If There Was A Point I'd Make It And Poke You With It

  1. And your point?

    Finns hate Russians. That goes back to when Russia took about half of Finland.

    That said, I have seen Finns in Russia and damn if they aren't the biggest drunks ever. Russians get plastered, but it is bad form to get blotto. They pride trying to look sober. Finns on the other hand go nuts over the cheap vodka in Russia and pass out in the streets, hotel lobbies, elevators, you name it.

    Then again I have seen that in Helsinki on a Friday night and that is drinking vodka at $15 a shot. Of course a lot of Finns make their own home vodka and drink that before they go out.

    As for Somalis, yeah there is prejudice. Given Somali terrorism, part of it stems from that. Some of it is run of the mill fear or dislike of the outsider. I am not justifying it, but I am hardly surprised by it.
