Racism alive and well in Keswick

Racism in our own fucking backyard. Who'd think it? White bullies in Keswick love to show their ignorance, by calling Asians, "Chinese," pushing Asian anglers into the water in a sport locally known as "nipper tipping" and beating up on Asian kids who happen to be A+ students and black belt martial artists. Yes, a bully fucked with the wrong 15-year-old Korean when he pushed him and punched him in the face. He did count on a left handed (weaker hand) punch in return that broke his nose. Now the school has suspended both students and has threatened to expel the Korean student.

WTF?

Just before you think all Keswick residents are racists, take note of this little tidbit. In response to 15-year-old's suspension for fighting back, 400 hundred of his peers walked out of Keswick High School on Monday in protest. Hopefully the York Region school's administration will take a moment to reflect on the Ten Tenets of Character they have posted on the school's website, and realize that their dumb-ass response needs to corrected.

At least there is some hope.

I wonder if those bullies would want to take the chance of yelling "Chinese fuck" in Toronto.

    Hey Andy,

    I'm writing because I found where you posted one of my articles ("If Iran Were America") a while ago.

    I thought you might be interested in reading my novel Dominion, which is available free at my new website www.JLBryanbooks.com.

    Dominion is set in a near-future totalitarian America, which has continued to expand its foreign wars even as it collapses internally. The main character is a TV "news" reporter who begins digging for the truth behind the propaganda he reports. The book builds on existing American culture and Austrian insights into the nature of the state. You can download the full book as a free PDF

    I hope you will visit the site, and you can also look at my other books available there.

    Thanks!
    Jeff Bryan

Civil disobedience is called for

Image
In an act of desperation, Tim DeCristopher chose civil disobedience to disrupt the bidding process that saw 149,000 acres of public land leased off to oil companies in Utah. The lease of the land to oil companies, to allow drilling, has been contested by many who wish to preserve the pristine land, located near Arches National Park, the White River, the greater Desolation Canyon region, Labyrinth Canyon, the benches east of Canyonlands National Park, Nine Mile Canyon, the Book Cliffs and the Deep Creek Mountains. It is one of the final sell-off by the dying Bush administration. DeCristopher showed at the auction, registered as a bidder, and started bidding -- and winning -- with no intention of purchasing or paying for the auctions he won. Way to go dude! You're a hero!
