    Ritehook quote: In Europe, the nations were founded by invading standing armies, or by roving militant tribes. The US was founded by individuals with guns. And if I may be permitted a politically incorrent statement: the increase in gun violence in America is almost exclusively confined to the black and Hispanic comunities: the rate of homicide and murder by gun in the white population has remained steady (and low) for over a hundred years.

    Agree with everything you said, except for the last paragraph (see above). Very intelligent, before it turned white supreme. My only question is: If the economic classes were reversed, would it not be the whites shooting it up? It seems like it's the poor and disgruntled taking it out on everyone else. Doesn't make it right ,or white for that matter. I don't think people of color are born with a special gene to kill.

      I think it is easy to get confused with not liking America/Americans as opposed to not liking America which is the fault of your government.I was fortunate to go to the Superbowl this year(my 1st trip to the US) and I have not met a more friendly group of people abroad,CS is supremely good wherever you go and I felt genuinely welcome everywhere apart from immigration control which is something I am unlikely to be bothered going through with again as I don't like being treated like a criminal for no reason.
      Together with unwanted meddling in others nations affairs as though the US owns the world is what people cannot abide.
      This unfortunately reflect badly on the US in general and the sooner you get rid of that uneducated clown running the country the better for all of us.

        He's got a year left and I personally think he is trying to become the LAST President. I also think that if some of my fellow U.S. residents were to be found out to have voted for this idiot twice. Their voting rights should be revoked for tardism. Bush has shown the ability to run anything he is involved with into the ground, and that is not an opinion, that is fact. If the U.S. manages to make it through the next year or so, we will have to start acting like the U.S. of old. That means people in the redneck states need to stop looking for protection against a terror attack that ain't coming to their area. This country is gonna be in a civil war of ideas. Some people would like to have a dictatorship run by Jesus, and some of us would like to be left alone to live like we want with out being judged as morally corrupt.

          I guess for that same reason you question ... America .. is known as a CONTINENT .. NOT as just 1 Country ... North America is known as the upper part of the CONTINENT, that includes: Canada, US and Mexico ... and then theres the United States of America ... which I guess was your concern.

          I hate the idea of you guys thinking your AMERICA.
