RE: 'Hateful' online post spurs complaint to City of Hamilton. (Hamilton Spectator of this date.)
The thought police are hard at it again. The question
is whether or not the latest white boy to put his foot in his mouth is going to
get politically beheaded – as an act of sacrifice and virtue signaling by other
white boys.
The offender in question, James Kaspersetz, made an abasing
apology even though the alleged opinion expressed was based on facts.
That 15 of the 19 hijackers on 9/11 were Saudi is true. That they were
motivated by Saudi’s Wahhabism ideology is true. That we have some 15,000
Saudis present in Canada on student visas is true. That Sharia law is
gaining a foothold in Canadian jurisprudence in true.
Apparently, observing those facts is politically offensive
to one person among the one million people who live in the Niagara area.
Is the complainant Mr. Mo Al Jumaily a Saudi? Is he a
mind-reader? In short, does he have standing to complain about what
is in the mind of Mr. Kaspersetz? What relevance have these opinions to
the job of overseeing the mismanagement of the NPCA?
Of far more relevance to the job are Mr. Kaspersetz’s
opinions on anthropogenic global warming. Only the most strident opinions
on that subject is acceptable, and on that we haven’t heard. Who cares to
mind-read the offensiveness of opinions on immigration policy when the fate of
the world turns on timely action by the NPCA?
Enough with thought policing!
