The self-contradictions are very funny. If we go back in the time machine, Alan Rock stood up in the House of Commons and justified the gun registry by saying the costs do not matter because he would save at least one person. Of course, the usual suspects have rejected that logic repeatedly about the registry , and criticized using the Montreal shooting as a singular event to justify the increased expenditures.<br /><br />Today, the increased expenditures of the G-20 is needed even if it prevents an incident, and that lone firebombing in Ottawa surely demands the quadrupling of expenditures. History doesn't repeat itself, but it certainly rhymes. <br /><br />As for the equipment costs, other U.S. summits had the same devices and were able to keep costs well under 100 million, so that is not an adequate. Two things are happening: Either PSFs or PMCs are fleecing the Canadian government, or the security planning for this summit has been done by incompetent drunkards.jkghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11896248753234065744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23292180.post-60362860034414529612010-05-27T20:09:28.793-04:002010-05-27T20:09:28.793-04:00how do you think ridenrain pays for that much booz...how do you think ridenrain pays for that much booze?Gene Rayburnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12438068218145410142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23292180.post-11854466040759899402010-05-27T19:03:33.397-04:002010-05-27T19:03:33.397-04:00wilson & ridenrain...
