There's video of him in the basement of the HOC, bleeding proudly. <br /><br />Then the wound is gone when he leaves the HOC.<br /><br />Then its back when he's on CBC, and almost exactly the same as previous. <br /><br />I'm beginning to wonder about CBC on this. Was this guy sitting in their building bleeding...for how long? I've been on TV once or twice, and if I came to the place bleeding, you'd think they would ask me to take a few minutes in the Mens.<br /><br />http://bigcitylib.blogspot.com/2009/10/see-protester-bleed.htmlbigcitylibhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05081538803991095825noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23292180.post-46619642450890723272009-10-27T20:59:23.833-04:002009-10-27T20:59:23.833-04:00If it's right under his glasses, then it's...If it's right under his glasses, then it's possible the glasses could rub it and cause more bleeding.<br /><br />Apparently Solomon talked to him again tonight; haven't seen it though.Holly Stickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01137842937086115228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23292180.post-40628069544766761732009-10-27T19:11:39.432-04:002009-10-27T19:11:39.432-04:00the nose wound may be legit, but it was caused AFT...the nose wound may be legit, but it was caused AFTER he left Parliament, and BEFORE he went to CBC.

We live in a democracy - an imperfect democracy, but, well, there you have it.<br /><br />Which means that we won't get everything we want, even as strongly as we feel about it.<br /><br />Peaceable protest is fundamental as well to democracy. And that includes offensive protest - however, that is also subject to the right of the state to remove those who are disrupting the ordinary business of government or the normal use of public property.<br /><br />I mean.. in some respects its similar to the "tea party" types. It's fine to protest, but when you're only point is disruption, well, you're not contributing to the debate and really, your just discrediting your cause.Robert G.
