    Sometimes I worry about this country. The guy who thought who had shot two Iranians did not know that Iranians are the wrong guys in the first place. Then he got the wrong guys again. Wrong twice over. And this person worked as a radar operator in a US navy nuclear sub ??!! :omg: :omg: It's not an isolated incident, none of the hate crimes intended to target a certain ethnic group managed to get the right guy. I think there is something wrong with this country's education system. Why don't you guys read a book or something :D

          To whom are you referring to as "you guys"? Edit: Common sense would dictate that most Americans don't walk into bars and restaurants and shoot people, despite what Hollywood says. So when you say "you guys", I have to take pause.

                well... if it is the RTFM maybe :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

                M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

                  Jesus. And the shooter's an ATC; an educated man, not some dumb hick. I suppose that this kind of thing has to be expected, when politicians start drumming up nationalism. Tell some people that they're allowed to hate, and they'll go at it with gusto. I dare say that some elements are already hailing the guy as a hero. I would hope that Trump will harshly condemn the action -- and then tone it the **** down.

                      "Andy Berthelsen, a neighbor of Purinton's in Olathe for the last 15 years, told the Associated Press that Purinton had become “a drunken mess” after his father's death about 18 months ago. He said he didn’t believe the shooting stemmed from hatred and that it probably resulted from Purinton's physical and mental deterioration."

                        So the "Get out of my country!" is an unimportant detail? That's what "drumming up" is all about.

                                  By "us", are you referring to the European immigrants (or their descendants) in the US? The joke's on you: A Chinese man walks into a bar in America late one night and he saw Steven Spielberg. As he was a great fan of his movies, he rushes over to him,and asks for his autograph. Instead, Spielberg gives him a slap and says, "You Chinese people bombed our Pearl Habour, get outta here. "The astonished Chinese man replied, "It was not the Chinese who bombed your Pearl Harbour, it was the Japanese". "Chinese, Japanese, Taiwanese, you're all the same," replied Spielberg. In return, the Chinese gives Spielberg two slaps and says, "You sank the Titanic, my forefathers were on that ship. "Shocked, Spielberg replies, "It was the iceberg that sank the ship, not me." The Chinese replies, "Iceberg, Spielberg, Carlsberg, you're all the same."

                                      By "us", are you referring to the European immigrants (or their descendants) in the US? The joke's on you: A Chinese man walks into a bar in America late one night and he saw Steven Spielberg. As he was a great fan of his movies, he rushes over to him,and asks for his autograph. Instead, Spielberg gives him a slap and says, "You Chinese people bombed our Pearl Habour, get outta here. "The astonished Chinese man replied, "It was not the Chinese who bombed your Pearl Harbour, it was the Japanese". "Chinese, Japanese, Taiwanese, you're all the same," replied Spielberg. In return, the Chinese gives Spielberg two slaps and says, "You sank the Titanic, my forefathers were on that ship. "Shocked, Spielberg replies, "It was the iceberg that sank the ship, not me." The Chinese replies, "Iceberg, Spielberg, Carlsberg, you're all the same."

                                        Not all Americans. Do not consider all. There are persons like Ian Grillot who still believe in humanity and thats why these people are great and not the extremist.

                                          A weak eyed race. Hmmm. We are better. I can tell the difference between Tilda Swinton and Mel Gibson. One of them's got a beard. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
