Nice video, Derek. I'm gonna add something you didn't even mention. Here in the U.S., there is the Patriot Act, and a growing Police State. Our liberties and Constitutional rights are being trampled by the day. Our privacy is being lost at an alarming rate, and there are more checkpoints than ever before, tighter security measures at airports than ever before, metal detectors even at high schools for students just to attend class, and worst of all shootings of innocent people by cops (often homeless, mentally ill, etc.) than ever before. I don't know for sure, but I don't think Canada has the degree of the same problems, and if they do, they certainly aren't at the magnitude that they are happening here in the states. Those shootings are about 2,000-3,000 just in the last year!! Please be careful, especially in California, and know your U.S. Constitutional rights if/when you get stopped on the road or anywhere else.

I'm Indian ... These assholes are creating problem in India also .

The best way to solve this problem is through education. Education is like a lighthouse that burns through the fog of religious rhetoric. As muslim people (and people of any religion, for that matter) become better educated, the grip of religion weakens and eventually disappears. It may take a few generations. I'm optimistic that Canada can beat this problem without violence.

Speaking as a white man I have to admit I don't quite understand the need for anyone to organize as a race in Canada. First generation clubs from whatever country, sure, but as a race? Is it the elephant in the room... American slavery?  I can't help but think that most perceived problems blacks have in Canada are due to American issues we see in movies and media.\nWe in Canada bend over backwards to offer opportunity to succeed. Even touching on racism is widely and loudly crushed. I personally, as do most, give any individual the opportunities they deserve but it's up to them to screw it up or not. To me, if any minority can't make it in this society they aren't trying.\nIt's actually worse in my mind to be white male in public forums because our views and opinions are marginalized and shouted down. Youtube and the internet are the few forums where honest feelings and opinions can be spoken. No one with anything to lose would say this in public for fear of attacks from the thought police. Pretty sad we live in a free country that actually doesn't allow free speech from all. I guess some are more free than others.\nKeep telling me I'm unfair and bad, when I'm not and I might actually grow resentment and the very prejudice you're complaining about.

Yeah see, exactly my point. It wasn't your choice. For all the problems of Bangladesh, you would be better off there. Wealth doesn't equal happiness.\n\nNote that my views formed WHILE I was in the UK - specifically after 16 as there was no sixth form locally and I had to go to the city to study. I'm sure you wouldn't like it either if Bangladesh started being overrun by people of other cultures (note that religion heavily integrates with culture, but culture is a problem too, as is race).

I'm fucking sick of these people\nIt's funny how we don't have these kind of problem's say with the Chinese or the other ethnicites\nIt's Muslims causing all the fucking problems\nThere beliefs are far to extreme to integrate in any kind of community\nThe video proves my point\nI like to live in a cosmopolitan country, but when I here Muslims winging about this country, I think to myself, If you hate it so much, why the fuck are you here\n

If it was just an isolated incident, no. But when they stage mass demonstrations burning American/British flags by the hundreds and shit talking the troops, then yes, it would get CNN coverage.\n\n40% of British Muslims want Sharia in the UK.\n\nw w w(dot)telegraph(dot)co(dot)uk/news/uknews/1510866/Poll -reveals- 40pc-of-Muslims- want- sharia- law -in-UK.h t m l (Remove spaces)\n\nThere is a problem with Islam. Not all Muslims are necessarily bad people, but their religion is.
