Toronto-The Star-Spangled Banner claims that the United States of America is the “home of the brave.” On the surface, these lyrics appropriately describe a nation that is balancing two wars.

Innisfil-This will be the shortest article in the website’s history because its message is too simple for a loquacious essay.
In a democratic society, violent protests are not a means to gain sympathy for an opinion. To all the vandals and cop car burners: You are moronic thugs. Nobody is going to listen to your lines of reasoning, even if they are sound. Leave my city and play Russian Roulette or whatever you idiots do to amuse yourselves. If you die in your aimless “uprising,” you will have only yourselves to blame.

Toronto-“Sexting” connotes youth electronically transmitting suggestive images of themselves. Since the Louisianan Senate judiciary committee progressed legislation to criminalize “sexting” last week, the growing neologistic phenomenon, has been a ubiquitous topic of discourse. (more…)

Toronto-Most vindications of Canada’s ridiculous G-20 Summit spending rely on the presupposition of societal naivety. The nation, apparently, ought to build grand pavilions in order to woo the world’s masses to travel to “our home and native land.” Perhaps, the conference will teach a few foreigners that Canadians do not live in igloos and ride polar bears.

Donning these uniforms on May 5 would normally be a celebratory Cinco de Mayo gesture. But, the Mexican holiday is certainly not the reason for choosing alternate apparel. Put simply, “Los Suns” paraphernalia is an opportunity for the organization to protest Arizona’s new immigration policy. (more…)
