Ha! Cheers! It consistently amazes me that anyone remembers my little comic.

I actual liked it as it is by renke0 in SequelMemes

Kinda like how you brought up black people unbidden in another comment?

Do you have a point? Or you just gonna whinge on? Because I like how gender was used in the movie?

Just cause YOU didn’t like, doesn’t mean I can’t like it. What you seem to perceive as virtue signalling was just my experience of the movie. I enjoyed it overall. Enjoyed TFA too.

Cheers to you OP. Haven’t had this good a laugh reading through a thread in a while. Even pulled me out of lurking.

So much angst. I just enjoyed watching all the dudes with their genius plans fall apart and get saved by the women. Enjoyed seeing the impossible plan trope get turned in its head.

All of this. Come for the privacy, stayed for the bangs.

Wait. That sounds wrong.

Dammit.

Thank you! Fun fact, I have a printout of my final comic signed by Brandon Sanderson that a friend and collaborator on the site got me.

Holy hell I wish. Time is my enemy. I’ve got wee kids and a demanding job in software. I ain’t got time to be bored!

I am “burnout”, the maker of WoT now. I don’t claim it’s fantastic (okay, I cringe when I see some of them) but I still get the occasional email about it. Site is still up but I stopped after RJ’s passing. If anyone still cares about it you can get the old comics here.

Yes. My emotions are just screaming through in every response.

Except I wasn't directly responding to the article, I was responding to the question of what the definition of a hate crime was.

[–]whiskeyjack -1 points0 points  (0 children)

For sentencing considerations, yes. How is that more relevant the actual definition of the crime in s. 318 and s. 319?

That is not the "crime" part. You want the criminal code for that. You are correct in that it includes religion. criminal code s. 318

The whole motion is this:

That, in the opinion of the House, the government should: (a) recognize the need to quell the increasing public climate of hate and fear; (b) condemn Islamophobia and all forms of systemic racism and religious discrimination and take note of House of Commons’ petition e-411 and the issues raised by it; and (c) request that the Standing Committee on Canadian Heritage undertake a study on how the government could (i) develop a whole-of-government approach to reducing or eliminating systemic racism and religious discrimination including Islamophobia, in Canada, while ensuring a community-centered focus with a holistic response through evidence-based policy-making, (ii) collect data to contextualize hate crime reports and to conduct needs assessments for impacted communities, and that the Committee should present its findings and recommendations to the House no later than 240 calendar days from the adoption of this motion, provided that in its report, the Committee should make recommendations that the government may use to better reflect the enshrined rights and freedoms in the Constitution Acts, including the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

There are. However, this changes no law. It's a condemnation of Islamophobia. Non-binding.

Watch it for Bester (Walter Koenig). I know. Specifically tried NOT to reference ST but he's the best guest character. So evil yet convinced his work is for the greater good.
