Losing is not an option
What does that mean? Of course it's an option. SOMEBODY has to lose. Not EVERYBODY can win. It's the essence of competing.
"when losing is not an option"....the epitome of inane platitudes

Voting
If I am given the choice of who is to rob me and I refuse to choose as I don't want to be robbed, don't I still have the right to complain when I do get robbed?

Government Apologies
So now people who did not commit the offense are apologizing to people who were not the victims. That makes sense. The Canadian government also offered $10 million to the Ukrainian-Canadian Foundation and $5 million to the Chinese-Canadian community as a result of wrongdoings during the World Wars.
I did nothing wrong. Why are my tax dollars going to people who haven't been victimized?
By the way...if my great-grandfather wronged your great-grandfather in any way, I am sorry. Please come by my house and I'll give you $1000.

Letter to the Editor - April 2008
Drug sentence too lenient
Re “Drug runner gets 18 months,” April 1.
Bev Pirie
Victoria
MY RESPONSE:
In the April 4th edition of the CJ, Bev Pirie takes issue with the sentence of a local drug runner. She states "There are young teens at risk". Sure they are, they are at risk of their OWN choices. Maybe these teens are idiots and/or maybe their parents are. We all make mistakes but we choose to make our own. The drugs are there because due to demand, not the other way around. I know someone will read this and say "if the drugs weren't available the teens would be tempted by them". This is true but does that mean if some punk breaks into my house and steals my stereo it is my fault for owning a "tempting" stereo. Besides, some people go their whole lives without taking drugs despite the fact that they are available.
