Chris Reid, who became briefly famous during the last federal election when the CPoC forced him to step down as candidate for Toronto Center, and who made me briefly famous as well, is back and raising heck again.
Above is his profile picture on the CPoC Facebook site, and some people are not too happy with it. In fact, a party functionary has threatened to lower the boom on him:
ok chris i'm going to be as polite as possible but your profile picture has to go if you want to continue participating in the conservative facebook groups and think common sence (sic) should indicate my reasons . its simply not approiate (sic) and some users may find it threatening or offensive . i'm giving you 1 warning and 1 day to replace it with something else .

But Chris isn't backing down because, I suppose, that would be against Liberty or something. Instead he's organizing a counter-protest of sorts. According to Gary Nichols:
Looks like Chris has a few supporters too.
You know, suddenly I feel terribly unmanly argue about the details of the B.C. carbon tax, especially when Tory ranks are filled with hot chicks like this one.
But in any case, who will win this showdown between Party Central and the CPoC rebs? And will they be packing heat on Facebook?
"its simply not approiate (sic) and some users may find it threatening or offensive"
ReplyDeletePresumably gay-bashers and those who endorse gay-bashing.
Seeing as this is the Conservative Party it strikes me as equally likely that they're offended by the pro-gay sentiments than by the pro-gun ones.
Get a life, I'm a member, you never see gay bashing, but what you do see is contempt for
ReplyDeletelie-berals like iggo-waffle, and old Jack-Daniel, the VW driver
robins111, you guys have a stupid nick-name for everyone, don't you?
ReplyDeletebut what you do see is contempt for lie-berals like iggo-waffle, and old Jack-Daniel, the VW driver.
ReplyDeleteSuch seething anger. You can easily imagine it bursting out in the form of a full-throated queer-bashing rant.
These people don't fool me at all. They have to have to have some outlet to vent their bile and if isn't the gays right now, it's someone else...muslims, aboriginal people, "separatists" (codeword for francophone traitors), "socialists" (red-baiting), etc. etc. etc.
That's what ignorant people do. What other choice do they have?
Ah, yes even 8 year old kids can think up name calling names.
ReplyDeleteMust be proud of their advanced intellect eh?
Ah, yes even 8 year old kids can think up name calling names.I'm sure I came up with better nicknames than "Iggo-waffle," when I was eight years old.
ReplyDeleteThe train of thought that led to it is lunatic: "Iggy" leads to "Eggo" which leads to "Eggo Waffle" which leads to "Iggo Waffle."
Only psychotics indulge in free association like that.
Hi, NAMBLA-Richard Evans.
ReplyDeleteWhat can I say? I appreciate the classics. They never fail.
I love how righties copy and paste potty mouth all over the place. I think they touch themselves while they're doing that.
Is Un-tuy Nambla Dick? A man of many faces!
ReplyDeleteThe pseud sounds like one NAMBLA Richard Evans would select when he sock-puppets.
ReplyDeleteWho knows? I savaged so many anonymous cretins at Robert McLellan's blog over the years that it could any one of the hundreds of Blogging Tory commenters. I know NAMBLA Richard Evans was the first to copy and paste my vulgarity all over the place in an effort to shame me into silence.
It's not working, obviously, but we know what they say about the definition of insanity...
Your the poster boy of the insane Ti-Guy. Your mother must be so proud.
