Put them all on a boat. Make the conditions uncomfortable. I don’t give a shit.
I’m talking about the violence. There’s some lucid commentary over here as well.
Now, let’s be sure of what we’re saying here. Think of gang violence in Cowtown or Toronto or Montreal and what nationalities do you think of? Vietnamese, Jamaican or Sri Lankan, and Haitian. Certainly not “Canadian”.
That’s not racism, nor is it rhetoric. It is the facts. And the fact is, these fucks are animals. They deserve to be sent back from whence they came. Political correctness be damned.
And I’ll go one further: If they were born here, revoke their citizenship and send them back anyways. And send their parents too. Can’t parent your kids? Don’t know a gangsta from the Sopranos on the fuckin’ tube? Tough shit, you lose. Please gamble on another country.
This has got to be a nation that immigrants not only want to come to, but also want to become a part of. There are many stories of trials and tribulations, and of the overcoming of adversity. My parents were European immigrants after the war, and trust me when I say that I know how difficult things can be. Not everyone chooses to be a victim, or chooses to become disenfranchised.
Not fair to punish immigrants who don’t have a monopoly on violence? First off, I dispute that. But even so, I think that immigrants have a greater duty to fit in and become a part of our society in a functioning and meaningful way. I personally know Sri Lankans, Blacks, Vietnamese, Chineses, Indians, Sihks, and other nationalities who have done so, and who are proud and significant members of society.
To those who aren’t, I have no problem saying “kindly fuck off and go swim home”.
Wank wank wank wank…
Just to establish the tone of this place, I offer this up: Masturbate for Peace.
Check it out. Starts today. I think it works for both men and women, but I wouldn’t really know much about the latter.
Flash: Calgary single mom of 4 gets swindled of $230000.
So you get an “email” from a “lawyer” from South Africa saying you “won” a lottery. You remember, the one you didn’t even enter. What do you do?
Well duh, send over 230 large to try to snag them winnings.
From the CTV News site:
The “lawyer”, who sent it, gained her trust over several months with official looking documents, websites, frequent e-mails and phone calls.
“We started talking about family, the kids, vacation planning the kids would go on safari,” says the scam’s victim.
“Whenever I’d say I didn’t have the money, he’d say trust in God, I’ll pray for you, this is god’s money meant for you.”
Um.. DOH!
So in the efforts of saving other Calgarians from similar hurt, CP offers up these “thinking points”.
1. They don’t call you, you call them. It’s up to you to notice if you’ve won.
2. You can’t win foreign lotteries. Usually.
3. They don’t care about your kids, vacations, or family life. Be scared if they do.
4. Trust nothing to God. If He really wants you to win something, He’ll find a way.
Oh and this is kind of sweet: She’s interested in starting a support group for people that have been victimized by fraud.
We have an idea… how about charging the first ten clients $23000 each?
K, now; the hockey team has been chosen. They’ve decided to go with experience and depth rather than youth and energy. Fine. On the whole, should work.
But still… Berstupizzi on the team? Gimme a fuckin’ break here. The guy’s an idiot. Goon. Gorilla with half the grey power. Not a very nice guy. Remember, you heard it here first.
Bertuzzi – you suck, but the Canadian Olympic Committee gets to make the final decision, looks like. I bet they say you suck too. And although Crosby might not be ready just yet, arguably Phaneuf is.
And what about Spezza? From the CBC Sports site:
Crosby isn’t only young, highly-touted player forced to stay home. Neither Jason Spezza nor Eric Staal earned spots on the squad. Most pundits predicted at least one would be heading to Turin, Italy.
Staal leads the NHL with 24 goals and Spezza has been a catalyst for the high-scoring Ottawa Senators. Both, along with Toronto Maple Leafs defenceman Bryan McCabe, will be the team’s alternates in case of injury.
Here’s the entire roster, once again courtesy of the CBC. Comments? Criticisms? If you’re a Vancouver fan, keep it witty, or I’ll spam your ass.
Heh – I’m liking this blog thingy.
… and the pundit is provoked to post.
Call this a snarky, opinionated, irreverent, and in-yer-face overview of Calgary and what’s happening in and around CowTown.
I had been meaning to try out this blogging thing for a while now (no, seriously – everyone’s doing it) but I’m super busy, and didn’t think I had the time. Well, the holidays are upon us, and since things are slowing down a bit, I find myself with some downtime to nurture the inner geek.
A couple of recent events have prodded me (like a cattle prod) to do something to try to dissipate some of that incredulous rage I’m feeling about a thing or two.
Well, perhaps rage is a little harsh.
Like choices for the Olympic hockey team. But more on that later. For now, see if you enjoy the drivel I’m spouting.
Hey but after today, the days get longer! Yippeee!
