I fail to see what is 'repellent' about my position. Are you saying that human life is somehow sacrosanct? If so, does your disgust extend to those people who buy products manufactured in sweat shops where there are abysmal safety standards?

Really?
You are advocating the direct murder of innocent civilians. That you can't even recognise why others would find this repellent is utterly astounding.
 
:rolleyes:
So what was linking your Chinese comment to your first sentence? Was it supporting the "better" Canadian immigration system, or denigrating it?

I was just saying that there was loads of Chinese people in Vancouver when I went, pertinent to the discussion about Canadian immigration policy.

No idea what the intent of the comment was but I will certainly say that I was quite impressed with the Canadian immigration system. Though of course, as its the first time I will be involved in emigrating, I don't really have anything to directly compare it to. But it seemed sturdy and thorough. I believe the current illegal immigrant figures in Canada number around 120,000. Which when you consider the size of the country is a fairly token amount (To compare, I believe the current illegal immigrant figures in the UK number around 710,000...much smaller amount of terrain to fit them in though of course). Obviously one of those two countries is somewhat tougher to reach than the other and it can clearly be argued that each country has its own pro's for being a target destination, which may outweigh the choice of the other country as a target destination. (not that I am suggesting that anybody weighs up the two against each other as a choice)
 
I'm confused - what do you think I meant by the comment? Are you saying there weren't loads of Chinese people in Vancouver when I went (in 2006 FWIW).

You contrasted Canada's managed, legal immigration policy against our "chaotic free for all", but added "that said, there were loads of Chinese people in Vancouver".

How else to read but that Chinese immigrants were a bad consequence of an otherwise better immigration system?

Your inference is interesting, I never thought that having loads of Chinese people could be perceived as a bad thing.
 
What a delightfully juxtaposition of facts you've chosen there!

Why is Sweden helping more people "horrifying reading"? I would have thought providing refuge to the desperate and disposed should be something a country should be proud of.

As for "the rape capital", it's true that Sweden has more recorded rapes than any other developed nation, however, this comparison is utterly misleading due to differences in the recording of crimes and definition of rape. When you try to collect more comparable data these differences disappear.

lol just lol...

thats violence against women.
in sweden rape is rape as we know it and also , but comparable sexual acts initiated against someone passive — incapable of giving consent — because they are in a vulnerable situation, such as a state of fear or unconsciousness
 
I meant to conjoin two sentences :)

Yes. You did.

And how is a proliferation of Chinese people in Vancouver linked to Canada having a better immigration policy than the UK?

And consider that "That said" tends to be used interchangeably with "however", meaning a contrast.

It's all just weasel words isn't it? Cowardly, frankly, not to stand by it.

Innocent of any crime that would deserve a death penalty.
I honestly can't believe you're trying to justify such a barbaric position.

Mate, I wouldn't bother arguing with this guy. I have read a lot of his posts recently, and he's without a doubt the worst poster I have seen on these forums in all my years here. As a matter of fact, I'm putting him on ignore now so he stops winding me up.

Well we wouldn't want you to be wound up now, would we? Heaven forbid someone might say something controversial and make you spit your dummy out.
