I would say there have also been some horrible headlines out of Canada. Yesterday a Federal Court Canadian Judge said one of the most vile things i have ever heard. He asked a homeless rape victim, “why dont you just keep your knees together” and “why she allowed the sex to happen if she didn’t want it”. The World…

I do think you are really downplaying Canada. Even compared to rest of World Canada is not idyllic. The statistics for sexual assault against aboriginal women is one of the highest in “a first world country” and even beyond. Aboriginal women have asked other countries if they can claim asylum because of the rape…

Um it is Keith Vaz not Kevin.

Yep and in Kentucky the GOP has just regained the Senate and they have elected a Tea Party member as Governor and he wants to get rid of medicaid. This is the second Republican elected to Kentucky’s highest office in 40 years, so it is a shock.

Sounds like there were a lot of problems with the bill. I am more concerned with what has happened in Houston. Voters have have overturned the city’s equal rights ordinance, which covers 15 protected groups. This is scary and fucked up because Houston apparently has a reputation for being supportive of LGBTQ rights, i…

WTF America, this is one of the most disturbing stories i have ever heard. I bet one of the reasons why they are defending him is because of his ties to the military, it is really disturbing seeing the way a lot of people in US get so defensive if you point out any faults in the US military.

I am surprised that this article did not include her quote about feminism. She seems like she has educated herself on many things.

I live in UK and i can not find one link about an MP laughing in someones face about suicide..

Can you explain how we are wrong because you can not say that this article was not dismissive of this film. Also it is fantastic that you managed to get the number of people who were killed in the holocaust wrong. 6 million Jewish people died but over 11 million was the total number, thankyou for whitewashing my…

Not at all, you can not compare the two.

That is false that so many cling to the “oh, it was only a few bad apples”. Unlike the US and so many other countries they actually do accept that is more than few bad apples.

So you are talking about catalogs from the 90s, i have plenty in front of me and none of them feature anyone that has a disability. Also there is a lack of diversity. No way is this even close to standard in Canada.

I am just glad that i no longer live in US, this is so scary and what is scary is seeing so many trying to justify it. The US has managed to brainwashed so many by thinking that this is normal and that this has nothing to with racism, this should not be normal. This young girl was just chewing gum and she also ended…

It would still be rare to see this in mainstream Canadian catalogs.

No i am not accepting points of view that are blaming immigrants, especially as a lot of the cases are from people who were born in UK. If you actually read and look up the cases you will find that many were trafficked into the UK. You do not even live in UK, yet you felt the need to blame immigrants and not look up…

Okay Nigel Farage.

You are very out of the loop and very insensitive. Also you do realize that UN is now investigating US due to racism against Native Americans, you have to be either oblivious or very racist to think that insulting Native Americans ended centuries ago. I am going to go for racist seeing as you are defending a racial…

I think they are talking about her stand=up in which she used terms like wetbacks and said all Latino men are rapists.

There is a difference, but you do not just put people who murder others on death row. So many innocent people have been killed in US and people who in progressive country would be deemed mentally incapacitated- who should never be on death row.

Also the US holds back because Saudi Arabia is an ally. US is always there to speak out about “bararic acts” and how they are “leaders of free world” if the country is not an ally.
