Bruce Allen is not a racist!

For those of you not in the know, People are getting their knickers in a bunch over comments made by Bruce Allen on his CKNW editorial show on Sept. 13 (look it up, I'm too lazy to link to it.) It's quite clear that he's not being a racist in this commentary, but instead stating his opinion about how people come to this country and decide that they don't want to follow our rules and laws. This isn't racist! What's wrong with telling people to obey the laws of this country?? Don't approve of your daughter's husband? fair enough... but don't kill her! Don't like the fact that you can't drive your crappy honda 150km/h on knight st? Fine! But that doesn't mean you actually SHOULD.

I just don't have the energy for a good long-winded rant right now.

It's even worse than that. His original commentary was actually defending immigrants because he was noticing they've been getting discriminated against lately. He clearly opened it up with this quote: "If I didn't know better, it would seem that there has been a lot of immigrant-bashing going on these past few months".

The spin doctors really went to town on that one.
