2 more Toronto speed cameras cut down, as Ford urges city to do away with 'tax grab'

Jump

  • There is absolutely no evidence that speed cameras are "tax grabs". This is a lie that just keeps getting repeated.

    New York is the North-American city with the most speed cameras.

    • Budget of NYC ? $115 billion dollars. (1)
    • Revenue of NYC speed cameras ? $222 million dollars (2)
    • 222 million /115 billion = 0,19304

    Speeding tickets are 0.19% of New York's revenue.

    If you drive above the speed limit and get a ticket, you aren't a victim. You will get over it.

    Not enough attention is paid to the pain and suffering of the real victims:

  • This man has done an absolutely astonishing amount of damage to Australian democracy.

    He has also damaged democracy in the United Kingdom and the United States. For decades, his medias have promoted climate change denialism, anti-union propaganda, and the most astonishing lies.

    I still remember the headline of The Sun right before the UK referendum on European Union membership:

    He is nothing less than a vicious criminal:

    Shame on Australia for producing such a piece of shit.

    He wouldn't have the power he has today without ordinary Australians using his medias as a source of information.
