Perhaps it is the videos of riots in Democrat-run cities attacking innocents or the seemingly endless violence in Democrat-run Chicago and New York City or relentless war on cops or a combination of all three and more, but the gun control push is not what it was, on that we can all agree.

Running on gun control did not bode well for the Democrat presidential ticket in 2016 and the new-found silence of Biden and Harris may indicate they know it is not a winning topic in 2020 either.

TORONTO - Shortly before 8 p.m., police said a man – unrelated to the rally – jumped on to a vehicle. A taser was reportedly used on the man. A second man also became involved in the scuffle and may have been tasered as well.

Police said an unspecified number of people in the crowd "became hostile and swarmed officers," requiring additional units to be called to the area to assist with controlling the crowd.

Several officers were injured with four needing to be treated in hospital.

The province’s police watchdog is investigating the arrests of two men during a rally in Toronto’s Little Jamaica neighbourhood on Saturday.

As with most cultural revolutions that wish to start things over at “year zero,” the violence is aimed at America’s past in order to change its present and future.

The targets are not just the old majority culture but also classical statues and buildings, hallowed institutions, religious icons, the renowned names of streets and plazas, and almost every representation of tradition and authority.

The ol' "sidestep defense"...
Regis Korchinski-Paquet fell to her death while trying to sidestep onto a neighbour’s balcony, said a report released Wednesday by Ontario’s police watchdog, which concludes there are no grounds to charge officers who were in her home at the time.

The lengthy report from the Special Investigations Unit notes that Korchinski-Paquet’s death sparked “important conversations” about the ways in which police interact with Black and Indigenous people, but says there was no evidence of police wrongdoing or “overt” racism in the incident itself.
That's not what the family said...
"The police can't arrest a female properly, they throw her off the building. A black female."

Because that's who he really is

When Prime Minister Justin Trudeau shut down the finance committee’s investigation into the WE Charity scandal, he stopped the release of some potentially embarrassing information — the paid speaking engagements of his family.

The committee had asked for the information to see if any other organizations were paying close to the average $17,000 in fees and expenses for each of Margaret Trudeau’s 28 WE appearances.

While Trudeau never charged WE to either speak or appear, he has charged plenty of other groups — charities much smaller than WE paid up big bucks.

NOBODY GETS OUT ALIVE

It's a sombre day here at the Halls. Today we're attending a hastily arranged get-together to say goodbye to a terminally-ill member of our family. We got the sad news some months back, and it seems, chemical & radiological intervention notwithstanding, Thanatos will not be denied.

The real tragedy here is the teenager left behind, who will almost certainly be less resilient than we adults in the face of this loss. I won't attempt to even imagine what this means for the lone child and spouse left behind.

There has been a changing of the guard of late, but this is the first of our generation to face that bullet... a person not yet a senior citizen. It seems cruel but, barring a miracle, there is no commutation on the horizon.

This is the first time we will all be together since the diagnosis [in fact, since Christmas dinner last] and gawds only know what can, or will be awkwardly said.

I am tempted to say there are no words, but at the same time, words are all we have. There will be tears and, I hope, some laughter.

Death is a part of life, but today I want to punch it right in the throat.

Later.
