He's trying the three step drop, but he only got to to 0.5

The best part is his suit desperately running to help him as he craters to the earth.

I think when he lifted the football it was just way heavier than expected.

Until then i shake my head at how excited people are to believe the word of a crack dealer.
Yes there is no absolute proof, but no, people are not just believing a crack dealer either. Two reporters have been shown the video and are convinced it is clearly him. That's a little different.

You have to remember who Rob Ford is. Suggesting he smoked crack is not a stretch to anyone who's follwed him. He's been a clown show almost his entire Mayorship, and he's made denials on subjects (such as his DUI and being kicked out of a Leafs game for drunken belligerence) that later proved to be true when the evidence came out. Obviously we all want to see the tape, and I suspect in time we will. And then the fun really starts.

Maybe Stevie's chief of staff will just cut another cheque and grab the video before gawker can crowdsource 200k.

Apparently in the video aside from smoking crack he makes derogatory comments about his football team having too many minorities and he calls trudeau a fag.

Yes, there has been drama with the guy, but it is a huge leap to suggest that a guy with a DUI is also a crack head.

Both on the same level of idiocy if you ask me. Actually I may prefer him to be on crack....that way he only has potential to do harm to himself.

Not saying he is, or is not a crack head, but this isn't the first time his name has been brought up regarding hard drug use.

Quote:
Asked by the radio hosts Monday if she thought Ford was on cocaine, Thomson was blunt.

“I thought he was, yes, but I don’t know,” she said. “I went back and looked up, you know, what are the signs of cocaine use. I looked it up and you know sweaty, talking quickly, out of it, arrogant — all these things were on there.

“What I read on Google, I would think he’s either on that or some other substance … he was definitely out of it.”

Sarah Thomson isn't exactly a reliable witness of any kind when it comes to Rob Ford, she was the one that cried sexual assault and didn't want to go to the police.

She's as much of a wack job as Ford is.

Right because sexual assault has such a traditionally high rate of reporting. The issue isn't with not condemning Ford without a police report. The issue is with the sentiment that someone is a wack job for not reporting sexual assault, and it's a colossaly ignorant sentiment.

True - and it's usually keeping quiet, which is unfortunate .

It doesn't mean spamming social media with accusations - you can go the social media and the press but not the police? What she does goes against the grain which is why a lot of people have their doubts.

There was also eye witness reports suggestion it was staged.

Sexual assault is pretty serious stuff, but false accusations in the public forum is crap too.

innocent until proven guilty

Well, it's not the first time he's lied (or "forgotten") when asked directly about a crime/arrest:

http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toront...charge489.html

When the Sun first asked him about the incident, he denied ever being charged. But he later backtracked after being provided with Florida state records of his arrest, saying he "completely forgot" about the episode.

"When somebody discusses [the marijuana charge] with me, the first thing that pops into my head was failing to provide a breath sample," Ford said Thursday.

Not blaming the victim at all she's a waco, she accused him of groping her up in a public place and witnesses came forward to say it didn't happen.

She's considered to be just as insane as Ford and is willing to do anything to get an edge on a political rival.

By now I would hope that you would know that in terms of sexual assault that I have never ever blamed a victim on this board.

She's not a victim.

And by accusing someone of it, and then refusing to go to the police she's actually putting out the wrong message to actual victims out there.

Period
