1. Maybe I'm missing the point here,
but this strikes me as being in very bad taste.

3. I think it's a form of protest and bringing people's minds to focus on the tragedy....
.. Americans are quick to not pay any attention to the suffering of other countries. We are too geographically isolated to care much.

5. protest wouldn't be the word I would use
I prefer the word 'resistance'

Happy Thanksgiving!

7. we all need to expand our vocabulary
My friend Venk used to encourage us to talk like Apu on the Simpsons. I was the only one who embraced that. I would deliberately talk like Apu, but I would say nice things, and just plain old everyday things that aren't insulting like that character. I learned how to expand my abilities to speak.

He also told me about how Sanskrit is a pretty cool language, and we would listen to the Gyuto Monks' chanting and we would chant like them together, much like Termudgeon and his "Brother" did in the movie Mongol: The Rise of Genghis Khan.
