'Caribou Legs': Man running to honour missing, murdered
indigenouss women
PM-me-your-psn-codes: "That's fine and all but most are other Indians killing and kidnapping the women."
[Deleted] :"Meanwhile his own sex is murdered at almost 3x the rate as the women. And let's not forget that Aboriginal men commit over 70% of the murders of indigenous women. If you want to honour missing and murdered women, start with having your chiefs realize that it's a problem with our men.
But who am I kidding, no one gives a flying fuck about male lives, unless they're unborn kids, or black! /s"

I don’t know about the situation in Canada, but I know that US reservations only have the authority to punish very minor crimes, with any major crimes being the responsibility of the Federal authorities… who routinely neglect those cases. Consequently, criminals in the reservations are free to roam and commit more crimes for many, many years, if they ever face justice at all.
Also, evil people from priviledged groups are more likely to be in a position where they can fulfil their evil desires (whether we’re talking about greed, cruelty or perversion) by means that don’t require physical violence, that don’t require them to get their hands dirty themselves, that are not technically illegal (or at least crimes they are likely to get away with), than evil people from marginalised groups. Why kidnap, rape and murder people when you can just extort sexual favours from your employees, silence them through your economic power and possible damage to their reputation, and rest assured that, even when they finally speak out years later, there will be people who will defend your actions while slut-shaming your victims?
Is it the RCMP's job to investigate crimes or do the First National take care of that? I thought it was the RCMP's job.

It's whataboutism. They don't actually care to get either problem fixed, they just want to be contrary.
The OP forgot the specific fragilities Aboriginal women suffer, thanks to the “Missing White Woman Syndrome”, which see victims from disregarded backgrounds being less searched for (just look at how many serial killers attack prostitutes).
And let's not forget that Aboriginal men commit over 70% of the murders of indigenous women.
Well, yeah, duh. More people also die on the toilet than in an airplane, not because toilets are more dangerous than airplanes, but because the difference in time is so big that it overwhelms everything else.

Exactly! People like this guy don't even actually care about the missing indigenous men, they just want people to STFU about indigenous women.
Same thing when "All Lives Matter" assholes bring up "Black on Black crime" whenever the topic of police brutality comes up. They don't actually give a fuck about black victims of crime, they don't care about black children killed by gang wars. They just want black people to STFU

Ethnicists make me hurl and deserve to be trampled by a herd of Caribou!
A fitting punishment to bigots this Yuletide Season; After all, “Caribou” is simply another word for “Reindeer”.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
