When the riot happened, I was 11 years old. I briefly remembered that the Canucks lost to the Boston Bruins in hockey. When I looked outside, it was like a sudden warzone of fire and teargas covering downtown buildings. Vancouver had a distinct burn smell for a month because of all the burning cars and buildings. I feel like Canadians shouldn't get upset about a game - even though we had a chance to win the Stanley Cup that year. It would be a more reasonable to riot if we elected someone such as a Donald Trump - then I would support the riot because who wants a wall?! Even though the Canucks lost, there shouldn't be a reason to destroy buildings. Personally, I think it was a stupid idea to damage city property and possibility face jail time. If someone damaged my property, I would feel extremely angry and would have to hold myself back. The damaged cause is misplaced and unnecessary.
The
lesson I learned in life was never trust anyone with your personal information
because they can ruin your life or career. I had one scenario back in January
of last year where I got scammed. The transaction was around thirty thousands
dollars worth of Bitcoin, at 400 USD dollars per Bitcoin. I was dumb enough to
send it all to a website because I was trying to exchange Bitcoin into PayPal,
then transfer it into my bank, as the bank knows that I am a programmer for
various websites. Luckily the website didn't scam me, but when the money
entered PayPal, I was so happy and excited I tried to transfer three thousand
to the bank. Paypal denied me, basically saying, "Let's ruin your life and
take all your money." I was depressed and angry. PayPal, a well-known
company, had just stolen my money. The more I researched about this, the more I
found out that many people have gone through similar situations with the
company. I refuse to do business with them anymore, but I genuinely hope that
there is some sort of class action lawsuit later on. They cannot get away with
this.
