Remember when Canada and the U.S. were best friends? Hockey jokes, Niagara Falls road trips, and snowbirds flooding Florida condo boards with drunk westerners getting arrested in VEGAS?
Yeah. That relationship’s gone.
Welcome to Canada’s unofficial, but very real, travel boycott of the United States—a not-so-silent protest against Donald Trump’s economic aggression, authoritarian rhetoric, and his laughable “Canada is the 51st state” delusion. And make no mistake: this boycott with a conscience is costing the U.S. billions, especially in border states that depend on seasonal Canadian tourism, real estate, and retail.
There is a reason that 90% of Canadians live within 60 miles of the United States. Or at least were was. Before this mass stupidity on Trump’s part, it was common for Canadians to spend on upscale vacation in our gentler climates and conduct trade in dozens of different industries.

Obviously, this isn’t a real human being, though there are tens of millions with this perspective, so let’s treat him as if he were an actual guy.

No one’s going to hate you, because everyone with a brain supports border control and law enforcement.

You are, however, running the risk of being regarded as a moron.  There are hundreds of points of domestic and international law, reason, and humanity that are being addressed every day along these lines.

Why don’t you go on keepin’ those doggies moving, and let the rest of us do our best to figure out how to treat immigrants legally and humanely?

The guy who sent me this writes Could not be any clearer than that.

Oh, it’s clear all right, but it’s not really true.  People who live in places like Northern Europe, New Zealand, Iceland, Costa Rico, etc. are generally quite affluent.
Now, if you aspire to be the world’s next trillionaire, on a planet where 1.5 billion people can’t a glass of clean water to drink, you’ll need to go to a place like Switzerland, where it’s easy to hide money from taxation.

Gun Laws

Published

We’ve all heard the adage, “If guns are outlawed, only outlaws will have guns.”

It has a nice ring to it, but it really doesn’t hold water in the real world, where counties with strict gun laws, e.g., Japan, England, and Australia have very low rates of violent crime.

Note: these countries don’t have an NRA, a fabulously wealthy lobbying organization that controls their lawmaking apparatus.

Moreover, outside the United States, it’s very hard to find a place where a potentially mentally unstable person can go into a store and walk out with a weapon of war, capable of killing 50+ people each minute.
