So, a bunch of Canadian cities flew the Pride flag today to support LGBT athletes.

Rob Ford didn't like this, and when he showed up at city hall in Toronto, he ordered to have the flag taken down and replaced with a Canadian flag. Rob Ford doesn't have the authority to do that, so the flag stayed. In protest, Rob Ford taped a Canadian flag to the window of his office because he has the emotional maturity of a 12 year old.

Shouldn't he be plotting assassinations considering the city council went all Roman senate on him?

isnt the only reason ford is in office because the suburbs of toronto were allowed to vote in the mayoral election?

I thought the opening ceremony was really nice actually. NBC's lovely commentating aside. I couldn't give a gently caress what Matt Lauer has to say about the Soviet era and the lack of any acknowledgement of Holodomor or how those horrible soviets minimized the idealization of the individual. gently caress.

Also I lolled at the comment about how only the elite few were part of hipster culture in 1950s-60s Russia, as if that isn't true in America today.

Edit: loved the overt message about re-population.
