Another wanker giving the CF a bad name....

[Fishbone Jones]

We've been over this Reg vs Res bullshit enough. It always ends in a massive flame war. It's not going to start here either. B PPCLI C, this isn't the first thread where you've taken a cheap jab at the Res. It's not going to be tolerated anymore. Go visit all the other threads on the subject and you'll see all your bitterness and vitriol has been said before. Many times much more eloquently and sensibly.

This thread goes back to the subject now or gets locked.

OK it was all typed out. I just couldn't get in line fast enough.

I would love to see a title sometime "Former CBC reporter commits_________________". Unfortunately the media protects their own or so it seems. Unbalanced but typical.

To be fair to the reporter, this Chen guy said he got interested in firearms while he was in the res. If you were the reporter would you leave that out?

What I would leave out are all the BS words that they use to supposedly link the CF reserve to Muslim Extremists!

As ParaCowboy said.
The press are never to be trusted, believed or fed!

I wonder what they are going to do now? Make the background check lengthier and more detailed?

I have a feeling Mr. Chen stopped taking his medications....

Pappy, you've hit the nail on the head, this boy's right out of 'er. Even the fruitcake Imam apparently thought so.

Jeez...You know things are bad when even the radicals think your off your head...Mind you the Imam knew he was under scrutiny by the RCMP...

I have not trusted the press since they put my name along side an ex-boyfriends who had done some REALLY bad stuff while being in the CF. They would not give me an apology or anything, even thgugh the guy and I had been apart for seven months.

I ended up having to quit my job because it got so much publicity and I was always being asked about "my boyfriend" and what my thoughts were on his crime etc.

Generally reporters do't dig that deep unless you had a connection to the person committing the crimes. Who and/or what case was this. Pm me if your not comfortable speaking about it in the open.

Ah the professionalism of the reserves!

So as you write this, you put the following in your sig line:

"2nd Bn The PPCLI, the battalion that the Canadian forces completely, always, intentionally, forgets and ignores."

Maybe you can define professionalism for us, as I'm very curious as to what you think it means.

When media outlets issue retractions or apologies it's only because they've been contacted by the lawyers of the offended party and their legal counsel figures they stand a good chance of getting soaked in a lawsuit.  Sounds like you would have had a pretty good case, too.

I had never thought about getting a lawyer to do it.... :-\
I was young and thought that a phone call to the ditor would work, but obviously it hasn't.
