and me, some more than others. I know the founder of the group and he is nothing but a good friend and a good person.

  16. This post and the ensuing comments have provided my laugh for the day.First the intellectually-challenged youth showing thier research skills by posting the wrong Gormley. They must have googled his name,found the pic,read that the guy was an Irish politician,then using primarily the left side of thier brain deduced that this Irish bloke gave up Ireland to pursue a career in Sask. radio. Sure,why not? On top of that the ndp boogeyman proves his reading comprehension skills are at the same level as the sign-kickers,but goes them one better by suggesting that Doug and Allen are the same person.A possible 11/6 conspiracy developing? I think eugenics may be needed in Saskatchewan soon.

  18. Yes,I have. Kudos to you for actually admitting earlier of the error at 11:31,after it was pointed out twice. Nonetheless,it did make me laugh and it does show a propensity for the left-leaners to react emotionally rather than using critical thought.

  19. Well Leland MacLachlan – you may be completely uninvolved in any other way than having your name on the group’s list …. if so good.
    Now pay attention in school and maybe do a little reading in other places besides facebook..
    “…. completely ludicris “… I think that was l-u-d-i-c-r-o-u-s unless you meant Ludacris !!
    I think that it has NOTHING whatsoever to do with a second rate rap performer.
    And by the way … NOBODY said anywhere that the parents organized this … or did anything other than perhaps tacitly approve .
    If your parents have enough sense to be angry over your judgment then count yourself fortunate.
    But nice try on the mea culpa ….. destruction of property is a crime …. if “Your Nice Guy Friend(s)” did it then maybe you need to do more than learn a bit of ENGLISH GRAMMER and SPELLING and think about new friends.
    The second appearance of the group with the Gormley attack just proves the point of every person who criticized the group.
    If you don’t want to get covered in stink …. stay away from skunks!

  20. I woke up at 6 am this morning. Being tuesday morning. I soon discovered my sask party lawn sign disappeared in the night. The ndp sign down the street was untouched. How shocking is that eh! Looks like their war on sask party signs is going to continue till the bitter end.

  21. Leland MacLachlan
    “orchastrated”
    You’re an honour student? Sure kid. Maybe stick to the smaller words.
    By the way, your apology or explanation, or whatever you want to call it, rings hollow. I don’t believe you.

  22. Yes, I must admit I spelt ludicrous wrong. I’m sorry. Since it seems you are the god of english grammer, I’m a little intimidated to point out your despicable use of of periods, commas(or lack there of), double exclamation marks, or the word “then”. I learned the difference between then and than in grade 9. What grade are you in? Oh, and I don’t think whatsoever is a word. I’ll stay away from the skunks but you better start practicing what you preach.
    Leland MacLachlan

  24. Leland: It is “grammar” not “grammer.” There is a word “whatsoever.” The definition of despicable is “so worthless or obnoxious as to rouse moral indignation.” Wow, the misuse of commas and exclamation marks rouse moral indignation in you? You need to get a life buddy.
    It is usual to put spaces at the end of sentences, and between the end of a word and a subsequent bracket. Here is a handy link for you: http://www.m-w.com.
    If you are an honour student, the rest of your classmates must have very very poor English skills. Although your parents may not smoke pot now, it is likely your mom smoked too much weed when she was pregnant with you.

  25. Well Leyland … full marks for feistiness!
    I don’t mind a bit if someone points out my mistakes … and I did misspell Grammar… mea culpa. This is how we learn.
    Oh yes! I take liberties with grammar and spelling all the time. The use of variant spellings or grammatical forms is perfectly acceptable outside of formal compositions. Or, even in certain circumstances within a formal composition. Look up Lewis Carroll and especially look into his less well known works.
    Hence the common use of abbreviations and free form characters for emphasis and illustration in blog postings, e-mails and other electronic media.
    Last time I checked my own moral compass I found that taking liberties with grammatical forms was somewhat less of a problem than simultaneously trying to defend a position through self justification ie; “I’m an honor student” then immediately failing to spell common words correctly.
    FWIW – I did give you some credit for addressing this forum in your own name … and I think you would have been better served by a simple whoops I made a ‘typo’ …. however your petulant display in response to criticism that was directed at the behaviour in question without addressing the POINTs made just shows your immaturity.
    I think you deserve some words of encouragement though!
    … Stick Around … come back often.
    There’s plenty to learn here at SDA and even if you don’t agree with or like what you read you have an opportunity to get beyond the narrow confines of your current circle.

  26. Immaturity? You’re all poking fun at a high schooler’s grammar… I was trying to address this sensibly, but I guess it’s not worth it. I don’t need any of you to believe what I say. Thank you to those who listened and thought about what I had to say, bye.

  27. hey everyone bashing leland
    how about this for a change…instead acting like the dumb fucks you are attacking a teenager how about doing something with your useless lives instead of picking grammar mistakes. at least he is politically active and is making a statement and will go somewhere in life, unlike you guys. The reason your picking on him isn’t because you have your own thought process but because you just can’t believe a teenager is smarter than you–no matter how small of a feat that is. Understand this—the sign kicking thing isn’t as big as a deal as you are making it. Its a group expressing their opinions about how much of a garbage job your generation is doing. you think posting signs is being “politically active?” lets look at some of the most influential people in history.
    1. Gandhi
    last time i checked, he did something about what he believed in and created change—he talked the talk and walked the walk
    2. Martin Luther King Jr.
    He did what he thought was right and made a huge statement to the world.
    thats the same thing that kids are doing except on a smaller scale. they are taking a stand on what they believe in which is that your generation is absolutely worthless and have not accomplished anything except to make our job in the future to clean up your mess. congratulations. you can try and mock a teenager, but you cannot do anything about what actually matters. (just for the sake of wanting to keep my iq points at a decent level i spell checked this to make sure you didn’t have anything stupid to say about it—also I am in high school to, so try and mock me. i dare you. just remember, i am not as nice as Leland. i will make you regret it)

  28. @raist: Comparing Leland’s antics with the actions of Ghandi deserve my mocking. So, game on small child. How is a priveliged white kid kicking down one party’s lawn signs and then posting the same on Facebook a political action against “my generation?” If that was truly the case would they not have kicked down all the signs?
    Their “stand on what they believe in” is exactly what? The destruction of political signs of one party tells me that they have been duped by their parents into believing the lies of the NDP. Politcal action my ass. As others have said, their mindset is very similar to the brown shirted youth who supported their Führer.
    Also Mr raist, it is usual for the word “I” to be capitalized. Just thought I should point that out as part of my mocking you. Please Mr. Twit, er I mean raist, go easy on this old codger – I don’t want to wilt in the face of your mocking.

    Mister MacLachlan, the act of destoying your parent’s politcal opponents’ signs is not sensible, nor is posting those actions on facebook sensible. Coming in to this forum to proclaim your apologies while justifying your actions by saying you are an honour student while at the same time mangling the English language is also not sensible. If your group’s action was truly against the entire politcal process why did you only pick the Sask. Party signs?
    I don’t believe you are sorry, and I don’t believe you have learned anything from your non-sensible actions. So, you got mocked. Awwww! Go back to mommy now and maybe she will wipe the tears from your eyes and reassure you that you are a good boy.

  31. hahahahahahah your a funny man grammar police. now lets look at FACTS for a change.
    so first off, with this notion that only Saskatchewan Party signs are being kicked. Now, lets understand that ALL signs are being kicked, but predominantly Sask. Party signs. Citing cbc.ca, the Saskatchewan Party is supposed to have 54.3% of the popular vote, which unless my math skills are incorrect, is a majority. Now if a majority is held by us, then therefore, there should be more signs. Also, that would mean, a significant number of our parents would also then support the Saskatchewan Party, not the NDP. So, therefore your assertion of our parents political views affecting the sign kicking is incorrect. Good use of logic Mr. Police! You astound me with your intellect!
    the next contention you made was about me comparing people making a stand to what Ghandi did. I find this ironic. Lets again look at facts. In Saskatchewan, the majority of people are above the age of 18. We are not. We have to listen to the rules you make be it fair or not. I would cite the new driving regulations for younger drivers for public protection. however, last time I checked I noticed that not every accident was caused by a teen, as well as the fact that older people (60+ for arguments sake) are a major danger. Also, you make us take a road test, to gage our abilities behind the wheel. If we pass we are a good driver, no extra need for precautions, they have already happened. The same applies with 19th and early 20th century India. They were specific legislations put in place to prevent and gauge actions by those in charge (the British Empire). The same applies with the example of Martin Luther King Jr. So as i proved, again your assertion is ridiculous. If you need specifics, I would recommend going back to school. People with your brilliance need to.
    Finally with the point of capitalization, I thought you be smart enough to figure out that this was the internet, and not a research paper for an English or history class…which by the looks of it you never took, and formal writing was a necessity. My mistake for thinking you were smart.

  32. Well I told myself that I wouuld stay away from this, but I’m having way too much fun. I just need to straighten some things out with Grammar Police.
    1. I misspelled grammar on purpose to mock OMMAG. He was trying to make fun of me by pointing out my grammar(grammer)mistakes. I found this hypocritical, that is why I used the word despicable.
    2. I did not kick down any signs. Infact, I was out of town all weekend. If you took the liberty to read my prior messages you would know this. I was simply a member of the group and John Gormley mentioned me on his morning show.
    3. I laughed my ass off when I saw the picture of the Irish Green Party leader on that facebook website. I was not a part of that.
    I was not apologizing for anything, I commited no crime. I was simply, hoping to spark some debate and it looks like I’ve succeeded.
    If I have any grammatical mistakes so be it.
    P.S. OMMAG, I read up on Lewis Caroll, interesting stuff, thanks.

  33. raist, you are an idiot. Your arguments are nonsense. “Now, lets understand that ALL signs are being kicked, but predominantly Sask. Party signs. Citing cbc.ca, the Saskatchewan Party is supposed to have 54.3% of the popular vote, which unless my math skills are incorrect, is a majority. Now if a majority is held by us, then therefore, there should be more signs. Also, that would mean, a significant number of our parents would also then support the Saskatchewan Party, not the NDP. ”
    What does the level of the popular vote have to do with your parents’ political affiliations? Your self-selected facebook group is not the general public, nor is it representative of the electorate. The group obviously has similar politcal views, or you wouldn’t be proclaiming yourselves a politcal action group.
    As has been shown here by others, some of the members of your group have relatives who are known to be NDP supporters. I suspect ALL of your parents are NDP supporters.
    You are also deluded equating Ghandi’s non-violent protests against British Rule with your violent vandalism of political signs. Ghandi actually represented a majority of the people in India – they were NOT a minority.
    Aww, so adults make rules and you have to obey them. Too bad Sunshine, that is the way our world operates. Youth do not make rules because they are (generally) impulsive, do not have wisdom that experience imparts and they often make bad choices. Jeez, that sounds very much like the behaviour of the members of the facebook group in question.
    Please explain to this dumb un-educated over 18 year old what you are on about here: “The same applies with 19th and early 20th century India. They were specific legislations put in place to prevent and gauge actions by those in charge (the British Empire).” Who is “they” and what specific legislations were put in place by whom?
    You need to stop huffing gasoline buddy.

  34. Leland said: “I was not apologizing for anything, I commited no crime. ”
    Your lack of insight into your behaviour is illuminating. You committed no crime but you encouraged others to commit the crimes you were too chicken to commit yourself. Have you ever heard of a guy named Colin Thatcher? You should read up on him, your arguments could have come from his mouth.
    It does not surprise me that you feel you have nothing to apologize for. I gather you won’t be helping your friends with Alm’s signs either. Way to accept responsibility. If you were my son, you would be apologizing in person and publicly to any of the candidates whose signs your group destroyed, and you would be forbidden from using the computer for the rest of the school term.
    Honour roll student indeed. Goes to show that good marks in school have little correlation to intelligent behaviour outside of school.
    Putz!

  35. Another thing raist – I don’t regret mocking you at all. In fact I have had a pleasant evening of it. Thanks for the material.

  36. What does the level of the popular vote have to do with your parents’ political affiliations?
    You Know, your absolutely right. Our parents kick down signs. i never kicked down a sign, nor was i part of the group. i just think that kids believing something, like that our political parties views isn’t something that will benefit us, or in general ebing politically active is a good thing. Because look at the fact: WE CAN’T VOTE. We don’t have a say for OUR future. BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY WHAT WE THINK DOESN’T MATTER!!!!
    My examples still stand. It was based on a value, but i guess you are too stupid to realize it
    also, I posted for 2 reasons
    1. To support Leland
    2. To Make more debate
    i accomplished both
    (i purposely made all of the grammar mistakes here….lets see if you can find them all!!!)

  37. Quoth the idiot-child:
    “You Know, your absolutely right. Our parents kick down signs.”
    Actually I did not assert that your parents kick down signs. You have been into your sister’s nail polish again.
    Twit continued: “i never kicked down a sign, nor was i part of the group.”
    You only support them in criminal acts of vandalism. Just because you don’t think it is criminal to destroy someone else’s property doesn’t make it so. Elections Act of 1996 I believe covers that.
    Maroon continues in his usual sloppy manner, “i just think that kids believing something, like that our political parties views isn’t something that will benefit us, or in general ebing politically active is a good thing.”
    Whaa? So, kids believing that your political parties’ views isn’t something that will benefit you is a good thing, so therefore ebing (sic) politically active is a good thing?
    I think your lousy grammar is biting you on the ass there as I don’t understand which thing is a good thing. Is it “being politically active” that is a “good thing?” Or is it “believing that your political parties’ (note the apostrophe) views not being something that will benefit you” a good thing? Or both??
    Brainiac gets heated and says: “Because look at the fact: WE CAN’T VOTE. We don’t have a say for OUR future. BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY WHAT WE THINK DOESN’T MATTER!!!!”
    Nope, you can’t vote. You (particularly you) aren’t smart enough to vote, nor mature enough to take a vote seriously.
    Poor little boy continues: “My examples still stand. It was based on a value, but i guess you are too stupid to realize it”
    What value is that? That destruction of people’s property is a valid way to make a political statement? And what exactly was the statement your friends were making? “We can’t vote so we will destroy!”
    It seems to me that the entire facebook episode is proof that your friends at least are too immature to be trusted with voting for our political leaders.
    Lame-boy boldly asserts: “also, I posted for 2 reasons
    1. To support Leland
    2. To Make more debate
    i accomplished both
    I will give you 1, but I don’t think you stirred much debate. More of a smackdown of a half-witted prepubescent boy-child who can’t even vote.
    And finally makes the hugely intelligent statement:
    “(i purposely made all of the grammar mistakes here….lets see if you can find them all!!!)”
    Not interested in proofing your troll-work thanks. but the smacking down of your idiocy and your idiotic friend was excellent. You will make a fine NDPer some day.

  38. Another thing raist, usually in a debate one person actually answers the other’s questions. Otherwise it isn’t really much of a debate.
    You didn’t answer this one from earlier: “Please explain to this dumb un-educated over 18 year old what you are on about here: “The same applies with 19th and early 20th century India. They were specific legislations put in place to prevent and gauge actions by those in charge (the British Empire).” Who is “they” and what specific legislations were put in place by whom?”
    In case you didn’t understand my question, I will try to clarify it for you. Were these specific legislations enacted to prevent and gauge actions *of* those in charge? Or did the British enact specific legislations to prevent and gauge actions of somebody else? Prevent what? “Gauge actions?” I really don’t understand what you are saying.
    Are you sure they actually teach English in high school? If they do, you need to pay better attention.
