Gee any chance of me interviewing your long list of international friends?
As far as posts with no substance, take a look at how you have reduced this discussion into an insult exchange. I have noticed this to be common among a few in here who claim to know what they are talking about.

Ikechukwu Valentino Ujari, Slobodan Radonovic, Yirang Wang. But I must be good at googling such ethnic names so quickly. Read Sadists post, she said stuff that I couldn't put my finger on but meant.

Ok can I interview them please? Since you like to say I'm full of bullshit then I will say the same of you until I get to have a discussion with your many international friends.

Would you like my facebook for U of I? They are my facebook friends! And in exchange, can you get me the # of a peaceful distraught Triad who is bummed about his unthorough existence in Hong Kong?

I'm not arguing Hong Kong. I'm just pretty offended you called America a "rampant" crime ridden country. You'd be offended if I called Hong Kong successful only because of the British. But I guess I can argue that as long as you can argue "rampant" violence in the states.

Actually I would not be offended if you said HK was successful because of the british. Like it or not I believe hong kong would not be what it is today without the british.

I say american crime is rampant because it is compared to where I'm from. I'm not saying that to be insulting or to bash, I'm saying that because crime in any one of your cities is high in comparison. I believe it is a legitimate argument. And no I do not claim you are all thugs or criminals. And I do not claim america is the most violent nation in the world.
