... but some people are more equal than others, know what I mean?


Blogging Tory Joanne is mightily impressed with a National Post editorial emphasizing that there should be one law that applies to everyone because, as we all know, it's a fundamental underpinning of our society that all Canadians should be treated fairly and equally in every way, being given the freedom to live where they want, do what they want and marry who they want.

Well, OK, except for the faggots and that whole gay marriage thing. I'm pretty sure we need to draw that "one law for everyone" line somewhere, if you catch my drift.

And shooting someone with a high-powered rifle? Definitely frowned upon for everyone, unless the victim is an abortion provider. Apparently, that's still a grey area.

This is an odd fashion that the wingnuts have adopted in the last few years. All of a sudden, the first nations people, who they either hate or don't give two shits about, are suddenly *equal* and therefore should be given no special consideration. Same deal they pulled with the Status of Women cuts...women are simply declared *equal* and voilĂ ...no more need for women-focussed programme spending. What a lovely world they inhabit...declare the problem...solved, snap the purse shut and forget about it.

They truly are the stupidest fucking people on the face of the planet.
