So I hear that Iggy has decreed that the Liberals will be supporting bill C-15, otherwise known as the Harper Draconian Crime Bill. The common reason given is that the Liberals don't want the Conservatives to be able to accuse them of being soft on crime in the next election.
See, the problem with that theory is the party leaders still don't seem to understand the nature of our enemy. See, to a hard core Conservative the truth doesn't actually mean anything, as exampled by Harper accusing us of colluding with separatists when a few days later a letter with his signature on it surfaced which showed he tried to do the exact same thing to Prime Minister Martin.
What I'm saying is, the Conservatives will accuse us of being soft on crime if it gets them more votes regardless of whether it's actually true or not. (which of course it isn't) So why don't we just stand up for our principles and vote down this ridiculous bill.

I wrote a letter.should listen.They have been called "soft on crime" before. The Liberals will lose votes by okaying it.
Should be interesting when it gets to the Senate. Nolin is on the commitee hearing it.
Hopefully the marijuana portions will be gutted (while I think manmins for all drugs are bad, the public support for pot decrim seems to be highest) and the bill will be sent back to the house.
