In other words, the objection is to people blockading roads and trains. The objection is not to First Nations specifically doing those things. Hence the picture is in poor taste, not racist.
LOL I'm sure that's what the poster was meaning, not.

It's a FN protest and the majority are FN and in the context of the insults thrown at FN in this thread, it's definitely directed at them. This whole thread is about their protest. You can dance around all you want but the truth is plain. At least be a man and take credit or discredit for your views.

People have been holding protests and marches for years and this is the first time in this country I've seen them being threatened with violence for a little inconvenience. A lot of the posters here are blinded by their hate and don't realize what they and you are saying, condoning and encouraging. It's easy to sit behind your monitors and spout your hate but I bet you wouldn't be doing it quite so bravely if you had to face your so called victims.
