Earlier this week, Tibollo was asked whether his government would completely ban carding, or street checks, by police. Tibollo began his response by saying that he had gone with police on a late night ride in the Jane-Finch community wearing a bulletproof vest to places where there had been bullet-ridden bodies.

Tibollo stopped short of apologizing Thursday, but he explained that he is new to politics and was making an effort to understand real peoples concerns, including those of victims living in that community.

He accused the NDP of being more interested in public opinion than public safety.

Personal opinion: Horwath could stand to slow her roll just a little, but I get the idea that "Hey I'm going to X neighborhood, I'm wearing a vest" was a bad way of saying "I asked to check out some crack houses and the police required that I wear this for safety".

Meh, there's probably some context I'm unaware of, as her issue seems to be with comments he made rather than the fact that he wore the vest

A Toronto Police spokesman said officers do a safety evaluation when bringing a civilian along, and usually err on the side of caution when determining whether a bulletproof vest should be offered.

There isn't. That's just the M.O. of leftist parties: to see racism/sexism and/or *phobias where there isn't any.

There is no special context. Tibollo took a ride in a police car to a crime-scene and was wearing a bullet-proof vest as is standard operating procedure, and the leftist New Democratic Party leader tried to call out the fact that he was wearing a vest as racist.
