I have seen footage on news of people,including black
people,looting...What's that hard to understand...So this topic
has no point,since the article was not racist,but to the
point:New Orleans under water,people looting and shooting and etc...

One of them? There is mass looting going on, with even guns being stolen. People have been shot and injured already. But no one is going to be killed for looting bread ( I hope)
Even people carting away whole shelves of Cola are being aloud to do so!

Because if you look at the statistics- its amazing the percentage of Blacks that break the law in some way (or are in jail) is Ten-fold of other races- I think that has a lot to do with it.

Its pretty bad. I think its partly an effect of poverty and anger, but there is still no justification.

Oooh boy! Tony's going to love this one!

No.I agree,with most of it (although "its amazing the percentage of Blacks that break the law in some way (or are in jail) is Ten-fold of other races" appears to be logically innacurate as I have seen similar figures for hispanics)
I'm not unreasonable.I have a problem with the mindset that says black person = threat.
Of course it is poverty and neglect that makes black people into criminals.
Look at the history of the USA (an example not an attack). At one time Irish,Italians,Jews have all been the main focus of criminal activity.All at the time when they were bottom of the pile.Now it is blacks and hispanics.Only when there is true social equality will this problem suffice.Poor people steal goods,rich people dont pay taxes.Same as it ever was.

And I am not frightened of dying, any time will do, I
don't mind. Why should I be frightened of dying?
There's no reason for it, you've gotta go sometime.
I never said I was frightened of dying.

Americans complaining of racism...what next...the Afrikaaners didn't exploit the blacks, the Australians didn't prejudice against the aborigines.....the Americans didn't try to wipe out the indigenous indians?

Agreed, Im not moving (even if ottawa is literally a 10 minute walk from where I live). Ive lived here all my life, just because my primary language is english im not hauling over to ottawa, where rent is nearly double what is payed over here.

When I was a kid, race issues were about who ran the fastest. AHH, the good old days!

Yet, paradoxically, your sig is a separatist, nationalist, "pur laine" slogan....
|
Well, If Québec want to separate, it's not because we are racist toward english canadian... 
|
it is still not a very harmonic signature
|
Maybe, but no point with racism or anithing like that...
|
|
Vive le Québec libre!...
