Hate Cop Tries to get Topham’s U.S. Server to Drop Him
We try not to oversell our case. However, when we label police “hate squads” as the thought police, we are being precise and accurate. In an undated letter, Detective-Constable Terry Wilson, who self-importantly identified himself as “Detective Terry Wilson of the BC Hate Crime Team of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police E-Division Major Crime” wrote to pressure Canadian dissident Arthur Topham’s U.S. Internet Service Provider to drop him.
True, Mr. Topham has been charged under Canada’s notorious Sec. 319 of the Criminal Code for wilfully promoting hate against privileged groups. Det. Wilson asserts that Mr.Topham is using his radicalpress website for “Hate Speech or other offensive speech or content.”
The New World Order thought cops clearly know nothing of our Anglo-Saxon legal tradition. Mr. Topham is a victim of a minority-instigated charge. That’s all it is — an accusation. In our system, the accused is still INNOCENT until proven guilty in court.
Police are supposed to investigate “crime” not write to other countries to try to inflict punishment on a man who has not even been tried yet.
What a country! This thought cop is actually a member of the Mounties’ “Major Crime Division.” For a frightened politically correct Establishment, maybe “thought crimes” and dissent really are “major crimes.”
Arthur Topham asks that you write in decent terms to Zach P at legal@netfirms-inc.com — doesn’t anyone give a full name anymore? — and urge him not to give in to Wilson’s bullying and attempt at state censorship.
We note that during Prime Minister Harper’s recent visit to India, he was challenged about the Canadian government’s toleration of Sikh radicalism and support for Khalistan — an independent Punjab. “I’t may be a political position that both the government of Canada and the government of India disagree with. We can’t interfere with the right of political freedom of expression,'” the Vancouver Sun (Nov.9, 2012) reported him as saying. We hope Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh laughed in his face and whispered: “What about Arthur Topham?”
