Once upon a time, 'safety' was about avoiding real danger, now it's simply a polite way of saying 'shut up and comply
“Safety used to mean something concrete—the absence of imminent harm, the presence of reasonable protections. Seatbelts keep you safe. Locking your doors at night keeps you safe. Not playing in traffic keeps you safe. But slowly, almost imperceptibly, “safety” has morphed into something far more abstract, elastic enough to justify nearly any loss of liberty or privilege. “We’re banning that doctor who questions vaccines from social media to keep you safe. We’re removing that book of natural cancer cures from Amazon to keep you safe.
We’re tracking your every move and morsel to keep you safe.”
The real question is: Where does it end? (It’s rhetorical—because it doesn’t.)”

Saw this walking the dog this afternoon. Tomorrow I think I might knock on their door and tell them I love it.
Fringe pours cold water on Pardy continually meddling and over thinking Alberta Independence.
Pardy is an academic just like Preston Manning.
They over think and over analyze.
Nothing would ever get accomplished or done following the thought process of these two.
I’m done with Pardy.
He’s an Ontarioan who has no comprehension of the Alberta “getter done” work ethic.
P.S. Pardy …you can’t stop a freight train in motion with hypotheticals… and Alberta Independence is now a freight train, so get off our track Pardy.
