going to Mexico for years the incident was in a RV camping ground.

Geez. Millions upon millions of US and Canadian tourists visit Mexico every year. Maybe if someone compared the rates of such incidents to tourists
visiting other countries, such as the US, it may not seem like such a big deal.

IF
ND is a "typical" Canuckian, it is surprising that we don't read of far more being shot, stabbed, run-over or otherwise eradicated.

Wouldn't It be something if Drew turned out to be someone we all knew who had been banned from this board before?

Canuckians in California
During Winter, they're more plentiful than c-ckroaches.
And, wherever you run into them, they'll invariably Drone on about how wonderful Canuckia is while making it a point to stay away from there until the
Thaw.
There should be some sort of a Spray-Repellent to deal with them. It would sell big in the Inland Areas. In Hemet, they'd have a problem keeping it
on the shelves.

There was a flurry of negative posts a few months back, and then nothing. Looks like she's back.
That said, it really struck me the first time around that it appeared to be someone "near and dear" to the board. Could be.

You don't have to be afraid of it. Just live...and die....with it. Be your own person. You are in charge of your life. Looking for strength is only
for the weak. Be pure of mind and resolve. Forgive the misguided and pray for them. Be strong...be gentle...be aware. Be yourself.
When you're done doing all that, buy a heavy insurance policy and a rapid fire pistol.
God loves you....and your gun.

I will keep it simple for those of you with the Canadian-bashing comments: STFU
Unless you want me to unleash on "Americans", and demonstrate how I can be equally narrow-minded, obtuse, ignorant, limited in comprehension,
marooonic, bigoted, out-and-out stupid, jingoistic, and a pendejo....
Don't believe everything you think....

As for comparasions between the Untied States and Mexico.. whens the last time you read a story like this... happening in the United States... to a
Citizen
"The 43-year-old was driving from Piedras Negras to the town of Muzquiz in the border state of Coahuila when his vehicle was chased by a group of
armed gunmen at about 5 p.m. last Wednesday, according to borderlandbeat.com.
Klowak refused to stop and, trying to escape the armed thugs, crashed and rolled his vehicle, at which point a gunman walked to the wreckage and shot
him twice in the head, according to the article."
I don't get TV, so I just googled... and could not find any ... if one can supply.. thanks in advance...

All the Canada bashers out there, take a look at this link:

All of these men gave their lives fighting voluntarily alongside Americans in Viet Nam.

And over 100 Canadian men and women have died in George Bush's war in Afghanistan....
So let's get back to bad roads, floods, time-share salesmen, and where to find good tacos...
