1. When I did the timeline on Pat King's involvement in the #OttawaOccupation (link below) I didn't include a lot of what I had.

In retrospect there was a lot that I should have included, thus here are with Part II

2. And once again to set the mood and contradicting the "ah shucks, I'm really a nice guy" and "teddy bear" persona Pat has cultivated, here he is during a summer a few years back telling people he is not a nice person and saying he has a record the size of his arm.
3. Based on a redacted intel report during the occupation which is clearly Pat King, this admission might be one of the few things he has said about himself that is accurate.

1. Well it looks like the "Rolling Thunder" event turned into exactly what it was expected to have been, though the participants have been met with a much different police response.

So let's get started.
2. You'll remember that there was a controversy about Holocaust denier Chris Saccoccia's (aka Chris Sky) involvement.

3. Well he is currently in Ottawa and, despite his claims that the police were totally on side, he seems a bit upset.

1. Yesterday was the first protest in Calgary after the injunction was granted to stop protesters from harassing residents in the Beltline.

There are a few excellent threads and I will get to those soon, but I thought I would offer my own $0.02.
2. First, the injunction didn't make protesting "illegal."

For what the injunction did do, take a look at the link.

3. Prior to the protest and in anticipation of the injunction being acted upon, one of the organizing groups (Calgary Freedom Central) posted this on their Facebook page.

Back by popular demand (I don't actually know if that's true)🚨HORNY HONKIES 2🚨This thread dates back to before they came honking to Ottawa-#HornyHonkies: The first Honk.
It began with a question- only looking for anecdotal evidence from the 'boys':
#RamRanchResistance #Freedumb
🚨HORNY HONKIES 2🚨First 'boy' to weigh in suggests waiting a few years. Something tells me that won't be a problem...

Also, find women who are 'woken up.' That's a relief!! This group doesn't strike me as the type to pursue women who are awake.
#RamRanchResistance #HornyHonkies
🚨HORNY HONKIES 2🚨Our OP Honkie doubts he has many years left on this Earth-then why so picky? Take a risk-ask out a vaxxed woman & get rejected! YOLO!

The infertility fear is WILD in #freedumb chats. But that's another thread (stay tuned).

1. I suppose it might be time for another update.

While most of the #OttawaOccupiers have left the city, a number continue to return.

And since they still equate minor inconvenience with tyranny, they continue to stamp their feet and hold their breath.
2. We also see that one of the next stages in this movement is to complain that those organizers and influencers who were arrested are political prisoners.

3.
Some politicians including Brian Jean (who is attempting a political come back) is pushing this narrative.

1. Day 27.

I slept in. I'm okay with that decision.

Here is yesterday's thread.
2. Probably the biggest #OttawaOccupy event today is Pat King's bail hearing. I'll get to that shortly, but my most important news of the day is that I'm starting to kick as at Wordle.

3. The fine folks at @antihateca are live tweeting the hearing. Big news there is the Crown brought forth new evidence that may affect the decision to grant bail and are asking t reopen the hearing.

1. Day 24.

I have a feeling that this is going to be, for all intents and purposes, the last longish thread and it won't focus entirely on this day's events.

Previous thread can be found here.

2. The big story of the morning is that Tamara Lich was denied bail.

1. Day 23 and this might be my last long thread on the subject of the #OttawaOccupation and the blockades.

No doubt there will be other action but perhaps not the level of the past three weeks.

Yesterday's thread below.

2. While I haven't been focusing on the QAnon self-proclaimed Queen, Romana Didulo and her entourage continue to hold court in Ottawa in their world that continues to be divorced from reality.
3. But even she seems to recognize that it is time to go home.

2. First a few things I caught before but didn't post.

First, Tyler Russell of the hate group Canada First believes because he was on a far-right video stream which attracts far-right listeners that they are "inevitable."

Folks, classic example of the echo chamber at work.

🧵1. Let us break down the #GrandmaHorse incident. First we need to see what happened just minutes BEFORE she showed up to the front lines. It was very clear what #OttawaPolice were doing. No surprise to the tactic.

#antivaxxers #Clownvoy #ottawaoccupiers #GoHomeTerrorists
🪡2. Once #GrandmaHorse showed up this streamer decided to present her as a sheild. Almost like those kids we have seen between the cops and parents. Go figure 🙄

#FluTruxClan #cdnpoli #onpoli #ottawaprotest
🪡3. Then we have the ‘now infamous’ #OttawaPoliceFailed ‘trampling’ of #GrandmaHorse where this streamer also did not try to protect her and used her as a sheild himself. Note* the police picked her up immediately.

Trucker in the #Ottawa zello channel saying they took his kids.

Convoy east says police would have no problem going door to door for jews; calls them nazis.

#OttawaOccupation #ottawaoccupiers #FluTrucksClan #GoHomeFluTruxKlan #RamRanchResisitance
I can hear what the protestors call the "mainstream media" in the background of some of these guys' zellos 🤷‍♀️

Another trucker: "I would start doing donuts and start knocking them down like bowling pins" (referring to cops).

So peaceful.

The Convoy to Ottawa chat is missing some trolls... Just an FYI

Why are we tweeting about #OttawaSiege?
Democracy is the solution to the climate crisis.
Our democracy & therefore the climate conditions civilization depends on are under threat. We are protecting it.
We have volunteers in the National Capital Region directly impacted by the #ottawaoccupiers.
We have members across Canada impacted by the #ottawaseige as well the blockades at the international crosses. They are not able go to work and are losing wages.
Since September 2010, we have lobbied our parliamentarians over 1400X. We have cultivated healthy relationships with Parliamentarians on Parliament Hill. We care about our MPs and Senator.

3. So it seems that there is also now a protest delaying traffic at the Ottawa airport.

If this if the "freedoming" Pat King was referring to last night, then weak.

2. Here is Parliament Hill at 9:30 am est.
3. Last night Pat King did a stream. This one was a little different in that it he claimed that he was blowing the lid off a massive conspiracy.

Note, what he describes isn't a conspiracy.
