This video was actually from over a year ago, and apparently this guy was not an anti-lockdown protester. Still disgusting behavior by the police, but Levant is lying by leaving out the context.

To be fair he isn't claiming this is an anti-lockdown protest and he isn't suggesting it is recent, but otherwise I agree.

Lying or was simply unware of the context himself?

Possibly, but I can remember when Ezra Levant was in good with all of the Canadian media and political establishment. The Rebel might be getting banned from lefty campaign buses these days, but it's not enough to convince me he's not a fed.

He's a journalist isn't he? Why didn't he do his job before he shared this?

Nearly all his staff left him a couple years ago due to a big controversy. Faith Goldy for example was among them. Those on screen today appear to be all new hires.

From memory this was from over a year ago, the guy was having a bipolar episode or something similar and broke a window in an emergency department, hence the cops getting called. He survived but was in a coma for a while.

It was in the news again recently because the cop was cleared of the initial investigation. Both the driver of the car and the stomper guy.

edit

subsequent investigations by a commission found it "lawful" trigger warning legacy media link

The corruption watchdog found that police had failed to tell Mr Atkins why he was being detained as they arrested him or shortly afterwards, provide him care after dousing him with capsicum spray and that some officers did not turn on their body-worn cameras.

So they ran the guy down in a police car, kicked him in the head so badly he needed to be put in an induced coma, failed to give him medical assitance afterwards, and conveniently body cameras were not turned on. One cop has had a paid holiday for a year (suspended with full pay) and the other one is not allowed to drive a police car but no other disciplinary action. And no-one faced any charges for this.

What a pack of corrupt cunts. I hope that lawyer sues the pants off them.

No BLM protests for this guy though...what's the matter? Do Bi Polar lives not matter? ;) Oh sorry, wrong skin color, he needed to be a bit darker for stupid lefties to actually care.

All jokes aside, it is pretty appalling behavior on the cops behalf, ain't it?

Hitting him with the car is less outrageous than the headstomps that followed.

Australia is a third world country now.

If that was a black guy, it would be international news.
