| #11 MR. STEACY is an idiotic troglodyte, and likely a drop out. Section Two of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms is the section of the Constitution of Canada's Charter of Rights that lists what the Charter calls "fundamental freedoms" belonging to everyone in Canada, regardless of whether they are a Canadian citizen, or an individual or corporation. These freedoms can be held against actions of all levels of government and are enforceable by the courts. The fundamental freedoms are freedom of expression (e.g. speech), freedom of religion, freedom of thought, freedom of belief, freedom of peaceful assembly, and freedom of association. They are guaranteed but can also be limited by the section 1 of the Charter, and they can be temporarily invalidated by the notwithstanding clause of the Charter. |

| #10 From an interview with Dean Steacey; the principal "anti-hate" investigator of the HRC: MS KULASZKA: Mr. Steacy, you were talking before about context and how important it is when you do your investigation. What value do you give freedom of speech when you investigate one of these complaints? MR. STEACY: Freedom of speech is an American concept, so I don't give it any value. MS KULASZKA: Okay. That was a clear answer. MR. STEACY: It's not my job to give value to an American concept. |

| #9 The Savage vs CAIR might set some precedents for others being sued by CAIR. God I hope so. |

| #8 "There has to be someone out there with the resources to launch a slap suit on all muslim organizations trying this sort of lawfare." There is. Though he is not taking on ALL muzzie lawfare jihadist front groups. Just CAIR. His name is Michael Savage. The case is captioned Savage v. CAIR. You can read about it at the Savage website. Those interested in reading Mark Steyn's comments wrt his on-going defense against the muzzie lawfare jihadists should read his website. Figuratively, with logic and wit, he kills his muzzie opponents. He takes 'em apart in such a manner you might even feel sympathy for the muzzie. (just kiddin' about that last part!) |

| #7 Agree Barb, resistance is to be preferred, but resistance in some places will be futile - Detroit or Phoenix for examples because of the weight of Muslims, or Washington DC or New York because of the strength of PC/Multiculti idiocy. |

| #6 Barb, I'm afraid that's going to be our only option. |

| #4 The civil war approaches. Our own 'elites' are selling out as fast as they can, and they are the ones with the money. Have you escape/resistance plan ready. |

| #3 There has to be someone out there with the resources to launch a slap suit on all muslim organizations trying this sort of lawfare. Not on our side. |

| #2 There has to be someone out there with the resources to launch a slap suit on all muslim organizations trying this sort of lawfare. There is nothing which cannot be described as hate literature in any mosque on earth, starting with the koran. |

| #1 This is their tactic and will be evident in US if this works. This and tying up our courts with frivolous lawsuits. All this can be stopped by throwing this shit onto the dung heap where it belongs. If courts don't stand for our protection, judges must be removed. |
