As for the frequency of marijuana usage and arrests, I'd say that's probably accurate.Thought this video would contribute to the topic:
Yes, that is a possibility seeing that she does seem to look at the person who's recording her when she starts her tangent, and she never tells anyone to stop filming her. However, the anger and resentment towards her from the people in the clinic appears to be authentic.My VC spidey senses say this is a contrived situation, simply because it takes place in Mississauga of all places.
Either that or she is scoring points with some dimwits.
I went to the day clinic once with chest pain. They rushed me in immediately to get an EKG. So quick in fact they forgot to clean my elbow pit with an alcohol swab before drawing my blood @_@Glad to see the video without her face obscured. I feel sorry for the kid, actually. First of all, he has a mother who’s clearly rude and up-talks. Secondly, she knows nothing about what clinics are for. I thought people know that if you have chest pains, you go straight to the ER. Oddly enough, if she went to the hospital, her son would've been seen immediately because people with chest pains are first on the list when it comes to patients in the ER, and she wouldn't have had time to complain.
poor kid
Here in Canada a woman walked into a clinic but demanded to see a white doctor. Racism has always been here and will continue to be here.
Thoughts?
....Indeed, if all goes well and he continues living in that city he will deplore his mom's views....poor kid
There are. Probably just not at that clinic specifically. It is Mississauga so it might cater to the neighbourhood, too.Weird how there are no white doctors. Why is that? Seems strange.
she has a right to speak her mind, although i this she is rude and disagree with her.

the slippery slope begins when we start legislating about curtailing racism. after all, entitlements, special compensations, affirmative action, etc. are the biggest causes of racism, as these things breed resentment to those who want a level playing ground, regardless of race, creed, etc.
further, and this is slightly off topic, when we impose restrictions or sensitize ourselves to words so that we cannot laugh at the stereotypes and self-deprecation of ones own race, we cannot ease the tension between races and allow dialogue for understanding. those of us who remember what it was like to be living in a time of normality will recall this. perhaps this is a reason why off-color jokes are prohibited these days.
by making race and racial slurs off limits, that dialogue ends and MISunderstanding grows into what we have today.
the racism is real film looks like a lot of social justice justification to me. life can be tough for some groups. toughing it out through the BS and roadblocks to get ahead only makes them stronger individuals. they deserve a higher level of respect from us-- thats how i feel. conversely, whining about discrimination when it does appear doesnt help.
before i am rebutted by the social justice folks in here, i speak from experience. i get discriminated in my country. and i walk it off.
You're right they shouldn't be arrested or fined but if they happened to be knocked out cold because of some racist remark they make than they should live with it because the things people say have consequences. I say this because I knocked a bouncer on his ass cold because he told a black friend of mine that "little slave niggers like you don't amount to anything". I told him to back off and then just stared at me thinking he was going to intimidate me lol. I hope he learned his lesson.she has a right to speak her mind, although i this she is rude and disagree with her.

If we use race and colour in a civilized manner in terms of debate and discussion I'm all for it but when you use it a context which is belittling well that's where the problems begin.she has a right to speak her mind, although i this she is rude and disagree with her.

What do you think it should be a proper punishment for this scum? Maybe jail time is too much, but it should be something. There's nothing to say about it. Racism is a real and horrendous thing deeply rooted in societies, so there should be some kind of punishment, although I believe public criticism and repulse could be.If we use race and colour in a civilized manner in terms of debate and discussion I'm all for it but when you use it a context which is belittling well that's where the problems begin.
