I remember the bar incident - the Barbary Coast IIRC. The twit was gay bashing with an arty sim I believe. I leave the name of their unit out of it.

and one guy I recall working with in Victoria liked to get cammed up and illegally hunt deer with a pistol in the northern island area).
Although I must admit Victoria has one of the flakiest populations in Canada. Too many liberals, witches, environmentalists, and druggies who like that fact that they are unlikely to freeze to death if they pass out in the local woods

Danjanou said:PBI,
FYI Direct Action and the Squamish Five were one and the same. They styled themsleves Direct Action after the French Action Directe as one of the founders Ann Hanso had worked on the fringes of that movement. It was the press IIRC that dubbed them the Squamish Five due to where they were arrested and the location of their "training area."
Still a fairly good example of how extreme the fringe elements in our society can get and a bit embarrasing for our military when one considers where the other "leader" Brent Taylor received his training.

2VP said:2 days ago I was going to a coffee shop in my "beloved" city, I was dressed in my DEUs and was driving a military van. I was heading to a ceremony to commemorate the marking of 36 graves of WW1 veterans who had lied in a cemetery forgotten for the last 50 years. As I walked into the coffee shop a bystander called me a "piece of s#$%" I asked him why he would say this, as he didn't know me. he said that he hated all things military, and all we did was go around the world killing people. I dismissed him as an uninformed jackass and moved off. He then continued to berate me, spouting off all sorts of nonsensical crap. Unfortunately this is not an isolated incident around here, I hear stories of fellow service members that I work with, who are either getting spit on, vehicles vandalized, profanities hurled at them on a daily basis.

pbi said:I'm guessing by your "2VP" username that you're referring to Winnipeg? If so, my experience there 2002-2005 was just the opposite, by a very long mile, in just about every way. I still think that actions such as you decribe are in the minority, and carried out by people who probably already resent authority, law and order, anybody in a uniform, etc. It sounds to me like you acted in a reasonable way, but it was wasted on an unreasonable idiot.
Cheers
