Ottawa neo-Nazis strike again
With a president-to-be installing a neo-Nazi sympathizer in the White House, the beast is now fully awake. Even in far-away Ottawa.
This synagogue, by the way, is the very place that my brother Bernie Farber and I spoke at a couple years back. Hundreds of people were there. And I can tell you this is a place where children go, every day.
Before that, I covered organized neo-Nazis and white supremacists in Ottawa for years, as a journalist and an author. This attack doesn’t shock me – Ottawa has always had a far bigger problem with anti-Semitism than other cities where I’ve lived, like Vancouver and Calgary. But this cowardly act of evil leaves me feeling both outraged and depressed.
In the meantime, things are unfortunately going to get a lot worse. The sonofabitch isn’t in office yet.
Ottawa Police investigating after a Swastika spray-painted on door at Machzikei Hadas synagogue on Virginia Drive this morning.
There was no problem when “Pussy riot” went into Moscow’s Cathedral of Christ the Savior and desecrate a very prestigious place of worship now was there?. In fact they were treated like heroes back here and had an audience with some very prominent individuals Hillary being one of them.
So you’re saying these swastikas are okay on the side of a synagogue,Sh9368@telus.net at 131.137.245.206?
Why not? Enough of them put them on themselves that they may as well be traditional decoration now.
When we finally get our hands on these lazy gutless turds, they will cite ‘freedom of expression/speech’ as their defence.
Hate is easy, everything else takes work.
Ron,
They don’t know much about Canadian law if they try to invoke the Charter and other legislation.
Not being an expert in this area, I would however suggest, that we should increase penalties for hate crimes so that they effectively act as a more effective deterrent.
