The honesty was way too much
We're all meant to be awfully impressed with songwriter Dan Hill's searing account in Maclean's, of this family's travails at the hands of three black Toronto teens, a siege that went on for years.
Of course, some time within living memory, we'd have all recognized the teens' behaviour as "trespassing" and excused (even lauded) Hill for eventually going Straw Dogs on their asses, sparing his family and the rest of us any further trouble from these incorrigibles.
Alas, this is Toronto in 2008 and we're so much more civilized now...
