Do you eat all the smarties?

The Smarties candy commercial is on. There’s blue ones. There’s yellow ones. There’s red ones. I just like how they got a bunch of young people to sing parts of the same song in their own different style. It’s a catchy tune. originally performed by Sly and the Family Stone called “Everyday people”. We are all everyday people. Unfortunately, some do not think so.

Today there was an Aryan Guard rally in downtown Calgary. It was reported that the group had been recruiting young people in schools with cd’s. Fifteen and eighteen year old teenagers “Kelsey” and “Meghan” were quoted as saying they “like being white” and that people are “taking it the wrong way”. Talk about brain washing at its best. Take advantage of the kids when they’re minds are most vulnerable to most any impressions. So if the group claims to only be promoting remembrance to european culture and heritage, why did they place an ad looking for more recruits from outside their own province even willing to cover their damage deposits.

The group was small but the backlash from anti-neoNazi groups was much larger in numbers. And everything happened on what was supposed to be “International Day to Eliminate Racism”. When I read this title, I interpret it as a day which does not support or promote any single race. Why the Aryan group chose this day is rather obvious.

I like smarties and I sometimes eat the red ones last.
