The Asian Bashing Rednecks of Sutton, Ontario

I like to think that what happened in Jena, Louisiana...where rednecks hung nooses from a tree to keep black students away...couldn't happen here. That OUR rednecks are better than that.

Give them a two four, a pick up truck, and a baseball bat on a Saturday night and all they'll do is drive themselves happy. Take out a few mailboxes. And then pass out in their own vomit.... without hurting anyone.

But apparently I was wrong. Meet the Asian bashing rednecks of Sutton, Ontario.

Local youth call it "nippertipping."

It consists of locals driving around in the middle of the night, looking for cars parked near piers, docks and bridges. They then creep up behind fishermen and shove them into the lake. Sometimes the fishermen's gear is tossed in or damaged.


Some townspeople say it's been happening for decades, occasionally triggering gossip but nothing more.

"It's been happening since I was young – nippertipping," said the 20-year-old. "Everybody talks about doing it – `Oh, I went down to the docks the other night and roughed up some Asians.'

Isn't that disgusting?

And what makes it even worse is that despite the fact that EVERYONE knew what was going on... police DIDN'T consider it a hate crime. Can you believe that?

I guess they didn't expect Asian Canadians to fight back. But they did. Good for them. And now the police have changed their minds.

I hope these cowardly redneck criminals are caught and severely punished.

I also hope that the "good people" of Sutton take the time to reflect upon why something as ugly as "niptipping" has being going on in their community for so long without anybody speaking out ...or doing ANYTHING about it.

And to help these rubes work their way through this difficult time I thought I'd send them an instructional video.To show them some of the many other ways rednecks can have fun without hurting anyone...


Except themselves...

Oh yeah...rednecks are funny. Who knew you could turn a stolen supermarket cart into a portable barbecue?

But cowardly racist bullies who think "niptipping" is funny are just disgusting.

And Canada's shame...

Wow, unbelievable. And we are supposed to be the enlightened ones... that's like something I'd expect to hear about from Alabama or some other racist shithole. Sutton??

Hi JJ!! yeah it is disgusting. Now the rednecks are saying that the REAL reason they're assaulting Asians is because they are POACHING...which is bullshit.
But they can say what they want it's just vigilante racism and that's that...

If you think about it,asians do poach on OUR land.But what I think about against them is SPEAK ENGLISH OR GO HOME.

Bubba....if anyone is poaching it's up to the authorities to catch them and charge them. We can't have vigilantes running around...and any kind of violence is bad.
As for the speaking English part...you didn't really mean that did ya?

i could be wrong here but isn't Canada a bilingual country, as in you have two official languages?

Update the case went to trial Nov 26th, 2009 and no one is charged with a hate crime. Bubba needs all of our sympathy for his red neck condition. Obviously he has forgotten his roots unless of course his first language is Iroquois or Algonquin. This incident in northern York Region is disgusting. the community has decided all Asian fishermen whether they are poaching or not are to be targeted. Targeting any one group whether racial or not is prejudice. In this case since the targets are an identified racial group the hate crimes should have been pursued. Given our lax youth offender laws hate crimes propbably were not even an option.

I live in Sutton Ontario and i pass the bridge over black river everyday whether it be a walk or in my car and not once have i ever seen an Asian fishing there and not poaching and or killing the fish for the eggs and throwing it back in the water. I have not once pushed them in the lake for it but i never let it go un-noticed. First off i will ask them to catch the limit while they're up here and to release some of the fish back and if they dont i kick the bucket of fish into the lake simple as that.
