She said the expression on their faces don't even change. Interesting listening to that podcast right after scanning this thread.

I love how most Asians are quiet and respectful, decent citizens for the most part but they are weirdos.

You see this all the time on 7th Ave with Natives bawling for various reasons. No one every stops.

Weirdo Calgarians.

A few years ago, my friend and I got on the C-Train about 7-8pm at the crack Macs stop and a construction worker-type got on. For some reason he was immediately accosted by a group of punks. He got freaked out and got off around TD. They followed.

When my friend and I came to our senses, we got off the next stop having a feeling that guy was going to get beat up. As we walked (then started running) back to TD, I saw a lump of the guy as 20-30+ people walked by him not batting an eyelid. Because he was sprawled awkwardly along the sidewalk unconscious, I saw people walk OVER his arm with his open (and now empty) wallet beside him.

Guy was from out east, just got off work and it was his first month here. Welcome to Calgary.

It's weird how I've reflected on this numerous times during the last few years and not once did I say to myself, "hey, every single person who walked by that guy bleeding from the face on the sidewalk was white... what a bunch of selfish weirdo's."

Yep and I've done that numerous times. About 12 years ago I worked at the cuff and billy Saloon during stampede. Saw a bunch of natives fighting and knives were involved. One got stabbed in the back and it was like a water fountain spraying out of his back.

I walked right past and didn't give a rats ass. Called 911 and that's it. Unless its someone I know I'm not about to get in the middle of a brawl to play superhero.
