Like what industries? :unsure:

No there wasn't a kick, that's been debunked from what I've read.

I'm not sure what you were reading, because I've seen no evidence to the contrary while I have seen pictures of the officer, standing one-footed over the body in what appears to be a decidedly kicky looking pose.  

The other relevant fact is that the guy was something like 20 feet away with his back turned while he was shot, and still running.

Yes, I've seen the same picture, I haven't seen any actual video.  It was explained as the officer stepping over in mid stride.  If there was a kick, somebody should have the video shouldn't they?

And just like Italians and Irish, today's immigrants bring their culture with them. 

I wish that Canada would accept more Irish and Italians, and more people from Western countries as new immigrants to Canada. If someone immigrates to another country then they should not be allowed to practice their culture, language and religion anywhere outside in Canada. If they want to practice their culture at home well go for it.. Just keep it at home. What the hell did you come to Canada for if you still want to practice your culture here in Canada anyway? Ridiculous indeed. 

I thought that most of those new immigrants were wanting to get away from their countries culture and problems because it was so bad there. But it would appear as though that was not the case. Their aim was to just to get here, and then knowing Canada, they will be allowed to carry on business as usual as to what they practiced in their old country. If a country will not try to protect and preserve it's own culture and language and religion then it will fail as a country and it will soon become no more because the other foreign cultures that do come to Canada will eventually wipe your culture pretty much out of existence.

I see no more real and true Western nationalist or patriotic Canadians anymore. I only now see politically correct cowards and wimps who are only concerned about themselves. There appears to be no real love or loyalty nor interest in Canada anymore. The Canada of sixty years ago is now pretty much long gone. The Western people of this country will soon find themselves as a minority in their own western homeland, and I can guarantee them that they are not going to like it.. Sadly, our grandchildren will suffer the consequences of this foolish attitude of screw Canada by Western Canadians. 

I get pizzed off when I see my tax dollars going towards promoting multiculturalism/diversity and the promotion of other languages, cultures, and religions in Canada. If a new immigrant puts up a sign outside of his store in his/her own foreign language, well that is an insult to me. I do not speak your language so why do you put your language up on your store sign? Sadly, as Canada becomes more multicultural and diverse the worse this country will become.  Aw well. :(

Public Service. 

I would like to see the public service at all three levels of government cut in half. That would save the taxpayer's hundreds of billions of their tax dollars every year from going down the drain, and paying some public servant to make our lives more miserable. The more government we get the more problems we get along with more and higher taxes, more rules and regulations/red tape and less freedom. The government "IS" the bloody problem, and never the solution. They create a problem, and then try to pretend that they are going to fix it.

But yet it would appear as though most dumb ass Canadians think and want more government in their crummy lives. The one thing that I can tell those fools is that communism is not the way to go. All of our Canadian three levels of governments are prime examples of communism in action and at work. In Canada today, I feel like I have very little freedom left, and what little freedom that I have left is slowly being taken away from me. But lefty's like you just love it, right?  ;)

I think all public unions should be reformed.

I do really think that all three levels of government in Canada are in need of being reformed. Our politicians have all made a bloody mess of just about everything in this gawd forsaken country. As governments grow bigger and bigger in Canada my freedoms are becoming less and less. There are so many laws and orders and way too many rules and regulation and red tape that it is a wonder that anything can get done in Canada anymore with anyone wanting to start up a business.

To open a business in Canada these days one has to go thru so many hoops of government bureaucracies to try and start their businesses. Canada could and would not be a country today if there were this many rules and regulations and red tape and so many laws and orders and taxes in it's beginning if we had the bureaucracy that we have today. For Canada to be able to see it's full potential we must all demand for more freedom, less government/bureaucracy, and less taxes. Otherwise?  :unsure:

So, just why do you give a bloody dam as to what happened to this black guy that got shot anyway? Was he related to you by chance? I fail to see as to why most Canadians like you always want to have your say as to what goes on in and with American affairs. I find that most Canadians are nothing more than a bunch of nosy busy bodies who seem to care more about what goes on in America than what goes on in their own country or the rest of the world. Some Canadians kids. :unsure:

Yes, so we'll wait and see how it turns out.  I suspect that they're not really keen on showing a gun shot victim lying on the ground on video...it's dark and unpleasant but we'll see.  You may be right, but then your own question comes back.  If there wasn't a quick, the video would clearly demonstrate this and the DA wouldn't make the claim, or at least I hope he wouldn't.  Lawyers aren't usually idiots and watch what they say, but they're far from infallible.

But not all cultures are good. And the people who are most determined to shut down all discussion of it are the vultures of the immigration industry, the immigration lawyers and 'advisors' who make their living off ever growing numbers of immigrants and have zero concern with either the immigrants they represent or the well-being of Canadians.

Here's an excellent discussion of the George Floyd issue and of police violence and racism. It provides the information we so seldom get from the media and goes completely against the media narrative and that of the shrill progressives who hate police and who see racism everywhere. It reminds me of a columnist somewhere who said that television has long gotten to the point where they assume their audience is only interested in thirty or sixty second sound bytes. Yet internet interviews and discussions, sometimes lasting hours, draw millions, and even tens of millions of viewers. I suspect the number of people who know they're not getting the real story by watching or reading the mainstream media is much larger than anyone previously suspected. Certainly there's a thirst for intelligent discussion of national issues that people aren't seeing in the mainstream media.

Who’s they?  Wasn’t the event captured on video by several members of the public?  But yes, I’m sure at point the investigation will get to the bottom of it.  Regardless, it’s a safe bet that if you’re gonna drive drunk, fail field sobriety tests, resist arrest, fight with officers, take their weapons, and use it against them, bad things can happen.  This situation is nothing like the George Floyd incident.  Some of you are trying to portray it as such.  Shame on you.

Exactly.  Apparently we’re suppose to believe that cultures abroad that bring extreme traditions of sexism, homophobia, racism, anti-semitism, etc are traditions we need added to our Canadian culture.

Ah, but we HAVE no culture - except, of course, for Quebec, whose sacred culture we must all admire and worship without question, for they are a NATION!

But we're not. According to our very own prime minister Canada is not even a nation. And has no core identity, and has no mainstream. So why would anyone care about subsuming it in a massive wave of foreigners? Quebec can take steps to protect its culture, including cutting back immigration. But let any anglo dare to suggest such a thing and the shrill voices of the Left start howling about racism and xenophobia and bigotry. To these people the wonderful enlightened culture of Afghanistan and Pakistan make wonderful additions to our own! No doubt we can learn a lot from them.

The cultures and values of the Irish and Italians weren't that different from the culture which prevailed in Canada. Certainly they were far more in tune with the Canada they came to than the cultures and values of Pakistan or India or China or Nigeria are to the Canada of today.

Here's an excellent discussion of the George Floyd issue and of police violence and racism. 

 

The reason why there's "a huge issue of police violence and racism in America" is because people like these will never be allowed to show their faces on CNN, MSNBC, CTV or CBC. 

If they allow a POC to address these topics, in this manner, on those stations, at best you'll get someone far less eloquent than these guys who never really gets a chance to speak, and they'll inevitably be shouted down by 'progressives' for being an "Uncle Tom". And that's on-camera. Off-camera people like this are called 'porch niggas' by the oh-so-righteous progressives. 

It really seems to me as though the people who just pay lip service to black people, but really want to harm them, are the Dems/Libs.

1) Maybe there's a really good reason why the longest-serving Senator ever for the Dems was a former Grand-Dragon of the KKK. 

2) 38% of the "right to choose" deaths (abortions) are black. 86% are minorities. 14% are white. https://www.guttmacher.org/infographic/2017/abortion-rates-race-and-ethnicity Dems pimp abortion like the greatest thing since sliced bread. 

3) Dems advocate for the removal of police, defunding the police, etc. NYC homicides peaked at 2,245 before Mayor Dinkins era, when the murders finally started declining.They went down to 1,561 in his 4 years, a 30% decrease. In 8 years under Giuliani they went from 1177 down to 587, another 50% decline.

Quote

The greatest beneficiaries of that crime drop have been minorities. More than 10,000 minority males are alive today in New York who would have been dead if the city's homicide rate had remained at its early 1990s levels.

That sort of sounds like conspiracy bullshit - except it's not.

Soledad O'Brien tweeted Saturday that a CNN executive had expressed an opinion about a certain individual being the wrong type of black person.
"This is an interesting read. Reminds me of the cnn exec who told me: “Roland Martin isn’t the ‘right kind of’ Black person.” She didn’t want me to book him on my show," O'Brien tweeted. "Charles Blow, she told me, (also a frequent guest) was ‘the right kind of Black,’" O'Brien said in another tweet. 
https://justthenews.com/accountability/media/soledad-obrien-alleges-cnn-exec-made-comments-regarding-right-kind-black

One of the people in the discussion above made a point which made sense. He said there is a large gulf between the views of black people and the views of the so-called representatives of black people. As evidence, he said, that if the activists and BLM and the like really represented the views of black Americans then Joe Biden would most definitely not have won the Democratic nomination.

"They" are the lawyers involved.  I don't think people got cellphone videos this time.  Most of the footage is from a Wendy's security cam, as far as I know.  

Though I'll agree this situation is VERY different from the George Floyd incident, and not nearly as clear cut, I'd turn it around and say shame on you for.  The officer shot a man in the back who was running to escape and nearly 20 feet away already.  

I think you are right about the kick though.  I think that was a poorly interpreted photo and they have video of pretty much the entire incident and I don't see any kick.

Almost none.

Muslims are 1% of the population and they've done lots of terrorist attacks.

When we go through airport security that's not because of Christians or white people or Buddhists. When they put cement barricades around Christmas markets s that trucks can get in to kill people that's not because of black people or Asians or Hindus. 

Where do you see the government taking direct action to stop white people from doing mass killings?When was the last time you thought "If we don't put security here them crackers will just massacre people!" Where is that security in place Boges?

You know all this. Don't act like it's news.
