guess what, the games are here and your only hurting your cause by protesting them, no one gives a shit that you want a free hand out and that you would prefer the olympic money to go to buying you a downtown condo.

You need to step back and see things from other people's perspective, my friend.

I'm not a big fan of protesters. Most of them are attention seekers and they always have a hidden agenda (professional protesters). They like to play the role of saviour. However, some of the things VANOC and government officials has done with tax payers' money, is a blatent waste. I would much rather have the money wasted go toward supporting the athletes and people in need.

I know you've been born with a silver spoon in your mouth (at least that's how you go about portraying yourself at times), but there are a lot of people hurting out there and their voices are never heard. I have experienced povery first hand, living my first 16 years of my life in the downtown eastside.

Let me say this agaIn. Those protesters are a bunch of yahoos. They incite others to do some pretty dumb things. Some of the things I've seen them do is pretty pathetic, but...............

"There but for the grace of god go I"

Not all of us are fortunate to be born into good situations.........
