Terror attack in Ottawa...
Looks like dangerous anarchists....
An anti-establishment group claimed responsibility for the firebombing of a Glebe bank early Tuesday morning.I never liked their silly protests at various international meetings...but this goes way too far. Thank to Vlad Tepes for the tip.
The group also vowed to “be there” at the upcoming G8 and G20 summits in an online video that shows a massive fireball exploding from the front window of a Royal Bank of Canada branch on Bank Street and First Avenue.
In the short clip, one person emerges from the branch’s side door and is then silhouetted against a vivid orange flash. Another person follows him out the door and the pair begin to head east across First.
The video abruptly cuts to scrolling text.
“The Vancouver Olympic games are over, but a torch is still burning,” the text reads.
Firefighters responded to the blaze at about 3:30 a.m. Tuesday, and had it under control just after 4 a.m. No one was injured.
The video was posted on an anti-establishment website at 11:59 a.m. Tuesday. It appears to have been shot on a handheld camera from the northwest corner of the intersection.
“Resistance continues,” the text reads. “An RBC branch can be found in every corner of Kanada (sic).”
In the next paragraph, it mentions the G8 and G20 conferences that are to take place at the end of June in Huntsville and Toronto, where “‘leaders’ and bankers (will) make decisions that will further their policies of exploitation of people and the environment.

This settles it then.
I'm going to get myself an RBC account.
Anti-establishment? What a bunch of ignorant rejects.
Are they unhappy with capitalism? success?
If they're that unhappy with society they can go live up north and fend for themselves and leave the rest of us the hell alone.
Then again, people with that much time on their hands don't exactly spend it fending for themselves (i.e working). So I shouldn't really expect them to really be able to make it out on their own.
Which leads me to another line of thought, in that, even if they got their way; someone "bigger and badder" would be around to take it back from them.
