And Speaking of Stupid, Failed Policing--Hey, RCMP, You Got Some 'Splainin' To Do!

The Muslim groups are stunned--stunned!--that the RCMP backtracked on support for an anti-radicalization handbook. And, given these groups' clarification re RCMP involvement in the project, one can hardly blame them:

On Wednesday, the National Council of Canadian Muslims (NCCM) also expressed its surprise over the RCMP reaction.

“We have received no clarification from the RCMP regarding which passages they object to. In fact, we had no idea that they had any concerns with the content of the handbook until they issued their statement,” said Ihsaan Gardee, executive director of the NCCM. 

“From the very beginning, this has been a collaborative effort between the RCMP, NCCM, and ISSA. There were many opportunities presented for all parties to vet the contents of the handbook and offer feedback. And we’re still open to any feedback they have.” ...

A collaborative effort, eh? Like I said: really, really shtoopid policing.
