Those racist homicidal Albertans...

...are at it again...Wait a minute...

"Sharif -- who was born in Iraq and moved to Canada in 1993 -- was arrested at a north Edmonton apartment Jan. 19, 2011."

The thing is, in my circle of friends, what makes anyone Canadian is a sense of "shared values"... as opposed to a piece of paper generated by a political agenda. Apparently, for our intrepid reporter, the man's mailing address is more significant than his cultural and religious affiliations.

As Kate at SDA would say... let me fix that headline for you...Dear MSM... this guy is about as Canadian as Gamil Gharbi. Obfuscation like this is why the dead tree media is dying.

Yet another aboriginal child...

...sacrificed on the altar of political correctness. The National Post, in it's journalistic wisdom, attempts to legitimise the fever dreams of a desperately ill 11 year-old child.

Tragically, the outcome... exactly as predicted by the wily white man's medical experts... well... she's dead.

So sad. So unnecessary.

"When Makayla ended her chemotherapy treatments last May, she said it was because Jesus visited her in hospital and told her she was already healed."

Coincidentally, Makayla's parents are evangelical Christian pastors. We should move on, though... obviously, this tragedy can't be laid at the door of religion or culture. That wouldn't be Canadian.

CONSIDER THE LAW:

"It’s not such an ass as to provide a constitutional entitlement to the aromatherapy, wheatgrass enemas, acupuncture and naturopathic massage sessions offered to cancer sufferers at $18,000 a customer by the DIZZY WHITE PEOPLE at the notorious Hippocrates Health Institute of West Palm Beach, Florida."

Really, that's the culpable party here... the "dizzy white people" in Florida? Were these nefarious unstable caucasians relentlessly cold-calling random folk here in Brantford, Ontario? That seems unlikely. Could it be that Makayla's parents sought them out? Perish the thought.

What about the hundreds of members of the “Makayla Defence Force” who were prepared to "physically intervene" to prevent actual medical treatment? I thought assisting a suicide was a criminal offense in Canada.

A couple of questions... if Jesus had already zapped the cancer, why the wheatgrass enemas... (more to the point, is Canadian wheatgrass so sub-par that you wouldn't consider funnelling it up your nether parts?) I'm also curious whether the Canadian healthcare system ponied up for this cross border bowel cleansing. As for aboriginal rights, will there now be a Royal Commission on shaman based healthcare?

LAST WORD: Not a new problem

"The average death rate on reserves for the decade ending in 2002 was more than seven times the national average."

And...

"The rate of deaths from injuries is 3 to 4 times higher for Aboriginal children than for other children in Canada."

I got nuthin'.

Debate? Debate?

Isn't that one of those "white privilige" deals where you actually have to answer questions? Count me out, baby.**********

POP QUIZ BONUS ROUND:

Which lushly self-described civil rights warrior was a paid FBI snitch in the 1980s?

Spoken like a part-time drama teacher

Hang on a second. Wasn't there some other Trudeau who did find a use for Canadian soldiers? I know... let's ask Quebec.**********

OTTAWA – Prime Minister Stephen Harper made it clear that if ISIS terrorists fire at Canadian troops, “we’re going to fire back and we’re going to kill them.”

I know who I'm voting for.

Where stereotypes come from

Although it's possible that being killed for your "bling" is more of a caricature...

TORONTO - Mohammed and a friend — a man wearing a “tremendous amount of expensive gold jewelry” — visited the restroom where they were attacked by three men who tried to snatch the friend’s chains, homicide Det.-Sgt. Gary Giroux said about a week after the slaying. “A violent struggle ensued” and Mohammed helped his friend break free from his assailants, Giroux said.

The two pals headed to the front of the restaurant, which was filled with upwards of 60 patrons at the time. The attackers followed, gunfire erupted and Mohammed was killed.

Marcus Gibson, 22, and Ceyon Carrington, 28, both of Toronto, are now each charged with first-degree murder and other related offences, police said.

Which raises the question... is it racism... IF IT'S FACTUAL?

Blacks are about 14% of US population; but young black men are about 13% of the total black population. So, 13 X 14 = 1.82, less than 2% of our population commits more than half of all American gun murders.

If this math is correct it is truly mind-boggling.

THE SELF-INFLICTED INJURY FILES:

"Sure, Martin Luther King Jr. didn’t explicitly say he had a dream that one day your cousin Mooney could get crunk in any establishment regardless of color in his famous speech, but that’s still a part of being free. (…) Why not put on those red bottoms you worked so hard to get and drop it low in the name of progress?"

Free at last.
