Mostly what I learnt was about the media. They play at being unbiased, but their slant is always so evident to those who open their eyes. For instance, they were talking about the "desecration" of the Terry Fox statue, and I thought oh boy, what did the protesters do? Draw a mustache? Throw paint on it? Saw through the head and mount it on a pike above a truck?
Oh....oh, they hung a Canadian flag on it?
And an easily removable sign?
No damage whatsoever
Desecration my ass.
Contrast this to when paint was thrown on a statue of John A MacDonald. Or when another was toppled. The CBC called those people "activists" (instead of hate groups), and never once mentioned the word desecration. At worst, there were mentions of "vandalism", and that was quotes from other people.
