Do the folks blaring their horns and blocking traffic on 17th really think they are changing any opinions? Or are they just being ######s?

Memory doesn’t record our experiences like a video camera. It creates stories based on those experiences. The stories are sometimes uncannily accurate, sometimes completely fictional, and often a mixture of the two; and they can change to suit the situation. Eyewitness testimony is a potent form of evidence for convicting the accused, but it is subject to unconscious memory distortions and biases even among the most confident of witnesses. So memory can be remarkably accurate or remarkably inaccurate. Without objective evidence, the two are indistinguishable.
Retired RCMP sergeant Pitt-Payne is on CBC right now discussing children being taken to the front line. There are photos, videos of the same. Your view is wrong.

Check out how this entire family was just photoshopped into the protest. The media has no integrity at all.


Absolutely despicable parenting. F*** these arseholes for doing this to these poor kids, who have no idea what any of this means and probably think it's just been a fun 3-week long street party. I fear for these childrens' futures.

The kids were probably over this #### weeks ago.

“Daaaaaaaad, can we goooooooooo?”

“Not until Trudeau resigns, baby.”

“But I’m colllllllld. And hungryyyyyyyy. And borrrrrrrrrrred.”

“This is bigger than us. It’s about freedom.”

“Daaaaaaaad, can we gooooooooo?”

“NO! NO WE CAN’T ####ING GO! WE’RE STAYING HERE UNTIL WE BRING DOWN THE GODDAMN GOVERNMENT!!!”

“But I’m BORRRRRRRRRED!”

No wonder they needed to use the Emergencies Act.

A bunch of honking trucks just drove by my parents' place in Strathmore. So annoying.

Well, I guess I won't be flying the Canadian flag any time soon. Pretty sad how it's been completely sullied by these deplorable d**kheads.

Just a bunch of normal, everyday people who are tired of the divisive rhetoric. The government should really sit down and have a conversation with them; I'm sure it would be very productive.

If Facebook were real this is all exactly what it would look like.

Regulate. Social. Media. Now.

Well I saw a Ukrainian Flag in there so clearly this is the fault of the Ukrainians.

Let’s go back to rotary phones, daily newspapers and the 10:00 news. Destroy the rest. Maybe keep Calgarypuck somehow.

Why are so many wearing camo, and have the same beard/goatee? So much trash.

All they've proven to know how to do is be dissatisfied and push against things.

Comes with a lack of perspective and utter lack of gratitude for what they have just by residing in this country.

We have it good. We have it really, really good here in the grand scale of things. These people are dead set on ruining that over something that is already resolving itself as we speak.

Getting mad is easy. Being useful or constructive with said anger is something these people are proving to be incapable of doing.

How is being disruptive and calling police (who've served them in their times of need at one point or another) terrible human beings going resolve anything? It's just senseless, childish reactions from grown adults that should know better by now.

They were warned well ahead to clear out and those people chose to ignore it.

Christ, this was very difficult to watch. I didn't look at the rabid pack of monkeys flinging their poo behind him, but watched his face. I think they're (the reporters, like Glen) all going to need some kind of counseling/debriefing of some kind.
