Mississauga News - Mar. 21, 2010 - By Torstar Network Citizen advocate's lawsuit in question Time is running out for self-styled City Hall watchdog Donald Barber to sue Mississauga and Peel Regional Police over his arrest in 2006 on assault charges that were subsequently withdrawn. Comments by others - 18 - to this web-page at time of posting; The Mississauga Muse Mar 24, 2010 6:50 PM Clarification request 2 of Mantis Me again. Just asking for clarification of something else you wrote. This part, "I'm all for democracy Barber...you don't comprehend democracy. You don't understand what when the voters reject you (as they have rejected you many many times), you're done." I agree with that "you're done" part. Question. What IS Democracy to you? And yes, serious question. * Agree The Mississauga Muse Mar 24, 2010 6:47 PM Clarification request of Mantis Mantis, you write, " With that in mind, a rational person would know that they don't have the right to represent anyone at council, you don't have the right to show up and hold a virtual seat on council through the visitor's gallery." I'm intrigued by your comment (clipped for brevity) "a rational person would know that... you don't have the right to show up and hold a virtual seat on council through the visitor's gallery." Please explain. * Agree Mantis Mar 24, 2010 11:20 AM I'm A realist, Not A "Demoralizer" You wacky Barberites (Barber himself included) need to clue into the reality that virtually nobody in this city supports you. Virutally nobody agrees with anything you say or do and virtually nobody votes for you. With that in mind, a rational person would know that they don't have the right to represent anyone at council, you don't have the right to show up and hold a virtual seat on council through the visitor's gallery. Until you get a majority of voters to support you, you don't have a voice in the affairs of the city beyond what anyone else has. * Agree 1 Tony Jackson Mar 24, 2010 10:28 AM Mantis is a third-rate Demoralizer! Mantis’ comments don’t deserve a response from Don. Loosing an election should not affect the good spirit of the community activists. Barber must keep fighting hard for the common cause. * Agree Think About It Mar 24, 2010 10:15 AM What is a Barberite and whom is suing whom for Libel Seditious Hate Propaganda? http://www.mississauga.com/opinion/letters/article/647502--fighting-terrorists-is-not-an-unnecessary-cause Mantis Mar 24, 2010 9:41 AM I'm All For Democracy Barber I'm all for democracy Barber...you don't comprehend democracy. You don't understand what when the voters reject you (as they have rejected you many many times), you're done. After being rejected by the electorate, you don't represent anyone, you don't sit on council and you don't get to call the shots. You certainly don't get to assault security guards or get a free pass on trespassing in the council chambers when you were clearly and unambiguously told to leave. Skuns and Salamanders are about the only residents of Mississauga who don't comprehend that you are an utter fool who will NEVER be mayor. * Agree 2 Mantis Mar 24, 2010 9:38 AM Looks like the rest of the looney-tune Barberites are out! Barber, you are a complete and utter moron and your inane posts here show that quite clearly. I'm curious....show the post where I called you right-wing....I've correctly lebelled you as a left-wing fringe lunatic. One has only to look at your hilarious website and even funnier Youtube pages to see that! If you're so convinced that you are right then proceed to trial with your claim. I'll be the guy laughing my head off afterwards when your claim gets tossed out and you probably end up in bracelets for contempt of court! * Agree 2 Think About It Mar 23, 2010 11:05 PM Who is sueing who? Mantis writes - Mar 9, 2010 8:57 PM " @WatcherOIO You really are coming close to libel with some of those remarks.".... http://www.mississauga.com/news/article/626380--no-heavyweight-rival-on-the-horizon-not-so#Comments * Agree WatcherOIO Mar 23, 2010 8:52 PM Must read for Mantis - no don't Take heart yes of little mind, you are wining your war against freedoms and Democracy. In the letter called - Democracy is dying - it is noted as much. Yes many times fear and hate has turned the tide of history and what was built, is burned down. Take pride in your work - I can only shine my spirit by saving living things, like skunks and salamanders. Boy if he ever saw what I post on my Youtube site - freakout. * Agree Tony Jackson Mar 23, 2010 7:38 PM Mantis in Sheep’s Clothing… The city of Mississauga is not an autocratic police (pseudo) state. The people in power must respect the citizens and citizen-activists/critics. Otherwise, the city of Mississauga Council (the lowest level of government in Canada) must have an “official opposition” (which is indispensable in democratic system) to keep check and balance on the politicians exercising power. If you eliminate participatory democracy at the municipality level, you are abandoning your city to the ‘crime syndicate’. People like Don, Muse, Willis and others who bother and dare to care the city’s affairs are truly INDISPENSABLE. * Agree 5 Uatu Mar 23, 2010 5:51 PM Muse: you are asking the tide not to come in Mantis has NEVER repeat NEVER backed up anything with a fact. I will be shocked if that changes. (Pretty quick with the insults and personal attacks though.) * Agree 2 The Mississauga Muse Mar 23, 2010 4:14 PM Mantis You toss all of these Absolutes out here about what happened on June 7, 2006. Show us the data to support your proclamations that the City acted properly. Show us the DOCUMENTATION to back up what YOU wrote about the City of Mississauga's Corporate Security guards and the City's Security operation. That's all I ask. Back up your "the City acted properly". I need to know what "properly" means to you. Thanks. * Agree 2 Mantis Mar 23, 2010 3:43 PM @WatcvherOIO You're the only wing-nut around here. Jus tlisten to yourself and watch that hilarious Benny Hill style video of you getting chased around council chambers. Like all left-wing extremists, you need to clue into reality. You need to clue into the fact that you DO NOT SIT ON COUNCIL. You are not now nor will you ever be the mayor. You have repeatedly been resounadingly REJECTED by the voters. You' acted like a spoiled petulent child and it was caught on camera. You're not a good-guy, you're a perennial fringe candidate for mayor and a laughing stock. * Agree 1 Mantis Mar 23, 2010 12:00 PM Police Did Their Job The police did their job and the did it properly. So did the city. You were clearly in the wrong. You were told to leave and you refused so they removed you. * Agree 1 Watcher0I0 Mar 23, 2010 11:18 AM What no comments??? I am down and the City & police kicking me in the head legally - time to join in like true supporters of the Mayor and those who want to end all our Democratic Rights. * Agree 1 Home Page - Main Table of Contents - Back up a page - Back to Top [COMMENTS BY DON B. - ] |
