this is the most eye opening podcast I've listen to in a while. violence= more violence
oooof, "the history of industrial murder", dang that's great phrasing, gotta remember that one, really re-frames the situation properly
amazing show
Sure it's important to disclose bad behavior by police whenever and wherever it occurs, but I'm not so sure about promoting the side of a thief, gangster, bank robber and gun smuggler to make him into a victim.
Still waiting on that podcast about Niagara Falls....
sad? LOL no justice in this world, suicidal and still doesn't kill himself like the human garbage he is *sigh*
The Queen has power and dominion over all the commonwealth land and people. The government of Canada has special permission to excercise her powers within her mandate. The governor general is here not to ensure democracy is upheld but to ensure our laws don't infringe upon the Queens power and also as a reminder that we are her subjects and not free people. I think alot was assumed in this podcast and when incorrect things were suggested by the hosts the political expert they had just said nothing knowing damn well they were way off and pretty naïve in their assumptions.
What a fascinating and unnerving story!
J.J. McCullough sounds like an idiot. He is ABOOT. Not a good representative of real conservatives.
really enjoying this season, awesome job!
