Richards 0 #1 December 6, 2006 Indo-Canadians in Surrey BC complain that bylaws limiting house size are racist http://www.cbc.ca/consumer/story/2006/12/06/bc-surrey-homes.html I really do find mega-houses to be an eyesore myself and I have personally seen how these things have blocked sunlight from neighboring backyards. It seems to me that housing regulations existed to protect owners from having thier property devalued due to actions of neighbors long before Indo-Canadians started dominating our immigration make-up, so my default position is that they are playing the race card to get thier way. If one disagrees with the idea of housing regulations that is fine but I think it is a stretch to start attributing this to racism, however that never seems to stop some people from trying. My biggest handicap is that sometimes the hole in the front of my head operates a tad bit faster than the grey matter contained within. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If you cry "racism", then anyone who tries to deny that race is a factor, can then be labeled a racist. So it's easy to win that way. And the worst thing in the world is to be called a racist. Before we allow anyone to do that, we should surrender our culture, out heritage, our honor, and our country. We must let the foreigners take over everything, so that they won't brand us "racists".

You have refused to submit blindly to all PC agendas and are therefore a racist who must be sent to a sensitivity re-education facility.
