Did someone forget to take out the trash? - RCMP looking for Cloverdale Rodeo Trash
obviously we dont know the full story here (i.e. why is the 'victim' provoking this trash to hit her?)... but goes to show, taking a video can easily incite the offender.
RCMP looking for woman behind attack at Cloverdale Rodeo
Attacker heard using racial slurs in a video
SURREY (NEWS1130) – Mounties in Surrey are looking for a woman seen in a YouTube video attacking a protester at the Cloverdale Rodeo over the weekend.
Corporal Bert Paquet says the victim claims she was spat on, grabbed by the hair, punched, and then kicked.
“I believe at the time, the victim was protesting cruelty to animals; we often see these peaceful protests at rodeos across the province and we believe this was the case at the time.”
The woman can be heard using profanity and racial slurs.
The victim, Skukria Azini, says she was disgusted and shocked at how she was treated.
“Just because she saw my sign and what my sign said. It was no reason for someone to act like that. I took my camera and started recording because I wasn’t sure how to react to it, I was there for the animals and trying to do something good” says Azini.
“We are still looking, not only to identify the female seen in this video involved in this incident, as well as any other potential witnesses that may have anymore information that could assist in our investigation,” adds Paquet.

fuck...if that's the only video of racism there then wow...I was at the rodeo, and the chubby skanky surrey girls behind us were just gooned throwing way harsher words out...
ex:
an American bull rider starts turn, all I can here is "FUCK AMERICA!!!! LETS BOMB SOME MORE OF YOUR TOWERS!!!! CANADA RULLLESSSSS!!!!!" got to the point where me and my gf her sis and bf had to get up and just leave.
that's just an 8 second bull ride...we were sitting there for at least 15 minutes listening to them yell about n*ggers, ch*nks, h*ndu's...
She taught me right from wrong and always told me to stay positive and help others no matter how small the deed - that helping others gives us meaning to carry on. The sun is out today and it's a new day. Life is good. I just needed a slap in the face.
Lol, I've attended the Calgary stampede with a bunch of friends over the past few years and I've always had the time of my life. I've never had issues with racist idiots, in fact the crowd is very friendly.
I feel both people are to blame in the video posted; both of them provoked each other. Mix in alcohol and things are said that you won't say when you're sober.

90% of the time the crowds are friendly.
but side question, since almost every rodeo ive seen and been to has a giant amount of confederate flags there, do people see that as racism, or southern pride? I ask because there was this beautiful leather belt with a confederate flag buckle that I was wanting to buy...but the gf kept pulling me away saying its way to racist to wear in the city...
