    The argument of a fool, who can't back statements made as fact.

    Since your statement can not be backed by any source. I encourage you to retract the false hood and adjust to it is your opinion.

    Quite the contrary. I am more amused you can't back your statement. Educate yourself before repeating "facts" you harm your credibility, and the credibility of your cause. once again qualify your statement. you are no more believable than another well known poster on this site if you can't.

    It would be a conversation if it wasn't one sided. Conversation takes give and take, you failure to qualify your statement creates a one sided conversation.
    There is no bait, I simply want to know which rights are given in an unequal way. The lack of any proof makes your statement a baiting for debate. I am here to debate this , but debating " remove your blinders" statements is a moot task.

    Constant disrespect for a country that has done more for human rights in the shortest period of time than any other country in the world sure does get old and tiresome. Just a bunch of yip yap and never any solutions.

    I think part of the issue here is, people like yourself and others on this board and in this country have this notion that the US is the greatest country that ever was and is and ever will be and showing any flaw in that thinking threatens the whole house of cards. We humans tend to picture everything in black and white but reality doesn't bear that out. Its not always all one way or the other. There's a spectrum. A person can make great movies and be a sex offender. They can be icons of the civil rights movement and cheat on their wife. Some of the soldiers who've fought for America have killed innocent children. America is a nation that founded a great democracy and also fought a whole war over owning people as property.

    Its much more sensible to address the merits of each issue individually instead of dismissing it out of hand simply because its "attacking America".
