That's the point: you didn't "just" respond, you went off the deep end, babbling almost incoherently about everything that you perceived was wrong with his post.

And now you're doing the same with me.

You're like that drunk guy who wants to fight anyone who looks at him sideways (whether they do or not).

being a white dude from the interior, it was sure an experience walking down granville trying to find the *right* club to go to on a friday night in the summer

walked into one that had a $15 cover and the ENTIRE place was brown dudes giving us the "wtf are you doing here" eyes

we didnt even stay for a drink because the vibes were so sketchy

ended up hitting lamplighter the next night and had a great time, but we musta tried 6 differnt clubs the friday and then my one buddy almost got into an altercation with like 6 asian dudes in a burger king before we jsut gave up and caught the bus back to my friends place in richmond

Wow! Lols, seriously?

I don't do the whole clubbing scene, but I always just assumed it was a pretty mixed bag for race distribution. I kinda thought that some clubs were heavily favored by certain races, but this is actually kinda news to me.

Actually, I never even saw the appeal of clubs. Can somebody explain that to me?? I much prefer hanging out with friends, everything from run down pubs like The Cambie to nicer places like Chill Winston. Maybe it's cause I like to eat.

who gives a fuck? its a club in vancouver. why waste your money here, save it for vegas where you get treated good for spending money, rather than getting a dirty look from everyone.

"You often end up in a situation where it's one person's word against another," says Eby. "We often ask ourselves 'What possible benefit would someone have with bringing forward a complaint of racism or discrimination?' Especially given the potential recriminations they could face in their employment or at home."

Are you fistfucking me? What benefit? How about lawsuits, under the table payoffs from companies to keep their mouth shut, free shit, pity from others for being the "victim."
Thats like saying why would some girl accuse Kobe of rape if it didn't happen? Not that its fact that neither happened, but when you accuse someone of doing you wrong, there is very often something to be gained..

As an EI male I too stay away from large groups of EI males.

First time in a long time I went out to Surrey last night. I met with a friend of mine at some bar in South South nd I see this group of 15 EI guys who must have been in their late 20's, early 30's talking really loud and been obnoxious during the Canucks game. So as the game ended, this one guy starts going ape shit and talking about how he owns farms and how his Bentley was parked outside and it was the most expensive car in the lot and blah blah, yes he did have a Bentley GT.

So I glance over and I can tell other people sitting around them were looking for the waitress to get their bills and I could tell the manager was getting upset so he walks up to the table and in a nice way tells them that it was time to leave and Mr. Bentley starts going off and telling him he can buy the restaurant and fire him. It was quite funny what this idiot who look to be in his late 30's was saying but the manager remained cool and told him to relax and just pay the bill and leave. As the group is leaving their swearing and one guy from the group tells a table with a couple not to "fucking look at him" but one of the hero's decides to take a beer bottle and smash it in the parking, no clue what he gained from that.



98.9% of Punjabi guys are not like these guys but it's these small groups that fuck it up for everyone else. It's like a few years ago when most of the guys killing each other were a small group EI gangsters and all of a sudden every EI guy was a gangster. My point is I use to get worked up about stories of racial profiling but over the years I've come to realize that a small minority of Punjabi guys fucked everything up us normal Punjabi guys and from a business stand point it makes sense not to allow large groups of Punjabi males. Yes, they spend quite a bit of money on boozes but is it worth getting your liquor license revoked? And because of these rowdy guys, clubs are afraid to let Punjabi girls in because they know it'll attract Punjabi guys. It is what it is but people need to stop crying out racism every time they see stories like this. Yes, racism exists but I bet you guys anything if a club was owned by a Punjabi person they would have the same rules in place, would he/she be called a racist?

its even worse when they are in any sort of position of authority, god help you if you have a EI manager or boss.

every fiji guy ive met has been so cool, but every EI guy ive met has 99% of the time been a complete prick.

I also wonder why they are like that, like I REALLY wonder...

seriously? im really sorry to hear that man. us normal EI guys do exist, but its a bit of a chore trying to find us because we're always trying too keep away from the "jacks".

if you ever saw me in public, id automatically get stereotyped and stuck in with that bad crowd.. its because of the way i dress. cincinnati reds hat, black and white ekco zip up, sweat pants and chuck taylors. i dress like that because im a fat stoner that loves rap. lol. but somehow i get looked at like im a gangster?? it could also be my beard but the ladies love it :)

i get told all the time by my white friends that im not brown and my one good friend thats brown tells me that im only, "brown on the outside"...

Pretty sad when the news has to use RS as a way of gathering information for their 'news'

Andrea Macpherson harsh be lurkin. If you're going to screencap us and use it as a basis for your story than you might as well give RS some credit

I wasn't going to really get involved but since you asked. I was jumped by a meathead of a "brown" guy saturday night (April 2) at Joes Apartment for no reason. Didn't look at him wrong nor did I say a word to him. Took about five sucker punches to the face.

adambomb 04-08-2011 01:00 PM

I wonder how RS is linked to the NEWS1130 article since there has been no discussion about gang affiliation.

Were all just talking about how Surrey Jacks piss us off. :rant

edit. how the hell did that news article start talking about gangs? lmao wtf!?!?!?! im sure most of the fights in the clubs are just regular dudes acting tough. not random gang members meeting up in a bar and fighting it out like a fuken western movie. gangsters are a verryyyyy tiny percentage of the population
