I was earlier motivated by the similarity of the posts by this fellow and those of that airysappy guy to check if they were one and the same.

Apparently they're not, which is a bit disturbing somehow.

And again, please tell me they don't let you carry a gun. This is scary.

Don't worry. I think EI has a limit. He will soon actually have to spend his time working.

What a Racist thing to say......how does one look a certain race? Please explain without further showing what you are :rolleyes:

I guess according to your statement, everyone that is British would only look Caucasian then? I am sure have heard the BNP make a similar comment in the past:thumbdown:

"Race" is a cultural construct used to group people by physical characteristic so, yes, people do look caucausian, African, whatever. Racism is the attribution of non-physical characteristics to the people having a set of physical characteristics "black men can't swim" is racist "black men are black" is not.

"Irish" is not, of course, a race but a nationality, Melinda does not look like an Irish passport holder, compared to other European countries Ireland has a very small population of people of colour.

If they do ever let you have a gun, do you think you could point it at the flying shoveller?

You managed to dance around it realizing your bigoted comment. Again you managed to bring my occupation into the conversation, whilst trying to cover up your comments...weak attempt really :rolleyes:

"Melinda does not look like an Irish passport holder", but everyone in the UK and Canada looks like passport holders from those countries? :rolleyes:

I hope you don't work at the CBSA, because your comments are right up there with the BNP's. :thumbdown: It's a good thing your comments don't reflect that of everyone I know in Guelph.

And if you don't want your claimed occupation mentioned at every turn, take down the image of GI Joe.

*sigh* you are pathetic. Again...does every born and bred Canadian look like a Canadian passport holder? If you haven't got a solid answer to your comment, don't bother replying :rolleyes:

An sure the bubble you live in, is very cosy.
