As dismayed as I might be at the sight of Spanish

at least they've got the oeuvos to do their hating in 
public, and directly. Imagine the nutsacklessness of 
the person who feels they have to do it obliquely. :-)

I never said Barry was involved in racism, but I find it interesting that this 
youtube report has triggered such defensiveness.  

My only intent was to publish information that, frankly, I had never suspected 
to be possible.  I was shocked by the lack of any shame for being racist.  

At least in America the racists hide themselves behind labels like birther, 
or pro-Arizona immigration schemer.  

No one in any American stadium could possibly get away without a severe 
censoring if they showed such brazen hate-speech.  Not that hypocrisy is a 
better packaging of racism, but at least American racism in public has a 
healthy regard for the opinions of the majority.  If someone threw a banana at 
an African-American sport figure and yelled out monkey, he might not get out 
of the stands alive.

Just sayin'!

Probably should have taken at least a few seconds
longer...

 Hate Crimes by Country:
 http://www.nationmaster.com/graph/cri_tot_cri-crime-total-crimes

...because there are no figures for hate crimes at
this site. What Barry's linked to is total crimes,
the totals for each country.

 And since we all know how oppressive-to-women Edg
 found Spain, Rapes By Country:
 http://www.nationmaster.com/graph/cri_rap_percap-crime-rapes-per-capita

And here, oddly, he's linked to rapes *per capita*
rather than total rapes.

Understandably, in his eagerness to get back at Edg,
he wanted to link to lists showing the U.S. at the
top, which is easy if you link to the totals rather
than the per capita numbers--albeit, of course,
misleading given the size of the U.S. population.

But then why didn't he link to total rapes rather
than per capita rapes? He missed a bet there, since
the U.S. rates first in total rapes but only ninth
in rapes per capita (below Canada, surprisingly).

In total crimes per capita, the U.S. rates eighth,
below the U.K.

Indeed.

Perhaps we should advise the fellow to cancel
his trip to Seville and journey instead to 
Santa Clara, CA, where he can visit with 
enlightened_dawn11, who has claimed to be 
enlightened as a result of practicing TM.

Just look at the wisdom, equanimity, and genteel,
highly-evolved language enlightened_dawn uses
above, and in similar posts to Fairfield Life.
Notice how free of jealousy these posts are, and
how free of anger or any kind of lesser spit
human emotion. Note the way ed11 is able to see
Unity and the best in everything and everyone. 
Note also how much ed11 embodies Maharishi's idea 
of creative intelligence by *making up* most 
of what is written above, about someone she/he 
has never met.

Surely the wannabe Seville-visitor would be better
off spending time with someone who so obviously
represents and lives all the qualities and bene-
fits of enlightenment. Think of all that he could
learn from enlightened_dawn11, as opposed to the
little he could learn from meeting someone like
myself, who has never claimed to be enlightened.

The choice is clear. Spend time in a wonderful
country full of charm and history and people who
know how to live life as if living it fully were
...uh...the *point* of life. Or cancel the trip 
and go instead to a town known far and wide as 
the asshole of the greater SF Bay area, there 
to hang with someone as enlightened as ed11
and bask in her/his holy darshan.

I sure know which one I'd choose. 

H...come to think of it, I already did.  :-)
