Some people here dont understand immigration that much. America treated most of its new immigrants like crap but they survived and become one of this countries greatest assets



It's a lot like how we treat noobs around here like crap. It's to test them out, see what they are made of.

Kids would always jump other kids or use weapons or run to mommy. Every kid doesn't believe in honor and is not taught by their parents about the 'right' thing.

Some kids are taught 'why shouldn't i always have the advantage in any way possible?'. Not doing things to give themselves the advantage makes no sense to them.

Many grown adults go by that standard.



Most living things go by that standard.

People like the idea of honor because it makes them feel a little more secure.

It's a lie. Do what you have to do and don't feel bad for it. That's life.

Not a very honorable thing to say IMO. I think people go further in life without having to depend or exploit someone for their own gain, even if it is offered

Most people dont go through life taking advantage - most of us play fair.


Watch the karate kid movie for a lesson in playing fair.

I'm not saying they can't. I'm just saying you don't have to if you don't want to.

Honor is imagined, but it doesn't matter. No one is right.

Bear whatever cross you want.

If the gang was comprised of native Fins the mother wouldn't have used a racial slur and the whole thing would be a non story.

Australians in general are pretty xenophobic but I think we treat legal immigrants quite well and in general they settle into society with 1-2 generations.

If you're illegal though, better watch out! Our governments like to use you as pawns in the political game.

Australians are the only people I've had contact with where the young people are also racist. Or maybe I've just met a bad sample.

Of course I've never met any Finns and judging by the Outpost they would fit that description too...
