Antifaux counter protester Gisela McKay assaulted my cameraman with a swift knee to the groin.

#cdnpoli #Peterborough
This incident is the real life manifestation of specific acts of violence that Gisela McKay has previously mused about inflicting.

I am the housing lawyer referred to in the attached screenshot.

Very alarming.
To reiterate, I see no equivalency between fascism and antifascism.

My reference to bad actors on “both sides” is specific to individuals who cloak themselves in progressive language while setting back the causes they purport to champion.

Fake, harmful wannabe activists.
Gisela McKay is not that short, and my cameraman is not that tall.

I do not accept that her attack was justifiable. Certainly, she did not act in self-defence.

My opinion is based on attending 150+ rallies in close proximity to hostile people without ever resorting to violence.
The matter is out of my hands.

At this point, my cameraman is considering his options.

King Nico and the gang splurged on accommodations in Peterborough, and are ready to protest drag storytime at the library this morning.

#cdnpoli
A faction of the “freedom” movement has become preoccupied with protesting child-friendly drag events.

King Nico and Chrystal Peters are leading the charge in Ontario.

Last month, I covered events in Hamilton, Brockville, and Welland.
The dynamic is different than run-of-the-mill “freedom” rallies because counter protesters have shown up to oppose anti-drag sentiment.

The counter protesters are not a monolithic group. However, the most vocal among them have deemed my presence harmful.

The Trial of Chris Saccoccia: Day 2
Court should start in about ten minutes.

That’s just enough time to catch up on yesterday’s goings-on:
A minor hiccup.

Yesterday’s key witness (who is in the middle of cross-examination) is having a family medical emergency.

The information provided is sparse.

Crown proposes holding the matter down to get more details, and perhaps proceeding with another witness.

Ah. College Park brings back memories.

I used to come here daily for months after my call to the bar, silently observing as much as possible to get my bearings in criminal law.

Now, six years later, I am back in Courtroom 502.

Stay tuned for the Trial of Chris Saccoccia.
The maximum capacity of this courtroom is sixteen people.

That’s probably two seats for every fan, and three for me so I have space on either side.
The VIP fan club is starting to arrive, decked out in Chris Sky “Civilian Protective Service” hoodies.
