Only if it's Gary. I've never seen him, but I picture him being a bigger fella!

Wow, I just re-read what I wrote and I really came off sounding like an ass. Benjamin, I did not mean to imply that you are ignorant. My rantings were directed at a mindset that looks at a couple of numbers and then spouts off like they actually know something. I know that you're not like that. We totally disagree on everything, but I know that you're not that sort of person. My response really sounded like I was going off on you and I wasn't. I sincerely apologize!! As for Gary and Larry, you still need some work, but that's ok. We still like you! I think that one day you too will be like that little bee girl in that blind melon video and find your wacky little place in the world. Hopefully it won't be in a field with a bunch of bee people in tights. That might be scary!

One reason why I don't comment on Afghanistan, Israel, etc. I will comment on our governments activities, but I don't comment on the way other countries live their lives. I have no problem with people criticizing the actions of the government. I may disagree with ones assertions, but I don't have a problem with people commenting on it. When someone makes ignorant (as in uneducated) comments on something that they know literally nothing about, then I don't care for it. His interpretation does not come from direct experience but through the filtered and veiled eyes of others. His disdain for our country seethes deeper than just a loathing for the government but extends to the people themselves. The comments that he made are evidence of that. I do not believe that we live in a racist society. You can't look at a bunch of numbers and from that derive the problem. That demonstrates to me total ignorance.

A reasonable point, apart from the fact that to the best of my knowledge, no one on this list lives in Afghanistan, yet we all seem to have opinions on the quality of life there. If you are only qualified to comment on a country, its domestic politics and its culture if you live there, we wouldn't be discussing much on here. will -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: 17 December 2001 15:49 To: CF-Community Subject: Re: I'll never understand...

Also, I'd have to say that if you could respond with some facts about america that are equally disturbing. America, a country glued to the television set, obsessed with buying things they don't need and bombing/invading foreign countries a least twice every decade (while engaged in numerous conflicts around the globe). The american idea of justice is executing people in the electric chair or dispatching them via a 'gas chamber', or the so called 'humane' method of killing - the lethal injection. A country built on slavery which still mantains a powerful racist undercurrent in its cultural make up. Major racial disparity in the US results in the incarceration of African American men at a rate 4 times those incarcerated by the former aparteid nation of South Africa. Do you want me to go on?
