Driving in the Downtown Eastside- Vancouver, BC

Me, my mom, and my brother driving through the Downtown Eastside of Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Please note that this area does have quite a lot of poverty, but it is NOT the worst part of the area. Also, my brother is a total nerd, and yes, my family is weird. XD

Also, well we where in Vancouver, we ran into people we think are part of the Mafia of the area. No joke.

You guys are FUCKING IDIOTS. Get a life. Go back to your HICK town. There is more crime and murders in little towns like Surrey or Port Moody than the Downown Eastside. Poverty, mental illness and drug disease are nothing to laugh about. You IGNORANT DUMB FUCKS. (Oh, and buy a fucking map next time you`re in the city)

Hahaha wow, i'd say drug disease is something to laugh at, especially considering they bring it on themselves... i agree that poverty is nothing to laugh at, the same goes for mental illness.

You must honestly have no life if you find entertainment in violently criticizing peoples casual videos.

Don't worry, you're not the first person with no life and a retardedly short fuse and who obviously has ADHD that's made a comment on one of my videos. :)

Hope you find a girlfriend and a life soon.

@katvolver We all have our way of escape and poor choices lead us into paths we spend years trying to get out of.

If the individual who left the comment your are so humored is angry there maybe a reason. could it be that he understand human emotions? and has the ability to relate?

Please try to step away from such ignorant remarks. I ask you kindly, it only adds to the problems in society today when we cannot open our eyes to these issues, and open our hearts to understanding.

@AidaKhanoom7 Lol, I was like 13 when I made this video. And 15 when I replied so angrily. I'm 17 now.

also known as the drive............cool place,cool people

[medular]

Not the DTES, but the unique and interesting neighbourhood known as The Drive. If you're going to make fun of some place at least do a bit of research and find out where it is.

@katvolver

I see, well how do you feel about the comment now? I would really like to know what your views is now...if you don't mind. :) It is a very important social issue I am always curious about, an individuals view on an unaccepted social issue that rarely gets any attention (in regards to aid, and support from the community) over time.

@katvolver

I do not agree with your comment " i'd say drug disease is something to laugh at, especially considering they bring it on themselves..."

You have no right to say anyone brings anything that can be only compared to a nightmare on themselves. You haven not lived their lives, or seen their struggle, and my reply to your comment is only to encourage you to be more aware of the diversity in struggles and how others deal with it.

OMG, could you at least change the bloody title. I mean seriously, did you honestly believe that what you were seeing was the most povertized part of N.America? If that was the case, then N.America would be one kick ass continent. But no.

What a bunch of idiots...you are driving through Commercial Drive area...aka East Vancouver...it's not even the Downtown Eastside...LOL...so much for being informed...Commercial Drive is known as the Italian section of Vancouver. DUH!!!

[slimmerskimmer]

Commercial Drive is in the east side but the Downtown east side is more like Main and Hastings st , ( I've see vpd smoke crack at the Balmoral hotel in the back room in the bar I'll never forget it )
