Another one bites the dust

The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

He claims to be a self proclaimed critic of "Western so called civilization", and an inferred enemy of Charlie Kirk. I didn't hear a single thing to love from this man
What exactly did you not like what he said about Kirk’s death?
I appreciate his honesty about not mourning Kirk's death. But, some of his other inferences rub me wrong.

Implying the "far right" had him killed as an expendable pawn.

Calling Kirk anti immigrant (he wa anti illegal immigrant. Big difference)

Stating the American system created both Charlie and his killer, without identifying what it is in the system.

He compares Kirk to the cheering squad during a battle, with an analogy of the Muslims fighting the non-believers. Kirk was anti-violence, and,his analogy infers that the war between Muslims and the West had already started, and he supports the continuation until the west is destroyed.

He claims we are in the late stages of failed capitalism in a dying empire, and implies that is the reason Charlie got shot, while completely discounting extremism.

His entire undertone is very anti-christian, and anti-democracy, while being very pro Muslim and as he offers no solutions, he leaves a strong impression that the solution is yet another Muslim theocratic dictatorship.

I see nothing to love.
The Cup is soooooo ours!!!!!!!

This is ideological fundamentalism on both poles, and it practically guarantees more violence imo. There seems to be no common ground. I think it's very dangerous.

He’s Muslim why wouldn’t he be a proud Muslim? lol. I heard no desire from him to wish for the demise of the west, whites and Christianity. I mean you could take the same speech he made but insert a white American in his place switch the wording around from a western, white Christian perspective and I bet you wouldn’t be offended by it, would you? lol. You’d call it fair most likely.

Exactly, it’s very concerning. It’s not trending well on all fronts.

Robert Redford's gone - so many classics, but The Sting would be a standout for me.

Three Days Of The Condor, Jeremiah Johnson. So many great films. He was one of the best.

Four time Stanley Cup champion Bernie Parent has died.

First, Giacomin, now Parent - not a good week for HOF goaltenders

So, if a team was eliminated by Philadelphia in the playoffs in the 1970's, did they go on Parental Leave?
Whatever you do, always give 100 %!
