Most powerful country? Are you wearing blinders? Things have changed. But one thing that hasn''t, is you still blather on and on and on. It''s one post after another, page after page after page.

Don''t you ever get tired of your verbal diarrhoea? Everybody else does.

"It provides solace for lacking in all the other areas--redirected jealousy."

See, I don''t see us as "lacking". You are the ones that are lacking.

"Plus, look at the population densities in Canada. How many large cities do you even have Canada? 2? How many MS13 and Mexican Mafioso''''s do you have coming into your country with the full support of liberals for the last 20 years?"

In fact, there''s a higher crime rate in smaller cities and big towns than in Canada''s biggest cities. And the US crime rate has been higher for decades, before Mexican immigration took its current form.

How would anyone have stopped the murder? The killer moved to the back row, so he couldn''t be attacked from the front or from either side. The bus was only about 65% full and passengers tend to cluster towards the front. Unless you''re in front of the killer, you have to move down the aisle to reach him. How to you get down the aisle when others (inc. kids & women) are heading the other way? Besides, the first non-victim to notice the attack (not the one interviewed on TV) said the victim was already done for (as in: the jugular had already been hit). Guns? Right, so the killer has a gun in addition to the knife and is that much more lethal.

Reading between lines of your comments, there seems but one difference twixt yourself and the slasher, and that is he kept his mouth shut.
lot of hate there.

I disagree--Txgrouch had the courage to comment on the flow and an inane comment--keeping the mouth shut is tantamount to not rocking the boat and not making waves--more the line of the passengers who sat silently in their seats and counted until they could run. It could have been said a lot nastier than grouch said it--because for that poster to ask why no one else had commented on people not doing anything on that bus , without reading the blog--was just a bit ignorant. It deserved a response--we should applaud txgrouch for not getting nasty with his answer.

Canadian version of "The Hokey Pokey":

You put your left foot in,
They cut your left foot off,
You do the hokey pokey and you turn
yourself around, that''s what it''s all about.

You put your big head in,
They cut your big head off,
You do the hokey pokey and you turn
yourself around, that''s what it''s all about.

etc., etc.

Oh,,What a cheap shot. HOOO! YAAAAA!

Hey! Where did you run off to? I thought you were going to share more of your wit and wisdom.

Well, anyways, it''s clear that Canada has no John Wayne types up there.

xgrouch2006...What are you, the message board police?????????????

Posted by tomanyt at 11:35 AM : Aug 01, 2008


What txgrouch gave was a taste of blogger''s etiquette. For those who have been at this a long time, it is easier for us to tell people a few of the protocols to keep the discourse flowing. Txgrouch is right--and he stepped up to the plate and said something, even though it would arouse the ire of some people like you. So even in this forum, there are those who step up, those who just watch (and let the bs go on--in this case it was a poster who had obviously read nothing and so was disgorging an opinion and not dialoging) those who want to attack the one who dared speak out, those who just stay out of it and those who fight--odds are what just played out now and who got involved may also indicate which people would have "run for the doors" and who would have stayed to try to make it right.

Kudos to you txgrouch--the poster probably is a newbie and did not know that before making statements about what is in the blog or questioning what is in all the threads--it is best to READ first or keep the opinions very prosaic.

TXgrouch was right on this one and in a way--we all should be the police of the places we dare to tread--on buses and in real life.

CORRECTION:

Pay no attention to erasmus81. She only comes to our boards each day, to try to INvalidate her feelings of inferiority about her and Canada''''s predicament of being the neighbor to the most powerful country in the world, today. To do this, she tries to find the most horrendous things going on in our country or political system and gleefully point out that it is not going on in Canada.

From healthcare, to money, to land to power--when you are always and forever destined to be in the shadow of a bigger brother--ya have to look for the flaws--think of it as a sort of cultural thumbsucking being done by the Canadians. It provides solace for lacking in all the other areas--redirected jealousy.

Posted by toldyouso12 at 11:29 AM : Aug 01, 2008

The real problem for erasmus, is that no matter what she reads about our country, she seems to only make those niggling feelings of inferiority go away for only a few hours--then she has to come back and enter the fray over and over again, so that she can read something else "terrible" about the states--so she can feel better about her overpriced (and probably derelict) home, tightly packed against her neighbors, where the weather is the major topic of every day and the most important thing to a Canadian is what is going on in our country, not their''s.

Look, if he had a gun, then he would have a gun. What does gun law have to do with it? You think psychos care? (oops, better take a knife, guns are um ILLEGAL)
Yeah right. Whereas if one of th REST of us was armed, then by god we might stand a chance. You have to remember, most people are NOT crazed psychos. Allowing adult, responsible, trained, liscensed citizens to be armed, as per their natural rights, would have possibly prevented this. That and of course, that the passengers weren''t pansy canadians running away, or watching complacently.

carade1...Human nature. If you were in this situation, you would have probably run as well. At the very least, he was stopped from killing someone else.

That question has been covered about a dozen times already. When you''re just joining the discussion, why not review what''s already been written first.
