If anyone hasn't watched it yet (I bet everyone in Brampton and nearby probably heard about it by now!), here it is:
An ignorant, foolish girl complained that there are too many brown people in Brampton. She wishes to move back to Toronto, away from the brown people and the "curry" smell. She adds that all brown people need to go back to their own country.
When I first saw this video, I felt disgusted and even laughed when she openly gave out her twitter and facebook id, spelling her name. W-T-H!? The level of stupidity boggles my mind. How can she not expect the public outrage? Has she never heard of online bullying? But now, more than anything, I just feel sorry for this girl. Apparently, her father apologized to the public about her behavior and the girl has received some death threats (sigh, what do you expect!? Note to kids: THINK before posting incriminating or stupid content online because anyone can see it). She even had to go to school with a police escort by her side!
There were a LOT of video responses mocking her but the one that truly stands out for me is this one below:
Best way to address racism or discrimination? Rather than insult them, educate them instead. Long live humanity!!

Sad to see when people do things like this. I don't know what keeps causing people to hate on each other, but it's mostly ignorance, like you said. I think some people don't have enough education to truly know other cultures quite well. That's why we get these events.
