Good post Englishman. One thing you have to bear in mind is that Canada's minority population mainly consists of Orientals, natives and east Indians (from what I've heard) where as ours mainly consists of blacks and hispanics. Blacks and hispanics are known to be more prone to crime than the afforementioned groups flooding into Canada. Now, this isn't to say that Canada doesn't have a problem as I've heard that even Asians and east Indians are starting to form gangs but it still probably isn't on the level of black and hispanic crime we see here just yet. Although I'm sure its quickly getting to that point. One thing Canada has going for it that America doesn't is that it doesn't border or come anywhere close geographically to any third world countries. Mexico is like a long turd hanging out of the ass of the United States, which is used somewhat as a funnel to bring in people from the entire region of Latin America.
I live in Florida and we have a huge problem with Colombians. People generally associate South Florida with its Cuban population, but a good portion of the Cubans have all moved north to Tampa because of the influx of Colombians. The Colombians have a very bizarre and problematic culture. They eat urinal cakes to get high, are known for marrying blood relatives, and bring their drug culture over here to the states (even Colombian churches deal drugs). They all do this instead of assimilating into American society. Colombians are considered to be the lowest of the low in hispanic society, and not even the Cubans want anything to do with them. In my opinion, Colombians are worse than any other immigrant group I have ever encountered.
Now, a lot of people might say that being that I am an American of Albanian extraction, I have no right to say the things I just said being that Albania is sort of known for being the Colombia of Europe. While that may be true, it should be known that I come from an Orthodox Christian background and therefore, I identify more with its Greek neighbors culturally than anything else. I am a big fan of Greek culture and its strong European roots, and I hope to visit that country one of these days.Edited by: Lance Alworth
