A black American man is applying for refugee status in Canada, citing police racism. Don’t laugh.

Americans are kind of at ease ignoring our neighbors to the north. Sure, we pay attention during the Olympic Games there or during the election of a new prime minister with Olympic-quality hair. We tune in when there's a mayor with epic problems. But for the most part, Canada is just a country that's up there, with which we have few problems and do a lot of trade.

But last week, one American went further. Much, much further.

[MUDDOG]

Canada? Brrr. Soul on Ice.

Meanwhile we are accepting more refugees from Africa. Maybe they should all go to Canada since it’s so bad here.

[Little Ray]

I like this!

I wish we could export the entirety of “Black Lives Matter” to Canada, the way Mexico exports its poverty to us.

However, it would be very rude and unmannerly of us, to do so.

We need a law that states actions such as this, if completed, are understood as vacating U.S. citizenship.
Could have used that law back during the VN war era. I didn't care the anti-draft cowards went to Canada, I was happy to see them go.
But I was livid when that SOB Carter let the MFers crawl back across the border.

I say let them go. Close the door behind them. Anyone that stupid needs to live in those greener pastures ‘till the end of their days.

Why I am sure we can get a “go fund me” sight up and operational in mere minuets.

We need to charter buses...lotsa buses...school buses...yea..thats’ the ticket.

School buses, we can name it the Ray Nagen express in honor of Katrina victims.

We'll need planes...lotsa planes...huge planes...cargo planes.

A month from the start ... the demonrats and their welfare state may simply cease to exist. And take the Rinos too!

Sounds like a plan. :-)

Iran would be more fitting for him.

Black lives matter ? Then move to Iran.

The US and Canada have signed a diplomatic protocol acknowledging that neither will accept political refuges from the other. Because let’s face it, when it comes to countries suspected of political oppression neither the US nor Canada make the Hot 100 list.

This was not popular with Canadian Libs when Harper started refusing to keep our military deserters. Would not be shocked to see Trudeau do an about-face.

[Buckeye McFrog]

“Can’t you read the sign? It says the Great WHITE North, eh?”

[dfwgator]

Now if we can only get Justin Bieber to go back to Canada.

[euram]

Why didn’t he seek asylum in Africa, because Canada is filled with racist white people, too.

[Calvin Locke]

A petty criminal wants to splurge off the Canadian Welfare System as opposed to our good ol’ USA welfare?

Nah, he said he wants to work as a photog, given the dearth of cameras in contemporary societies, and open a martial arts school.

I'm sure Mr. Canty's history of issuing threats will make the Canadians see the need for yet another martial arts school to protect against the likes of refugees such as Mr. Canty.

[Uversabound]

McD’S ALONG THE WAY!!!!

I’m Loving It.

Yeah big bad America and its slavery history.

Go to hell and don’t come back.

"In the process, the team has identified 821 fatal police shootings in 2015 alone. A slight numerical majority of these shootings -- 393 -- involve white Americans. But a disproportionate share of those shot and killed by police have been black or Latino -- 345 people, or 42 percent of those who have died this year. (Together blacks and Latinos comprise 30.6 percent of the population.)" 2013 FBI reported over 50% of murders and robberies were committed by blacks no info on Hispanics was released until 2015.

Don’t let him back across the border on Election Day to vote Democrat either.

[butlerweave]

Ever see Border Security(Canadian one) ,you don’t get in Canada if convicted of a crime .so this guy better be squeaky clean

[DiogenesLamp]

With another preening Trudeau in power who knows. Bye I think I see a lot of benefits if the Canadians approve this man's application.

I would borrow a page from Fidel Castro and open up all the Prisons to anyone wanting to apply for Refugee status in Canada. 40% of them are Black males, so Canada would probably let those in.

[DoughtyOne]

Exactly. Have him turn in his citizen card at the border.

Now get!

[DiogenesLamp]

no- just all liberals....there are some very courageous conservative blacks willing to speak the truth- they are an asset to this country...

Agree.

Years ago one of my co-workers was transferred to a project in Mississippi. One of the office wags made the comment, the overall IQ in MS and MD where he was working would both go up when he transferred. I’m not sure about the Black guy going to Canada.
