TORONTO - Toronto police say more than a dozen of their uniforms have been stolen from various dry cleaners over the past few days.

The thefts come less than two weeks before world leaders are to meet at the G20 Summit in downtown Toronto on June 26-27.

Toronto police are part of a massive security effort being organized around the summit.

The G8 and G20 summits are less than 2 weeks away. I hope this article is in error.

1. Not a very good coincedence, if it was just someone grabbing laundry.

Methinks it's time for Toronto Police to make a quick change to the uniforms on the QT.

2. Only fair. The RCMP likes to dress up as protesters....

Remember Ottawa?

4. It's statements like this that leave me scratching my head

Let's put aside the fact that you seem to have opened your mouth without even knowing that there's a difference between the toronto police and the RCMP, and the fact that the RCMP provocateurs were in Quebec, not Ottawa. How exactly is the fact that police uniforms have been stolen weeks before a large number of democratically elected leaders meet in one place, "only fair"?

6. You're right. It was Quebec. My Bad...

9. I imagine many people feel their own actions are both

I imagine many people feel their own actions are both justified by and predicated on the actions of others and believe that to be "fair."

3. Well, that can't be good.

7. "dozen of their uniforms have been stolen from various dry cleaners over the past few days."

Well, there's a billion dollars shot up the ass...

8. An absolutely brilliant retort. Thge line "The best laid plans of mice and men

go oft awry" has never been truer. Over a billion dollars for a THREE effing day meeting and uniforms get stolen. Let's see how much rectifying that security foul-up is going to cost.
