I am finding it increasingly disturbing at the library that students from the a certain part of the world all get together at a big table and argue about things like whether people from certain countries should be killed in wars. Today one person, who said she was from Pakistan, was arguing that people from certain countries are "asking for war" and defending there being wars in the Middle East. I also hear constant arguing about Gaza, Palestine, and Israel, and it always gets very loud.
Keep the damn war where it belongs, and that is not in Canada. This is a country of peace, and we don't need arguments between ethnic groups playing out in university libraries, especially when people are trying to study. If you really hate a country that much and think people in that country should die because your grandparents' family was killed by people from that country, keep it to yourself. At the very least, go somewhere other than the library and argue about it.
I'm all for freedom of speech, but not only is there a time and a place, I also do not want to hear how much you hate certain countries and their people.
