[livejournal.com profile] shmeen gave me a heads-up on this front page, and when I saw it I had to buy it, even if it's the National Post...

Jeffrey Monaghan, left, opening anarchist bookstore, and right, as a bureaucrat who leaked details of a government climate change plan.

Man. Bomb the Suburbs. How can this front page be any better?

[livejournal.com profile] lovableatheist is part of the bookstore collective.

I find this whole thing amusing, because in a way, it's obvious that he's playing the media, that he's putting on a whole spectacle for them, although he probably didn't plan on being remembered from the infoshop launch. The media go along because they feel like it's just juicy news that he's also an anarchist and that he's "losing more credibility" than they could be...

For a brief moment, I felt like writing in to the Post to qualify the alarmist book title. Just a moment.

Bomb the Suburbs was my favorite book in 2002! It was what kind of got me into playing music that was "angry and urban".
