The wholly uninformed idiocy:
Following the story of the 7 year old snatched from her family home by child welfare operatives, because she showed up at school with a swastika on her arm, I notice that in amongst all the outrage, anger, brouhaha and general pissiness there is one perspective completely missing, and that is the perspective of the 7 year old. She drew the swastika in question herself - not one of her parents as some of the more hysterical commenters are wont to believe.
And then there's reality:
She said her daughter drew the swastika on her own arm after taking part in a "white pride" racist march in Calgary. When the girl's teacher washed the symbol off, the mother and daughter drew it on again with a marker.
This brief moment of journalistic accuracy has been brought to by someone who isn't a hopelessly ignorant Blogging Tory.

I do stand corrected. And now one of the corgis has thrown up on the kitchen floor, so I must go. I'm sure it's not a comment on this delightful, reasoned, moderate, insightful and friendly blog of yours.
Wag that finger WAG IT!
Shurely 'Wag that tail?'
