Its all over Twitter and Telegram. Riot Police and Swat teams have moved in. Fuel, food, supplies are being confiscated. Arrests are being made of the truckers in Ottawa.
Yeah...a man's got to know his limitations.
Tow operators are NOT responding to demands from politicians.
Canada. The new Soviet Union of Venezuela.
Coming to Amerika soon.
Yes, I agree.
Attributing the line would be useful.
A google search turned up a number of unattributed FR uses. Surprisingly, an unpaywalled NYT bookreview, had the quote attributed to Lee near the end of a very good book review from 1984.
Yes, the quote is Marse Robert speaking to his officers after surrendering the Army of Northern Virginia.
And let’s not forget, the farmers have reportedly joined the striking trucker’s, so even if Trudope has gub’ment trucks waiting in the sidelines, there may be nothing to deliver.
# Non-violent protest met with violent opposition.
It is all the government has. They have no other tools. Force is the first hammer reached for by government because they know that once the People understand that they can’t be ruled unless they passively comply with government edicts, that their reign of terror is over.
These people are lucky they are dealing with the Canadian government rather than the US government, because they’d likely already be massive amounts of their blood in the streets.
Or Dudley Do-Right?
That would be the BLM and aunt teefa model, and it has been rewarded in the past. I wonder how the cops know who they can enforce the laws against, and who to leave be?
Side note; The police are totally jerked off at being unable to do their jobs as needed and as trained to do when faced by n’words and the antif-ags. So they welcome the chance to get back to “it”, and they don’t bloody care who they do “it” to. “It” just feels good.JMO. That is scary, the thought that the Police are no longer thinking, but just being reactionary. The opposite of what “The Party” claims they want them to be like. These people running the above, are not stupid and have game planned things out nicely. Not perfectly, but good enough to beat the boob tube addicts.
Why are they idling their trucks?
They should be running diesel fueled heaters in their cabs. They could go for months if they did that.
# Anyone remember the Bonus Army?
Yes. Sometimes there are Unintended Consequences...
ANOTHER LIBERAL CROWDING FUNDING SOURCE TO AVOID...
Quebec City Freedom Convoy protest organizers’ fundraiser cancelled by crowdfunding platform
A fundraiser in Quebec City for a protest against COVID-19 mandates and restrictions was cancelled by crowdfunding platform Simplyk, which refused to accept payments to support the event.
The protest organizers hosted a four-day protest in Quebec City that ended on Sunday, coinciding with the Freedom Convoy’s ongoing protest in Ottawa.
According to CBC, Simplyk’s CEO François de Kerret claims the fundraiser was terminated because the campaign violated the conditions of the platform’s terms and services because it is not a non-profit organization.
CBC reports that the funds were previously being collected by Keven Bilodeau, one of the protest organizers.
Following the campaign’s termination, the page hosting the fundraiser was replaced with an error message.
Organizers of the event have repeatedly shared the link to the Simplyk fundraiser on social media websites, encouraging those opposed to COVID-19 restrictions to contribute to the fund, which was to be used to reimburse some of the expenses related to the four-day protest.
Much like GoFundMe, which refused to offer automated reimbursements after it cancelled the Freedom Convoy’s $10 million campaign, Simplyk said that those who donated to the fundraiser can apply to be reimbursed, the company said in a statement to Radio-Canada.
Public pressure forced GoFundMe to relent on its decision to disburse the money to a charity of the organizer’s choosing (and vetted by the platform) and instead provide fully automated reimbursements to everyone who donated to the fund whose money had not yet been given to the Freedom Convoy.
Correct, unfortunately.
They had to meet with the fibhrt for a quick how to kill them the same as they did to the Branch Davidians and tried to do to Randy Weaver and the surviving Weaver Family Members.
Why, yes, in a manner of speaking.
Rebuttal to your contentions, M. Noble

I was watching the live feed, y’know, LIVE Kinda sorta at the time you guys were talking all about the non-existent raid on the convoy.
They did steal food and fuel but that was in some sort of staging area away from the main protest site.
The live feed I was watching was obviously not the same one you watched.
