[American in Israel]

Actualy a pretty good line that pointed out that in that area a large percentage of the population is not Americans.

Those that are, and shoot at cops over a 50 dollar ticket are not what I consider Americans anyway. Some how a mans life is worth more than not having to pay a fine ya think?

The butcher, the baker the candlstick maker, not the killer, the drug pusher and the rioting vandals are my fellow countrymen.

Since you didn't quote what you were replying to and since I only responded to two posts, I'll only say that I was referring to the ignorant post about LA being "a third-world country." I'm an American living in LA and not real wild about sweeping generalizations. I'm not a "killer, the drug pusher and rioting vandals" (and for that matter, not "the butcher, the baker the candlestick maker" -- :-] ).
