Protesters are Genital Herpes….News at 11
Vancouver, BC (AP) - I can see a new series of vitriol starting here. I’m getting real tired of these lazy bums ruining our cities.
Yesterday was the unveiling of the new ‘2010 Olympics Countdown Clock’ on the grounds in front of the Vancouver Art Gallery. It is three years till the start of the 2010 Winter Olympics, and the vast, vast, vast majority of British Columbians are tickled pink about that. Apparently about 60 are not.
There was ugliness as police were forced by these losers to haul away seven of them. A bunch of them showed up wearing balaclavas and masks and were carrying eggs filled with paint and rocks wrapped in paper mache'. One even managed to get onstage and swear at the crowd before being hauled away by a small security force. What a shame that such a fine opportunity to showcase the beauty of the city and the event was marred by these lowlifes.
After careful consideration of the situation and taking into consideration all possible viewpoints, there is but one conclusion that can be reached and it is this:
If you have a point to make, say it. That is your right.
However, the protesters that marred the unveiling of the clock are in fact the social equivalent of genital herpes. They are ugly and unpleasant and unwanted and un-needed. They are an ill to the whole and potentially damaging to many. You can’t always see them, but unfortunately, they never really go away.
There. I feel a little better now.
