Toronto cops confirm video of Mayor Rob Ford smoking crack and making racist remarks

Video Leaked:

Rob Ford’s going to need a new campaign anthem then. Here’s a suggestion (NSFW):

Unless the video camera used to capture the event has the ability to do remote chemical analysis, there’s really no way to definitively know whether the pipe in question contained crack.

But a good prosecuting attorney would argue that if the mayor takes a hit, you must not acquit.

I don’t actually care if he gets convicted of anything. I don’t support prosecution for drugs, mostly.

However, I do want him to lose his job. If appalling incompetence, brutish bullying and outright homophobia combined with poor bashing and anti-immigrant lunacy won’t do it, then perhaps smoking a crack pipe and hanging out with gangsters will.

Well, they are still gangsters, so I’m not too surprised about the killing and all. But in my head, the murderer said something like ā€œSowrry, buddy, but I’m aboot to shoot you. I hope you don’t mind,ā€ before he did the deed.

Unicorn Chaser please?

Jumpin’ Jeebus! He looks mid-50’s.

There is no law against smoking crack in Canada. It’s illegal to possess it, but not to smoke it (I know, I don’t entirely get it either).

There is no point in discussing criminal charges, this is all about his credibility as a mayor. He had plenty of opportunity to say, ā€œIf someone has a video of me smoking something from a glass pipe, it was not crack I was smokingā€ months ago. Instead he said, ā€œI can’t comment on a video that may not exist.ā€
