  Okay....well....I brought it up because you apparantly always see only the negative about the US.

  Actually, I don't always see the negative about the US...I know it can be much better than it is, is all.

  But even after the disaster with Katrina, we didn't have mobs of angry men burning down schools, cars, warehouses...etc., now did we? Hmmm..wonder why that was?

  Not yet...but if you'll remember back a few years ago there was a thing that happened in LA that pretty much burned South Central to the ground. Two years ago Cincinnati went up in flames. Also just in the past 2 weeks or so portions of Toledo went up in flames.

  Like I said it may not be an excuse......but when you don't have a voice in society how is anyone going to hear you? All the silence brings is more anger.

  I wasn't meaning to offend eyebrow.

  thanks...I shouldn't have been offended, I mistook the tone of your font methinks...sorry about that.

  I guess we have to agree to disagree....The LA Riots...that was disgusting, absolutely, and what happend in Ohio...absolutely. I just think somtimes there are groups that use racism and poverty as an excuse to be violent. When you get mobs of people together, they do stupid things.

  The Democratic and Republican parties are good examples of that.

  IMO racism will be used as an excuse to cover for islamic terrorism. Before 9/11 it was used as a cover here too. The major reason the hijackers weren't investigated beforehand was our gov feared they would be labeled racist for investigating muslims. They backed off. After the fact everyone passed the blame onto our gov. I expect the same will continue.

  I think the problem with muslims will continue and political correctness will stop the needed response. If we do wind up with a world war 3 I think the past few years events will be the root. Paris may just be another stage in a possible brewing world war.
