Racist graffiti at Empire Centre in Richmond

Deserves more than a triple facepalm. They caught one of the guys, but the police are still looking for others.















So, while these people are not incredably eloquent in expressing their ideas, it makes me wonder if there's a lot of behind the curtain resentment about immigration. From the CBC news article comments (some are insightful, others are predictably garbage), it's not so crazy of an idea.

 

Stuff like that disgusts me, although everyone is entitled to their opinion. It's still hard to comprehend why people can openly go about their hate about another culture/race like that. Especially in Vancouver where we are literally multicultural to the point where most of us are hyrbid children lol.

Can't the police just ask the arrested guy where the other guy, if they're working together? **I mean bargain with the guy for the answers

 

gotta respect free speach even if you don't agree with it hahaha

 

^ Not when it's hate speech... and other people's property isn't exactly a medium for opinions.

 

Free speech is American, it's free expression in Canada. But honestly lol I don't know if you're saying that as a joke or not. 'Cause, free speech does not mean you should be going around running your mouth like that. Like cheeseshredder said, that's not free speech; that's hate speech. There's a difference especially with the writing of the KKK...that's obviously a racist attack not FREE EXPRESSION OF IDEAS.

Totally against the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedom.

 

UPDATE:

Second tagger arrested
