Re: Any RCMP around?

"Cracker" is typically used as a racial slur toward caucasians in the south. It fits right in with poor white trash and trailer trash... my American history professor taught us that "cracker" originated in the 1800s possibly earlier in colonial America. Crackers were the poor whites at the bottom of the southern society. Some had hard times, bought bad land or failed at farming. They were the unemployed bums of America. He said that most were racist and supporters of slavery, mostly for the purpose of attempting to elevate themselves and not be the lowest class of the new world.

Anyway, I am quite fond of the Canada special paint options, especially the bright green. I wish we had more of those groovy colors available down here. Y'all can keep the pink trucks up there though.
