Couldn’t tell that fact from the rhetoric flying around.

Almost everywhere there are degrees of xenophobia, ranging from raised eyebrow to going on an active hunt and slaughter of the “outsiders” when it comes to the various races.

America is most definitely NOT a “race”, but a culture, perhaps the most inclusive in the history of the world. Anyone may become an American, but the emphasis, which has apparently been lost recently, is on accepting that set of standards and ideals, and abiding by them, with a decent respect for, FIRST, the principles as stated, then to all the symbols and attributes assigned to those principles.

You may or may not agree with your neighbor on implementations of policy, but respect is always in order.

There are large numbers now crowding here who have little or no respect for all that has been here, and its history worked out through trial and error by all persons of good will. Either they learn the particulars of that history, and how the various compromises have been worked out, or they are free to leave for wherever else in the world that they believe will agree with their pernicious dislike of “the American way”.

Or as I prefer to call it, the “Cowboy code”.

Well that little bru-ha-ha over in Rwanda a few years ago when the Tutsis and Hutus got into with panga machetes and it and left hundreds of thousands dead does not count as they were all the same color.

Then there was that incident years ago when hundreds of people were slaughtered crossing over from Bangladesh into India. Speared and arrowed. Again same color.

But maybe that is why we no longer worry about who is slaughtering whom in CHICAGO as they seem to be all the same color.
Only when a white kills a black do we in the USA scream RACISM! There is no reciprocation in such cases. Racism only goes ONE WAY. (Feel the sarcism)
