Unions are terrorist organizations

What do terrorists do?

In extreme cases they kill you or someone you love, and in mild cases, they make your life miserable. Just like swine flu, it can kill you in extreme cases, and in mild cases it can make you weak for a few days, lying in bed and feeling miserable. So, in short, terrorists terrorize your life.

Unions are very similar to terrorist organizations, but at the milder end of the spectrum. When the union workers of a manufacturing plant are on strike, they make the lives of their non-union colleagues miserable: their non-union colleagues are stopped at the picket line for15 minutes or so before being allowed to enter the premises and work.

When the unions are of public servants, the terrorist territories are much, much wider. For example, in April last year (2008), the sudden Toronto Transit (TTC) workers strike terrorized the innocent working people who worked hard to earn every penny to put food on the table for the family.

An even better example is what is happening right now here in Toronto. The City of Toronto employees started to strike on June 22, 2009. The strike, as of today, has lasted a month and is counting.

Because of the strike, garbage is not being picked up by city workers. The City of Toronto has opened up some dump sites for people to dump their garbage, so people have to put their garbage in their car and drive to a dump site. Yet, the strike workers will not miss any opportunity to terrorize; they set up picket line in front of the entrance to the dump sites, they delay people for 15 minutes or more, they do not allow people to drive to the dump area so people have to carry their garbage and walk to the dump area in the hot summer days.

To me, this is not much difference from a terrorist. Innocent people’s life is being terrorized and made miserable. “Hold on,” you may say, “terrorists usually kill innocent people!”

The strike workers may not be as violent as the kind of terrorists we get used to through the media, but apparently they start to cause death.

Last week, a 50-year-old man had a heart attack in the lobby of an apartment building in mid-town Toronto just after 11 p.m. Neighbors rushed to help. They called 911. A security guard of the building arrived within minutes and was told that an ambulance had been called. People were sent to different entrances to watch for paramedic people. The security guard called 911 again to say the man had no pulse. The paramedics finally arrived at about 11:45 p.m., some 45 minutes after the first 911 call. The man, unfortunately, died.

Arguably, he became the first casualty of the union strike, but I’m sure he won’t be the last one, as unions may plan to step up their terrorizing power in the future. Stay tuned for the next terrorist attack, and be prepared for being terrorized.

LGBTTIQQ2S becomes LGBTTIQQ2SI

During the Pride Parade week in Toronto this year, I saw various acronyms, and basically all of them are shorter variations of this one: LGBTTIQQ2S. LGBTTIQQ2S includes all the people with the following sexual orientations or inclinations that the Pride Parade embraces:

• Lesbian: a woman whose sexual orientation is towards women.


• Gay: a man whose sexual orientation is towards men. This term can also be used generally to mean to be sexually attracted to people of the same gender, thus including lesbians.


• Bisexual: a person whose sexual orientation is towards both men and women.


• Transgender: a person who is self-aware of not being the gender of what appears to be on the outside. For example, someone with male gender but always thinks that he should be a woman. In other words, a “a woman trapped in a man’s body.”


• Transsexual: a subgroup within the transgender group. Someone who is a transgender but takes action to bring them closer to who they think they are. For example, someone with male gender, but who always thinks that he should be a woman, has already undergone (or at least intends to undergo) hormonal and/or physical treatment to make him a woman.


• Intersex: someone who is born with biological characteristics of both male and female genders.


• Queer: an umbrella term referring to the LGBTTQQ2S community.


• Questioning: someone who is unsure of, or trying to determine their sexual orientation.


• 2-Spririted: a native term referring to people who fulfill a both gender roles within their community, but not specifically a state of sexuality.

As my previous blog says, soon incesters will have to be added to the list, and LGBTTIQQ2S will become LGBTTIQQ2SI.

Trudeau supports incest?

During the 2009 Toronto Pride Parade, some political parties have their floats to support the event, e.g., the Liberals, and the NDP. The Liberal’s float is a double-decker bus with a banner across the upper deck that says, “The state has no business in the bedroom of the nation.” On the left is a picture of George Smitherman, a Member of Provincial Parliament representing Toronto Centre, and on the right is a picture of Bob Rae, a (federal) Member of Parliament representing the same riding Toronto Centre (see the picture above).

Being the first time I read/heard this statement, I totally agree that the nation should not be nosing around and regulate what people do in their private home. I never like police-state governments. Governments should not over-regulate, and yet they should maintain fairness across all its citizens.

I thought the statement was made by Bob Rae because he is in the federal politics. After I got home, I did some googling, and found that it was Pierre Elliott Trudeau who made this remark on December 21, 1967 when he was Canada’s Minister of Justice, prior to becoming Canada’s 15th Prime Minister in April, 1968.

This statement was in my mind on and off many times a few days after the parade. As long as the adults are consenting, it should not be the nation’s business to probe around whether they are heterosexual or homosexual, gay or lesbian, or any other sexual orientations.

Then I stumbled on a thought: What if the consenting adults are closely related? Like father and daughter, mother and son, or brother and sister? Or even father and son, mother and daughter, for that matter?

Incest, I believe, is still criminal in Canada. I am 200% against incest. Trudeau’s statement does not have pre-qualifications on the consenting adults, and to be fair and open, it should also include incestuous adults. One may arguably conclude that Pierre Trudeau supports incest.

Where to draw the line? Can someone please help me fathom it?

Toronto Pride Parade 2009

This past Sunday (June 28, 2009) I went to see Toronto’s 29th Annual Pride Parade. It was my first time actually seeing the parade in person. I had watched it on the TV in previous years. I am not gay, and I am not against gay. In fact, I have no problem at all with some of my friends being gay.

The parade was to start at 2:00pm. I arrived at the intersection of Yonge and Bloor at about 1:30pm. It was raining, heavier at times. Soon after the parade began, the rain waned into drizzles.

But there were things I saw that really puzzled me. There was a man with long hair – his hair was down halfway to his back – at first I thought he was a woman. He was completely naked and I could clearly see his penis swinging as he walked with the float – this was how I ascertained that he was not a woman but a man. I wanted to take a photo, but it was too late; he walked past me. I missed taking a picture of him in the front.

Later on, there was another man on the float. He did not wear anything but just used a piece of cloth to wrap around his waist, but he did not wrap it well (on purpose perhaps?) so that his penis half-shown and half-hidden. This time I took a picture, even though it doesn’t show that well. The red circle in the picture shows what should not be shown in public.

There was a woman who just showed her bare boobs outright. There were two or three other woman who did not have anything on their upper bodies except covered with paint, and one could clearly see their boobs and teats clearly. But, of course, one could still argue that this is not nudity because it was covered in paint.

My understanding is that public nudity is against the law. Actually I believe it’s a crime because the Canada Criminal Code forbids it. There were police watching. Why didn’t they take any action? Do I understand the law wrong? Or is it that being gay or lesbian is above the law? Someone please help me fathom it.

I welcome your comments.

What the heck is a Torontoer?

To me, what a great way to day to celebrate Canada Day by starting this new blog!

You may ask, What is a Torontoer? A Torontoer is a person who lives in the GTA (Greater Toronto Area).

What’s the difference between a Torontonian and a Torontoer?
A Torontonian is a person who lives in the City of Toronto, and a Torontoer, as I just said, is a person who lives in the GTA (Greater Toronto Area).

Other than the minor geographical differences in the habitat location of a person, the most significant difference between Torontonians and Torontoers is in their temperament.

Torontonians tend to be softer, gentler and easy-going. They tend to submit meekly and unprotestingly to bullying, torsion, and unfairness.

Torontoers are more open, outspoken and yet value fairness. They don’t take things at face value because things have been done in that way in the past. They critically question why things should be done or should happen in a certain way. They voice out loudly when things are not fair, or simply don’t make sense. They may even consider taking actions.
