Toronto Police goes over the top once again

[frandroid]

Cops busted down the doors of many of my friends and activist acquaintances in the middle of the night to ransack their homes and arrest them due to alleged and trumped-up anti-Semitism accusations. I knew of the arrests but only now learned of some of the names of who was arrested (because they got plastered on the front page of the local right-wing tabloid rag). They had postered and painted slogans on the flagship Indigo bookstore, Heither Reisman's chain, to oppose the current invasion of Gaza. Reisman's foundation has long been funding foreign students to go serve in the IDF. Reisman and her husband Gerry Schwartz were also the architects of the coup that saw the dismantlement of the formerly somewhat liberal and democratic Canadian Jewish Congress, to turn it into the unabashedly Zionist Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs.

This is some bullshit. I don't know most of them but I've known Sharmeen for years. Also there are so many reasons Indigo deserves to get defaced even without their fashy politics.
