Perhaps just to add insult to injury, James Loney, possibly the world’s most carefully selectively-out-of-the-closet homosexual, has joined a protest march to bellyache about detained terror suspects being held as threats to national security. It’s enough to remind me of a scene from Quentin Tarantino’s “Natural Born Killers:”

WARREN RED CLOUD: Once upon a time, a woman was picking up firewood. She came upon a poisonous snake frozen in the snow. She took the snake home and nursed it back to health. One day the snake bit her on the cheek. As she lay dying, she asked the snake, “Why have you done this to me?” And the snake answered, “Look, bitch, you knew I was a snake.”

Pull your head out of your arse, Jimmy-boy, and make up your mind whose side you’re on: the country that protects you or the fanatics who will saw off your melon just because you’re gay?

That didn’t take long, did it? Just when the usual suspects were popping out of the woodwork to scold us for our paranoia, a deadly plot (involving three times the explosives used in the deadly Oklahoma City bombing) was uncovered in Toronto to target innocent Canadian citizens for nothing other than being who we are. CTV coverage (and plenty of it) can be found here. On the other hand, the Ministry of What You Should Think has chosen the typical, sheepish, goodthinker angle.

Following a massive raid, authorities have released the following names and addresses of the adult suspects in an al-Qaida-inspired domestic terror cell:

Five more suspects cannot be named because they are under 18 and therefore fall under the protection of the YCJA. Isn’t that nice? We have now shown every terrorist-minded bugger in the world exactly how to target his recruitment techniques in order to obtain a perfectly anonymous operative in Canada. These aren’t a few dumb kids that got caught joyriding or pinching a CD from the local music shop; these little bastards were planning to murder hundreds of people, if not more. We have every right to know exactly who they are, where they are, and what they’re up to every waking moment of their lives from now on.

“There’s been an explosion on the subway.”

It’s the kind of phone call that makes you sick to your stomach. Those words were shouted by a frantic contact who really thought this was it. A lot of people thought the same thing — the terrorists have finally got to us.

So begins the latest article by Toronto Sun columnist Joe “Scrawler” Warmington in today’s edition. It seems that even in the ever-so-tolerant Centre of the Universe, they are beginning to get it through their heads that the bad guys won’t leave us alone forever just because we’re Canadian. An earlier article along this line, also by Joe, can be found here.
