Scott Mcintyre might not register a complaint to Police about the beating - but I wonder if the Province (Ministry of Corrections) will? Maybe this is where the OPP has jurisdiction to up the game a bit....
 
Regarding the murder rant video, if it was 'acting' in character in reference to Hogan... methinks he may have taken the method acting a little too far ;)

Rob Ford Must Go@robfordmustgo
Doug Ford just stopped & complimented us on the posters. Said "y'know we could bring 1000 folks down here & cover them up." /CC

Rob Ford Must Go@robfordmustgo"But we won't. We'll let you sit here until October 27th," Doug continued. "We'll be here," we said. He left on elevator. /CC

Yep, as far as I know, Doug Ford ‏@CouncillorFord is as a parody as @TOMayorFrod.

I hope it's a parody! If it's real, things are getting way, way beyond surreal. From the account description:

Ward 2 councillor, dad, husband, brother to @TOMayorFord. We're real, rough around the edges but perfect for Toronto! #TOpoli #parody #FordNation #FordMoreYears

(Emphasis added. And yeah, I've been caught by this one more than once. :p)

Not my point. My point is that Rob loves the media hounding, and having a 100 reporters at City Hall simultaneously feeds both his ego and his claim of martyrdom, all while accomplishing nothing.

That's fair, and I agree. Though, I believe he would do that with any scenario. The media just happens to be the more potent form. He believes that if he just keeps pushing forward, everyone will forget the crack elephant in the room. There is a certain percentage of the population that will always fall for it, given the right variables. While Ford may be playing to these people in the media, it is not a viable strategy for the number of supporters he will need in this election. If he didn't burn so many bridges, and had played his cards a lot smarter, it "might" have worked for him. He won't deal with the media, because they are rightly not letting him walk past the elephant in the room. Convenient for him if they let him, he wants to move past it. Since the media won't let him, he is ultimately screwed. So, he can try and spin off the media all he wants, or believe he's so awesome, but as long as they are there, he'll never get elected.

I spoke with Paymans family months ago. Ford is lying. And he's on crack in vid.

Maybe, but I don't buy that this was shot at Payman's house as MacIntyre's lawsuit suggests. The interior of the home in the video has nice furniture, hardwood floors, art on the wall and fresh flowers on a nicely set table. That type of house doesn't exactly match the profile of a low-income slob/thug like Payman. Not by a mile.

I don't doubt that Ford ordered a hit on MacIntyre and that Aboodowleh was somehow involved, but I think lies are lies being told on both sides as far as the video is concerned.
