Y do they wear those huge maddalion around thier necks and y do they change thier teeth to gold to platinum? Y do they play their music so freaking loud that even thier neighbors can hear it? And y is that, in an urban neighbor hood, they always attract violence. I live in a decent suburban area and we have an african american family across the street, we never have had cops come in our area, may be just for a round but a few months later we see cops acorss the street atleast 2-3 times a month now. Y do they just attract trouble? They seem like nice people.

We should give everyone a equal chance and stop building walls. That will harm us as a society one day. Stop exercising nativism and share our space. We just need to know who comed into this country, and treat eveyone the same, not only our citizens...EVERYONE>EQUAL.

WE do live different than others, we take our freedom for granted, we abuse our 1st amendment, others countries despise us...we treat other people as barberic and we tend not to be humble...for the most part some of us are...no offense...we should be thankful to live in US, it is indeed the best place to be, and the most expensive too..

My grandmother was of english/scottish. My other grandmother and two grandfathers were of German/Russian Jewish descent. All my relatives have been living in America for about five generations. Thus, they have all lost a sense of culture. I feel that American culture is bland, and I wish to have a connection with my ethnic heritage. How do I do this? Even if I try, won't it be like pretending something I am not? I mean, culture is supposed to go from parent to child. Would it be cheating not getting culture through that process. Any advice please.

I have lived in Canada my whole life in 5 different provinces and have spent time in all 10 provinces. Never have I heard someone say "aboot"instead of "about". Where did this come from?

When you think of the word "race," what is the first thing you think about? Do you think along the "color line"? Or, do you think along the "cultural line"?

I asked Webster and he said a race was a
"1: a breeding stock of animals
2 a: a family, tribe, people, or nation belonging to the same stock b : a class or kind of people unified by shared interests, habits, or characteristics
3 a: an actually or potentially interbreeding group within a species; also : a taxonomic category (as a subspecies) representing such a group b : BREED c : a category of humankind that shares certain distinctive physical traits
4 obsolete: inherited temperament or disposition
5: distinctive flavor, taste, or strength"

Know isn’t that strange? The first and third definitions are some what contradicting the second one.

So does this mean that we are all part of one race with many different ethnic groups and ethnicities?

I would love to hear you all's answer

He never encouraged me to go to college but he always encouraged me to have a "Drive" for what I want...
I don't remember ever being poor or hungry. My siblings and I remained in private schools until Highschool and my mother only worked because she wanted to.
My aunt has MBA from NYU and she said a degree wasn't neccessary for her either and she owns 2 clinics in Houston.
Do people realize you don't really need a degree if you plan to be your own boss?

If the Libertarian party ever gained the majority of both the house & senate seats & Ron Paul was our commander in cheif, would Americans be able to handle the rush of freedoms that would follow? I'm not asking this sarcastically but as a legitimate question. Could Americans really set their own agendas? Would they know how to invest financially for retirement with out sociol security, hold a job on their own or just plain think out side of the box? With the TERIFFIC amount of extra cash/buying power available to them from reduced taxes & a strong stable dollar, not to mention increased sociol freedoms, would they just go bananas? I mean no PC, no IRS, no federal reserve, no lifestyle fears, no politicking, I mean just free to quide your own destiny in the pursuit of happiness. Like children escaping parental authority, would they end up in self rebellion, & once again ensnareing themselves in the web of the "never far away politicians(magicians!)" control. Need your input on this!

I have three kids and they are half Mexican, part polish, part scotish, and part irish. I am full blooded Mexican came the legal way and all and still get called a ******* and told to "go home". I havre made this my home for many reasons. The best one is because my family is here. My wife was born and raised here. We met in Mexico when her school did an exchange program with my family.

I want to know how I can make it easier for my kids to live here in this world and treated as an equal instead of someone who should go back to thier homeland.

I am wondering how others are feeling, because I am a christian that love atheist people..When I pray, changes take place in peoples lives..If I pray for you,.. and you experience a supernatural change, will you allow me to send you another special prayer?

Father in the name of Jesus forgive each non-believer who is reading this of all of there sins in the name of Jesus..Heavenly Father began a change, right now, in there life, to let them know that you are real..Assign 12 legions of angels to each person, as of this moment, from heaven above to war and fight the demonic spirits that are keeping them from believing..Loose a desire in them to want to seek after you for your will for there life..IN JESUS NAME, I pray to you..amen and amen..

love to you my precious brothers and sisters..You will not be the same after today..You can find me in the religious section..I love you so much !!!
