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.
It's called stereo-typing and whether you're aware of it or not, you lumped Ferland in the 'drunk Indian' stereotype with no ACTUAL evidence that alcohol was a factor in the incident.

You wouldn't want to be stereo-typed as a stupid redneck would you?
