As far as I have heard this video was sent out of the cop shop to a friend, the cop's friend was pissed about the privacy issues concerning this video so he sent it to a few people... This seemed to have ended up in the hands of a pastor who have a son with interest in the video and an account on c..junction.com
The thing I wonder about all this is the effects for us in terms of seeing this kind of imagry - sites like the above, ogrish.com, and rotten.com.. Should we be able to handle it?
A Canadian watching the US folks...

Should You Vote?

Hi There,
I'm a Canadian (from Toronto) watching the Americans and this process of choosing a president. I find it curiously interesting how the process works down there. For one, the 8 year limit on a President is a novel idea and makes sense ( I don't think we have that here). Most of the politics in the US, however, are dry, boring, beamed here on a constant basis. I'm almost ready to vote for Gore. Just for the record (if your gonna start a pool), I think Gore is best for Canada's future. Bush is waaay too American for me!
We are inundated with these images of Gore and Bush.. While I like Gore more, but they are both the same! I tell you, no one would ever say Joe Clark, John Turner and Pierre Treudeau were the same. And aren't there supposed to be more then two choices? I've heard there were more, but no one ever mentions them. I guess no-one expects those guys to win.
I think voting is an essential part of the process and it's your most important duty as a citizen of your country, city or town. I still feel good about voting for Mike Harris..
It's just sad that if Cretien announces an election in the next three weeks, it won't even be noticed but the media.. go figure.
Thanks,
Kevin Costain
