What is your problem? It wasn’t in GD, and even if it was, you made an assertion without any attribution.

So, based on a sample of the few Canadians you know, all of which you have asked about Castro, you feel that you can judge Canadians?

More than that, you feel that it is appropriate to try and draw a parallel between Castro and acceptance of gay marriage?

What the hell is your problem?

I think **double h** was being…um… I’ve lost the word, but I think he was aware of the irony of sterotyping **WV\_W** for sterotyping. It made me smile at least.

Let’s see… because of what has already been asked of you?

Put up, or shut up.

Preferably the second, IMHO.

Or maybe I could just wash my hands of this thread, Green Bean 🙂

Should I have dared to make a statement like that in MPSIMS? Apparently not.

Am I going to apologize for my opinion? No.

Am I going to sit here and let you insult me because of it? No. You are free to do so, but I will not waste minutes of my life reading it.

So have at it as far as I’m concerned, I’ll never know either way.

Ah, of course. The bulletin board equivalent of putting your finger in your ears and going “La la la la la, I can’t hear you!”

Honestly, if you can’t even defend your actions, why do you post in this thread?

Yes. We all love Fidel. We adore Fidel. Fidel is our idol. I want to blow Fidel. I think seventy-year-olds with beards and really big cigars are totally hot.

This is all because, as everyone knows, Canadians are all communists. And we’re COMING TO GET YOU! LOCK UP YOUR SONS OR CANADIANS WILL STEAL THEM FOR HOMOSEXUAL ORGIES WITH COMMUNIST DICTATORS! AND MARRY THEM! WITH CIGARS!

YAAAAHHHHHHH! We’re taking over the world!

WV\_Woman did something similar here:

[http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=122735&highlight=breast+implants](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?threadid=122735&highlight=breast+implants)

Because we have _heard_ of breast implants, that is supposed to prove her point that “insurance pays for a lot of cosmetic stuff.”

😕

Oh no! Will you guys stay north of the 48th if we let you have the Stanley Cup back?

Look, there is plenty of concrete evidence that Canadians don’t have the best judgement:

1. Anne Murray.
2. Celine Dion.
3. Poutine.

I rest my case.

Well, I think [Benton Fraser](http://duesouth.com/consulate/cast/gross/picture2.html) (the very fetching Mountie from “Due South”, played by Paul Gross) counterbalances Celine Dion, and a few others too. All-in-all, Canada has exported quite a few talents.

What’s all this about Castro?

Oh my God. My wish come true much sooner than I thought. A pit thread about the latest idiot we have onboard. I have read a few of her posts and I knew a pit thread was coming. I just didn’t want to be the one starting it but now that we are all here together, let me say this: “ **WV\_Woman, you are an idiot** ”.

The post already mentioned would suffice as proof but your post in the “should insurance and medicaid cover routine circumcision” confirms the point.

And in the [thread where we are discussing whether the US should ratify the protocol related to the prevention of torture](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?s=&threadid=127335&pagenumber=2) you spout this idiocy which contributes zero to the matter being discussed:

Yes, you are an idiot of the highest order.
