George Carlin again:
"We like to think we've evolved..."
"We're barely out of the jungle on this planet. Barely out of the [f'in] jungle. What we are is semi-civilized beasts with baseball caps and automatic weapons."

Animals will gang up on each other like this. We have the ability to choose and to really decide what to do. And so we decide to first get a tool (a baseball bat in this case) and then organize, so that we can more effectively injure another of our own species.

We learned to build cities, and to defend ourselves from wild predators. Now we turn on each other. Sad, really.

this crap goes on in every town in Ontario. there's skids and drugs everywhere. you always hear about someone getting a beatdown, be it circle-kicks or whatever. fact of the matter is, you never know both sides of the story.

I hope they catch these miserable swarmers. What happened to fighting 1 vs 1? It must have looked like something out of the movie Kids. I find it disgusting to see that such behaviour has migrated to our Canadian cities now. :frown:

I love Canada but I laugh at comments like this. As if Canada is infected by American violence or something. Please...

I never said American. Such tribal behaviour is also common in other places that provide us with numerous immigrants who seem to keep the mentality once they arrive here.

Do you even know if they were immigrants? All it said was a group of black men, and I certainly don't consider that to automatically mean immigrants. Again, what is the basis for you to accuse immigrants of committing these acts? The one that happened here several years ago, where a bunch of kids gave another kid brain damage (it was made in to a TV movie, cant remember the name) was caused by a bunch of white kids, so this has NOTHING to do with race and everything to do with the mob mentality. :roll:

Another horrible incident.

"When in doubt, blame the immigrants?"--since 1820!

Here's a handy chart to make sure you don't fall behind the times:

1820-1870 - Blame the Irish!
1870-1920 - Blame the Chinese!
1920-1950 - There's a war on, give 'em a break
1950-2001 - Blame the Mexicans!
9/11/2001 - Blame the Arabs!

No, I just checked and it was Jonathan Wamback.

Yep. I'm just surprised this came out of Dennis.
