Michael Hardner Posted December 18, 2025 Report Posted December 18, 2025 Adding: What percentage our population growth do you think has come from Afghanistan immigration since 2000 ? As a percentage of overall population growth, how many were born there and came here ?

But there is still a wrongdoing by a small minority attributed to the whole. I'm talking meta here. 1. You can't get too wide with Islam. It needs to stay in the Middle East where it belongs - let the tribes wipe each other out in their own territories. 2. But the small wrong doings in Catholicism and the BSA don't compare to Islam's beheadings, public executions and invasions. And I'm not even sure that all the ME leaders aren't terrorists themselves.

CdnFox Posted December 18, 2025 Report Posted December 18, 2025 6 hours ago, Michael Hardner said: Yes, the response is understandable. But people need to understand that a murder committed by a foreigner (as opposed to terrorism) doesn't say anything about the people. Leaders who trump up such crimes are doing it to gain political attention, IMO. And what you people need to understand is that it is actually quite true that some foreigners are more likely to commit some crimes. Or in fact have other traits which may be positive. Generally speaking an American who moves to Canada is more likely to want to have the right to own guns than a person moving here from Japan. Well you can't translate that to the individual you absolutely can make that statement about the group. It's not even racial, it's cultural more or less Groups from certain parts of the world are vastly more likely to participate in honor killings then the average natural canadian. That's simply true. groups coming here from certain parts of the world right at the moment are more likely to be accepting a violence and hostility towards Jews. Prove me wrong. So in fact that does have to be taken into account when you're looking at immigration. The problem with you and your type is that you make statements based on ideology but simply don't hold up with real-world experience. And in the real world we do decrease the likelihood of violence and crime by limiting immigration from certain locations. 1 Quote "That which doesn't kill me... Had better start running."

Brainwashing? lol. "Diversity is our strength". That slogan is straight out of 1984, has been regurgitated all over the West like a mantra. Liberal institutions have been pushing insane levels of anti-White guilted propaganda for decades, targeted at indoctrinating the young as their nations were flooded and their futures stolen. This is a coup. Young White men have been robbed of their inheritance, a culture, and sense of identity. They were sold out by traitorous boomers who got theirs, idealistic useful idi0ts, and thrown under a bus by rabid wokewashed White women. Edited December 18, 2025 by CDN1 Quote

Studies show that domestics are worse in some measures. Again, that's your own weak, flawed perception of the world. We have how many terrorist attacks in Canada from these populations: latinos blacks Chinese Hindus Ukrainians Philippinos Catholics Russians Sikhs Koreans Vietnamese Japanese Does that list have 1.5M people on it? Probably closer to 15M. Do they have 30 terrorists among them in the last 25 years? Probably zero. I don't know of a single one. Ten times as many people, but zero terrorist attacks compared to 30. Let's pretend that they have 1, so that it's not a division by zero equation... ten x as many people with 1/30th the number of terrorists would = 1/300th the incidence of terrorists in their populations. But it's not even 1/300th the rate, it is infinitesimally smaller than that. We don't spend 50 bucks a year on preventing Mexican terrorism. We don't even spend 50 bucks a year on preventing black terrorism, and our MSM tells blacks that white people hate them all the time. When was the last time you looked around to see how many blacks there were in the airport before you got on a plane? MH, you're no different from a Nazi supporter. When Hitler was rising to power, and people all around Mike Himmdler back in 1935 were telling him about the warning signs that were all around, Herr MH was saying: But Hitler enacted gun-control legislation to keep us safe from each other! Hitler created the Health Passport, aka gesundheitspass, that keeps us safe from covid and the other diseases carried by the racists and misogynists! Hitler controls the flow of disinformation by burning bad books and by kicking people off the internet for saying "BSL4 lab" or "Hunter Laptop"! We finally have a leader with full control of the CBC and all of the other German media outlets, to make sure that we only hear the truth! We finally have a leader who isn't afraid to have peaceful protesters beaten down in the streets! We finally have a leader who allows hate rallies on the streets of Ottawa and Berlin! Honestly, the next time you shake your head while thinking about "how people got caught up following Hitler", look in your f'ing mirror, MH. "Ignoring blatant f'ing warning signs" is your superpower.
