Another Slow News Day For CBC.....

Quote from CBC..."Afghan father wants revenge for children's deathsThe father of two children shot to death by Canadian troops in Afghanistan said Thursday he will "kill the Canadians" if he gets the chance."
His kids are killed.....I would guess that yes, he would like revenge. Anyone would. As would the 1000's of Afghans who have had family murdered by the Taliban or other suicide bombers. As would the family of the young man murdered in Winnipeg as would the soldiers families being killed overseas. What a stupid headline. Honest to god. I find it hard to believe that an organisation like the CBC cannot put out better material for their readers. Again, they are just sounding anti Canadian Forces with crap like this. Why not a normal take on what happened ? It was a terrible mistake yes....but a headline like that ? Maybe they'll come up with a headline for the murder here in Canada such as.....hmmm...."Family terribly upset that son gruesomely murdered. Want to take revenge on Asian man who killed him" I would. I would want terrible revenge. It's an obvious thing. OK..you get the point. I guess they're relieved that at least now they have an interesting news story to work on. Really sad. Really.
