I mean the topic of Asians in Vancouver.

You have people flooding in with money, regardless of their race that factor will make the conversation more difficult.

I'm sure if a bunch of Wealthy Americans were flooding in(and it was visible) people would be upset.


FYI I think the way in which Asian Americans are discriminated by places like harvard (they must score way higher than blacks), is pretty much as intolerable as Jew quotas of a century ago.

((((((Flagellants are practitioners of an extreme form of mortification of their own flesh by whipping it with various instruments. Most notably, Flagellantism was a 14th-century movement, consisting of radicals in the Catholic Church. It began as a militant pilgrimage and was later condemned by the Catholic Church as heretical. The followers were noted for including public flagellation in their rituals. This was a common practice during the Black Death, or the Great Plague. ))))

I wish these people would just stick to crystals and dreamcatchers.
