Post Re: Jr. Czech's get robbed at hotel??

bulljive hit the nail on the head... As for franchise, he usually just gives head...
We as Canadians have an open door policy to all who come to our country... We practically bend over backwards to accomidate those who have run into some type of misfortune while they were here... Hell we give back the GST at the fcuking airport!!!Yes we want to remain a welcoming and peaceful place, however we tend to forget the type of challenges our own sons and daughters face while travelling to other countries!!! Do you think the Mexican federalies would give you a big smile, a hug and a warm place to sleep if your room was broken into and all of you luggage was knicked??? Do you think the Spanish authorities would help you out if you were mugged in Barcelona??? How do you think the guard at the Czech Rep. border (carrying a M-16) would react if you were having trouble finding your passport that was burried at the bottom of you rugsack???
My point I guess, is we as Canadians tend to want to help other who fall on hard times (wether it was from their own lack of planning or not) rather than turn a blind eye to it... Many other nations wouldn't even bat an eye in our direction if something of a similar matter occurred while we were on their soil... Something to think about yes, but in the end for me it's about karma and I'd rather be the one helping a complete stranger out rather than ignoring the problem and turning a blind eye...
Happy Holiday Czech Rep. Juniors, I hope you get gubbed on the ice!!!
