It was a day where foam appeared at the mouth of many.
MHA Gerry Rogers was found in contempt of the House of Assembly today.
She was charged,found guilty and hung.
Except that she was not guilty.
Even the Speaker of the House said it himself - that a member should be given the benefit of the doubt of the offence for which The Witch Hunt says she was guilty.
It appears to boil down to the fact that the mild-manner MHA
happened to be walking by a murder scene for which
she was neither aware nor an accomplice.
But, alas the Speaker had to appease the Witch Hunters.
He tried to extract an apology from Ms. Rogers.
And she three times rightly denied owning the offence.
Three times she railed against the injustice.
The injustice of a wild Witch Hunt looking for a way
to cloak the mess they have entangled themselves in recent times by trying to cast themselves as the victim.
In the end, the MHA was escorted from the Legislature for her so-called offence.
What was outstanding in the whole sordid affair
was how low Government will stoop to impinge any "Honourable" member.
Each day in the Legislature each of our MHAs who represents us in this province
get to be called "honourable" members.
It is all about the protocol, respect and decency ingrained in our democratic system.
Rather than speaking privately to the Honourable member to inquire - or give her the heads up about the other fanatical members who threatened the premier - the Witch Hunt instead look the low road to justice.
Instead of treating her on a professional basis,
the Witch Hunt tried to expose her publicly,
created mass hysteria
and brought her to the edge of the burning fire.
It is a sign of the times -
where there is an over abundance of
Injustice against the Just here in our province.
Imagine that!
Right here in Newfoundland and Labrador
- the land of the most hospitable people in the world.
It's downright sacrilegious ...
"Each day we should wake up foaming at the mouth because of the injustice of things.”
