Wow, Golf a sport for Rednecks, who knew?
Vancouver and the lower mainland of British Columbia, long a bastion of multiculturalism and diversity got a direct bogey in the “Gonads”, when a local golf club decided to ban all membership (read Asians) to non speaking members. Much like the USA LPGA has just ruled. The LPGA have been quoted as saying “The Yellow Horde is ruining Golf”!
It is said the majority of these policies are directed at the Korean community, whose inability to understand or speak English has resulted in numerous infractions on the golf course.
Guess one forgets a time, when Blacks, Mexicans, and other ethnics were barred from membership based on the colour of their skin.
Though Blacks and Mexicans were only barred from membership they were most certainly welcomed with open arms by Golfers everywhere, as long as their role was carrying Whitey’s Golf Clubs, serving tasty food and refreshing beverages, and of course keep them putting greens immaculate, Boy or Massa gonna give ya a Whupping!
As for me, I am thinking Jews were not even allowed to carry anyone’s golf clubs in the past let alone even get past the gate.
Hence racism was even worse for Jews I would imagine.
Yep, when all is said and done, nothing like the old days, as when they say “get yer arse to the back of the bus” memories and know your place!
Cause Apparently GOD only like Whitey!
Yeehaa, white pointy friggin hats all around! Just remember what goes around, comes around and Karma, much like Payback is a Bitch!
Cause ya know, if Obama ever becomes President, ya’ll will hear a loud noise, that noise will be the collective “Spincters of some “Democrats and Republicans” going, “I thinks ah jus Pooped myself”!

Golf club limits members to English speakers

COQUITLAM, B.C. – A prominent private Vancouver-area golf club has developed an English-language-only policy for its prospective members, similar to the one the LPGA Tour has said it plans to implement for its international players.
Vancouver Golf Club in Coquitlam, B.C.’s second-oldest golf course, has recently begun rejecting membership applications from individuals who can’t speak English.
General manager Brent Gough, whose club has played host to two previous LPGA Tour events and hopes to land another one within the next five years, said the club changed its policies after it encountered problems with some of its new Korean members.
The Coquitlam area has a large Korean population and Gough said many members of the local Korean community had joined the club in recent years.
Some of them were not proficient in English. “It got to a point where we had signed up a lot of Korean members and it wasn’t long until they were breaking many of the rules and weren’t participating because they couldn’t read anything or speak or communicate with us,” Gough said Thursday.
Below is my story last week on the Ladies Professional Golf Tour “LPGA”, banning Asians who cannot speak English.
Yep, the new Modern golfer, dressed in daisy dukes and cut off tees, a “whacking stick and golf ball” and that is just the men golfers.
