OH MY GOD.... CLASSISIFIED HAS THE BEST BULLY VIDEO E-VA- Break the chains of abuse
VIBE Premiere: Classified '3 Foot Tall' Video-OFFICIAL VIDEO
VIBE Posted July 23, 2013 -
In the follow-up to his chart-topping single "Inner Ninja," rapper Classified doesn't fall short of delivering his message on "3 Foot Tall." In the video, the Canadian spitter recruits a pint-sized voice box to battle against negative verbal warfare. "When you're alone, life can be a little rough/ It makes you feel like you're 3 foot tall/ When it's just you, well times can be tough/ When there's no one there to catch your fall," sings the toddler with a faux black eye. With words like "dummy," "loser," and the more sexually charged "faggot" and "lesbian" sprawled across the clip, the writings on the wall come at a time where digital bullying has run rampant in the younger generation, especially with the presence of social media. Still, it's the ability to overcome that stands above all. Watch the rapper also known as Luke Boyd preach the good word in the video below. - See more at: http://www.vibe.com/article/classified-3-foot-tall-video#sthash.q3GzUtE2.dpuf

In the ER, outrage over wanton road carnage
July 26, 2013 - 5:18pm By DR. JOHN ROSS
Dr. John Ross: "For every death we hear about, there are 10 to 15 injury victims we never hear about. That makes us all responsible for challenging this ridiculous culture of acceptance of alcohol abuse in Nova Scotia." (CHRISTIAN LAFORCE / File).
The phone jars me awake. A blurry 3-something on the clock. EHS Communications Centre calling to patch me together with the Life Flight physician, who has been woken up multiple times already, and a surgeon in Antigonish.
I stumble out of the room so as not to wake my wife. The Life Flight physician briefly recounts the futile attempt by the team, who landed at a roadside in Cape Breton, to help resuscitate a car crash victim — now the third fatality at the scene.
They are now flying to Antigonish where four other victims are being assessed and stabilized. They are what remains of the seven people, all under 21 years old, unbelted, who were in a subcompact car that went off the road.
The surgeon is now listing the patients and their injuries. My mind flips between what he is saying and visions of the organized chaos at the scene — the first person there, then fire department personnel, EHS paramedics, and police. Ejected kids everywhere, some alive, some dead.
Two hours later, the youths arrive, one by one, first by Life Flight, then by ground ambulance. From the scene to Antigonish to the Halifax Infirmary, the cast of many emergency care providers have done a fantastic job making sense of this senseless tragedy.
At the Infirmary, where this happens all too often, the trauma team goes to work — further treatments, CAT scans, many specialists, preparation for the operating room.
Then one of our amazing social workers or nurses will join me on the long hallway walk to the family room for the heart-wrenching job of breaking bad news and listening to too many questions I cannot answer.
What does the general public hear about this familiar tragedy? "Three more dead on N.S. highway," or something to that effect. Then something about the annual death toll so far; comparisons to previous years.
Is this worse? Is there a reason? Brief outrage, soul-searching, then the next story, and all is forgotten. What are we missing?
Let’s follow the common trajectory of the survivors from similar crashes. Surviving drivers face major legal and social consequences. Passengers suffer life-long mixtures of the effects of acquired brain injury, followup surgeries, surgical complications, intensive care, chronic pain, paralysis, depression, addictions, and employment problems, to name a few.
Families and friends are affected. PTSD counselling should be available for the first responders, but it is often forgotten, leaving them altered forever.
The majority of these crashes are the result of alcohol misuse. Alcohol poisons brain nerves, resulting in loss of inhibition ("life of the party"), poor decisions and risk-taking behaviour.
Sometimes intoxicated drivers crash into other vehicles with innocent victims. Those who survive end up being cared for by all of us through our public health care system.
For every death we hear about, there are 10 to 15 injury victims we never hear about. That makes us all responsible for challenging this ridiculous culture of acceptance of alcohol abuse in Nova Scotia.
Alcohol intoxication, risk-taking, binge-drinking, under-age drinking are all apparently a rite of passage in Nova Scotia. It is part of our heritage. The annual cull on our highways and waterways (drownings) and other 100 per cent preventable injuries are just collateral damage — acceptable I guess, because few seem to care.
At the same time, lots of people do seem to care about long wait times to see specialists or delays to get medical tests.
If there were fewer people with 100 per cent preventable injuries and illnesses related to alcohol abuse, seeing those specialists and using those tests — might there be better access for people whose medical problems are not of their own making?
When are we going to challenge the "fun lifestyle" marketing of beer and liquor corporations, the NSLC, binge-drinking promotion at bars, and our culture that believes that drinking large volumes of a nerve poison is normal?

‘Nobody’s safe out there’: Victims’ families hail MacKay as he signals change to drunk driving laws
EDMONTON — The new federal justice minister says the Conservative government is considering changes to impaired driving legislation in the Criminal Code.
But Peter MacKay, who only took over the portfolio earlier this month, wouldn’t say exactly what is being pondered as he headed into a meeting with crime victims in Edmonton.
"I can tell you I did numerous trials on impaired driving cases, first as a defence lawyer and then prosecuting cases," MacKay said Thursday, recalling his time working as a lawyer in Nova Scotia.
"I recall vividly a judge making a statement in a trial that I was prosecuting to the accused that driving down the road while under the effect of drugs or alcohol is no different than pointing a gun at another human being."

Ending drunk-driving deaths is in sight, experts say
Mom picking up son charged with drunk driving also charged with drunk driving
.
MacKay said he wanted to meet with more victims of impaired driving before announcing the changes the government is contemplating.
One of the people MacKay met with Thursday was a mother whose 18-year-old son was one of three Alberta men killed in a crash where drunk driving was suspected.
The ministers words were a huge relief for Sheri Arsenault, whose son Bradley Arsenault died along with two friends south of Edmonton on Nov. 26, 2011.
Jonathan Pratt, 28, of Beaumont, Alta., is charged in the case, which is still before the courts.
I believe we have to continue to send that signal of just how serious an incident that is, and the consequences — the consequences that you cause, and the consequences that you have to live with when you put drugs and alcohol in your system and get behind the wheel of a car
.
"Finally somebody in government is maybe going to listen to us," Arsenault said.
Arsenault has become a spokesperson for a group, Families for Justice, which has been collecting names on a petition calling for mandatory minimum sentences for impaired driving causing death. The petition also calls for the Criminal Code to be changed to redefine the offence of impaired driving causing death as vehicular manslaughter.
Last fall, provincial justice ministers asked the federal government to consider increased penalties for impaired driving, particularly crimes involving repeat offenders, serious injury or death.
MacKay said impaired driving laws need to send a strong message because of the consequences involved.
"I believe we have to continue to send that signal of just how serious an incident that is, and the consequences — the consequences that you cause, and the consequences that you have to live with when you put drugs and alcohol in your system and get behind the wheel of a car," MacKay said.
Arsenault was originally supposed to meet with former justice minister Rob Nicholson, but Prime Minister Stephen Harper’s cabinet shuffle earlier this month meant that meeting had to be cancelled.
MacKay apologized to Arsenault on behalf of Nicholson, saying Nicholson had been looking forward to meeting with her.
Arsenault said MacKay’s announcement Thursday was the first she had heard the government was considering changes to the Criminal Code.
With drunk driving being the largest cause of criminal death in Canada by far, it’s a serious concern
.
"He gave me the sense that he’s a regular father with a regular family who sees this crime for what it is," said Arsenault.
Arsenault noted the Harper government has made being tough on crime a motto and has brought in mandatory minimums for drug offences.
She said there should also be mandatory minimums for impaired drivers who kill.
"With drunk driving being the largest cause of criminal death in Canada by far, it’s a serious concern. Nobody’s safe at any time out there."
comment:
Drunk drivers kill more people every year than firearms do. Unfortunately a vast majority of drunk drivers are acquitted on ridiculous technicalities (see the M.Trudeau trial as an example). Politicians need to eliminate loop holes by reigning in the judiciary with the use of the "notwithstanding clause" and with solid legislation.

Drunk driver to stay in jail
Man convicted in 2004 crash that killed two people
By SHERRI BORDEN COLLEY Staff Reporter
Michael Gerard Cooper, the man responsible for killing two young people in a drunk driving crash almost nine years ago near River Bourgeois, will remain in prison until his sentence ends next January.
On Jan. 23, 2007, a Nova Scotia Supreme Court judge sentenced Cooper, now 54, to seven years for two counts of impaired driving causing the deaths of Angela Marie Smits, 19, of Sydney River and her boyfriend, Michael George MacLean, 20, of Albert Bridge. Cooper also received a lifetime driving ban.
Cooper, who pleaded guilty in November 2006, has never been granted parole.
In a recent decision, the Parole Board of Canada — as it has in the past — determined Cooper is too dangerous to release and confirmed an earlier decision that ordered him detained until his sentence ends Jan. 22, 2014.
"The board is satisfied that, if released, you are likely to commit an offence causing the death of or serious harm to another person before the expiration of the sentence you are now serving according to law," the board wrote in a three-page decision.
Cooper’s lack of progress during the past year has been demonstrated by continued rigid thinking that he cannot commit to refraining from impaired driving, the board said.
"Such a stance underscores your high risk to reoffend in a similar manner given your current offences, history of impaired driving and your complete disregard for the consequences of the same, despite being responsible for the untimely deaths of two people," the documents said.
By law, the board is required to review Cooper’s detention order annually. Cooper waived his right to a parole board hearing because he believed the board had already rendered a decision.
Although Cooper does not have a documented history of violence, he has a history of impaired driving and has been assessed as a high risk for reoffending by driving under the influence, the parole board said, referring to a May 2011 initial decision. In February 1988, he was fined $600 for impaired driving.
Cooper, the board has ruled, has taken limited responsibility for his crimes, made threats to his parole officer and admitted to ongoing marijuana use.
"You lacked remorse or empathy for your victims and had no insight into the possible fatal consequences of your actions should you drink and drive," the board said.
"Despite completion of a substance abuse program, you made limited progress and continue to negate a substance abuse problem."
The students were killed instantly when Cooper’s truck crossed the centre line on May 14, 2004, near the River Bourgeois exit on Highway 104, and crashed into their car.
The young couple were heading east for a planned family celebration that weekend, and Cooper was heading west that night to return to his Clevelandarea home after drinking for seven hours at MacBouch Lounge in St. Peter’s, 20 kilometres down the highway.
Tests showed Mr. Cooper’s blood contained three times the legal level of alcohol when he crashed into MacLean’s car at about 11 p.m.
Both vehicles burst into flames. The cremated remains of the young couple were later buried together. Cooper suffered severe burns and a serious head injury.
