And Canada gets the 6-0 win over Austria.  I think Luongo should get the start against the Finns.

Screechy?

You're the one whining and refusing to carry on the conversation because your delicate sensibilities have been offended.

I was just asking a question.  Not sure how that amounts to a shitpile worthy of your screechy response.

If not racism, I asked you what word you would use to describe someone who had a theory for differentiating people based on race?  If you cant defend your position so be it.  But I would hardly call my inquiry "screechy".  Your response - or lack of a reasoned response - would probably be better characterized that way.

Indeed your response was best described as chicken shit. Using a rhetorical question rather than just calling him right out. <_<

Racism implies the belief that one race is inherently superior to another, not simply to note that there are differences.

Imagine how butthurt he would have been if I did that.  Instead I tried to get him to understand what he was actually doing.  I think he honestly believes he is not being racist.  In the same way that people honestly believed that dark skinned people couldnt play hockey not so long ago.

What differences should be noted between the "races" and how does one define "race"?

PRC

Kunitz should also sit for the Canadians and Patrick Sharp is back in.  Kunitz looks totally lost out there, nice idea to bring him, but it was a mistake and he needs to sit.

Subban should also sit.  He made a bunch of bad reads / pinches that resulted in scoring chances for the Austrians.  That can't happen against the Russians, Finns, Americans, etc.

Luongo gets the next start.  He looked way more comfortable out there than Price.  Price would be probably be fine but Luongo gets the edge on experience.

I think you miss the point of the artificiality of dividing humanity amongst "races".

You think incorrectly.
