I’ve been wondering about this…here in Canada, we have a tool authorities can use, called the Riot Act. Don’t you have it?
It works this way: a government official reads (through a loudspeaker) to the crowd that effective immediately, all rights to assembly are suspended and you must leave the area or you will be subject to arrest for rioting. And they release the hounds. Very effective.

Yeah, I guess it’s time to cancel the cancel culture and go back to the comfy, cozy status quo of systemic racism…
…or not.

Cancel culture – withdrawing support for public figures or companies that say or do something people consider objectionable.
AKA – boycotting, voting with your wallet, voting with your feet, taking responsibility for who and what you support directly or indirectly.
You inow, being a responsible adult in a free country!
The current label stinks, though, so I’m going to exercise my freedom of speech and not change what I have always called it.
Freedom of CHOICE.
