    Can you make some sense of the argument you're trying to make?

    What does this have to do with the thread topic, or even the post you're replying to?

    By faking someone else's culture you think it is building your own?

    It doesn't go against what you said, it is an addition to what you've already said.
    Own culture, no - Own accomplishments, yes.
    I gave you only a taste. Do you want me to write half the day?
    True, but I am only in agreement with you 300%. :nod:

    Your response (and mine) are with regards someone's original statement about being ashamed of being white or being denied whatever pride a white person might feel.

    In the hypothetical instance of you hiring me because I am white I will not "enjoy the privilege" of your hypothetical racist bias because I do not consider myself racist and I won't feel shame over it. I may not like you very much for it but that's another issue. I might even conspire against you because of it.

    Yes when both parties sold out and disemboweled an economy that once served the people so the top tier could max out their own profits taking away security this inevitably creates social problems like drug addiction.

    Compared to our past, america sucks for working people as our middle class implodes.

    In the past americans had the democrats to look out for them but thanks to clinton most people dont have a party that keeps the elites from selling out average people. We have one party but with two heads. That party does not represent most americans but just a few.

    The Princeton Study evidenced that using congressional record . Msm didnt inform Americans that our republic was a farce. Yet many of us didnt need a study to notice our pay to play system . And how money talks.

    What goes around, comes around.

    NOTE the photo on the right. Not a single bullet hit Jesus. As Jules Winnfield would say: "About the miracle we just witnessed. I mean, it could be that God stopped the bullets, or He changed Coke to Pepsi"

    There are many more articles, videos and pictures you can review at your leisure. The point being that the widespread racism of the very recent past is till poisoning our society today. While the Nazis may have been bad other people were far, far worse and their evil still endures.

    You are jumping to grand conclusions and skipping over the minor ones that actually build the foundation of the final analysis. Here is today's question that I have selected specifically for you: "Who had the gun - the white man or the Indian?" Oops! Sorry! I mean, "The white man or the black man"?

    So the inventions/ discoveries of US citizens aren't US inventions? How do you come to that conclusion?

    Quite welcome!

    Im a Trump hater, and a Trump supporter hater. I dont really see any issue with designating them as a terrorist organization.

    But I wouldn't support violating Mexico's sovereignty in order to pursue them. We should not, for example, be sending armed drones into Mexico airspace without their express consent or request.

    I would support sending in special forces for covert raids without Mexico's consent. Basically, any solution or action, should require Mexico's participation.

    The cartels are terrorists and it is unintelligent to say otherwise.

    We are housing half their damn population. It is not clear what their sovereignty is any more, their drug cartels have more power than their politicians. At this point, Mexican drug cartels pose a far greater threat to America than Muslims in the Middle East. America should pull all those troops out of the Middle East and begin deploying in Mexico.

    Well the Sinaloa & other cartels trade in oil, undermine sanctions and apparently went for training in Iran... I think they should have been designated terror organisations a long time ago
