Anarchist professional protesters vandalize West Toronto

From GenuineWitty:

Back in November a group of anarchists and militant protesters connected to Occupy Toronto converged on West Toronto in protest of a nuclear fuel processing plant run by GE-Hitachi. Led by Zach Ruiter, the protest quickly became a farce. The people in the neighbourhood were unhappy how the publicity hurt their property values- many became quite hostile to Zach’s regularly blocking neighbourhood traffic with his motley crew of dissidents. There was some dissent within the ranks too after Ruiter turned his marches into cop-baiting sessions.

This week it’s become clear how negative of an impact of Ruiter’s protests have had on the neighbourhood. The protesters have progressed from causing simple inconveniences to vandalizing infrastructure across several city blocks. All together 32 pirces of anti-nuclear graffiti have been identified- stretching from Dupont & Bartlett up to St Clair and across to Landsdowne avenue. The people I’ve spoken to in the area are far from impressed…

The Globe and Mail celebrates vandals and criminals because they are anti-Ford

Oh, great.

The people who go around vandalizing public property used to be criminals and hoods. But because the ruling aristocracy at the Globe and Mail is offended by a brash outsider holding on to Toronto's mayoralty, they now celebrate low-lifes as "the grafitti community" since they share the Globe's disdain for Rob Ford.

Thank you, mainstream Toronto media, for making yourself increasingly irrelevant.
