Leopards Ate My Face

Here is my most Canadian reaction.

Bwahahahahahaaaaa... No.

Et pour l'autre langue officielle:

Honhonhonghonhooon... Non.

Lol get fucked. Sent with love from Canada.

"Come to Las Vegas! Win a free trip to El Salvador if you accidentally get swept up in an ICE raid!"

Fascism is unpopular.

Shocking I'm sure.

Lol.

Did they think owning the libs was going to be free?

Canadian here. Nice try, ICE.

I'm American, have never been to Vegas and was planning a trip. Then all my bills went up. My insurance alone tripled. I now fear traveling state to state as I don't trust the police in red states so no driving through them. I no longer trust the TSA to not arrest me for what I post online so no more flying. I think I will stay right here for the foreseeable future as travel just isn't important to me right now. Would I love to travel? Yes. I need to feel safe and secure in it and to not be financially ruined by it. Right now I just need to focus on making sure my housing and food is secured. I don't have time or security to focus on anything else.

Imagine treating your friends like garbage and then being surprised when they don't wanna hang out anymore. My country literally threatened to invade both of our closest neighbors and friends and are now shocked that they hate us. Americans are the neighbor that constantly blasts music with their windows open and steals everyone's shit and then bitches when they don't get invited to neighborhood parties. The man-child of the Americas.

Sorry, but your federal government snatches people off the streets and sends them to concentration camps. We know of at least one Canadian citizen that was kidnapped by ICE, who then died in their custody.

This is in addition to your president threatening to annex us, and starting a trade war for no discernible reason.

No, I will not be visiting. A regime change won't help either.

It will never go back to the way things were, and that's on you collectively.

I can't believe that threatening Canadians didn't make them want to come to the US and spend all their money.

Maybe it would help if our President wasn't threatening Canadian sovereignty, and the cult wasn't cheering it on.

Fuck off America. 🇨🇦’s not coming back. You’re too dumb to even know why. 🖕🖕🖕

The mayor of Las Vegas is a democrat, not a member of the face-eating leopards party. I'm too busy to look it up right now but I'm going to bet that the Las Vegas City and surrounding county is probably one of the most consistently Democratic parts of Nevada. Of course Canadians should still stay away. Any non-american should just not come, but this is not lamf

I'm sure this is not a rare thing on Lemmy, but even as an American sitting in the US I see these headlines and think "lol get fucked."

Probably 100 Million people in this country need to be shocked into global reality. I worry just how bad things will have to get before that happens, though. It would be great to have an economy that would let me retire some day, sure, but the loss of institutions and technological advancement is sad for both us and for people that don't even exist yet.

And I'm not trying to be anti entertainment / gambling / prostitution, but Vegas is pretty low on the priority list of the american institutions trump is disintegrating. It has high international visibility though.

We need you...r money!! And we miss you...r money!!

Good. Its working then.

Most of the comments are talking about ICE and Canadians disliking the current American regime, which is true. But also Vegas isn't fun anymore. It's so overpriced for what it is. The ruthless corporate nickel and diming exploitation has ruined Vegas as a destination.

If the mayor of Las Vegas wants people to visit, instead of begging Canadians to come back, try telling MGM and Caesars to entice visitors with some deals and value for their money.

So much of Nevada is a handful of mobbed up white nationalists and ultra-conservative Zionists profiteering off the sweet and tears of a migrant Latino working class. The city is a hive of scum and villainy kept afloat by the hard work of the large, active, and occasionally quite radical labor left.

If it wasn't fully immersed in US military bases and California Techie Fascists, it could be ground zero for a full blown socialist movement. Instead, it's just a pit where natural resources go to burn, so that a few dozen oligarchs can be billionaires and a few million service sector workers can enjoy above average wages.

Maybe we just push the whole thing off the Hoover Dam already.

Was just in the city. Everyone was telling me how bad it got. I had a great time. Didn’t have to make a reservation for the Wynn buffet. I just walked right in. Then the Uber drivers were telling how bad things have got for them. From 15k a week to maybe 2-3K. Same thing for bartenders and waitresses.

Have the day Nevada voted for.

“International travel is way down. People are not coming to the United States,” Berkley said last month. “’

I guess international travelers don't like being assaulted by Trump's Gestapo and disappeared into a gulag. Who knew?

"We have a number of very high rollers that come in from Mexico that aren’t so keen on coming in right now"

I wonder why. /s

Las Vegas is a city built for a different era, and we're not in that era any more. I really don't see it re-surging, at least until Trump allows fights to the death at MGM Grand. Kinda /s.

As the mayor of Las Vegas, I’m telling everybody in Canada, please come. We love your money, we need your money, and we miss your money,” Berkley said during a press conference this week

This is what I read

"We love you, we need you, we miss you." Said the abuser after you start to leave them...

Fuck Vegas. You get what you voted for, morons.

From Canada with love: fuck you

Aw gee, that sounds like a really specific problem that would have really specific cause and solution, I wonder what it could be.

Isnt Vegas a conservative shit hole? As a Canadian fuck off. I saw that bald maga prick from pawn stars complaining about the lack of tourism, well you voted for this shit

If she wants tourism, she must make a promise: that ICE will be arrested on sight, and that the Nevada State Guard will stand strong against any National Guard unit that is enforcing totalitarianism.

Why would I want to visit any city in that fascist shit hole when there is an entire world of free countries to visit.

Too bad MAGAts have chased away people from entering this country.

I’ll stay in my genetically diverse country of Canada and if I feel like it, I’ll visit any one of the many casinos we have here and keep my money in the greatest nation on earth.

I like people of colour, ethnic origins and choice of religion or lack there of, and honestly, I enjoy feeling safe amongst my brethren and not worrying if myself or my neighbour will be pulled out of their bed because they were born the wrong skin tone or race and sent off to a desolate jail in another country not of their own.

America the fascist can rot and I’m enjoying watching it start to implode.

I feel sorry for the good Americans caught up in this, but you have a line item in your constitution to fight this sort of thing. It’s up to you all to choose what you do with that.
