Adam's Ideas

Through a Blue Lens is a documentary following around the popo in Vancouver’s lower east side. What a frightening place to live!

This video is a great way to show how freaking evil hard drugs are. It’s from 1999, but still relevant today.

Props to Kacheena for showing this to me.

The documentary leaves out a lot of issues since it only concentrates on how awful addicts’ lives are. There’s no discussions around how to help addicts beyond telling them to go to a methadone clinic. The cops come across as caring in some scenes and downright patronizing in others.

Here’s a quick thought, since California is the state most likely to go bankrupt thanks to bipartisan efforts to destroy the American economy, will Cali be the first state to break away from the republic?

Oh, and on a side note – Toronto police admit CCTV setups don’t prevent crime, but want the cameras anyway.

One of the best Toronto blogs, perhaps the best, Torontoist is closing down on Dec. 31st.

This is not a good thing. It’s a really solid site with good writers and I really hope that it will live on in some form or another. It very well could, thanks to this quickly created facebook group to revive the blog.

This song is better than the last one I posted:

They call me loyalty. They call me propaganda!

My favourite lyric from this amazing freedom loving ballad:

“Don’t tell me who’s wrong and who’s right when liberties start slipping away.”

Ignorance is bliss.
