long as its legal in the state it's fine. same with cannabis.

i think they're quite relaxed, twitch was originally meant for gaming IIRC, now it's got hot tubs etc it seems like diet OF surprising what's allowed on there.

to quote 1 reddit user, it's like their motto is: if you got the rack we got your back :badpokerface:

........

Surrey throat slashing in early April. Stabbing at NW Skytrain station (involving teens) on Monday. Another Surrey bus stabbing last night (Tues), resulting in a dead 17 year old.

WTF is happening to the Lower Mainland? FailFish

It's every major city now. Calgary, edmonton, Toronto.
Now the idea is in peoples heads. People can play the "tough on crime" angle as a fix, but that won't prevent it because these people are ready to die, they just want to bring the world down with them.

This is exactly why you need to stop telling your kids that they are special. Lousy participation awards and shit has made everyone think they are entitled to behave badly and society will be there to save them.

Yeah sounds like I'll stick to paying high gas prices and never taking transit

Ahh.. the old “it’s bad everywhere”

Please.

The lower mainland in general has turned into this total shit hole. Maybe Canada is just turning into a shit hole? Who’d have thunk when there are zero repercussions for your actions.

Law abiding citizens trade off their safety for liberal ideologies

That one hits home, my 16 year old (17 next month) was in that exact area last night for football practice an hour before this kid got stabbed.

It is bad everywhere lol. If you got me "excusing it" from that comment you need to work on your reading.
The point is canada is turning into a shithole, genius. Trying so hard to be devils advocate here is cute.
The world is a shithole, and it's because people are desperate, indoctrinated, stupid and have nothing to lose. This is a feature, not a bug of the division politics you seem to always get hard over.

As I’ve said so many times. Go to Europe, go to Asia.

People are not sprawled out on the street surrounded by drug paraphernalia and piles of shit.

No where is like this. Outside of these liberal shit holes like Seattle and Portland. We encourage the type of behaviour we have here.

I guess I should get my son out of boxing and find someone to teach him how to use a knife, seems like the only logical step............

Yeah man Uber liberal Tennessee having mass shootings. The Uber liberal Middle East having people suicide bombing those of other religions!
You're in a fucking fantasy world based on your vacation man.

At least we’ve got free healthcare for when ya get a bat through your head on the skytrain!

Canada is in as bad shape as it’s ever been, and it doesn’t scale everywhere.

We have friends from Australia who came back here recently, the wife grew up here. Even they were like wow.. this place is in badddd shape.

Walk around downtown for 10 minutes. There are very few major cities like this anywhere that allow this type is disorder to continually take place.

I don’t think we need a 3 strike system, but maybe a 50 strike system? 100 strikes?

When the guy with 200 charges stabs you and changes your life forever, yet he’s released in a year and a half.. feels kinda.. unjust?.. but it’s Canada baby!

I go to downtown almost every day on the train... I've never been batted in the head... or seen someone batted in the head.

But okay.

You're too handsome for anyone to bat in the head. :hotbaby:

I take the train now.. gotta cop a vest

Just pay one of the junkies (?) on your train to be a human shield

When are you leaving dawg

The story is missing why he got stabbed. Like every other story.

The news agencies like to leave that out 95% of the time because 1: they don't know, and 2: all they care about is the page clicks

When you add in it's a 17 year old that lipped off a meth head, or pushed a mentally unstable drug dealer, or got stabbed for flashing his 8000$ wad of cash on the IG 20 minutes earlier, it all adds up

I never read the article, just my insensitive opinion

Gotta aquire more property to fund my life as slumlord

I can't see how it doesn't just keep getting worse from here on out. Every year more density, more homeless, more people who can't afford shit and just don't give a fuck anymore.

i've gotten to appreciate boxing more....get to learn about footwork, timing and distance, great cardio for running ... all great tools to keep you alive lol

i used to do a martial art that showed some knife defense... now i'm wiser i'm like f that, shit will get me killed :lol

Many western countries are turning into this. When you give people freedom and tell them they are special then they feel they are owed something. When they don’t get it and can’t realize it’s because aren’t actually special then they start going insane.

Plus fuck social media. That Instagram/Facebook are ruining peoples lives.

Capitalism only exists because of the promises. "Everyone can succeed if you try" isn't real, because you're right, not everyone has it. At least if the people who didn't had enough to live for they might not become a danger. Anyone who thinks jail concerns the guy who's at risk of losing his shopping cart full of paint cans and old AV cables is delusional. Punishment only sucks if it's worse than the life you are already living.
