Look who is gracing the CBC web site this morning. Why it's those two creepy cops,
Harper's own Julian Fantino and Toronto Police stalwart,
James "Give'em the full clip" Forcillo.
Forcillo has been arrested for breaching his bail conditions.
Fantino is celebrated for cutting the ribbon on his new business - a marijuana shop. That's right, Julian the guy who equated legalizing pot with "legalizing murder" has seen the light and the light is green.
The two of them, they're just creepy.
Hadn't heard about Forcillo, but I bet they will just release him again. As for Fantino, as I watched the story last night, I must confess that the contemptible hypocrite was responsible for a few choice expletives escaping my tender lips.
ReplyDeleteRoyson James has some interesting thoughts on him in today's Star: https://www.thestar.com/news/gta/2017/11/14/it-stinks-to-high-heaven-when-top-cops-are-shilling-pot-james.html

ReplyDeleteIt's just another one of those surreal moments that leaves you shaking your head in incomprehension. Is there anyone who's not on the make?
There's no high like a hypocrisy high.
ReplyDeleteIt is rather stunning how our government and their enforcers (OPP) went from weed is terrible and anybody dealing it will pay a heavy price to weed is cool and as a matter of fact we will now be the exclusive dealers of it. Heavy enforcement again if you obtain from other source.
ReplyDeleteSame affair with gambling and to lesser extent alcohol. Same hypocracy. Figure they will ultimately do same with sex trade. All about money and political connections. Mac
Could they do the same with the sex trade industry, given the current social climate and the increasingly contemptuous cultural attitudes towards the various forms of par-for-the-course typical invasive erotic-based hedonistic behaviors of men towards women?
