If you know anybody/business that could sponsor my work in part or in full, or if you yourself want to support.

Everything goes into a Canadian not-for-profit. Which means I'm legally bound to do good.

@nicksays_summer Yep, no need to defend your stance. That's exactly it. You're a public figure, public responsibilities - which means public judgment.

I was just using it as a casual example of the kind of scrutiny you get as a public figure.

[JustinKelly1.Mastodon.social @JustinKellyOTT]

@ArielTroster This is hardly a feminine issue, I just read a tweet yesterday complaining about a counsellor not paying attention, and I could probably dig out tens of posts pointing to people's mannerisms.

People judge, and when you're a public representative doubly so. It is the job.

@DPR_Circulon @CraigSearle1 @Gray_Mackenzie So edgy. Congratulations you made it to high-school level linguistics 😁

Just be careful with those sharp edges so you don't hurt yourself.

@DPR_Circulon @CraigSearle1 @Gray_Mackenzie So to your example. Your argument is that they were misinformed and thus they were overly fearful or reacting in a way that they didn't need to.

To the law, in most cases, people just need to perceive/feel that they are threatened/in trouble.

[JustinKelly1.Mastodon.social @JustinKellyOTT]

@DPR_Circulon @CraigSearle1 @Gray_Mackenzie Let me help you:
- we are a nation of laws
- feelings don't supersede the law
- some laws are based on feelings
- still a nation of laws
- still personal feelings don't supersede the law

Like honestly slow down and understand basic logic.

Lol of course it is Sam Hersh and friends.

@WrinnChris @OC_Transpo Yep, but at some point you got to take responsibility for your own personal safety.

The government can only hold everyone's hand so far.

[JustinKelly1.Mastodon.social @JustinKellyOTT]

@AlecJohnDan @OccTranspo @Gray_Mackenzie And that, is why if the bouncy castle doesn't fit, you must aquit!

[JustinKelly1.Mastodon.social @JustinKellyOTT]

@AlecJohnDan @OccTranspo @Gray_Mackenzie Lol. So what your saying is black is the antithesis... So the protesters were right all along...

[JustinKelly1.Mastodon.social @JustinKellyOTT]

@TheBigMan60 @Gray_Mackenzie Humm what's this then?

@dkreative1 @Gray_Mackenzie Too bad being dumb doesn't make you right.

A protest cannot seriously disturb the peace. Therefore it was not a protest.

And since they were asked to leave... There's a whole host of things they can be charged with.

[JustinKelly1.Mastodon.social @JustinKellyOTT]

@MarcWest79 @fprevost @Gray_Mackenzie Yeah but protesting does not involve seriously disturbing the peace. That's explicitly not defended in the charter.

That's a loss. Try again.

[JustinKelly1.Mastodon.social @JustinKellyOTT]

@dougya1 @Gray_Mackenzie Freedom Fighters... Err Protesters.. err Ambassadors of Peace* 😂

You know, Rodeo Clowns from Alberta.

@X49810Star @Gray_Mackenzie The dumb always finds comfort in blaming others rather then acknowledging that they are indeed stupid.

😂

You've never taken a day of law class and it shows. There's a line between protest and unlawful assembly - how much they disturb the peace.

[JustinKelly1.Mastodon.social @JustinKellyOTT]

@RichardBethell @Gray_Mackenzie You can also occupy without overthrowing the local government. All you have to do is violate the charter by blocking people from lawfully enjoying public land - you know - roads.
