I just heard/read some bullshit about how racist Canada is, and I'm just friggin outraged. The whole story stems from something about rappers, and how Canada hates them and blames them for all the violence and shit in bigger cities.
I just thought I'd bring this topic up, and just how outraged I am. Here's a fact. Only 7% of Canada is admittedly racist, or so I've heard. We are one of the least racist countries in the world. And to see someone besmirching the good name of my country does nothing but boils my blood.
Its all about how Canada gives american stars hard times at the borders and stuff like that. I wanna hear your comment, and maybe you can vote on the poll. I wanna know whose with me, and whose just as appalled by this as me. And just so you know, I absolutely will not snap at anyone for having differing comments.
If I can I'll find the article. They have Oprah Winfrey...and flipping PARIS HILTON testifying against Canada...I mean...WTF?!

Well um, everyone's a rittle bit lacist... sometimes. It's a fact of life and well... personally I just don't care anymore. The only time I care is if some white trash goes off to kill some black folk or vice versa or... yeah. It just doesn't have to be black or white folk, its other people too. Yeah I hate the violence and all that. And um I've NEVER heard of Canadians being racist, all I know is that Canadian mounties look hot in red uniform, rawr.

Thank you Kaoru and I agree whole-heartedly. No one is completely flawless in that matter. I am admittedly guilty of making a racist comment or two. But I have never ever EVER directed such a comment in hatred towards another human being. Its this accusation that makes it seem like Canada's a huge racist melting pot, that just makes me so angry.
Lmao about the mounties. Them buggers are like....tough...and no-nonsense. ^^

Paris Hilton, huh?....Like her testimony's gonna matter! Oprah might be a problem though since people listen to her and practically worship her x-x. ANNNNYWAYS, while I don't like rap, I don't think it has much to do with violence....well...to normal people. And people need to realize that in places where lots of people are in close proximity, like a city, there's going to be violence and racism no matter what kind of music people are listening too or what country they live in. x-x As Kaoru said, it's a fact of life, it's unavoidable and is bound to happen. Eh, I wouldn't worry about it too much, whoever started this 'racism' thing kind of reminds me of Jack Thompson, and he always gets laughed at and called a dumb-ass by everybody....including me...yeah... Canada racist as a country....riiiiiiiiiiight (SARCASM)

Yeah we have mounties AND regular police. But the mounties only come in when we're short on regulars, or for big events that need lots of gaurding. Mounties are harsh man, they're waaaay worse then the regular po-po.

Canada is not rascist my dear friend Blitzy, you heard that from some stuck up americans who think they pwn the damn world. I hate those types of people, I call them IDIOTS. I love Canada, and Mexico, and France, and Britainy (though they're a little bland) and especially Norway and Scottland. In fact, America is like a huge fort, and as all forts do, it will eventually fall, and so, therefore, I want to purchase land in the Northwestern Territory of Canada, or perhaps even east Alaska, to be out of the way of the god damn bombs. Canada is better than america in lots of ways, but their gun restriction laws are still oppressive.
On the rap issue, I personally have a taste for oldschool rap, but I don't believe in music promoting violence. Rap is a form of expression, though most songs in any genre are almost the same thing nowadays, so I support it, like all harmless forms of expression. HUMAN NATURE decrees the people always look for a scapegoat, NO MATTER WHO'S FAULT IT IS. Even something as vague as a music genre or game genre or something. EVEN AS VAGUE AS DRAWING BLOODY WOLVES, which I almost got in trouble over at one point today. Believe me, if everything went by the EXACT RULES OF GOVERNMENT AND SOCIETY life. would. be. BORING AS ALL HELL.
Now about giving stars a hard time at the border, I really don't care, I'd give stars a hard time because they freakin' dictate the goddamn news. All I heard about for a week was PARIS HILTON THIS PARIS HILTON THAT. You don't know how bad I hate hearing about celebrities. THEY'RE NOT EVEN REAL PEOPLE THEY'RE WORSHIPPED FOR BEING SOMEONE ELSE. Oprah, well, is like a dog trainer that trains humans, and so is Dr. Phil, but they're damn cool to watch to see how stupid the world gets and how the THOUSANDS of fools go to the few smart people for help.
lol, Canada is not rascist, I LOVE CANADIA. I want to live there SO SO BAD

Thank you all for your support on the matter. But remeber about the gun-laws. Here, you dont really need em as bad. I mean, yeah, there's still crime. But me and my family feel safe enough that we dont need a gun in our house. =)

Blitz, in america a normal hunter has three rifles, four pistols, crates of amunition, twelve bows, seven knives, and seven to eight scopes. In Canada, a good hunter has a rifle, several scopes and such. Well, the thing is, if you want to live off the land but have enough rifles so that you can keep up with game year-round, you don't want to have to go all the way to the goddamn city to register EVER. ONe. OF. YOUR. RIFLES. AND. PISTOLS.
I'm a gun fanatic, lol. But, Blitzy, no matter where you go in this day and age, you NEED a gun, even if its to the freakin' cleanist, most well organized, semaritan town. No matter how small or big, whether there's people or not you need a gun.
