    Those people are showing up because they are afraid of their own government. I know I’m right. A mom does not show up with her kids as a human shield willingly.

    If the iranian regime gave a single fuck about their people they would urge women and children to seek shelter.

      “I know I’m right” isn’t the compelling argument you might feel it is. Wouldn’t you be a vocal supporter of your community in similar circumstances?

        You mean if Canada was about to be bombed by Trump, would I be a vocal supporter of Carney asking women and young people to form a human shield on the patullo bridge for example?

          No need to be a fervent supporter of the current administration to be a supporter of your community, and showing affront to the TACO.

            I mean it’s easy to say this now that he’s chickened out. All those people could have died for zero reason.
