Spreading the word a little today because well, I'm fed up with this guy and thought more people should know what he is up to. It makes it worse when on delves into the ties that he has to various 'white' power groups who support his stuff. Offensive in so many ways? I should think so. Hamilton Spectator http://tinyurl.com/smpkl
quote: He took credit for supposedly turning media attention away from the land claim issue onto the OPP's policing of the demonstration. McHale compared himself to Martin Luther King Jr. and vowed to expand his battle against what he called "two tier justice" and make Caledonia an issue in this fall's provincial election.
He's been on this MLK kick for a while now, even to the point of rewriting one of MLK's speeches for his own thing. It's finally making the MSN.

I'm always left wondering what the MSM angle could possibly be by never going more in depth about this. Our media is horrible. It truly is. Not one journalist has the courage to report the truth. Not one.
So true stargazer! All you have to do to know that is tslk to anyone whose source of news is the msm, and you know it has been biased agsainst Six Nations because people have those biases. We are taking on the msm one at a time, and have currently changed the way the Hamilton Spectator reports the news. Witness the above report that makes it clear McHale is a doofus! Next!

Except of course those who want to take "ownership" of the dialogue to support their echo chamber racist beliefs.It is much like the neo-cons trying to take ownership of Tommy Douglas as he was a minister. Or them trying to say your only a "Christian" if you adhere to far right neo-con thinking.
And that is very true, remind. However, it is a mistake to dismiss him and others like him. There are enough with echo-chamber hearts to make the msm media take notice, and spin a fancy news story their way. It is not long before everyone is talking about "two-tier" justice, and it gains credibility through repetition, if nothing else. The arguments of a spin master have a life of their own, beyond the bounds of intelligent thought. [ 17 January 2007: Message edited by: saga ]
