This is bugging a lot of people. Thoughts?
"Pretty fly for a white guy"
I'm tired of this racism.
Cry me a river. Their situation was no bleaker than millions of others in this country. Blame it on the parents, blame it on his family, blame it on his friends, blame it on the "system." Sorry, there are only TWO people to blame it on: Tamerlan and Dzhokhar.I read the article. Gives some decent insight as to their downfall.
They are total hypocrites how they would get mad when people said
Muslims were terrorists. They thought 911 was staged.
What really did them in is when their parents divorced, and father left the country.
Their situation in America was getting grim so they took it out on us.
I'm not really bothered by the cover. I find Miley Cyrus, and todays
pop stars far more offensive.

Seriously. They have taken this global warming, sorry "climate change" since warming actually slowed and reversed briefly there, thing too far. As if ice melting is the biggest catastrophe this world has ever known.
Anyway, I'm obviously missing something because I don't understand why people are supposedly mad. Someone spell it out to me, I guess.
You mean like the societies that condone honor killings?SChool shootings,bombings, and the like will always be prevalent in societies that value pride over honor. I am not an America hater but this is the one thing in our country that drives me insane. Most Americans use the words pride and honor interchangeably. It is better(in America) to be infamous than average,fun than reliable, and stubborn than reasonable. I really think that by placing more value in honor and avoiding prideful behavior we can have a safer,healthier, happier society.
Should be called pride killings. It's their pride that has been hurt not their honor.You mean like the societies that condone honor killings?

I'm not saying any other culture is better in this respect(I don't have the requisite experience to comment). I am saying that these acts are usually either done for prideful reasons(infamy,best god) or hurt pride(teased,rejected). If we were less prideful and more honorable I think these things would happen less.
The Klingons are better. That's about it.
