S.P.P. Protest March Vancouver, Canada

Thanks Ryan.

Though the protest here did not match the ones in Montebello, the pictures are great by the way, it was incredibly well organized and focussed and drew a maximum of attention.

Thanks Kaitlin,

I was participating in the protest as well but kept my opinions out of the story.  It was most interesting feeling the seed of "the mob" within myself and observing the real commitment and growing anger of the participants. 

Thanks Kenada!

Winners? Yah in your empty inevitably destructive and superflous game of whoever has the most toys when they die wins.

People like you who sit at home and do nothing but bang on your computer anonymously 'cause you don't even have the guts to identify yourself are the losers.  

These people actually get up off their asses and do something to back up their commitments, and whether you disagree with their politics or not is irrelevant to anyone with a brain.

As to "misery for all" your little whelp of a country is the largest purveyor of misery on the planet, but don't worry, that dubious honour will come to a sceeching halt when the debts you owe to the Chinese and others come due.   

You're right I have no idea what you do for a living, just as you have no idea what those people do, but you come up with brilliant generalizations all the time about others, so why can't we about you?

So tell us what you do, what your credentials are for your malignant conversation about activists you don't agree with, post an honest picture and a bio of yourself if you've got the guts, which I doubt. 

As to the Chinese; anyone who thinks they know what the long term plans the Chinese are making is arrogant and stupid.

Finally, we don't need the USA at all, and the lions share of human beings on this planet are literally sick to death of your little tin-pot dictatorship.

The USA could've been the best of us but blew its opportunity and has created itself as a global pariah.

You didn't save the world from the nazis nor the Russians!  Read history for goodness sake, and not the revisionist pap fed to you by your "schools".  American politicians and businessmen were in bed with the nazis to their eyeballs which is why you entered the war so late.  The heavy lifting was done by everyone else and then your guys came in to pick up all the glory.  Whoopie!  The Berlin wall collapsed due to an unsustainable and moribund economy in the Soviet Union and the final blow was dealt by their interference in Afghanistan, something the bright boys in your Pentagon obviously missed!

You impugn most any other country you want, in fact your government simply kills anyone they want and your first comment here impugned people you have never met, in another country, and you wonder why no body likes you.

If you can't take the heat then don't even bother coming into the kitchen. 

P.S. Do learn to spell and write at some time in the future will you? 

Let me begin with a couple of apologies.  First to you for losing my temper and being drawn in by your personal demeaning of the protestors.  Two wrongs don't make a right!  You have your opinion of these people and I was engaged immediately as I know that they are not what you say they are.

Second my apologies to all the readers here and to the staff of Now Public.  As many of you know I am quick to anger but also quick to see the error of my ways and clean up my messes.

To clarify a few points.  I do not hate USA'ns.  I have many great friends from south of the border and interact constantly with individuals and groups in the USA who see the error in the ways of their country, are honest enough to admit it and are working for change.  Change will never occur using the worn out methods of confrontation.  Therein lay my error in these vitriolic posts. 

I do however hate the USA, what it stands for and how it behaves.  There is no other word for it but hate.  The hundreds of thousands of innocents that have died or been displaced or marginalized at the hands of your pseudo-Christian governments, military and corporations over the last century so that your population can so gluttonously consume most of the worlds resources cry out for justice.  If there is indeed a Christian God then his wrath  upon you will be brutal and all consuming when he comes to judge.  For most out here that would be viewed with relish. For me it just seems a pity.  I think the most gauling aspect is that a country with so much potential has squandered its global goodwill and the opportunity to lead in the creation of an equitable world for all; that your actions and inactions could catalize the final end of the biosphere and possibly the human species as we know it.

I will continue relentlessly to expose the USA for what it is and though I would never resort to violence unless my country or family were attacked I will use every peaceful tool available to resist and end the USA's global reign of terror.  It is my duty to my children and to the souls of all those who cannot speak out for themselves.

To correct a couple of your most prized beliefs.  The USA did not win the second world war.  The war was effectively won by the Russians. After decimating the German's on the steppes they took and held half of Berlin, dividing Germany, and were so strong that the allies, though unhappy with the situation, grumbled and left well enough alone.

The USA drew Japan into striking first and from the latest information it would appear your President was well aware the attack was about to take place.  The atom bombs did not win the war.  The Japanese were on their knees already and their defeat was imminent without the use of those horrible devices, but your President, at the behest of his backers in the M.I.C. went ahead anyway.  Reprehensible doesn't even begin to tell the tale.

History has always been written by the victor and thus yours was in the war with Japan. 

I am just as sorry for the loss of USA'n lives as I am for all the others and it is unfortunate your father has passed on.  Mine served as well and is also dead.  The deaths of your own in many of your wars speaks to your rapacious government and corporatocracy who would sacrifice your young men and women at the alter of Mammon and Empire based on a pack of lies. 

The internet and the ensuing availability of information not formulated to craft history in favour of the USA, has ripped the facile nationalistic veil from the formulaic holier-than-thou mythology your leaders generated for so long about your country.

The king truly has no clothes and the leering death grin of your president and all his ilk is exposed for what it really is.

Expect resistance. 

Thank you Victoria.
