    I don't understand. 48 hours ago, someone blew up a police van. And the MSM said very little.

    24 hours ago, I posted this story, and nobody here says anything ethier?? Do we not care why police vans are getting blown up?

    Police Van (close to donut shop) blown up draws no response on Vive le Canada.
    That’s a toughie, DC
    And somewhat in the same vein (pun intended) we have our own 'Anna Nicole Smith' in the impaired form of indy: more whacked out vitriolic, different topic and an imbalance of interest by the lookie-loos. (see the number of views garnered)
    Although I am an avowed anti-statist and the police of today are “enforcers” who operate in the same manner as outlaw biker gangs, only “da cops’ got state ‘juice’ backing their random acts of violence. Whether ‘false flag’ or real things that go BOOM! only give rise to tighten state control.
    That the police tend to Protect and Serve the state apparatus and not the citizenry wins them no respect in my, and others I’ve spoke with, eyes.


    Perhaps the van explosion story was spiked so as not to encourage more such acts, one can only speculate, or perhaps the van bomb was a bit police state terror- “who knows” ain’t speaking

    "Perhaps the van explosion story was spiked so as not to encourage more such acts"

    Which is exactally what I was thinking. No motive, no suspects . . a 10 line story on page 15 that should be front and centre.

    Dr Caleb, your story shows up now in my comment section since you and Diogenes just posted, but not in the main body anywhere. I'm computer illiterate enough to be missing something obvious here. What gives?

    Not every story is shown on the main page. Some, like this are only shown in the 'Sections'. They can be viewed by ethier clicking on the name of the section (To the left or the icons along the top of the home page; "Home", "Action Items", "Canada - US relations" . . .) or on the front page under 'What's new' on the right, and "X new stories in the last 1 day".

    'Front page' is an editorial decision, based on Vive's mission statement. If it is directly related to Vive's mission then it is shown front page. For example, anything in 'Humour' will never be front page. :( 'Soverignty Watch' will always be front page.
