Something is up with this lady. To think like that is bad...... but to so openly act and say the things she said screams not stable. No one with their bran intact living in the greater Toronto area which is super multicultural should be dumb enough to think there would be no consequences for saying or acting that way she did.

That's what I was thinking, too. It's one thing to *think* it. It's another thing completely to *SAY* it. She's a few fries short of a Happy Meal, I suspect.

I'm sure you wouldn't be amazed at how stupid people can be.

However I believe you're right. Something isn't right in her head.

I'm glad I've never witnessed anything so vile.

I have only seen families or patients go offline this if intoxicated.... state of mania or is very provoked by someone or extemly scared or annoyed because they are in huge distress and feel like they are being ignored.

Not really no. While I'm by no means a conservative, it is a disservice to the individual to label them based on ones own prejudices.

There are plenty of conservatives who would find that behaviour abhorrent.

Because of a different political system (e.g. no primaries), unlike the U.S. very few Canadians are members of a political party - less than 0.5%. Because of that lack of commitment, politics tends to be less divisive and when election time rolls around I think voters tend to listen to all candidates with more of an open mind. They haven't committed their vote in advance to one particular party.

I very much doubt that this woman is one of the 260,000 members of the Conservative Party.

LOL. That's a mighty broad brush you're painting Canadian conservatives with. Please don't equate Canadian conservatives with American conservatives, okay? Because they really are not the same.

That woman that caused the ruckus is just some ignorant nutcase with a bigot-stick up her bum. She probably doesn't even know what conservative or liberal actually means.

Your location says: Toronto, Canada (but from America, unfortunately). If you are now a permanent resident in Canada then it's time for you to get rid of that chip on your shoulder that you have against conservatives. Feel free to stop thinking dualistically like a bipartisan American in regard to all liberals vs. all conservatives and start thinking like a Canadian with a more open minded and tolerant Canadian attitude.

Yes. The whole "conservative" "liberal" shtick gets so boring.

Especially from the country that supposedly prides itself on "individualism" and lack of the dreaded "group thinking" They've narrowed themselves down to two distinct groups having no discernable differences from each other when all things of actual uniqueness is taken into account.
