5. So you think we should be the worlds policemen?
Edited on Wed Nov-25-09 03:47 PM by JonQ
Invade and kill brown people to force them to adhere to our beliefs? You probably want to forcibly convert them to christianity too.

America has no moral highground when it comes to telling other countries to not beat and murder their women routinely, I mean we don't even have a female president so what right do we have to lecture anyone on womans rights? We are exactly the same as they are. No, nevermind, we're worse (trail of tears anyone?). Besides, america leads the world in spousal abuse and rape. American women are the most abused and oppressed women of any country, and any time in history.

Theirs is an ancient and mystical culture and before we think about lecturing them we should try to embrace it and learn from them.

Did I miss anything?
