It was staged

EDIT: I may have to retract that claim. Someone pointed me to a site yesterdaty which claimed it was staged, but a quick google suggests the consensus is that it wasn't...

And yet...and yet how important is the truth of the situation? Obviously it's reporting events, and the facts of the situation matter to get an accurate impression of what happened there. And yet...

That photo just pulls me in, makes me feel young and free and ready to stand up and riot and lie on the streets, and comfort those hurt by some riot gear fascists, to kiss and shout. The truth in many ways gets in the way of peoples' emotions and stories, which is why the photo went viral with the wrong facts surrounding it.

I remember seeing that dog on the TV last year during all the riots, didn't realise it was a stray.

The truly weird bit is that it was in [b]Canada [/b]of all places, usually the most boring country on earth.
But then it was about ice hockey, which figures.

Can anyone spot TJ into those Greek riot clips, informing the police that that dog is not under close control, and is violating his human rights? ..... IT's THE LAW!*

* Not really, but he likes to think it is.
