What a clear photo and you can totally see his facial features.
Haha! That’s exactly what I thought when I saw the picture! I guess they are hoping that someone will recognize the jacket!! (but you guys did make me laugh!)
Joh’s right, next time ask him to take off the hood before taking the picture.
You know, it seems like the recent rash of sexual assault suspects are described as having ”brown” skin. Before you all jump on the name calling bandwagon, I want to point out something. When you come from a country where women are viewed as ”less” or sub human, you have this kind of activity. Culture can sometimes play a role as it may breed violent and unacceptable behaviour. I travel to eastern countries where girls are killed at birth just because they are female. I’ve worked in orphanages where the plight of females is on going abuse, yet no one bats an eye. This is what I mean by cultural behaviour that is unacceptable. I don’t know what can be done other than education at point of entry to this country but a few classes on law and respect won’t change generations of harmful mindsets against women. Of course, Canada has it’s own problems and injustices and anyone is capable of anything. Just my observations.
There was a sexual assault on the GO train and they described as having ”white” skin. Before you all jump on the name calling bandwagon, I want to point out something.

In this same page there is a sexual assault by a white guy.
@I SEE: Do you want me to send you a list of sexualt assaults, rapes, murders which are done by WHITE BORN CANADIANs !!!!. Keep this hatred towards the brown skin in the name of immigrants to yourself and you need to go to education where this mindset can be corrected.
Why are people so quick to miss the point? Of course white born Canadians commit the same kind of crimes! Did you actually READ my comment? I was making an observation and I also qualified my comment stating ”anyone is capable of anything”. There is a big problem with crimes against women in Toronto and in the world for that matter.(have you seen the reports on taxi drivers with criminal records who are also assaulting women?) Getting to the root of some of these issues is helpful in moving forward. This has NOTHING to do with ‘hatred’ towards brown skin. It has everything to do with mindsets towards woman. Why don’t you get this??? I have actually worked closely in cultures that treat women like worthless garbage. I can’t stand it when people respond with your kind of blind answer.
Yeaahh!!!
