That's the problem, you excuse wrongdoing by your employer, or those corporations whose stock you hold, for another buck. As far as I can tell from your posts, any wrongdoing.

Is there any room left for accountability in your worldview?

What is the matter with you? It's like this resentment of yours, or hatred, I don't know what, it possesses you.
They are criminals, greedy, and show hate and disrespect to my country and hard earned money, they deserve harsh persecution to set an example for they're ilk.


True and righteous immigrants, whether poor or not, show respect to my America and her laws, her people and those who died for our freedom.
They wait they're turn as righteous and civilized people do.

Yes I did, but I don't know if those people stretch how bad it is. I've seen some, like them, really blow things out of proportion.

"Your" America is my America too, and I think that way of looking at the situation completely distorts the reality of what is occurring.

I wonder whether it is a Freudian slip that you wrote "persecution" rather than "prosecution."

Anyone who's read my posts knows I never do this, but I must make an exception. Have you ever read the gospels? If so, if you'd read them again, or for the first time, I believe at least your perspective on this issue would change. Probably not your opinion of what should be done, but at least you might develop a little empathy.

I don't know, though. You think of innocent children on the other side of the world whom you've never even seen as "cockroaches." Something went terribly wrong with the wiring in your brain. Still, miracles do happen.

Of course. And I quit one where the employer was doing wrong. Right livelihood is important.

Dang, Free...that's pretty much what I say about you. LOL
I think that deep down, you're probably a pretty good guy. You just have some bad wiring, that confuses you and makes you wrong most of the time.....but I haven't given up hope of converting you. LOL

I know there are some right wing thoughts in there, somewhere!
