Why do people in this place feel the need to turn you into a racist or bigot just for making an observation. I hate to be the bearer of bad news here but certain ethnic groups are more prone to alcoholism problems than others and with liquor comes violence.

The reason is some people are overly sensitive. Unfortunately die to the treatment of various groups on the past they get a free ride now. I have traveled a lot and tend to make the same observations. These issues of drinking and violence are not issues of culture or color but are societal problems. A lot of less fortunate areas of western canada have dense native populations and the issues of drinking and fighting are issues off poverty. The same problems exist in ot
her areas just with different "cultures" the problem we have today iss unless you have bleeding heart for these people u r labeled a biggot.
I don't think anybody or any culture has a propensity to certain behaviors but I do not see the harm in making an observation as long as you don't make generalizations of a certain type of people. You guys need to lighten up and stop singling out alberta beef and cowtown.
