Vancouver Off-Topic / Current EventsThe off-topic forum for Vancouver, funnies, non-auto centered discussions, WORK SAFE. While the rules are more relaxed here, there are still rules. Please refer to sticky thread in this forum.
Son, your post was the pure definition of ignorance. Casting a pre-disposed opinion on an entire group of people based on your vast, I'm sure experience with natives near and far is the definition of the term.
I read your explanations after, and I don't mean to keep pounding you, but what you really need to do is sit back, open your mind a bit and learn.
I mean no offense by this, but you are 21 my friend-you don't know shit.
I only have a diploma in business mgmt...does that mean I can't take part anymore?
ill end my argument here then. after all, to each their own. in these discussions there cant really be a right or wrong; everything is subjective dependent on that individual's moral beliefs. there are some people such as yourself who hopes the world can be more understanding. you are correct, in context of your moral beliefs and with others who share your beliefs.
however, you must take note that what you label as "ignorant" is also subjective. ive been raised where it is rude to denounce other people's opinions. i may not agree with you, but i would.never call you ignorant or naive

Theres way to many people getting butt-hurt in this thread.....do you honestly think you're going to change peoples mind by venting your idology over the internet??
You guys need to grow thicker skin.
Maybe its just me...but imho ( I interact with a lot of first nations; I work in the food industry) they're not the brightest people around. Granted that I am sure there is some very well educated ones; just the ones I have met over the 12 yrs of being in the food industry are not something I would say "Smart".
It is unfortunate that the ratio of good/bad is huge.
I would venture to say, you've primarily encountered the lowest tier of First Nations society in your career. People who work in kitchens out of the necessity of an income are not generally the most intelligent people regardless of race, however. Dino and I have had interactions with a more diverse array of First Nations people and have had a radically different experience, which I do not think is coincidental.

I work in the fishing industry (food). So our first nations clientels are usually fishermans and bussiness owners.

i see. cant put up an argument. you remind me of some religious ppl who cannot debate and just call you out with no reason because they are incompetent of doing so, because they are just "right".............. DOUBLEDOWNS
Waste of time arguing with a kid who thinks he's smart, and knows it all. Have a nice day. Besides, theirs nothing to argue about w/ you.

An opinion is "i like blue ink to black" or "vanilla ice cream ftw"
What you are making are statements of facts, based on a limited sample size of people you have met.
So while I agree it is rude to denounce an opinion, I feel fully justified to correct a statement of fact.

fair enough. i guess you are right. i agree my statements are probably inaccurate due to the sample size but in vancouver, most ppls sample sizes are probably similar

edit: I would like to hear your explaination as to why you are failing me dinosaur; i was sharing my experience that I had with one type of ethnic group.
I work for an airline that primarily serves a ton of reserves up north, so the majority of our customer base is first nations. Just like any other race, there are the incredibly stupid people, and the brilliant ones, and I haven't noticed a staggering difference in the ratio of idiots to great people.
really?.. some reason im afraid of taking shits after ghost movies.. i always think about what if a ghost's hand came out of the toilet and grabbed my nuts or stuck its hand in my ass -___________-.... i mean if it came outa the mirror id have reaction time to run but the toilets.. thats a pretty good blind spot to sneak up on people from -_____- ...
I will probably get flamed like crazy for this but i'll bet the average Indian is a better driver than the average Chinese person. Providing they are two people w/ the same driving experience.

I had high hopes for you, little one.
Now i have hopes you are high, because that was the dumbest thing ever. Gold star!

Insulting the Chinese on a Chinese forum? Game over, man. Game over.

the farmers in maple ridge hire a bunch of foreign hispanic workers and make them stay in the worst excuses for shelter :/
Funny story from one of the farmers I deal with at work.
Last year he brought in 30 Mexican workers to work on his farm. He supplied them with a house on the farm to live in.
There was 8 females of which 4 will not be coming back this year.
Anyone want to take a wild guess why not?
