Love that picture, but let's not be smug.
There are going to be real world punitive measures taken against the voters.
To: caveat emptor
even though only 52 percent voted to leave, a lot more want to.
There was a hard 40 percent to leave and about 20-25 percent that wanted to leave but were worried about the economic fallout.
There is less than 40 percent in Britain that drink the EU koolaid

It’s time for Americans to exercise their independence and leave Barack’s islamic caliphate.
To: Hojczyk
Listened to CCTV news which was a rebroadcast which occurred while the polls were open. The media on that station was making such bizarre statements that I thought maybe I had turned on MSNBC, CNN or one of the lame stream media stations in the U.S. by mistake. Really interesting to listen to them as they were heavily engaged in their speculation that the exit would not occur after it already had.

Yes, we were told for the last 20 years “Americans don’t want to have that discussion...”

Politicians didn’t want to have that discussion, plain and simple.

Trump is also the only candidate who has bravely taken the popular stance that radical Islamic Muslim terrorism is evil. Nonsense, both Carson and Cruz did, and a lot earlier than Trump did. In fact they pretty much all did, save Jeb. Taking a popular stance doesn't require bravery though, bravery is what is required when you have to take an unpopular stance. Anyone can take the popular route without suffering repercussions. It's easy. Nor does its popularity imply it is right. Something is either right or it is not, regardless of whether or not people like it. In fact, the right thing is usually the least popular option. But in this Trump is by no means unique.

Yes, but a lot of them are as “British” as a cow is canine.

Nope. Trump stood up and said I'll ban Muslims from coming this country. Ted Cruz replied wimpy, that's not my policy. He never got on board any of Trump's taboo breaking policies until after Trump had made it safe to do so.

Imagine if all of your strong and adventurous people emigrated, leaving only the fat and disabled.
You're imagining Scotland.

Area by area, London had the highest Remain vote in U.K. (apart from Scotland). So no surprise there, the two results accord.
To: Hojczyk
Yes.

Not that many. According to
wiki. 87.1% are white. Others are mainly in the large metropolitan areas.

The EU is mainly
about economics. According to
wiki:
"The EU traces its origins from the European Coal and Steel Community (ECSC) and the European Economic Community (EEC), formed by the Inner Six countries in 1951 and 1958, respectively."

This was also a nice F.U. to Barack Obama who stuck his nose into it where it didn’t belong...... ha haaaaa
