The French Were Right

[Kieran]

I switched to French also because I'm a lazy bastard and translating is boring ,especially when knowing that half of or more of the savour of my post will be lost.

As opposed to perhaps 90-95% of your posts being "lost"?

Good choice.

moi je te comprends tres bien cousin.....

as for English/French having problems.....its the usual.....most being afraid or to lazy to learn the others language.....so they prefer lashing out hate.....

and yes we have a thriving chinese community.....doesn't all cities have this:D

and the law is a little harsh....Montreal has become a very international city.....and English is very much used.....yet on the outskirts its mostly French....any of you smart one's able to Balance that for us please....all idea's are welcome.

PING.....donne moi ta raison S.V.P.

it's up to you to try an online translator (even if I've done my best to make such tool puke when trying to translate my posts )

[Kieran]

Slo-
I know another language, I don't care to know yours. And when it gets right down to it, you spew your fair share of "hate".

Straffo-
It is NOT up to me to use a translator. It's up to you to place your opinions into the medium it will be understood. Your thoughts are not profound enough for anyone to bother to translate, I'm afraid to say...

Et paf on est revenu aux idées préconçues ...

glad to hear you like sharing your ideas.....If I spew out HATE...its because HATE was spewed out at me:aok...I'm like a big fat cushion....it just bounces off and goes back right in your face.

I'm not claiming to be smart but you might try a little FREEDOM and let people speak what they will like we do here in the US?

You and some others keep saying that. Yet when some of your racist and draconian practices are exposed it's "I don't make the laws here"? If you don't then who does? Surely you can do better than that?

you shouldn't be so serious Iron....your choice of words might be a little off base.....you REALLY shouldn't talk about racism....or even dare preach about it.

Allow me to jump in here. I will try to respond in SLO SPEAK

He is serious.....so what?...what are you going to do about it....his worlds are right on the money..........talking about racism is a good thing, you only hate it because you are defending laws that are racist......You would have made a good policeman in Germany in 1941 after all you did not write the laws you are just following them.....  (insert totally inappropriate similes here).......he can do whatever he wants because unlike you he is not an idiot.................

Nuke what is your problem with people no respecting their law ?

You can say what you want : it's their law

The only having trouble with this Habu but we all know how insecure he is.

@Torque : it's perhaps a anal law but how should they deal with a langage imperialisme  ?

Why don't you enlighten us all on how insecure I am Straffo? Would you like me to enlighten everyone on what I think of you (using many quotes and examples from your posts of course)?

The only think here that is wrong is that you think that law is worth defending because it attacks non french speakers. Interesting how fascist laws are ok in your world as long as they are written and administered by french people.

History will judge Bill 101 and the people behind it much less tolerantly than our present population. We prefer to live in denial for some reason. However it is good to see that no matter how fascist the law is, there are people who will support it because it is attacking others and not themselves. It reminds us all of how the death camps in WW2 came to be.

I believe that the point  straffo is trying so earnestly to make is that..... his puppy rides a green bicycle while wearing an enormous garden.

I guess it's more about the way he says it tho.   Hard to believe that such a romantic language would die out!
