Hi Paul,
I think that many people see the destruction of monuments and statues at best as - juvenile behaviour and at worst as vandalism that needs to be stopped. Not sure how all this will end. I'm simply surprised at how long its gone on for. I guess it shows how strong the American influence is globally. Mr O, It's a pity that you seemed to have missed the points I was trying to make with my summations about some Christians. mhaze, As I wrote to Is Mise there are large geographic variations in crime rates. FBI data shows big differences from state to state and city to city. Plus there are various factors that might influence a particular area's crime rate - including its population density, social and economic conditions, and so on. Reuters fact check gave FBI data - on the murders of black people reported in the US 90% were black and 7.6% of perpetrators were white. While on murders of white people 83.5% were white while 13.6% were black. As for the "great" Candace Owen? She's more like the annointed right-wing darling who demeans her own race the way most white people wouldn't have the guts to do. And I won't argue with you regarding Tony Abbott and the Coalition stopping the boats. If it makes you happy, who am I to burst your buble. http://www.crikey.com.au/2015/09/25/guess-who-really-stopped-the-boats-hint-not-abbott/ NNS, I can't argue with your logic. Individual, I don't support fundamentalists and extremists. However don't be stopped by me. If you feel so strongly about contacting those people - you go right ahead. Who knows you just may find some kindred spirits. Posted by Foxy, Tuesday, 16 June 2020 7:34:51 PM

Paul,
Go you grow your weed in the back garden or hydroponically? Posted by Is Mise, Tuesday, 16 June 2020 9:00:47 PM

Foxy,
Don't dodge the issue, you said: "In international terms, the United States is an extremely violent society, with a homicide rate far exceeding that of any other industrialized nation." Russia is an industrialized nation and it has a murder rate of 9/100,000 whereas the rate for the US is 5/100,000 which in International terms is small. So your statement is wrong and throwing in 'industrial' is simply trying to cloud the issue. Now I'll make a statement, In international terms, the USA is not a violent society. Have a go.

'As for the "great" Candace Owen? She's more like the

Foxy, Chicagos population is 32% black, 31% European white, 28% Hispanic, 5% Asian, plus a few odds & ends.
Not a very good example of the murder rate of "America" meaning a white nation. If it has a high murder rate, & high crime rate, perhaps it indicates what happens to a city as the "white" population diminishes. London is becoming a much less law abiding city. Could this be because it's population is now over 50% non white? Posted by Hasbeen, Tuesday, 16 June 2020 9:47:54 PM

should post there?
Foxy,
Yes, most definitely ! You never know there might some who'll think about the folly of their ways & could possibly be induced to look at their situation more sanely !
Now, that'd be a good outcome ! Taking in their problems only exacerbates our problems !
