DEVIL'S ADVOCATE

When I met David Suzuki I asked him "What is the Number 1 threat to
the existence of the human species on our planet right now?" I was
thinking a plague, or a virus, a pestilence, or some asteroid on a
collision course with Earth. He remained calm. To him the answer was
simple. "Not enough human beings are raised in an environment of
love," he said. "I have conducted studies of children all over the
world, and the ones who are not raised in an environment of love are
dropping like flies."

He explained to me that without love, and the structure necessary to
facilitate love, some human beings lack love, do not love themselves,
and become self-destructive. Enter James Roszko.

In a news story of this size and scope, the first casualty in the
mainstream media is the truth. So-called journalists are supposed to
be emotionally detached from the stories they cover, so they can lay
bare the reality to the public. Media come in all forms, tabloid,
gonzo, corporate and mainstream. For several days, hysterical
cubicleonian journalists got quotes from sabre-rattling politicians
over firearms registration, organized crime, and marijuana grow operations.

Shortly thereafter, the mainstream media played their Orwellian word
association game. Marijuana-Grow Operation-Four Cops Killed. We have
seen this before. Muslim-Fundamentalist-Terrorist.
Native-Reservation-Alcoholic. Male-Black-Criminal.
Male-White-Racist.

See? Pushing your political agenda through the media in the midst of
the nation's grief is how you keep your job. It seems as if some
politicians shed crocodile tears to further their agenda of cannabis
prohibition. Some politicians would rather have Health Canada approve
pharmaceuticals responsible for thousands of deaths every year, than
tell the truth about the medicinal value of the cannabis plant.

In reality, the police went to James Roszko's farm with legal cause,
to serve him paperwork over non-payment of a leased truck. What was
the make, model and year of the truck? What was the value of the
truck? What was the value of the other stolen goods mentioned in the
media? What were those stolen goods? While on the property, police
noticed the truck in question, and also a so-called marijuana grow
operation. How many plants? What was their value? How many lights?
What was the growing area?

While on the job, doing their duty, the officers were all murdered by
James Roszko with an assault rifle, which had previously been called a
high-power rifle. Of what calibre? What was the make and model of the
weapon? What was the value of the weapon? Was it registered or not?
How many shots were fired? What happened?

Only the RCMP can determine exactly what happened. When its
investigation is done, the whole story will be revealed. Politicians,
police and the families of the slain will mourn, and hopefully find
peace. Thursday March 10 is a national day of remembrance for four
young men who tried to make the world a better place. They were killed
by a man who was called "a wicked devil" by his own father.
