Government Passes Anti-Constitutional Surveillance Law During Ottawa Shooting | FreeThePressCanada
A
terrible tragedy befell the nation’s capital yesterday, when a shooter
opened fire at government sites in Ottawa. A full investigation must
begin to assemble the details, as the flames of hysteria are fanned in
the public consciousness. The words “terror” and “terrorism” have been
tossed around so casually, that nowadays any hardened criminal would
classify as a terrorist according to the Harper Government and
mainstream news sources. For that matter, political activists who take
issue with the government’s policies at home and abroad are referenced in the same manner.
On
the opposite end of the spectrum, social media is rife with suspicion
that this horrendous event may represent a false flag operation, to
assist the government’s dismantling of civil liberty and human rights in
the name of war, profit, political posturing and public control.
That’s
not to say this wasn’t an act of terrorism. Maybe it was, but surely
it’s too early to reach a conclusion when the names of suspects hadn’t
been released to hypothesize a motive. Or had they?
