00:00:00.500 You're listening to a Rebel Media Podcast.
00:00:03.840 Tonight, the police investigation into Faisal Hussain is made public.
00:00:08.780 It's June 24th, I'm David Menzies, and this is the Ezra Levent Show.
00:00:15.300 Why should others go to jail when you're a biggest carbon consumer I know?
00:00:19.120 There's 8,500 customers here, and you won't give them an answer.
00:00:23.200 The only thing I have to say to the government, the why I'm publishing,
00:00:26.760 is because it's my bloody right to do so.
00:00:30.000 So, almost a year after that grotesque act of carnage
00:00:38.960 that would come to be known as the Danforth shooting,
00:00:42.220 the Toronto Police investigation into this mass shooting
00:00:45.540 was finally released to the public on Friday.
00:00:48.840 Now, the actual investigation had wrapped many moons ago,
00:00:52.660 yet it isn't all that surprising why the police weren't champing at the bit
00:00:57.420 to release this document in the first place.
00:01:00.720 That's because this previously embargoed investigation is truly incredible,
00:01:06.380 not for what it says, but rather for what it doesn't say.
00:01:11.740 Indeed, if you had to give this investigation a working title,
00:01:14.980 it would surely be Operation Nothing Burger.
00:01:18.160 To recap, last July, Faisal Hussain walked along Toronto's delightful Danforth Avenue
00:01:25.000 on a sublime Sunday evening.
00:01:27.820 As citizens, both young and old, were eating ice cream and sipping lattes,
00:01:32.600 Hussain started selectively shooting people.
00:01:35.640 He killed two and injured 13 before turning the gun on himself.
00:01:39.960 By the way, when I say selectively shooting people,
00:01:43.100 that's because not everyone Hussain encountered that evening
00:01:46.720 was deemed to be a suitable and therefore shootable target.
00:01:51.820 I'll expand on that a little later on.
00:01:54.340 In any event, when the dust settled,
00:01:56.300 we yet again bore witness to the bitter harvest of another mass shooting.
00:02:01.260 Yet again, another gross act of terrorism had erupted,
00:02:04.440 even though the usual suspects were aghast
00:02:07.940 when it came to actually uttering the dreaded T-word,
00:02:11.640 given the identity politics at play here.
00:02:14.820 As is par for the course,
00:02:16.640 the du rigueur makeshift memorials popped up all around,
00:02:20.580 followed by the usual speeches of how the dearly departed
00:02:23.460 would be in our thoughts and in our prayers.
00:02:26.100 And of course, there were more teddy bears
00:02:28.220 than one finds at a typical carny game.
00:02:31.860 We've seen it all before.
00:02:33.100 We'll surely see more of it in the future.
00:02:36.600 Welcome to the new abnormal.
00:02:39.200 And yet, from the get-go,
00:02:40.840 so many things about this particular mass shooting,
00:02:43.980 they just didn't add up.
00:02:45.720 For starters, it was most curious
00:02:47.460 why the Toronto police employed the cone of silence
00:02:50.880 pertaining to the identity of the deceased gunman.
00:02:54.740 More than 24 hours would elapse
00:02:56.560 before the name of Faisal Hussain
00:02:58.480 would finally be made public.
00:03:00.900 This was truly inexplicable.
00:03:03.100 The cops knew who the dead gunman was
00:03:05.740 and his next of kin had been notified,
00:03:08.520 so why the delay?
00:03:10.840 Well, incredibly, someone took the time to
00:03:13.560 pen a press release on the behalf of the gunman's mother and father.
00:03:17.960 I'm not kidding.
00:03:19.300 This media release, written in perfect English,
00:03:22.180 would adroitly explain their son's struggle with mental illness.
00:03:26.800 But of course it would,
00:03:28.420 for this seems to be the ongoing narrative
00:03:30.600 when it comes to a Muslim carrying out acts of terror these days.
00:03:34.400 It has nothing to do with the ideology or the radicalization,
00:03:39.360 but rather, it's the end result of mental illness.
00:03:44.680 Indeed, remember the case of Ayanli Hassan Ali?
00:03:48.320 In March 2016, the then 30-year-old burst into a Canadian Forces recruiting office
00:03:54.360 in North Toronto, wielding a large kitchen knife.
00:03:58.020 Ali punched, slashed, and stabbed the corporal at the entrance.
00:04:01.560 He then tried to stab another sergeant who'd fallen to the ground.
00:04:05.480 When Ali was finally subdued,
00:04:07.660 he was charged with nine counts, including attempted murder.
00:04:11.400 But just like Mr. Hussein, there was no Islamo-fascism to be seen here, folks.
00:04:17.480 Even though, according to the Ontario Review Board,
00:04:20.060 Ali continues to express concerns about the Canadian government
00:04:24.280 and its interactions with Muslim countries.
00:04:27.500 And he expressed disappointment that he wasn't killed when he was taken down.
00:04:33.120 But hey, he was probably joking about all that wild and crazy Sharia stuff, eh? 1.00
00:04:38.980 It's simply an outbreak of schizophrenia or something.
00:04:44.480 Oh, and by the way, unlike Hussein, Ali is very much alive,
00:04:48.560 and when he's soon released from the loony bin,
00:04:51.180 the theory is that his best form of therapy for his reintegration into society
00:04:56.920 is to enroll at a course at Hamilton's Mohawk College,
00:05:01.760 even though he still poses a threat to public safety.
00:05:06.000 Hey, Mohawk students, you might want to put a flak jacket 1.00
00:05:09.920 on your back-to-school checklist come September.
00:05:14.500 All of which raises the question,
00:05:17.540 why is it that Islamism and mental illness must be mutually exclusive?
00:05:23.840 What if the likes of Ali and Hussein are mentally unstable
00:05:27.640 and also individuals who willingly bought into the radical Islamist agenda too?
00:05:34.240 But apparently even entertaining that thought
00:05:37.660 is too culturally insensitive
00:05:40.680 when it comes to a certain rapidly growing voting bloc.
00:05:44.620 So no radical Islam to see here, folks. 1.00
00:05:47.660 Move along, move along.
00:05:49.760 And my goodness, that press release issued by the Hussein family 1.00
00:05:53.220 was such a polished document.
00:05:55.680 Little wonder, for it would later be revealed
00:05:58.220 by the Toronto Sun's Anthony Fury
00:06:00.080 that the release was penned by a spin doctor
00:06:03.440 by the name of Mohamed Hashim.
00:06:06.260 Hashim is a full-time organizer
00:06:08.240 for the Toronto and New York Region Labour Council,
00:06:11.080 who also happens to be a driving force
00:06:13.880 behind the National Council of Canadian Muslims.
00:06:17.460 As Fury noted in his column,
00:06:19.580 Hashim is someone who's committed to, quote,
00:06:21.980 framing a new narrative of Muslims in Canada, end quote.
00:06:27.080 Well, that's interesting.
00:06:28.660 What new narrative would that be?
00:06:31.100 And what, pray tell,
00:06:32.860 is Muslim narrative classic, for that matter?
00:06:36.260 Regardless, a gun-toting Muslim 1.00
00:06:38.220 killing innocent people 0.81
00:06:39.760 clearly doesn't fit
00:06:41.480 with whatever narrative Hashim is trying to manufacture.
00:06:45.600 Even more fascinating is how
00:06:47.560 this particular spin doctor
00:06:49.180 was able to snag this freelance gig in the first place.
00:06:53.340 And by that, I mean,
00:06:54.340 I speak of the tangible, nitty-gritty process
00:06:56.860 of Hashim being hired
00:06:58.960 to write the mental illness script.
00:07:01.400 I mean, who reached out to this individual
00:07:03.480 to put that ball in play?
00:07:05.840 Was it someone in law enforcement,
00:07:07.640 or government, or the bureaucracy,
00:07:09.400 or Commissioner Gordon
00:07:11.040 illuminating the bat signal?
00:07:13.120 And if it wasn't law enforcement
00:07:15.040 acting as the go-between,
00:07:16.400 then why were the police
00:07:17.940 so cooperative in ragging the puck
00:07:20.880 when it came to not revealing Faisal's name?
00:07:24.120 I personally asked those questions
00:07:25.960 to anyone who had listened almost a year ago,
00:07:28.100 and all my queries
00:07:29.180 were met with radio silence.
00:07:31.800 Look, I've been in this game for many moons.
00:07:34.160 I can't recall an incident
00:07:35.800 in which, say, some Toronto gangbanger
00:07:39.020 was shot dead in Toronto,
00:07:40.520 and the police put off
00:07:41.740 releasing his name for more than 24 hours
00:07:44.660 so that a spin doctor
00:07:46.800 could concoct a press release
00:07:48.660 for the thug's family.
00:07:50.680 So again, could it be that
00:07:52.220 for the politically correct chorus
00:07:54.140 of the five Ps,
00:07:55.820 the politicians, the prosecutors,
00:07:57.880 the police, the professors,
00:07:59.460 and the press,
00:08:00.800 this business of Muslims
00:08:02.620 committing acts of terrorism
00:08:04.280 kind of goes against the grain.
00:08:06.340 We are continually force-fed
00:08:08.160 that Islam is a religion of peace,
00:08:11.400 even when very often it isn't.
00:08:14.440 Indeed, compare Hussein's acts of carnage 1.00
00:08:17.240 with that of another Toronto maniac
00:08:19.560 who conducted his massacre
00:08:21.440 just three months prior
00:08:23.340 to the Danforth shooting.
00:08:25.340 I speak of Alec Manassian,
00:08:27.260 who killed 10 people
00:08:28.440 and injured 15 others
00:08:29.800 when he went on a deadly rampage
00:08:32.220 down Yonge Street
00:08:33.140 behind the wheel
00:08:33.960 of a rented cargo van.
00:08:35.620 Yet, even though the body count
00:08:38.320 far exceeded
00:08:39.020 what Faisal Hussein manufactured,
00:08:41.980 Manassian's name was released
00:08:43.660 almost as soon as he was arrested.
00:08:46.080 There was certainly no outreach campaign
00:08:48.520 to hire a spin doctor
00:08:50.380 to craft a fancy press release
00:08:52.420 on behalf of the Manassian family.
00:08:55.080 So again, the question rises,
00:08:57.220 why?
00:08:58.220 Is it because the authorities
00:09:00.340 are increasingly hypersensitive
00:09:02.620 in this day and age of M103?
00:09:05.620 That when it comes to stating anything
00:09:07.780 that might come across
00:09:09.440 as giving a PR black eye
00:09:11.720 to the adherents of the religion of peace,
00:09:14.060 that's just wrong?
00:09:15.460 It brings to mind that rainy day last July
00:09:18.180 when my cameraman Efren and I
00:09:19.780 went down to the Danforth
00:09:21.060 near a makeshift shrine for the victims
00:09:23.680 to ask people what they thought
00:09:26.140 of a breaking story reported by CBS
00:09:28.780 that Hussein had visited ISIS websites
00:09:32.400 and had actually pledged his support for ISIS.
00:09:36.660 Yet, merely asking people to weigh in
00:09:39.340 on this breaking news
00:09:40.580 was over-the-top triggering
00:09:42.740 for a woman complaining 0.98
00:09:44.060 to be a high school teacher.
00:09:45.940 So it was that she found it necessary
00:09:48.420 to interrupt an interview I was conducting
00:09:50.780 to give us what turned out
00:09:52.640 to be a verbal whipping
00:09:53.900 just for asking questions
00:09:56.600 she deemed to be insensitive
00:09:59.360 and inappropriate.
00:10:01.060 Check it out.
00:10:02.080 If there is terrorism,
00:10:03.020 why are the authorities
00:10:03.880 so reluctant to call it terrorism?
00:10:07.140 I don't know.
00:10:09.160 I don't know.
00:10:11.060 I don't know.
00:10:12.960 It's just awful.
00:10:13.620 It's just awful.
00:10:16.760 Excuse me?
00:10:17.300 This is a moment for our community.
00:10:19.080 Can you please not descend
00:10:20.220 into racist things right now?
00:10:21.700 Please don't.
00:10:22.100 I'm sorry.
00:10:22.720 What did I say that was racist?
00:10:24.080 Don't come here.
00:10:25.300 The rebel, really?
00:10:26.640 You don't need to be here right now.
00:10:28.520 This is our community.
00:10:29.960 Folks, did I say anything
00:10:30.960 that was racist?
00:10:31.940 Yes, you asked if the man...
00:10:32.980 Well, I'm actually...
00:10:33.640 You asked if the shooter
00:10:34.540 had visited ISIS websites.
00:10:36.640 That is not...
00:10:37.580 No, I said CBS in the U.S.
00:10:39.620 This is not okay.
00:10:40.600 I said CBS in the U.S.
00:10:41.920 is reporting that.
00:10:43.320 The rebel is not okay.
00:10:44.920 That does not represent
00:10:46.060 Canadian values.
00:10:47.220 Why are you so mad, ma'am?
00:10:48.300 This is a news report
00:10:49.800 that broke today.
00:10:50.780 Can I call you back?
00:10:51.840 This is not what we're about.
00:10:52.980 I'm sorry.
00:10:53.500 This is not what Canada is about.
00:10:54.920 Canada is not about racism.
00:10:56.680 I will not stand for it.
00:10:58.140 You're the one
00:10:58.700 that's raising race. 0.98
00:10:59.900 This is a wall...
00:11:00.620 You just asked
00:11:01.420 if the man was a part of ISIS.
00:11:03.920 Ma'am, if you listened...
00:11:05.840 Can I speak?
00:11:06.640 I'll let you speak.
00:11:07.860 Can I clarify?
00:11:09.040 I heard you.
00:11:09.500 CBS in the U.S.
00:11:11.520 is reporting that he had...
00:11:13.240 CBS?
00:11:13.760 That's like reporting on Fox.
00:11:16.200 Fake news, man.
00:11:17.280 Fake...
00:11:17.640 The rebel.
00:11:18.200 Fake news.
00:11:19.020 Fake news.
00:11:19.720 What's real news?
00:11:21.000 People that actually
00:11:21.760 have a media outlet
00:11:22.600 that is real and not racist.
00:11:24.060 Like CBC?
00:11:24.620 CBC, dude.
00:11:25.660 Yes, like CBC.
00:11:26.420 It's better.
00:11:27.140 It's not perfect,
00:11:27.960 but it's definitely better.
00:11:29.020 Now, for anyone
00:11:29.620 who hasn't seen this video,
00:11:30.820 I urge you to view it
00:11:31.860 in its entirety
00:11:32.800 because the idea
00:11:34.900 that this woman
00:11:35.780 is in a position
00:11:36.800 to influence young minds
00:11:38.540 is downright disturbing.
00:11:40.840 In any event,
00:11:41.680 it concludes with this woman 0.97
00:11:43.460 yelling in the rain,
00:11:45.160 contemplating that
00:11:46.180 she's thinking
00:11:46.940 of calling the cops
00:11:48.040 so that we can be taken away
00:11:50.260 for merely asking questions
00:11:52.580 she deemed to be
00:11:54.180 quote,
00:11:54.860 racist crap hate speech
00:11:57.100 end quote.
00:11:58.260 Check it out.
00:11:59.240 On you talking racist crap
00:12:01.340 in front of my community...
00:12:02.800 What would be the charge, ma'am?
00:12:04.420 You're going to call the police?
00:12:05.340 ...about stuff
00:12:06.060 that's completely inaccurate
00:12:07.060 and irrelevant.
00:12:07.840 This is illegal
00:12:08.520 under Canadian law?
00:12:09.740 You know what?
00:12:10.340 Unfortunately not,
00:12:11.160 but if you start spewing
00:12:12.200 racist crap
00:12:13.200 that is hate speech,
00:12:14.160 yes, it is illegal.
00:12:14.980 Can you tell me exactly
00:12:16.460 what I spouted
00:12:17.240 as racist crap hate speech?
00:12:18.780 You're making assumptions
00:12:20.240 about an individual
00:12:21.240 that is now dead
00:12:22.240 that we don't need
00:12:23.440 to be talking about
00:12:24.260 in this respect.
00:12:25.220 No, I said that CBS
00:12:26.520 was reporting an angle
00:12:28.040 and I was getting people
00:12:28.900 to comment.
00:12:29.340 It's CBS!
00:12:29.920 Why are you quoting
00:12:30.620 the United States?
00:12:31.380 We live in Canada.
00:12:33.080 It's a Canadian story.
00:12:34.540 It's a Canadian story.
00:12:35.560 It's our story.
00:12:36.880 It's my community's story.
00:12:38.340 You have no business
00:12:39.480 being here
00:12:39.960 with your racist crap. 0.85
00:12:41.420 Get your racist crap
00:12:42.580 out of my community.
00:12:43.560 Get it out now.
00:12:44.400 I feel to see
00:12:45.220 where I'm racist,
00:12:46.000 but anyways...
00:12:46.780 Read your own stuff online, bro.
00:12:49.120 Seriously.
00:12:49.480 Wake the fuck up.
00:12:50.820 Enjoy your ice cream, guys.
00:12:52.260 You know,
00:12:52.620 isn't it amazing
00:12:53.260 that she's more concerned
00:12:54.580 about the feelings
00:12:55.760 of a deceased terrorist
00:12:57.460 than she is
00:12:58.940 about Hussein's
00:12:59.820 innocent victims
00:13:00.800 given that
00:13:01.600 she was so triggered
00:13:03.240 that we were,
00:13:04.480 quote,
00:13:04.960 making assumptions
00:13:06.060 about an individual
00:13:07.280 that is now dead,
00:13:08.560 end quote,
00:13:09.720 even though we weren't
00:13:10.640 making assumptions at all,
00:13:12.020 but merely asking questions
00:13:13.660 based on a CBS News report.
00:13:16.100 But I think
00:13:17.380 her unhinged attitude 0.70
00:13:18.780 goes to show
00:13:19.680 the hypersensitivity
00:13:21.460 when it comes
00:13:22.220 to all things Islam
00:13:23.640 in certain quarters.
00:13:25.880 Because if the gunman Hussein 0.93
00:13:27.860 wasn't a member
00:13:29.000 of this protected class,
00:13:30.940 if Faisal Hussein's name
00:13:32.600 was Joe Smith
00:13:33.880 and he was a white supremacist,
00:13:36.560 I don't think
00:13:37.700 this teacher
00:13:38.380 would have endured
00:13:39.100 such a meltdown
00:13:40.060 and I don't think
00:13:41.600 a spin doctor
00:13:42.540 would have been hired
00:13:43.860 to massage the message.
00:13:46.540 All of which brings me
00:13:47.800 to Friday's news
00:13:48.800 or non-news
00:13:50.380 as the case may be.
00:13:51.980 Typically,
00:13:52.480 I would start a commentary
00:13:53.780 with the latest news,
00:13:55.220 but that's the thing
00:13:55.920 with the Faisal Hussein case,
00:13:58.260 there is no real news
00:14:00.060 because this investigation
00:14:01.760 proved to be
00:14:02.600 a whole lot of nothing.
00:14:04.560 For example,
00:14:05.460 we were told
00:14:06.140 that Hussein 1.00
00:14:06.860 suffered from mental illness,
00:14:08.240 but we had already
00:14:10.000 been informed of that
00:14:11.140 when that press release
00:14:12.400 was concocted
00:14:13.320 some 11 months ago.
00:14:15.780 Moving on,
00:14:16.880 the biggest question,
00:14:18.200 the thing everybody
00:14:19.500 was waiting to hear
00:14:20.820 was this.
00:14:22.220 What was Hussein's motive?
00:14:24.920 And the answer is,
00:14:26.040 well,
00:14:27.000 the cops have no answer.
00:14:29.120 They have no idea
00:14:30.160 what his motive was
00:14:31.220 despite their
00:14:32.220 intense investigation.
00:14:34.480 Amazing.
00:14:35.860 Indeed,
00:14:36.280 writing in the Toronto Sun,
00:14:37.400 columnist Joe Warmington
00:14:38.840 nailed it.
00:14:40.140 Wrote Warmington,
00:14:41.080 quote,
00:14:41.760 sorry,
00:14:42.320 Juliana Kozis
00:14:43.460 and Reese Fallon.
00:14:45.320 They just don't know
00:14:46.540 why you were murdered
00:14:47.480 by Faisal Hussein
00:14:48.720 on the Danforth
00:14:49.680 on July 22nd,
00:14:51.600 2018.
00:14:53.160 The one question
00:14:53.960 the family
00:14:54.480 and the public
00:14:55.120 wanted to know
00:14:55.840 is why,
00:14:56.620 Chief Mark Saunders
00:14:57.580 said Friday.
00:14:58.980 Although we collected
00:15:00.000 all of the evidence
00:15:01.120 that was available
00:15:02.320 to us
00:15:02.800 for this crime,
00:15:04.320 a crime where
00:15:04.880 the shooter
00:15:05.360 died at the scene,
00:15:06.560 we may never know
00:15:08.300 the answer to why.
00:15:10.320 To add even more
00:15:11.320 insult to injury,
00:15:12.420 Saunders said,
00:15:13.520 there's no evidence
00:15:14.820 Hussein was affiliated
00:15:16.200 with radical ideologies,
00:15:18.760 hate groups,
00:15:19.480 or terrorist organizations,
00:15:21.620 but he did have
00:15:22.880 a mental health history.
00:15:24.820 End quote.
00:15:26.140 Oh,
00:15:27.020 it's an insult
00:15:27.980 to injury,
00:15:28.660 all right.
00:15:29.580 Also of note,
00:15:30.420 the investigation
00:15:31.220 didn't even touch
00:15:32.300 upon a sidebar issue
00:15:34.620 regarding the Danforth
00:15:35.740 shooting case
00:15:36.400 that points to
00:15:37.700 quite an enormous
00:15:38.780 elephant in the room.
00:15:40.540 For example,
00:15:41.080 a global news report
00:15:42.240 from last year
00:15:42.940 revealed that in 2017,
00:15:45.580 Faisal's brother,
00:15:46.400 Fahad,
00:15:47.260 suffered a drug overdose
00:15:48.580 and to this day
00:15:50.200 remains in a coma.
00:15:51.320 But get this folks,
00:15:53.120 in September of 2017,
00:15:55.600 Durham Regional Police
00:15:56.900 executed a search warrant
00:15:58.600 of Fahad's surety,
00:16:00.800 Mazum Ansari.
00:16:02.680 Police seized 33 guns
00:16:05.180 and even more concerning,
00:16:08.180 a staggering 42 kilograms
00:16:10.920 of the deadly drug
00:16:13.040 carfentanil,
00:16:14.520 worth some $13 million.
00:16:16.460 Make no mistake,
00:16:17.720 42 kilos
00:16:19.140 is enough carfentanil
00:16:20.920 to kill thousands
00:16:22.760 of people.
00:16:24.020 And yet,
00:16:25.040 this didn't seem
00:16:25.960 to be a big deal
00:16:26.880 to police
00:16:27.460 when investigating
00:16:28.380 Faisal's death spree? 0.87
00:16:30.780 Really?
00:16:31.740 Also,
00:16:32.440 as I mentioned
00:16:32.940 off the top,
00:16:33.800 Faisal selectively 0.98
00:16:35.280 killed people that night.
00:16:37.060 And here's another
00:16:38.060 uncomfortable truth
00:16:39.060 as the son's
00:16:39.740 Warmington notes
00:16:40.480 in his superb story,
00:16:42.080 Hussein's one act 0.53
00:16:43.400 of compassion
00:16:44.100 on that terrible evening
00:16:45.540 was sparing the life
00:16:47.240 of Jaspel Singh,
00:16:49.300 who at one point
00:16:50.360 was a point-blank
00:16:51.980 sitting duck target
00:16:53.400 for Hussein,
00:16:55.220 but instead of
00:16:56.080 executing Singh,
00:16:57.580 Hussein told him,
00:16:58.840 quote,
00:16:59.460 don't worry,
00:17:00.580 I'm not going to
00:17:01.660 shoot you, 0.94
00:17:02.700 end quote.
00:17:03.980 But why?
00:17:05.240 This is something
00:17:06.220 that no doubt
00:17:07.160 really drives
00:17:08.020 the progressives'
00:17:09.460 cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs,
00:17:10.740 I should think.
00:17:11.740 Also glossed over
00:17:13.220 was the allegation
00:17:14.580 that Hussein 1.00
00:17:15.340 was reportedly
00:17:16.520 in possession
00:17:17.200 of several
00:17:18.420 conspiracy theory DVDs
00:17:20.380 on the topics
00:17:21.400 of 9-11
00:17:22.120 and U.S. wars
00:17:23.580 in Iraq
00:17:24.300 and Afghanistan.
00:17:26.300 But what the heck,
00:17:27.500 despite all this,
00:17:28.420 let's just stay
00:17:29.120 with the narrative
00:17:29.680 that Faisal Hussein
00:17:31.060 was merely
00:17:31.560 a troubled kid
00:17:32.940 who struggled
00:17:34.620 with mental illness
00:17:35.560 and had a really
00:17:36.680 bad day.
00:17:38.040 Yeah,
00:17:38.380 that's the ticket.
00:17:39.780 But tell me,
00:17:40.620 are you buying
00:17:41.700 what they're selling,
00:17:43.020 folks?
00:17:43.900 I'm not.
00:17:45.100 Indeed,
00:17:45.500 I predicted
00:17:46.000 almost a year ago
00:17:47.020 that we'd never
00:17:48.120 get to know
00:17:48.700 the truth
00:17:49.280 about the Danforth
00:17:50.660 shooting.
00:17:51.940 And thanks to
00:17:52.600 the Friday release
00:17:53.680 of the Toronto
00:17:54.420 police investigation,
00:17:56.140 I have been,
00:17:57.200 unfortunately,
00:17:58.720 proven right.
00:18:00.160 Indeed,
00:18:00.680 thanks to the virus
00:18:01.820 that is political
00:18:02.600 correctness,
00:18:04.000 could it be
00:18:04.440 the real story
00:18:05.340 is being concealed
00:18:06.740 right before
00:18:07.700 our collective eyes?
00:18:09.760 Because apparently,
00:18:11.080 for the powers that be
00:18:12.200 who managed
00:18:13.300 the radical Islam file,
00:18:15.360 to paraphrase
00:18:16.140 Jack Nicholson's
00:18:17.140 famous line
00:18:17.860 in A Few Good Men,
00:18:19.640 we just can't
00:18:20.800 handle the truth,
00:18:22.220 so the truth
00:18:23.500 must be sanitized,
00:18:25.780 you know,
00:18:26.620 for our own
00:18:27.760 protection.
00:18:29.380 Gee,
00:18:29.660 it makes you wonder
00:18:30.440 if the Toronto
00:18:31.200 police service
00:18:32.000 also hired
00:18:32.700 that Islamic 0.99
00:18:33.360 spin doctor,
00:18:34.260 Mohammed Hashim,
00:18:35.720 to vet their report
00:18:36.960 prior to releasing it.
00:18:38.800 You know,
00:18:39.240 to make absolutely
00:18:40.780 certain things
00:18:41.700 are squeaky clean
00:18:42.780 and that the right
00:18:44.200 narrative is being
00:18:45.340 maintained when it
00:18:46.800 comes to the
00:18:47.740 religion of peace.
00:18:49.060 I mean,
00:18:49.920 killing and maiming
00:18:50.920 innocent Canadians,
00:18:52.340 that's bad enough,
00:18:53.340 but giving Islam 0.72
00:18:54.700 a bad rap?
00:18:56.340 For our progressive
00:18:57.660 protectors,
00:18:58.940 that would truly be
00:19:00.860 the most heinous
00:19:02.680 crime of all.
00:19:03.960 Well folks,
00:19:18.760 you may recall
00:19:19.300 that earlier this
00:19:20.240 month,
00:19:20.640 street preacher
00:19:21.240 David Lynn
00:19:21.860 of the Christ
00:19:22.500 Forgiveness Ministry
00:19:23.500 was arrested
00:19:24.220 when he began
00:19:25.260 preaching
00:19:25.700 in Toronto's
00:19:27.000 gay village. 0.97
00:19:28.260 Some members
00:19:28.820 of the LGBT
00:19:29.700 community
00:19:30.500 took exception
00:19:31.460 to Lynn's
00:19:32.520 street corner
00:19:33.100 sermon,
00:19:33.540 and shortly
00:19:34.420 after that,
00:19:35.260 Lynn was arrested
00:19:36.220 and charged
00:19:37.360 with disturbing
00:19:38.120 the peace.
00:19:39.420 Lynn was also
00:19:40.320 ordered to avoid
00:19:41.220 preaching anywhere
00:19:42.000 in the gay village
00:19:42.840 during pride celebrations,
00:19:44.940 even though a
00:19:45.720 Toronto police
00:19:46.480 spokesman said
00:19:47.460 that what Lynn
00:19:48.640 had preached
00:19:49.460 was not hate speech.
00:19:52.080 Well,
00:19:52.460 on Friday,
00:19:53.220 it was deja vu
00:19:54.420 all over again.
00:19:55.540 Another preacher,
00:19:56.480 Doré Love,
00:19:57.500 went to the same
00:19:58.260 area of Toronto
00:19:58.960 and just like Lynn,
00:20:00.100 he was confronted
00:20:01.320 by people
00:20:02.140 who did not
00:20:03.300 want him
00:20:04.080 to be there
00:20:04.820 even though
00:20:05.740 he was in
00:20:06.260 a public place.
00:20:07.820 And again,
00:20:08.420 just like Lynn,
00:20:09.540 the police
00:20:10.040 responded to
00:20:10.760 the commotion,
00:20:11.860 charging Love
00:20:12.580 with,
00:20:13.000 you guessed it,
00:20:14.560 disturbing the peace
00:20:15.840 just for,
00:20:17.240 what,
00:20:17.840 preaching the gospel?
00:20:19.200 Well,
00:20:19.800 apparently,
00:20:20.500 that's how we roll
00:20:21.540 these days
00:20:22.120 when it comes
00:20:22.720 to free speech.
00:20:24.020 Apparently,
00:20:24.660 some people think
00:20:25.500 they have the right
00:20:26.300 not to be offended,
00:20:27.700 and for whatever
00:20:28.900 reason,
00:20:29.880 law enforcement
00:20:30.580 is catering
00:20:31.560 to the whims
00:20:32.520 of these people.
00:20:34.140 And joining me now
00:20:35.060 right here in studio
00:20:36.000 is Doré Love.
00:20:37.200 Doré,
00:20:37.660 welcome to the
00:20:38.360 Ezra Levent Show.
00:20:39.320 Thanks for having me.
00:20:40.200 A pleasure.
00:20:40.960 Now, Doré,
00:20:41.620 before we get more
00:20:43.240 into the meat and potatoes
00:20:44.180 of this,
00:20:45.160 take us back
00:20:46.280 to Friday
00:20:47.600 when you went
00:20:48.580 to the
00:20:49.600 church
00:20:51.220 and Carleton
00:20:52.340 area of the city
00:20:53.300 and with the intent
00:20:55.780 to preach a sermon.
00:20:56.880 what exactly
00:20:58.600 happened,
00:20:59.500 and probably
00:21:00.700 more importantly,
00:21:01.640 given the context
00:21:02.380 of this story,
00:21:03.500 what exactly
00:21:04.580 did you say?
00:21:06.080 Well,
00:21:06.520 what happened was
00:21:07.240 we were going,
00:21:08.240 we decided to,
00:21:09.460 well,
00:21:09.680 actually,
00:21:10.040 this week,
00:21:10.500 we're actually going
00:21:11.100 around a lot of places
00:21:11.980 preaching.
00:21:13.000 Because,
00:21:13.320 so Thursdays and Saturdays
00:21:14.680 were usually downtown,
00:21:15.460 but every other week
00:21:16.500 we go all these
00:21:17.440 different places.
00:21:17.960 So we decided
00:21:18.400 to go to Carleton
00:21:19.020 and church that day.
00:21:20.760 And the festivities
00:21:22.220 was actually
00:21:22.920 a little bit away,
00:21:24.000 so we decided
00:21:24.600 to kind of
00:21:25.320 not to be right
00:21:26.660 in the middle
00:21:27.160 of their festivities.
00:21:27.920 We kind of like
00:21:28.500 set up a little bit
00:21:29.760 down the street.
00:21:30.660 And we just
00:21:31.080 started preaching.
00:21:31.640 We started preaching
00:21:32.120 the love of God,
00:21:32.980 how God loves everyone,
00:21:34.000 how everyone
00:21:34.340 could be redeemed,
00:21:35.120 how there's hope
00:21:35.540 for everyone.
00:21:36.720 And then my kind
00:21:38.160 of preaching style
00:21:38.940 is I like to engage
00:21:39.760 with the public.
00:21:40.400 So as I preach,
00:21:41.640 if someone has a question,
00:21:42.700 I will stop preaching
00:21:43.420 and I'll start
00:21:44.040 answering the questions.
00:21:45.500 And just to be
00:21:46.600 100% clear,
00:21:48.160 there was no,
00:21:49.320 you know,
00:21:49.900 fire and brimstone
00:21:51.100 kind of,
00:21:51.540 like, you know,
00:21:52.060 you're going to burn
00:21:52.760 in hell
00:21:53.200 for your sexual orientation.
00:21:54.760 Nothing like that.
00:21:55.400 You were just
00:21:56.220 preaching the gospel.
00:21:57.480 Absolutely,
00:21:57.780 nothing like that.
00:21:58.240 If you go to my
00:21:59.180 YouTube channel,
00:22:00.040 Dory Love,
00:22:00.600 you can see that
00:22:01.340 my message is consistent
00:22:02.320 and it's a message
00:22:04.080 of love,
00:22:04.640 it's a message of hope
00:22:05.360 and I always take
00:22:06.140 a calm,
00:22:07.040 passionate,
00:22:08.820 you know,
00:22:09.240 patient approach
00:22:09.900 because I kind of,
00:22:11.140 I had a lesbian 0.98
00:22:11.680 in my family.
00:22:12.340 My sister was lesbian 1.00
00:22:13.340 for a long time.
00:22:13.900 I have Muslim in-laws.
00:22:15.420 So I have people
00:22:15.980 from all different
00:22:16.560 walks of life
00:22:17.060 in my family.
00:22:17.580 So I have a compassion,
00:22:18.600 understanding,
00:22:19.200 and empathy for them.
00:22:20.260 So I don't take
00:22:21.060 that approach.
00:22:21.440 I don't take
00:22:21.760 the Helen Brinstein
00:22:22.320 approach.
00:22:22.620 I believe you can
00:22:23.400 catch more flies
00:22:24.020 with sugar
00:22:24.500 than you do
00:22:25.440 with doo-doo,
00:22:25.940 you know?
00:22:26.540 Gotcha.
00:22:27.340 And without further ado,
00:22:28.880 we have a clip,
00:22:30.100 ladies and gentlemen,
00:22:30.920 of what happened
00:22:31.800 and the eventual
00:22:34.020 arrival of the
00:22:35.720 boys in blue.
00:22:36.360 Let's check it out.
00:22:36.980 This is a crime.
00:22:38.680 This is a huge
00:22:39.500 joke.
00:22:42.760 And so the Christians 0.98
00:22:44.420 are going to stay
00:22:46.100 home and pray.
00:22:53.300 So once again,
00:22:54.260 you're feeling convicted
00:22:55.040 with a fourth mother.
00:22:56.520 You're feeling convicted
00:22:57.440 of your sins.
00:22:58.180 That's the only thing.
00:23:00.020 And so once again,
00:23:01.360 when I came out the world
00:23:02.300 and gave this one
00:23:03.080 and only son,
00:23:04.060 I want to believe
00:23:05.060 in the past
00:23:05.920 that will never
00:23:06.360 last in life.
00:23:07.700 The Bible says that
00:23:08.600 God didn't come into 0.95
00:23:09.420 the world to defend
00:23:10.240 the world,
00:23:11.020 but through him.
00:23:12.660 Only silencing him.
00:23:15.080 They're arresting him.
00:23:16.440 They're arresting him.
00:23:18.440 Well, I have to say,
00:23:32.000 Dorey, it reminds me
00:23:34.100 of the climatic scene
00:23:35.640 of Horton Hears a Who.
00:23:37.400 You know, all those people
00:23:38.820 with noisemakers
00:23:39.900 and various musical instruments
00:23:43.740 and what have you.
00:23:44.220 Obviously trying to drown you out.
00:23:45.940 Cries of go home,
00:23:49.020 get lost. 0.65
00:23:50.280 We're not into
00:23:51.540 what you're preaching.
00:23:53.380 So needless to say,
00:23:55.240 it was a pretty hostile crowd.
00:23:58.200 And yet the police came
00:24:01.940 to charge and take you away.
00:24:04.440 Yes.
00:24:04.660 And if you look at the video,
00:24:05.620 the last thing that I'm saying
00:24:06.680 is Jesus didn't come
00:24:08.640 into the world
00:24:09.420 to condemn the world.
00:24:10.620 And at that moment,
00:24:11.440 that's when they grabbed me
00:24:12.480 and put me in handcuffs.
00:24:13.880 And that's funny
00:24:14.520 because, you know,
00:24:15.100 usually people say,
00:24:16.020 don't condemn us,
00:24:17.060 don't judge us.
00:24:18.080 And if I finished,
00:24:19.380 if they would have
00:24:19.780 let me finish my sentence,
00:24:20.740 it goes,
00:24:21.060 Jesus didn't come into the world
00:24:22.020 to contend the world,
00:24:22.720 but through him,
00:24:23.520 the world would have life
00:24:24.460 and have it more abundantly.
00:24:26.240 And so that's when the,
00:24:27.100 there was actually a cop there before.
00:24:28.520 And when they started whistling
00:24:29.300 in my ear
00:24:29.940 and doing a whole bunch of things,
00:24:30.880 I looked at them
00:24:31.440 and I was like,
00:24:32.420 yeah, do you think
00:24:33.100 this is like legal?
00:24:33.920 Aren't they like,
00:24:34.440 you know,
00:24:34.980 preaching my personal space
00:24:36.160 or something?
00:24:36.500 Because she actually had a whistle 1.00
00:24:37.540 and it was right in my ear
00:24:38.380 and my ear started ringing.
00:24:39.940 And he just gave me
00:24:43.760 but then,
00:24:44.720 yeah,
00:24:44.940 as soon as I said
00:24:45.420 Jesus didn't come into the world
00:24:46.380 to condemn the world,
00:24:47.120 he grabbed my mic,
00:24:48.400 he grabbed my arm
00:24:49.580 and he twisted it behind my back
00:24:51.340 like he was angry.
00:24:52.660 And I was like,
00:24:53.460 yo, bro,
00:24:54.240 I'm not resisting.
00:24:54.920 I'm a peaceful person.
00:24:55.740 Like, if you want me,
00:24:56.640 and then he just
00:24:57.820 didn't say anything,
00:24:58.620 just put the one
00:24:59.980 on this wrist,
00:25:01.380 very tight,
00:25:02.140 and then just put my hands
00:25:03.280 behind my back,
00:25:03.980 grabbed my microphone.
00:25:05.000 I thought he was going
00:25:05.640 to smash it on the ground,
00:25:06.780 but he just grabbed it
00:25:07.480 and I guess he put it down
00:25:08.340 and then they just like
00:25:09.460 whisked me away.
00:25:10.920 And Dory,
00:25:11.660 it's notable,
00:25:12.960 as you said earlier,
00:25:14.200 you set up a good block away
00:25:15.860 from the main festivities.
00:25:18.040 People came to you,
00:25:19.560 I understand.
00:25:20.220 It wasn't you
00:25:20.840 crashing a party
00:25:22.040 and, you know,
00:25:23.200 that one woman, 0.61
00:25:24.100 you know,
00:25:24.480 constantly saying,
00:25:25.300 we're not into
00:25:25.860 what you're preaching.
00:25:26.780 Well, to me,
00:25:28.280 if that's the case,
00:25:29.000 lady,
00:25:29.540 keep walking.
00:25:30.580 I mean, like,
00:25:31.180 you don't live on this corner,
00:25:33.060 I presume.
00:25:33.840 So,
00:25:34.520 I'm trying to understand
00:25:36.480 if they don't like the message,
00:25:38.940 why not just walk away
00:25:40.200 from the messenger
00:25:40.900 as opposed to
00:25:41.960 getting law enforcement involved
00:25:43.500 to actually putting
00:25:44.640 the messenger into jail?
00:25:46.180 Well, that's the same thing
00:25:46.760 I said, too.
00:25:47.240 So, the theme,
00:25:48.360 a lot of the back and forth
00:25:49.480 was, you know,
00:25:50.680 we don't want you here.
00:25:51.820 Well, I'm like,
00:25:52.200 well, I'm not here for you.
00:25:52.900 I'm here for the one person
00:25:53.680 that does want me here.
00:25:54.820 And I even pointed out
00:25:56.480 that their festivities
00:25:58.280 was further up the road.
00:25:59.920 So, I said,
00:26:00.380 look,
00:26:00.560 if you want to enjoy
00:26:01.200 your pride
00:26:02.280 or your march,
00:26:02.960 just continue enjoying it
00:26:04.000 up the road.
00:26:04.360 That's why I set up
00:26:04.980 that down here.
00:26:05.960 The fact that you came here,
00:26:07.700 maybe it's because
00:26:08.340 I have the truth
00:26:08.920 and maybe because
00:26:09.620 you know that I have the truth
00:26:10.780 you want to hear it.
00:26:11.740 And it kind of seems like,
00:26:12.700 you know,
00:26:12.940 they want people to
00:26:14.440 not only tolerate
00:26:16.880 but accept
00:26:17.660 and affirm what they do
00:26:19.120 even at the expense
00:26:20.760 of going against
00:26:21.640 my own convictions.
00:26:22.440 And that's what it seems like.
00:26:23.280 They come there,
00:26:23.760 some people come there
00:26:24.540 and they might want to listen,
00:26:25.640 but other people come there
00:26:26.560 to say,
00:26:26.980 no,
00:26:27.480 you're wrong
00:26:28.140 if you don't see things my way.
00:26:29.440 You're a bigot.
00:26:30.060 You're a sociopath.
00:26:31.540 You're all these different things.
00:26:32.320 So I think really what it is
00:26:33.520 is they're coming
00:26:35.460 to make me affirm
00:26:36.620 who they are
00:26:37.320 rather than letting me
00:26:38.100 be who I am.
00:26:38.900 Yeah.
00:26:39.300 And I think, Dory,
00:26:40.620 this is the scary thing
00:26:41.880 about freedom of speech
00:26:43.160 today in Canada
00:26:44.400 is the fact that
00:26:45.980 it's not about
00:26:47.520 getting engaged
00:26:48.620 in a feisty debate anymore.
00:26:50.660 It's about certain people
00:26:52.720 saying,
00:26:53.740 because you have
00:26:54.900 a differing opinion,
00:26:56.540 you have to be silenced.
00:26:58.440 Yes.
00:26:58.620 You have to be shut down.
00:27:00.440 The liberals
00:27:01.080 and the progressives
00:27:02.260 they're all about
00:27:04.060 diversity is our strength.
00:27:05.640 But it seems to me
00:27:06.600 that when it comes
00:27:07.600 to diversity of opinions,
00:27:09.680 you must march
00:27:10.940 in a lockstep
00:27:12.140 in one direction.
00:27:13.140 And if you don't,
00:27:14.240 we're going to silence you.
00:27:15.620 Yeah.
00:27:15.800 It seems like that's
00:27:16.660 where they draw the line.
00:27:17.420 They draw the line.
00:27:18.120 It's not even,
00:27:18.700 it's a fake free speech.
00:27:20.100 It's a,
00:27:20.700 you're free to say
00:27:21.640 what you want to say
00:27:22.280 if you agree with me.
00:27:23.480 Yeah.
00:27:23.760 It's not free at all.
00:27:25.940 And you know,
00:27:26.560 Dory,
00:27:26.820 I'd be remiss
00:27:27.620 in not telling our audience
00:27:28.620 that this is the first time
00:27:29.940 we met.
00:27:30.400 We met,
00:27:30.720 I think it was more
00:27:31.540 than two years ago.
00:27:33.520 We were told
00:27:34.620 that you were again
00:27:35.940 on public property
00:27:36.920 in the Yonge Dundas area
00:27:38.600 in Toronto's downtown core
00:27:41.220 outside the Eton Centre.
00:27:43.440 And folks,
00:27:44.660 check out this footage.
00:27:45.640 It wasn't law enforcement,
00:27:46.980 but for some reason
00:27:48.120 an Eton Centre security guard
00:27:50.780 decided he was going
00:27:53.100 to shut down Dory Love
00:27:55.960 even though Dory wasn't
00:27:57.820 on Cadillac Fairview property.
00:27:59.740 Check it out.
00:28:02.480 So actually,
00:28:03.380 what you're saying
00:28:03.900 is the Quran is full of hate. 0.99
00:28:05.560 But why are you arguing
00:28:06.780 about the Quran?
00:28:07.640 You're here to...
00:28:08.160 Amen.
00:28:08.840 You're here to...
00:28:09.560 Amen.
00:28:10.360 Why are you even talking
00:28:11.300 about the Quran?
00:28:11.720 No, hold on.
00:28:12.100 Let me, let me talk.
00:28:12.700 No, okay, hold on.
00:28:13.600 I don't got to let you talk.
00:28:14.400 What do you want to say?
00:28:15.200 You were...
00:28:15.560 Get out of here.
00:28:16.500 Hey.
00:28:17.100 No, calm down.
00:28:18.040 Calm down.
00:28:18.520 First of all,
00:28:19.460 go ahead, call him.
00:28:20.540 Yes, call him
00:28:21.080 because I have every...
00:28:21.800 Now, what...
00:28:24.500 First of all,
00:28:25.680 by him even laying a hand on you
00:28:27.680 is crossing the line entirely
00:28:30.560 in terms of assault.
00:28:31.860 I know he didn't hurt you
00:28:32.720 and, you know,
00:28:33.420 you would never claim
00:28:34.160 you were hurt by him,
00:28:35.020 but he shouldn't be manhandling you
00:28:37.080 and your audio equipment.
00:28:39.480 I remember at the time
00:28:40.320 we reached out
00:28:41.180 to the Eton Centre
00:28:43.280 public affairs people
00:28:44.360 and they said
00:28:45.000 that was inappropriate.
00:28:47.560 They never followed up
00:28:49.380 with what his disciplinary action is.
00:28:52.140 They'd probably hide behind
00:28:53.260 private security
00:28:56.220 and, you know,
00:28:56.980 this sort of thing.
00:28:58.860 What was his agenda
00:29:00.540 on that evening, Dorey,
00:29:02.500 in trying to shut you down?
00:29:03.660 Well, once again,
00:29:04.580 if you see the video,
00:29:05.440 another peaceful back and forth.
00:29:07.980 That's my style.
00:29:08.840 I like to preach,
00:29:09.480 but when you speak,
00:29:10.120 I'll go back and forth.
00:29:11.240 So a young Muslim lady 1.00
00:29:12.320 in the crowd
00:29:12.800 was just asking me
00:29:13.680 about the Quran
00:29:14.500 in comparison to the Bible.
00:29:16.140 And that's all I was doing
00:29:17.080 was answering the question,
00:29:18.500 not in my own opinion,
00:29:19.580 actually going to the text,
00:29:20.700 actually reading the text.
00:29:21.840 And I read some unfavorable texts,
00:29:23.940 if you want to call them
00:29:24.600 unfavorable,
00:29:25.040 in the Quran,
00:29:25.640 but it's in there.
00:29:26.960 And people were starting to say,
00:29:28.900 well, you know,
00:29:29.200 that's hateful.
00:29:29.800 And I was agreeing with them.
00:29:30.720 I'm like, well,
00:29:31.220 if you believe that,
00:29:32.420 if I'm reading the Quran
00:29:33.780 and you believe this is hateful,
00:29:35.020 well, you're saying
00:29:35.760 the Quran is hateful. 1.00
00:29:36.660 And I think that's what
00:29:37.520 triggered the security guard,
00:29:38.700 I'm assuming he was Muslim,
00:29:40.080 to come all the way
00:29:41.140 from the Eton Centre,
00:29:42.340 all the way to where
00:29:43.160 I was preaching,
00:29:44.300 to try to, once again,
00:29:45.660 stifle a minister,
00:29:46.800 which is illegal,
00:29:47.760 stifling a minister
00:29:48.480 in the process of his duties.
00:29:50.100 And I think that's
00:29:51.100 what triggered him.
00:29:51.620 I think that, you know,
00:29:52.820 there's a saying
00:29:53.960 that's saying that
00:29:54.500 in a time of,
00:29:56.720 or in a time of lies,
00:29:58.440 or no,
00:29:58.720 in a time of universal lies,
00:30:00.040 telling the truth
00:30:00.740 is revolutionary.
00:30:02.740 So I think,
00:30:03.520 oh, the truth
00:30:03.960 just triggered these people,
00:30:04.860 you know?
00:30:05.900 It's uncanny
00:30:06.780 because I think
00:30:07.580 even a police officer
00:30:08.920 to have tried
00:30:09.940 to shut you down
00:30:10.700 like he did
00:30:11.440 would have been
00:30:11.900 over the line.
00:30:12.680 But certainly
00:30:13.080 for a private security guard,
00:30:15.460 I mean,
00:30:15.980 that is completely
00:30:17.280 out of his lane.
00:30:18.900 And by the way,
00:30:20.040 we can't let it be said,
00:30:22.500 you know,
00:30:22.800 speaking of Islam
00:30:24.220 and speaking of
00:30:25.340 preaching hate,
00:30:26.380 you know,
00:30:26.800 this has been
00:30:27.400 quite a month.
00:30:28.160 I mean,
00:30:28.660 we had David Lynn
00:30:30.200 arrested in the gay village.
00:30:32.900 We had,
00:30:33.960 when the Raptors
00:30:34.880 were in the playoffs,
00:30:35.700 we had some drunken Lugan.
00:30:37.340 He came out
00:30:37.880 and he said
00:30:38.260 some really vulgar thing
00:30:39.920 to the reporter,
00:30:41.720 you know,
00:30:42.000 I want to blank you
00:30:43.180 right in the blank.
00:30:44.080 It's an off-repeated phrase.
00:30:46.400 It wasn't funny
00:30:46.960 the first time
00:30:47.560 it was said.
00:30:48.320 It's not funny
00:30:49.020 the millionth time
00:30:49.740 it's said.
00:30:50.360 Not at all.
00:30:50.800 It was rude.
00:30:51.600 It was vulgar.
00:30:52.260 But certainly,
00:30:53.100 you know,
00:30:53.460 it doesn't meet
00:30:54.560 the benchmark of hate.
00:30:55.500 And certainly,
00:30:56.560 all the talk radio
00:30:58.220 of the day
00:30:58.760 was all about,
00:31:00.020 we've got to find this guy.
00:31:01.160 His image is in high def.
00:31:02.880 Oh, boy,
00:31:03.580 I'd love to be his boss
00:31:04.640 and fire him 0.96
00:31:05.500 for being that way.
00:31:06.640 Okay.
00:31:07.600 And,
00:31:08.280 but the trifecta was,
00:31:10.400 we went down
00:31:11.320 to cover the Al-Quds rally.
00:31:14.280 And if you want to
00:31:15.660 get a barometer
00:31:16.520 for hate speech
00:31:17.620 in the city,
00:31:18.280 please, folks,
00:31:19.240 you know,
00:31:19.420 go down to Al-Quds 1.00
00:31:20.720 in June.
00:31:22.020 And what was especially
00:31:24.040 eye-opening,
00:31:25.600 Dore,
00:31:26.060 was one individual
00:31:27.360 that we spoke about
00:31:28.460 that actually openly
00:31:30.660 expressed his desire
00:31:33.560 for Sharia law
00:31:35.500 and that under Sharia law,
00:31:37.980 it's,
00:31:38.860 hey,
00:31:39.020 no hard feelings,
00:31:39.960 but we're going to have
00:31:40.980 to execute gay people. 0.98
00:31:42.840 Let's check out that clip.
00:31:45.820 In Gaza.
00:31:46.800 We executed according
00:31:48.000 to Islamic law.
00:31:49.340 Islam doesn't endorse gayism.
00:31:51.460 Islam doesn't endorse homosexuality.
00:31:53.300 Okay,
00:31:53.820 so would you like to see
00:31:54.660 Sharia law in Canada
00:31:55.920 replace Canadian law?
00:31:57.820 At some point,
00:31:58.500 it will.
00:31:59.260 You know,
00:31:59.500 because we have families,
00:32:01.320 we are making babies.
00:32:02.480 You're not.
00:32:03.680 Your population
00:32:04.880 is going down the slump.
00:32:06.460 That's right.
00:32:06.780 Right?
00:32:07.360 By 2016,
00:32:08.700 Muslims will be 1.00
00:32:09.600 the biggest religious group
00:32:11.220 the world over.
00:32:12.320 What are you going to do then?
00:32:13.840 Actually,
00:32:14.280 do you want to oppose Sharia 0.93
00:32:15.020 even then?
00:32:16.660 Wow,
00:32:17.220 it never fails
00:32:18.720 to send some chills
00:32:19.620 up my spine
00:32:20.260 when I hear that individual.
00:32:21.420 I'm kind of kicking myself, Dore.
00:32:22.620 It came out later
00:32:23.360 in our interview.
00:32:24.020 He actually has children.
00:32:25.560 I wish I had thought
00:32:26.820 of asking him
00:32:27.940 if one of his kids
00:32:29.720 were to come out
00:32:30.460 of the closet,
00:32:31.080 so to speak,
00:32:31.740 and proclaim
00:32:32.420 that they were gay. 0.74
00:32:33.600 Would his unconditional love
00:32:35.220 as a father
00:32:35.880 eclipses desire
00:32:37.440 for Sharia law
00:32:38.400 and the gay killing proviso.
00:32:42.240 To me,
00:32:43.100 this almost sounds
00:32:43.960 like the kind of character
00:32:45.200 that might subscribe
00:32:46.320 to the concept
00:32:47.800 of honor killing,
00:32:48.880 but that's besides the point.
00:32:50.480 I think the point is
00:32:51.560 this video
00:32:53.000 got several hundred thousand views.
00:32:55.240 It got retweeted
00:32:56.180 around the world,
00:32:57.780 and yet,
00:32:59.020 in terms of the local media,
00:33:01.160 in terms of the local government,
00:33:03.240 in terms of local law enforcement,
00:33:05.800 absolutely nothing.
00:33:08.300 And I'm just trying to,
00:33:10.460 can you connect the dots
00:33:11.580 from here,
00:33:12.080 for me here, Dore,
00:33:13.260 in terms of
00:33:14.040 why is it
00:33:15.640 that someone being rude
00:33:17.740 at a Raptors game,
00:33:19.040 someone preaching the gospel
00:33:20.500 that somebody else
00:33:21.620 doesn't want to hear,
00:33:22.800 these are very important crimes
00:33:25.040 that must be punished,
00:33:26.780 and someone advocating
00:33:28.160 for the death of a person
00:33:30.180 based on their sexual orientation,
00:33:32.180 it's a,
00:33:32.660 oh well,
00:33:33.620 hey,
00:33:33.820 what can you do?
00:33:35.180 You know,
00:33:35.560 it's complicated.
00:33:37.620 It seems like,
00:33:38.920 I think about this all the time,
00:33:40.600 it seems like maybe
00:33:41.620 because we're setting
00:33:42.680 the laws aside
00:33:43.760 for overcorrection,
00:33:45.160 maybe because of 9-11,
00:33:47.080 or since 9-11,
00:33:47.980 it seems like Muslims 0.92
00:33:48.640 became sympathetic figures.
00:33:50.000 It seems like
00:33:50.560 now because,
00:33:51.780 you know,
00:33:52.000 they got this whole
00:33:52.700 love is love movement,
00:33:53.920 or they try to,
00:33:54.940 you know,
00:33:56.260 propagate this phony narrative
00:33:57.480 that homosexuals 1.00
00:33:58.800 are being persecuted
00:33:59.500 everywhere,
00:33:59.880 everywhere.
00:34:00.940 So it just seems like
00:34:01.660 the public has this,
00:34:02.740 you know,
00:34:03.240 they've made these people
00:34:04.400 in their sympathetic figures,
00:34:05.360 no matter what their ideology is,
00:34:06.660 no matter how they act,
00:34:07.500 no matter,
00:34:08.320 no matter to the,
00:34:09.620 even all the evidence
00:34:10.620 to the contrary,
00:34:11.680 they have made them
00:34:12.280 simple,
00:34:12.980 sympathetic figures,
00:34:13.740 and I think there's
00:34:14.380 like an overcorrection
00:34:15.600 going on.
00:34:15.980 I don't want to think
00:34:16.840 it's something nefarious,
00:34:18.060 but I talked to the police officer
00:34:19.620 that,
00:34:20.060 not the police officers
00:34:21.460 that arrested me,
00:34:21.860 but I talked to a few police officers,
00:34:23.580 and they're like,
00:34:24.180 a lot of them
00:34:24.680 really support what we do,
00:34:25.800 and they say,
00:34:26.260 you know what,
00:34:26.820 we wish,
00:34:27.440 like they'll say,
00:34:27.940 we wish you had free speech,
00:34:29.300 we wish that we could do this,
00:34:30.680 but we have orders
00:34:32.140 to act a certain way
00:34:34.260 towards certain people
00:34:35.480 when they're in certain situations.
00:34:37.280 And so it's like,
00:34:37.960 so these,
00:34:38.980 even though I don't want
00:34:39.660 to think it's something
00:34:40.220 nefarious,
00:34:40.840 if the police
00:34:42.060 only can do
00:34:43.100 what they're directed to do,
00:34:44.060 their hands are tied.
00:34:45.320 So it's like,
00:34:45.840 so someone higher up,
00:34:47.240 someone,
00:34:47.680 you know,
00:34:48.420 at a higher pay grade
00:34:50.100 is sending these orders
00:34:51.560 out there,
00:34:51.980 and for some reason,
00:34:52.900 over-correction,
00:34:54.140 maybe an agendic reason,
00:34:56.060 that they're targeting
00:34:57.460 specific groups,
00:34:59.500 and actually elevating
00:35:02.100 another ideology
00:35:03.440 over another set of beliefs.
00:35:06.000 You know,
00:35:06.300 I think you're right about that,
00:35:07.960 and I think,
00:35:08.660 you know,
00:35:10.060 someone of the Islamic faith
00:35:11.840 acting out violently,
00:35:13.500 saying something
00:35:14.460 that's truly repugnant,
00:35:16.320 it doesn't fit
00:35:17.780 into the media narrative
00:35:19.280 that Islam 0.98
00:35:20.060 is a religion of peace,
00:35:21.320 and this whole idea
00:35:22.420 of victim narrative
00:35:25.720 that they have as well.
00:35:27.160 But I want to,
00:35:27.920 you raise a very fascinating point,
00:35:29.840 too,
00:35:30.140 in terms of over-correction,
00:35:32.060 and I want to talk about
00:35:32.780 over-correction
00:35:33.400 on the behalf
00:35:33.960 of law enforcement.
00:35:35.040 Earlier this month,
00:35:36.280 I had in Sue Ann Levy,
00:35:38.580 the superb columnist
00:35:39.940 with the Toronto Sun,
00:35:41.000 who, by the way,
00:35:42.100 is lesbian herself,
00:35:44.120 and her theory,
00:35:45.080 and I subscribe to it
00:35:46.180 100%, Dore,
00:35:47.280 is that since
00:35:49.420 the Bruce MacArthur
00:35:50.980 serial killing debacle
00:35:53.080 in the gay village,
00:35:54.600 and, you know,
00:35:55.620 the allegations are
00:35:56.540 the police
00:35:57.320 blew the investigation,
00:35:59.000 they weren't treating it
00:35:59.820 as seriously
00:36:00.440 as they should have,
00:36:01.400 and perhaps
00:36:02.000 some men died
00:36:03.580 because of their,
00:36:04.920 the way they handled
00:36:06.080 this case.
00:36:06.580 And by the way,
00:36:07.740 from everything I've read,
00:36:09.240 I do believe that.
00:36:10.320 I think the police
00:36:11.140 dropped the ball
00:36:11.880 on this file.
00:36:13.420 But because of
00:36:14.260 the Bruce MacArthur
00:36:15.020 serial killer story,
00:36:16.740 now the police
00:36:17.960 are hypersensitive
00:36:19.440 to what's happening
00:36:20.640 in the gay village.
00:36:22.160 So forget about
00:36:23.580 serial killers,
00:36:24.360 forget about people
00:36:25.140 preaching hate,
00:36:25.940 forget about people
00:36:27.040 intimating violence.
00:36:29.500 Just the very fact
00:36:30.700 that someone stands
00:36:31.660 on a corner
00:36:32.240 in the gay village
00:36:33.300 and says something
00:36:34.560 that some people there
00:36:36.000 don't want to hear,
00:36:37.460 well, it's almost like
00:36:38.560 calling all cars,
00:36:40.220 you know,
00:36:40.700 get thee to church
00:36:41.700 in Wellesley.
00:36:42.500 Yeah, you know,
00:36:42.940 the LGBT community
00:36:44.140 are real,
00:36:45.080 they're calculating,
00:36:45.780 they're real calculating.
00:36:46.580 The first time
00:36:47.060 I went to church
00:36:47.520 in Wellesley,
00:36:48.520 I saw how they,
00:36:49.860 how they spent
00:36:50.320 the news story.
00:36:51.360 And it was funny
00:36:52.040 that they,
00:36:52.620 the LGBTQ community
00:36:54.860 focused on the response
00:36:56.400 time to the police.
00:36:57.640 Oh.
00:36:58.060 And it's funny.
00:36:58.620 And I was like,
00:36:59.140 wow, these,
00:36:59.940 the police are the ones
00:37:00.700 that,
00:37:00.920 because there are
00:37:01.320 radical people out there
00:37:02.160 that probably will harm
00:37:03.140 particular minority communities.
00:37:05.000 If it wasn't for the police,
00:37:06.500 these are the police
00:37:07.100 that are actually keeping
00:37:08.040 these people safe
00:37:08.980 from the real terror,
00:37:09.700 from the real people
00:37:10.160 that want to hurt them.
00:37:11.120 And it's like,
00:37:11.600 for them to throw
00:37:12.260 the police under the bus
00:37:13.080 like that,
00:37:13.720 for a preacher,
00:37:14.280 all I was doing
00:37:14.740 was preaching love.
00:37:15.360 And they're like,
00:37:15.720 oh, I can't believe
00:37:16.340 it took 45 minutes
00:37:17.420 for the police
00:37:18.060 to get there.
00:37:18.980 They throw the very people
00:37:19.960 under the bus
00:37:20.740 that are saving them
00:37:22.220 high from the real terrorists
00:37:23.180 out there,
00:37:23.520 for real people
00:37:24.080 that want to eradicate them
00:37:25.080 and not want to just
00:37:25.740 evangelize them with love.
00:37:27.680 So,
00:37:28.000 but it's real calculating.
00:37:29.500 It's,
00:37:29.700 I think that was a calculating,
00:37:31.420 strategic angle to take,
00:37:33.000 to throw the police
00:37:33.680 under the bus.
00:37:34.160 And now,
00:37:34.500 because they threw them
00:37:35.080 under the bus,
00:37:36.060 David gets arrested,
00:37:37.260 I get arrested.
00:37:37.940 And it's almost like
00:37:38.680 they've been empowered.
00:37:41.100 Are you familiar
00:37:41.600 with the Wilcock case?
00:37:42.560 I've heard about that.
00:37:43.700 Where that guy,
00:37:45.080 he said something
00:37:46.200 that wasn't,
00:37:46.760 oh no,
00:37:47.000 he was handing out
00:37:47.800 condoms
00:37:49.320 at gay pride parade,
00:37:50.400 right?
00:37:50.720 But they weren't really condoms.
00:37:51.920 They said,
00:37:52.440 you know,
00:37:52.680 God loves you,
00:37:53.320 he died for your sins.
00:37:54.340 And they said
00:37:54.960 it was hate speech.
00:37:56.040 Now,
00:37:56.220 instead of throwing it
00:37:56.880 out of court,
00:37:57.560 they're actually going
00:37:58.200 through the courts right now
00:37:59.040 to,
00:37:59.740 like,
00:37:59.980 it's a bogus case,
00:38:01.400 but they decided
00:38:01.860 to process it.
00:38:02.940 So the fact
00:38:03.760 that they decided
00:38:04.680 to process it
00:38:05.480 empowers people more,
00:38:06.880 empowers the powers
00:38:08.120 that be more.
00:38:08.720 To be like,
00:38:09.040 well,
00:38:09.140 if this guy can get arrested
00:38:10.120 for just handing out
00:38:10.920 condoms to say,
00:38:11.820 you know,
00:38:12.100 repent and God loves you,
00:38:13.100 then how far
00:38:14.000 can we push this?
00:38:14.820 And that's what it seems
00:38:15.380 like is going on now.
00:38:16.120 You know,
00:38:16.580 it's fascinating,
00:38:17.860 Dory,
00:38:18.140 because,
00:38:18.660 I mean,
00:38:19.160 the gay community
00:38:19.840 for decades,
00:38:20.620 and I would argue,
00:38:21.460 perhaps rightfully so,
00:38:22.620 when your rights
00:38:23.260 are infringed upon,
00:38:24.600 they have said,
00:38:25.880 show some understanding,
00:38:27.560 show some tolerance,
00:38:29.160 and yet there are
00:38:30.120 certain members
00:38:30.820 in that community
00:38:31.860 that I think
00:38:33.200 are the most
00:38:33.720 intolerant of all.
00:38:35.100 And I will point to,
00:38:36.680 we just had
00:38:37.200 the Gay Pride Parade
00:38:38.180 this past weekend
00:38:39.640 in Toronto,
00:38:40.880 and two things.
00:38:42.920 One is,
00:38:43.840 the uniformed
00:38:45.500 police officers,
00:38:46.700 apparently,
00:38:47.600 at the bequest
00:38:48.480 of Black Lives Matter,
00:38:50.700 aren't supposed
00:38:52.440 to march in the parade,
00:38:53.400 so they don't get
00:38:54.940 to march.
00:38:56.360 Secondly,
00:38:57.200 when you look at
00:38:57.900 what happens
00:38:58.480 in that parade,
00:38:59.720 there is full frontal nudity.
00:39:02.640 And,
00:39:02.760 which,
00:39:03.100 the last time
00:39:03.620 I checked the criminal code,
00:39:04.780 I think,
00:39:05.100 I believe it's 174.1,
00:39:07.160 you can't be nude
00:39:08.480 in public like that.
00:39:10.120 So,
00:39:11.020 again,
00:39:12.240 it's so bizarre
00:39:13.460 to me,
00:39:14.460 Dory,
00:39:14.940 that the people
00:39:15.840 running Pride
00:39:16.540 are saying
00:39:17.200 to the uniformed police,
00:39:18.440 some of whom
00:39:18.900 are gay and lesbian
00:39:19.720 themselves,
00:39:20.660 you are not invited,
00:39:21.680 you can't come here.
00:39:23.400 And,
00:39:23.600 by the way,
00:39:24.340 we're going to break
00:39:25.340 a law,
00:39:25.860 not a phony,
00:39:27.240 fake,
00:39:27.880 hate speech law,
00:39:29.200 but a law law,
00:39:30.260 i.e.,
00:39:31.060 taking off
00:39:31.640 all our clothes
00:39:32.460 and don't you dare
00:39:33.980 arrest anybody
00:39:35.060 and they don't dare
00:39:36.240 arrest anybody.
00:39:37.180 What do you make of that?
00:39:38.580 Just double standard,
00:39:39.520 man.
00:39:39.880 And then,
00:39:40.600 that's another thing,
00:39:41.160 they're naked,
00:39:41.620 they're naked in front
00:39:42.560 of children,
00:39:43.580 in front of young kids.
00:39:45.900 It's,
00:39:46.180 once again,
00:39:46.560 man,
00:39:46.660 it's just,
00:39:47.960 it's the same,
00:39:49.080 once again,
00:39:49.880 it's the same people,
00:39:50.720 the police officers
00:39:51.520 that's protecting,
00:39:52.340 that protects us all.
00:39:53.240 Like,
00:39:53.400 people,
00:39:53.960 they'd be anarch
00:39:54.500 if he wasn't for the police.
00:39:55.760 The fact that they,
00:39:56.900 the police are in the parade
00:39:58.120 because the police are the ones
00:39:59.240 that set up the barriers,
00:40:00.640 the police are the ones
00:40:01.500 that keep people in their place,
00:40:02.560 the police are the ones
00:40:03.160 starting from people
00:40:03.620 throwing rocks,
00:40:04.240 or they start,
00:40:05.200 police are the ones,
00:40:05.940 even though they're not
00:40:06.540 allowed to march in the parade,
00:40:08.100 they're the ones,
00:40:08.940 they still organize
00:40:10.240 and keep ordering the parade. 0.98
00:40:12.000 And as far as
00:40:12.500 Black Lives Matters,
00:40:13.480 I think that's ridiculous.
00:40:14.360 There's no black people 1.00
00:40:15.100 getting killed
00:40:15.700 on the streets of Toronto.
00:40:17.860 There's not,
00:40:18.280 like,
00:40:18.540 this is not America.
00:40:19.520 You know,
00:40:19.640 in America,
00:40:20.240 I understand,
00:40:20.760 okay,
00:40:21.020 Black Lives Matter,
00:40:21.640 whatever,
00:40:22.300 but I think that's just
00:40:23.320 a silly radical movement,
00:40:24.740 too,
00:40:25.000 that's just bogus.
00:40:26.840 It's just bogus.
00:40:27.400 It's just some people
00:40:28.280 watch TV like,
00:40:29.160 oh, yeah,
00:40:29.360 we want a Canadian
00:40:30.020 Black Lives Matter.
00:40:30.880 I'm so glad
00:40:31.720 that black people
00:40:32.380 aren't getting killed
00:40:33.020 on Canadian streets.
00:40:33.980 Toronto police
00:40:34.480 aren't killing black people
00:40:35.320 on Canadian streets
00:40:35.920 at an alarming rate.
00:40:37.240 Vancouver is not happening.
00:40:38.120 It's not happening in Canada.
00:40:39.040 So Black Lives Matter
00:40:40.140 need to go back
00:40:40.780 to wherever they came from
00:40:41.840 and where things are,
00:40:44.800 where they actually need it,
00:40:45.860 where they think
00:40:46.960 that they're needed, right?
00:40:47.980 But here,
00:40:48.660 why bring that type
00:40:50.660 of stigmatism
00:40:51.500 and that type of bad energy
00:40:52.940 out here
00:40:53.440 when our police
00:40:54.700 aren't doing that.
00:40:55.700 And so they're the ones
00:40:56.600 that kick the police out
00:40:57.520 and then they're radical
00:40:58.840 and they're against the police.
00:41:00.060 They call them pigs
00:41:01.800 and they have signs
00:41:03.880 that say death to pigs
00:41:05.000 and stuff.
00:41:05.700 There's no way
00:41:06.220 that a radical,
00:41:07.020 almost like terrorist,
00:41:07.880 anyone who says
00:41:08.640 death to police,
00:41:09.600 I think they're like terrorists.
00:41:10.500 So there's no way
00:41:11.380 a radical terrorist group
00:41:12.420 should be able
00:41:12.720 to kick the police
00:41:13.420 out of a parade
00:41:14.740 which they police
00:41:15.540 and keep everybody safe.
00:41:16.760 I think that's ridiculous.
00:41:17.720 I agree, Doreen.
00:41:18.500 I remember her name escapes me
00:41:20.420 but she's one of the top organizers 0.98
00:41:22.380 of Black Lives Matter Toronto
00:41:23.740 and she had put out that tweet
00:41:25.360 where,
00:41:26.760 I'm going to paraphrase,
00:41:27.700 but it was words
00:41:28.180 along the lines of,
00:41:29.500 please, please, Allah,
00:41:31.400 prevent me from killing
00:41:32.640 all the white folk 0.58
00:41:33.840 around me right now.
00:41:35.360 Which, my goodness,
00:41:37.380 if I had said that
00:41:38.700 about black people,
00:41:39.860 well, I wouldn't have a job anymore.
00:41:40.960 I can tell you that much.
00:41:42.160 She not only is still
00:41:43.740 part of the committee,
00:41:44.840 she's never apologized.
00:41:46.440 And in fact,
00:41:47.020 I think John Tory two years ago
00:41:49.320 gave her some kind
00:41:50.700 of diversity award
00:41:51.960 from the city of Toronto.
00:41:54.000 I guess if diversity
00:41:55.060 includes preaching hate,
00:41:57.300 you're the diversity queen, right?
00:41:59.800 You know,
00:42:00.020 so sometimes I think, Doreen,
00:42:02.320 the world is upside down.
00:42:03.380 But before we wrap things up,
00:42:04.840 I have to ask you,
00:42:06.400 a lot of people out there
00:42:07.620 are probably saying,
00:42:09.400 okay, we get it.
00:42:11.160 We have free speech still,
00:42:13.360 although it's being attacked
00:42:14.620 on a daily basis, it seems.
00:42:16.580 But Toronto's a very big city.
00:42:18.760 There are thousands
00:42:20.020 of street corners
00:42:21.300 where Doreen Love could go 1.00
00:42:24.020 and David Lynn could go
00:42:25.660 and preach the gospel.
00:42:27.140 If you already know
00:42:28.360 ahead of the time
00:42:29.200 that there's a lot of people
00:42:30.760 in that community,
00:42:32.340 the gay village,
00:42:33.060 that is not receptive
00:42:34.020 to your message,
00:42:34.840 there's going to be a commotion
00:42:35.920 and now apparently
00:42:37.280 a good chance
00:42:37.980 of you being arrested,
00:42:39.540 why go there
00:42:40.660 in the first place?
00:42:41.580 I guess what I'm saying,
00:42:42.340 Doreen,
00:42:42.700 are you going there
00:42:43.520 with a chip on your shoulder?
00:42:44.480 Are you going there
00:42:45.440 to provoke
00:42:46.440 some kind of controversy?
00:42:48.060 No, not at all.
00:42:48.860 Not at all.
00:42:49.400 The thing is,
00:42:50.180 so the gay community,
00:42:52.680 they can go wherever,
00:42:53.580 it's called free speech, right?
00:42:55.820 And it's called public
00:42:56.820 sideways and stuff.
00:42:58.700 So it's like if we were
00:43:01.400 to follow that logic,
00:43:02.340 then how come a gay person 0.97
00:43:03.700 can come to Young and Dundas?
00:43:06.240 Christ Forgiveness Ministries,
00:43:07.680 I've been preaching there
00:43:08.640 for years,
00:43:09.220 David's been preaching there
00:43:10.060 for years,
00:43:10.500 Ministry of the Word,
00:43:11.420 we've been there for years.
00:43:12.780 So we can say the same thing,
00:43:14.080 well, why are you guys
00:43:14.840 bringing your gay pride parade
00:43:16.200 to where we've been preaching
00:43:16.980 for years?
00:43:17.820 Or it's the same thing,
00:43:18.900 why the Bible has 0.97
00:43:21.040 biblical principles
00:43:21.860 that basically say
00:43:23.560 that homosexuality 1.00
00:43:24.500 is not the best lifestyle,
00:43:25.540 it's not what God created
00:43:26.620 for men and women.
00:43:27.860 But however,
00:43:28.360 the gay community says,
00:43:29.500 no, you have to make us,
00:43:30.700 you have to let us
00:43:31.220 into your churches,
00:43:31.940 you have to change
00:43:32.600 what the Bible says
00:43:33.600 so we can become priests
00:43:35.020 and we can,
00:43:35.440 so it'd be different
00:43:36.660 if they weren't trying
00:43:37.920 to come to everywhere
00:43:39.020 that we are, right?
00:43:40.100 And then say,
00:43:40.860 oh, don't come to where we are.
00:43:41.960 Then we could have
00:43:42.680 some sort of,
00:43:43.360 you know, peace or something.
00:43:45.060 Like, okay,
00:43:45.380 we won't come there,
00:43:45.960 you won't come here.
00:43:46.440 But then that's segregation.
00:43:48.380 That leads to,
00:43:49.800 what if I just said,
00:43:50.800 oh, what if I was said
00:43:51.900 only you can,
00:43:53.480 if what if I was said
00:43:54.120 only gay people
00:43:54.780 can be regulated
00:43:56.180 to one certain area?
00:43:57.320 That would be homophobic.
00:43:58.760 You know,
00:43:59.000 I would probably lose my job.
00:44:00.800 I would every time
00:44:01.660 someone would see my face
00:44:02.520 so that's the homophobic guy.
00:44:03.460 What if I said
00:44:03.940 all black people
00:44:04.760 have to stay in one area?
00:44:05.840 The beautiful thing
00:44:06.600 about Toronto
00:44:07.180 is we are a melting pot
00:44:08.320 of all these different communities,
00:44:09.940 all these different walks of life,
00:44:12.080 all these different religions,
00:44:13.040 all these different ideologies.
00:44:14.300 And what makes Toronto great,
00:44:16.300 and I hope it stays like this,
00:44:17.380 is that we can all come together
00:44:18.420 and sometimes we can just
00:44:19.440 agree to disagree.
00:44:21.040 There's someone
00:44:21.460 in every single neighborhood
00:44:22.440 that wants to hear the gospel.
00:44:23.400 The Bible says that
00:44:24.620 the angels rejoice
00:44:26.300 over one sinner repenting.
00:44:28.220 So there could be 50 people
00:44:29.340 in a gay village 0.93
00:44:30.300 that don't want to hear the gospel.
00:44:31.800 What about that one that does?
00:44:33.300 We're there for that one that does.
00:44:34.580 It's not about going
00:44:35.260 to provoke anger
00:44:36.080 or provoke riot.
00:44:37.700 That's counterproductive.
00:44:39.300 We believe that we're led.
00:44:41.920 We believe Jesus
00:44:42.820 will make the world
00:44:43.540 a better place.
00:44:44.120 If we all loved our enemies,
00:44:45.240 if we all turned
00:44:45.820 the other cheek,
00:44:46.380 if we all prayed
00:44:46.900 for those who persecute us,
00:44:47.820 if we all had this
00:44:48.580 don't covet my neighbor's wife, 0.96
00:44:50.740 don't do this,
00:44:51.220 don't do that,
00:44:51.560 the world will be
00:44:52.460 a better place.
00:44:53.140 There's many people out there
00:44:54.160 that are saving the trees.
00:44:55.460 There's many people out there
00:44:56.420 that are saving the animals,
00:44:59.040 don't eat animals.
00:44:59.680 That's their way 0.96
00:45:00.280 of making the world
00:45:00.820 a better place.
00:45:01.660 This is our way
00:45:02.980 to making the world
00:45:03.820 a better place.
00:45:04.340 And if you relegate us
00:45:05.140 to this one certain area,
00:45:06.440 we can't make the world
00:45:07.180 a better place.
00:45:07.640 We only can make
00:45:08.160 that Pacific area
00:45:09.060 a better place.
00:45:10.120 No, you're right.
00:45:11.160 It should be
00:45:12.140 that we can agree
00:45:13.080 to disagree.
00:45:14.040 And even if you're
00:45:15.640 a member of a different faith,
00:45:16.860 even if you're an atheist,
00:45:17.820 that shouldn't come
00:45:19.620 into the fact
00:45:20.340 of curtailing your freedom
00:45:21.980 to preach
00:45:22.680 what you believe in
00:45:23.640 in any area.
00:45:25.120 One last question, Dori.
00:45:27.460 A, can you bring us
00:45:28.960 up to date
00:45:29.520 on what the charges
00:45:30.960 are against you,
00:45:32.420 if there's any movement
00:45:33.280 on that front?
00:45:34.420 And B, I'm wondering,
00:45:35.880 I spoke this weekend
00:45:38.420 with a law enforcement consultant,
00:45:41.480 and he told me,
00:45:43.280 judging by the video
00:45:44.480 he saw in your case,
00:45:46.340 the police made at least
00:45:47.900 four fundamental mistakes
00:45:49.840 in terms of infringing
00:45:51.480 upon your rights.
00:45:52.800 That leads me to ask,
00:45:54.780 are you considering
00:45:55.880 any kind of civil lawsuit
00:45:58.040 against the police?
00:46:00.520 And I'll hand it over to you.
00:46:02.620 Yeah, no, I'm not
00:46:03.680 a big person
00:46:04.600 in retaliatory type of methods.
00:46:09.400 Yeah, I mean,
00:46:10.040 I probably could,
00:46:10.740 but as long as
00:46:12.660 nothing comes of this,
00:46:14.040 as long as I'm not,
00:46:14.700 I don't have
00:46:15.180 a criminal record,
00:46:16.080 as long as, you know,
00:46:17.060 as long as the charges
00:46:17.800 are let go,
00:46:18.920 which I believe they are,
00:46:20.340 as long as,
00:46:21.460 just like when I'm on the street,
00:46:22.540 if someone does something to me,
00:46:23.820 I prefer not to put people in jail
00:46:25.140 because, you know,
00:46:26.120 you have to really do something
00:46:27.860 very, very wrong
00:46:28.940 or very, very bad to me
00:46:30.300 for me to try to, like,
00:46:33.160 you know, respond
00:46:33.800 in a type of, like,
00:46:35.520 revenge type way.
00:46:36.260 So I think I'm the type of person,
00:46:38.280 I'm kind of a pacifist.
00:46:39.840 Turn the other cheek,
00:46:40.740 live and let live,
00:46:41.740 no harm, no foul.
00:46:42.500 So if nothing major comes out,
00:46:44.280 you don't rule my record
00:46:45.080 where I can't fly
00:46:45.960 and I can't get,
00:46:46.800 I don't,
00:46:47.140 I've gone this long
00:46:48.180 with never having a record,
00:46:49.700 as long as nothing
00:46:50.300 that comes with it,
00:46:51.000 then I'm just going to move on
00:46:51.940 and continue to preach
00:46:52.840 and continue to let God
00:46:54.720 take care of the people
00:46:55.580 that, you know,
00:46:57.080 the Bible says,
00:46:57.620 vengeance is mine,
00:46:58.260 says the Lord.
00:46:58.720 So let God take them
00:47:01.000 and do what they want with them
00:47:02.560 and I'm just going to continue
00:47:03.360 to do what I'm doing,
00:47:04.020 just preaching,
00:47:04.780 focusing on the goal
00:47:05.520 and let everyone else
00:47:07.200 do what they do.
00:47:07.960 Great.
00:47:08.520 Well, that's fantastic,
00:47:09.580 Dorey.
00:47:09.840 And please stay in touch.
00:47:12.300 Let us know
00:47:12.960 when your day in court is.
00:47:15.240 I don't care
00:47:16.120 if the mainstream media
00:47:17.080 has now lost interest
00:47:18.460 in this story,
00:47:19.560 but we'd like to be down there.
00:47:21.100 We'd like to tell
00:47:21.780 the other side of the story.
00:47:22.680 We'd like to give you
00:47:23.300 a fair shake
00:47:23.980 and find out what happens.
00:47:25.900 And thank you so much
00:47:26.960 for coming in
00:47:27.580 to the Ezra Levin Show.
00:47:29.460 And there you have it, folks.
00:47:31.320 Free speech isn't free.
00:47:32.780 It's being attacked every day
00:47:34.700 on so many levels.
00:47:36.780 You've just heard
00:47:37.840 the most recent example.
00:47:40.380 And if you,
00:47:42.020 as they say,
00:47:43.000 don't use it,
00:47:43.980 lose it.
00:47:44.440 We have to stand up
00:47:45.360 for our rights
00:47:45.940 and for our freedom
00:47:47.400 to say what we want
00:47:49.280 to believe
00:47:49.780 and what we think.
00:47:57.580 We'll be right back.
