Thank god!
another reason these panels need to go.
never mind the fact that he spent 100K defending himself, and the complaintees didn't have to drop a dime!
If this was in a REAL court room the crown would order the plantif to cover his costs.
Another complete abuse of the system and yet again, ANOTHER reason to get rid of these fucken HRC.
They should refund every penny he had to spend.
talk about a joke.

Holy shit, I didn't know he had to spend his own money to defend himself. I totally agree that is totally wrong. He's a complete dick, but that doesn't mean some uppity Imam gets to make him lose 100k over a couple of drawings.
LOL thats funny!!! DerbyX gets to eat crow over this one.
I'm sure he got more than a $100,000 in self-promotional advertising for his blog, so it probably works out.

That's just great guys. So now when we do need them they will be no where to be found. Let's not bs each other here Ezra was intentionally skating on thin ice to sell his rag, not to go to the wall for all Canadians and now when some hate group wants to wade in they (thanks to their hero Ezra) will be able to do it now with all the more impunity. Thanks for nothing!

I don't think so, I gave $100.00 to him lots of people donated
he still needs more.

Wait, we NEED a kangaroo court for these guys? Are you kidding Scape? Ezra did what he wanted to do, and sure it was to sell more copies of the Western Standard...what's your point? That's what the media does, give us current event stories that have interest to the general public, and sell that to us in newspaper/magazine purchases or TV commercials. They made a business decision, but what they printed was FAR from hate speech or anything else, and they were targeted for posting something that was just as easily accessible from the Internet.
Second, THAT GROUP ISNT COMING IN. The border is stopping them. There is no right of foreigners to freely travel into Canada.

WK is an asshole. Who listens to that washed up kid?
I'd personally be interested to see what Erza has to say about the Westboro Church....

Panel DecisionsYour telling me the Alberta Human Rights Commission is a Kangaroo court? Smarten up!
Or would you like being called a Paki in the workplace?
Bullshit Scape.
Havent you noticed the good news clips recently about the HRC? It's not just defending resteraunt workers who don't want to wash their hands but actual, legitimate and respectable stories. The HRC are scared and their putting all the good stories into the press as much as they can.
These problems can be dealt with by real courts, not these dog & poney shows.
hurley_108: You didn't know that Ezra had to pay for this himself? I don't think any defendants get aid. maybe that's why these comissions have their 100% conviction success rates.
Fire Them All!

Horseshit Rain.
Once again you're ready to throw baby out with the bathwater. You get one newspaper that doesn't get its way because they want to throw gas on a brush fire so they go do what everyone else had the sense not to. Now that they got burned they cry on the AHRC and call them a witch hunt. No one was forcing that clown to publish that rubbish. That holier than thou free speech bs can go right out with that idiot Zundle because when push comes to shove there are limits to speech.
Libel, slander, and persecution can better be dealt with within the legal system better than by a court than makes it up as they go along. People who want to sue because their feelings get hurt better find some other way of making a living.
