Once again... the magical healing power...

...of "the people's" music...
-- "Slap a white boy, snuff your landlord, smash some windows, rob the corner store, bomb the precinct." --

The lyrics in the song Fuck the Law by Dead Prez pulsate as the soundtrack to a video posted on YouTube Thursday highlights some of Toronto’s most precious landmarks and treasures.

On www.clac2010.net, which is credited at the end of the video, you will find the Convergence Des Luttes Anticapitalistes site with the heading “ATTACK THE G20 — TORONTO, JUNE 25-26-27, 2010” and describing itself as “a new anti-capitalist alliance” calling “for mobilization against the Group of 20.”

Writing he did not make the video but simply posted it, anti-globalization activist Jaggi Singh tweeted “targeting the Hockey Hall of Fame? Montrealers want to visit the Hall to see all the Stanley Cups they’ve won.”
Suddenly, all that money spent on security starts to seem a little less frivolous.

"Interesting bit from Instapundit: there was no looting during or after the floods in Tennessee."
Just another one of life's little mysteries, huh?
