Any you're the one offended when a stereotypical gang-banger is described...

 

1. my comment was a joke
2. i wasnt really offended since my pants are not falling off, nor am I a gang banger.

 

Well you are from TO....I thought everyone from there walks around in puffy jackets busting caps..


j/k

 

lol u got that right. the proper TO gangsta atire is:

1. puffy jacket (normally a bright colour)
2. very baggy pants (brand/type doesnt matter as long as they mad baggy)
3. tims or lugs, untied (this one i dont understand, untied laces make it so much harder to run from the po-po)
4. baseball caps that are a few sizes too big (normally very colourful as well)
5. fake silver chain (dem mens gots to have they blin' blin' on, u kno wut im sayin)

and it doesnt matter where in TO/GTA u are, either down town or even in the boonies, thats how all the thugs dress.

 

Is it so impossible to look at a nice product without turning the thread into an anti-gun thread?

Yes it is sad when innocent people get hurt by guns however the percentage of innocent people who get shot is very very low in TO. I'm not saying shooting a person is "what they deserved" but of all the stories that are glorified in the media, with the victims parents saying "oh he was such a nice good buy" and the neighbourhood priest saying "such a good role model" the most you hear in the negative regard is "the victim was known to police". Then after they sensationalize the story for two weeks they may add a blurb on page 45 that is 1"x1" that says "Victim in shooting was as a result of a drug deal/gun deal/into bad people/ etc." But no one reads that cause it's old news then and now the new story is sensationalized on page 1 now.

And the RCMP killing of four RCMP officers was a much bigger story than the Creba shooting. It's just that we're closer to this one that's all.
