That thread is pretty bad though as well.
Maybe it's just me, but revelling in the pain and failure of a human beings off ice issues (when we honestly, do NOT have the whole story) is gross.
Anyways, I am a white guy, living in a small town in Northern Alberta who honestly isn't much of a social warrior and I think this thread is a bit over the line. Take what you will from that.
Carry on if you want, I just think some people in this thread need to look at why they are taking so much happiness that Evander Kane is struggling in life.

I think it's because he's behaved like a dickhead. Lots of easily googled references to this. If it happened to Avery or someone similar who is white, you'd see the exact same reaction. Do you think if Iginla was found to have a gambling problem that a bunch of people would be piling on and making fun of the guy? Or Chris Stewart, or Cheechoo, or Anson Carter? No, they wouldn't be because by all accounts these are decent human beings. Kane has brought this hate on himself... Can you not appreciate the irony of a guy who was flaunting his money all over the place now being bankrupt?
