Good point.

could you say the same about all the jews north of eglington on bathurst?


Or are you a bigot?

Oh, one day, one day people will know what Islam is.


When that guy said "you see that? THAT is Islam" it really ticked me off. That is NOT Islam. In fact, Islam forbids the VERY ACT that he just did.

What does that have to do with it?

I hate everyone equally. Which some people can't wrap their head around that kind of concept. It isn't my problem that certain people of my religion or any other religion can't figure out how to integrate into western society.

My dads side of the family, did the right thing when they came to Canada before WWI. They integrated into society, which wasn't difficult, seeing we came from Europe and weren't religious. My mom side of the family been living in North America for over 200 years.

So next time you try and accuse me of something, think before. You might get your ass handed to you.

It's hard to wrap our heads around that concept because we only see you complaining about muslims or arabs.

I can say that i somewhat agree with your original point (not as harshly as you portrayed it mind you) but i find it quite amusing that you totally dodged my original question to you.

+1 . Things will probably change there whenever it's in the U.S.'s best interest for things to change there.

Originally posted by nchs09 What does that have to do with it?

It means I'm used to growing up around all groups of people living on top of each other all of the time. It's much harder for me to see any particular group as "outsiders". The neighborhood I live in, for example, is heavily Jewish (hebrew and yiddish speaking only), Chinese, Russian, and Mexican, while the people who run shops in the area are primarily Korean, Indian, Polish, Italian, and Arab.

They all speak how they want, wear what they want, and pray how they want, whether it's specific to their culture or not. If I go too deep into a Chinese neighborhood, I'm sometimes made to feel unwelcome. If I go too deep into a Jewish neighborhood, I'm sometimes made to feel unwelcome, but who gives a fuck! The more I interact with different groups, the more I learn about who they are, and the more I realize that some of them are douchebags, and some of them are perfectly kind/respectful/welcoming, just like every group of people.

Point is, they've got just as much right to tell me I should adopt their culture, as I do to tell them they should adopt mine [i.e. every right, and no right at all].

Originally posted by Spam In a purely philosophical sense... yes, you do. You could grab a knife or gun or whatever and kill some random on the street tomorrow. You could Grand Theft Auto on a busy street corner and kill a whole bunch of people. Sure, you'd probably be punished after the fact, but you still carried out the murder(s), you were still "free" to do as you wished, that is of course, up until you were caught. But your status remains "free" up until the point of capture. Once you're in jail, ask me the same question, and I'll have a very different answer for you

I wasn't talking about freedom as in free will, but as in rights.

But you are right about the philosophical thing. We have in principle freedom to everything that is physically possible to us - but with responsibility.
