Ok Netland.  You judge.  Is the Mr. Labach's signature not a blatant
"you're a racist!" remark?  Were not his 4 posts prior to this one
not other examples of "you're a racist!" remarks?

I should think I have a damn good reason to be paranoid.  When assholes
like Mr. Labach call an otherwise fair minded and honest citizen (like 
myself) a racist, simply because I dare to speak my mind in a (so called)
free world.  My message was presented in a rather angry manner, but that's
my priviledge.  I wanted to address the growing trend in Canada (and maybe
in the US) of readily blaming white colonial history for all the world's
problems.  I'm not to blame; my ancestors are.  My ancestors should also
be forgiven because they sincerely believed that they were "better" in
the "eye's of God" than the "savages" (sic, Mr. Labach) they crushed. Why
must I now pay taxes to a government that wastes it on correcting the
past.  It should be protecting the future.  To this end, an official
"melting-pot" policy might prevent division within the nation.  Enforced
"multiculturalism" is expensive, will guarantee division and ethnic
rivalries and will eventually lead to a stratification of rights and
freedoms based on what group the individual belongs to.  We're already
seeing this happen.  The white population in Canada is not allowed to
unite (this would be racist!) but other groups are.  Since I have no
interest in becoming a member of a "white league", I propose the abolition
of racism in all it's forms, not just white bigotry.

And by the way, Mr. Labach has been the only one to fire negative responses
at my original "whitey" post.  Instead, I have received an overwhelming
amount of positive replies from all over.  Again, only this one dim-wit 
Canadian (having been brainwashed by his government to reduce the threat
of civil war) has done the opposite.

I don't hate other people.  I hate Canada's politics and ethereal socialist
ideology.  Get that through your thick skull.

Ps. This time Netland, please post your replies.  If you haven't read the
original "whitey" post, Mr. Labach has graciously supplied the article
number in his signature.
