With all deference to Jenny Jones, maybe "Gay Lord".
You mean Jenny James ... or did that '90s daytime talk show host wade into the debate now?

Looks like Sarah Doucette stepped into it -- late! -- with the 3030 story: Rob Ford was at bar 3030 Dundas St. W (Ward 13) into the wee hours of this Thursday. Witnesses said he was very drunk. Drove himself home.
Odd how one person showed up at the Sun and insisted repeatedly that Ford was drunk. We have the 3030 bartender saying that Ford was there but apparently not drinking while he was there.
Am I too paranoid, or was this a setup?
I have no idea if Ford was drunk or not on this particular occasion, but don't we know from experience that he's a "chug" type of drinker, and that he doesn't do his drinking in the open?

The right thing to do would have been to make sure a Canadian flag was put up there first and foremost, with the pride flag underneath.

Cities across the country have raised Pride flags at their city halls, including in Vancouver, Whistler, Montreal, Ottawa, and Montreal, to stand in solidarity with Russian LGBT communities.
The Quebec government has announced it will fly the rainbow flag at Montreal's Olympic Stadium, where the 1976 Summer Games were held.
.... and guess what's the top news on 1010? Idiot. Way to make Ford look like a victim. AGAIN.Doucette is now saying it was a re-tweet. Looks like she jumped the gun. Everything that is going on at City Hall today just stinks of diversion by Ford. The cops, unfortunately, wouldn't comment when they left, however I agree with the person upthread that said Ford posing for pics while the cops were there is not the behaviour of a person who is receiving threats to himself and his family.
Also from what I understand it's against the "rules" to put another flag on the same pole as the Canadian flag.
Progressive Torontonians ought to blah blah
After watching the Ashleigh Banfield interview with Doolittle on CNN, it just occurred to me that not only has Rob Ford the man made Toronto out to be an ongoing international joke, but that his approval ratings are around 45% makes Torontonians look like absolute idiots to the world.
And let's face it, this solidarity movement with Russia's LGBT community is very ideologically inconsistent. It is very hard to justify taking such a pro-active stance against Russia specifically when much worse human rights' violations are committed by our political allies around the world.

I've learned the threat against the mayor & his family was made by a woman in a voicemail message that came in around 8-9am-ish #TOPoli

Woman didn't threaten anyone in particular besides the mayor, but the Ford family. Police investigating now #TOpoli
