"What matters is what he said, not what you think."

Karel didn't say he (she?)
thought that North Dakota sucked... etc... Why would you be so dismissive of Karel's statement if neanderpauls statement bothers you so much?
Anyway... It isn't about what comments you take as jokes and which ones you take seriously to be offensive.
Canada tugged along with America has been called a nation of desecrators, Godless infidels, all manner of religious insults by eastern Nations. On the same whim, we've been categorized by our tukes, "eh" and pet beavers. Don't let the comments get to you.
You should see playoff hockey season around here... the provinces all but go to war against one another. Leafs vs Canadians... Canucks vs Oilers... you name it, the rivalries build up to name-calling and some very entertaining and funny spats. It's all part of a competitive nature.
And then there's concept. Maybe Neanderpaul's opinion is that N.Dakota is a hole. Why are you dismissive of another who shares his opinion but want to harass Neanderpaul about it? Tell everyone to stop (see where it gets you) or save the complaining for a comment that is really undisputably unacceptable.
I'm lucky to be Canadian... everyone loves a Canadian girl
