I think Calgary is the only conservative city in Canada.

I think you're right. What is most interesting is that compared to the rest of southern Alberta, Calgary is a bastion of Marxism.

“I can understand why they want to protest, because they don’t want any harm to come to us. But a lot of them don’t understand,” Carr said.

No, I think Carr is the one that doesn't understand if he thinks they are protesting because they don't want to see someone in our milatary get hurt.

You're kidding me. Are you suggesting in any way, shape, or form that the south of Calgary is full of rednecks? LOL!!!

What is most scary about that picture is that the guy in it looks almost IDENTICAL to a friend of mine who worked with me in Calgary. He lived at the very southern end of Calgary, and he just moved to a small city called Lethbridge, which is about three hours -- you guessed it -- SOUTH of Calgary in the dry hills east of the Rocky Mountains. LOL!

However, the area around a small city called Red Deer (north of Calgary, about halfway between Calgary and Edmonton) has the reputation for being the most "redneck" area in all of Canada. Most of the ranchers who have publicly refused to abide by Canada's mandatory gun registration law are from that area.

Southern Alberta -- even the names of the towns sound really cool. Red Deer, Medicine Hat, Crowsnest Pass, Rocky Mountain House, Bragg Creek, Okotoks, Black Diamond, High River, etc.

Red Deer, Alberta -- Where the homes are mobile and the four cars on the front lawn are not. LOL.

The only people who do not support our efforts at survival as a nation are the self-marginalized ideologues.

forgive my grammar, I'm typing too fast.. I'm really upset..I had heard a report on the news a long time ago, that the smaller protests didn't bother the troops..but this is tearing me up knowing how they're reacting.

Don't worry, our troops are resiliant. Just get to the next protest AND MAKE A BIG SCENE !!

We're not going to change any minds or policy one way or the other, but if we are aggressive, we can motivate the troops so they can concentrate on killing rock chuckers !

The only good that can come from us freeping these scum is if the media notices us. Rebuke the scum at the maximum moral limit of speech and steal the spotlight !

Thought you would like to know that just now (Thursday) Foxnews did a segment with a WTC survivor - who is Muslim and whose son is a Marine in Kuwait - and during the whole interview they showed the memorable film footage of the horror of 9/11.

Maybe their producers read this thread a few days ago?!
