Whoa, this guy's awesome!!!
The Chron decides that the best journalism is ass-kissing journalism, as it bows down to worship some activist, Al Birney, who fucked up a perfectly good suicide location in Toronto.
"When a space shuttle goes up in flames, a nation goes into mourning. When the mentally ill jump, it's 'Let the bastards die,'" he said.
*sigh* Should we explain it again? They were trying to die. They died. Okay, fine, case closed. Note the difference between this and folks who were doing something dangerous for the sake of science, or, more importantly, something that doesn't involve trying to die. So yes, it's exactly "Let the bastards die."
"The council acknowledged that if it could be done, it should be done," said Toronto Deputy Mayor Joe Pantalone. "It was hard to argue when you came face-to-face with people who lost a son or a daughter. When they stare you in the eye, it's hard to say, 'Go away, lives are not worth spending money on.'"
Yes, it is hard. If you can't handle it, you shouldn't be governing anyone. If you can be manipulated so easily, what use are you?
