Funniest name of the year, so far

Although some of my best griends are Jewish [Really? Ed.] OK, start again... Although some of my best friends were Jewish... [Do you mean they used to be Jewish or they used to be your best friends? Ed.] OK, never mind...

My pool of knowledge of the religion of the Chosen People could be deeper. For instance, I was unaware that yesterday was Purim, a holy day in the Jewish calendar. Seemed to some of the looney left pro-Hamas types like a good day to stage a demonstration in support of calls for a ceasefire (read: We're losing so let's have a time-out) in Gaza.

This was in mid-town Toronto, the city that thinks it's world-class but is actually Democratic-American-class. Such demonstrations are almost daily occurrences in the Little Green Apple. They are marked by the shouting of anti-Semitic slogans, and the display of Palestine flags mingled with pro-queer, union, and indigenous banners.


There's occasionally a little violence, when Toronto cops try to separate the SWINE (Students Wildly Indignant about Everything -- Hello to Al Capp, wherever you are) from the pro-Israel types. Weapons are occasionally produced and sometimes (not often) the storm troopers make an arrest for littering or somesuch.

[Sorry to interrupt, but when are you going to get to the "funniest name"? Ed.] 
Hey, I'm coming to it!

Yesterday, the Toronto police said they received a complaint that a man at the demonstration had a knife concealed on "their" [sic - this is Toronto the Gay. Ed.] person. They then investigated, eh, found a large knife under "their" clothing, and took "him" into custody. 

In a news release, Toronto police said "Sodapop Liptrott" [sic], 25, of Toronto, has been charged with carrying a concealed weapon, and is schedule to appear in court on May 2nd. 

I hope Agent 3 can get to the courthouse to find out if that's the accused's real name, or just something he told the cops. If it's his real name, what part of Ireland do you suppose he was from? And whose side do you think he's on? Will he change his name to "Mohammed" to get a slap on the wrist and be back on the streets in time for the next demo? Stay tuned.
