Brock Anton villification campaign erupts on Facebook after gloating about Vancouver riot
This page will get lots of "likes" from Vancouver.
Facebook
A man who reportedly bragged about punching a police officer in riot gear and being tear-gassed twice is now being slammed on several new Facebook pages.
The "Brock Anton Sucks Dick", the "Don't Allow Brock Anton in Vancouver", "Brock Anton for Darwin Award", "Spam Brock Anton", and "Don't forget Brock Anton, rioter" pages went up after news outlets reported that a man by this name wrote the following on his Facebook page:
"Maced in the face, hit with a batton, tear gassed twice, 6 broken fingers, blood everywhere...Through the jersey on a burning cop car, flipped some cars, burnt some smart cars, burnt some cop cars, im on the news ... one word ... history :) :) :)"
Anton has not replied to media requests for interviews and at this point, there's no proof that he actually exists.
There's also no evidence that Vision Vancouver spin doctors invented him to smear the name Anton in advance of the November civic election.
Even in their circles, there will be embarrassment and humiliation. Some will be mortified that these creeps have been caught. Others will wonder how they could be so stupid as to have convicted themselves by posting tweets, blogs and their own photos.
Whatever the motive, the end result should be the same. These rioters are unfit to live in the community. The moral suasion of the whole community needs to be brought to bear.
Every photo of these idiots in action needs to be widely published, again and again. They will serve as a permanent warning to any other sociopath who wants to trash our city. What a wonderful service is being provided today by social media.
Self-entrapment is surely best. Thanks, dummies. You have made law enforcement easier, your future darker, and our city better in the long run.
Darwin never, ever loses.
If you know him, tell us more about him to prove that.
If this dirtbag has been positively identified he has hopefully been locked up by now. If not why not?
I think a review of 1933 is in order to see how a crowd can be whipped up. Vancouverites have been told that their #1 so often by their media no one has ever looked into who designates and what criteria they make their conclusion from. Nor do people see that the difference between being #1 or #10 on those dubious lists is 1%.
The world or at least the western world was interested in this story for 5 minutes as this type of violence after or during sports games is nothing new to Europeans or even South Americans. Get over it Vancouver and let the police do their job without people rushing to out those.
Perhaps one should question why the police didn't call in their day shift riot police but rather 20 officers from Abbotsford. Could it be that the Mayor, who is the chair of the Police Board and the bean counters at the police station put a ceiling on costs for policing the last game?
And why isn't CBC who hyped and juiced the series in order to increase their ad rates and who invited everyone down to their big TV screen being asked to help pay for the police costs? After all, after Game 6 CBC charged its advertisers $140,000 a pop to play another of those violent commercials?
Now all these losers are on facebook posting their pictures and trying to get the other people in trouble . This social media has become out of control , a breeding ground for idiots with no values or moral resposibility . Sure , the rioters should be punished , but so should the hundreds of idiots who stood around recording it on their phones preventing police from being able to reach the scene .
In the case of the Vancouver riot, Brock Anton's post of supposed participation in the rioting has landed him in the spotlight of the event. An internet explosion of blogs and twitters about
Brock grow more popular every day. With negative comments about Brock, Referring to him as a "moron" and "a douche bag". There has even been a song made on YouTube expressing hatred towards Brock called "the ballad of Brock anton". People describe themselves as being disgusted with the rioters and truly feel that they should be put in jail.
Well, if fingers are going to be pointed, lets make sure they are pointed in the right direction.
Let me share with you some things that I hate and find disgusting.
With the planet being so beautiful, it is hard to imagine that destruction and violence could ever even happen. When something like a "riot" or "war" happens, we automatically assume it was caused by a rivalry between two or more groups. Without considering other aspects, we focus on the problem instead of how the problem got there in the first place. Wise people understand this but most people do not, and it is formidable because that is how we have been taught to think. Putting band-aids on slashed arteries instead of going for surgery is how this corporate world works. There are many systems that prove this to be evident. I.e. Military wars blamed on terrorism, while actually being fueled by corporate investments in weapons and oil, but we are told its for freedom. Medical systems that abolish and hide natural remedies, leaving only patented synthetic medication to our evermore sick and rising population. Justice systems packed with unjust laws keep prisons being built and overflowing, and everyone else paying fines and tax. big corporate stores sell stuff really cheap so we can "save money and live better" while small businesses are squashed out and slave labor is more than common. we are bombarded with Glorified sports events, movies and media to keep us distracted.
These are just a few of the of the controlling systems we live under and they are designed to keep the world leaders rich and to keep us down. When people live under these abusive systems, we begin to have hatred in us without even knowing where it came from.
So when the riots stared in Vancouver, the loosing of the canucks did not fuel the riot but only sparked built up anger from years of systematic abuse.
This "hate" is in all of us, so whether you hate Brock, the police, or someone else, if we would hate "hate" instead of each other we would not have problems like this.
So to the people that call down on the rioters I say this,
WHEN THE CORPORATE LEADERS WANT TO MAKE A BUCK OFF THE CONTROLLED DESTRUCTIVE DEATH OF YOU AND YOUR FAMILY, I BET YOU'LL WISH YA HAD THE FUCKEN' BALLS TO STAND UP TO THEM JUST LIKE BROCK DID AND THEN THROW IT IN THEIR FACEBOOK!!!
Thanks for listening .
