(Comparing the 2015 years) You are more likely to be murdered in the country you are living in now. News coverage doesn't make a country more dangerous and lack of news coverage doesn't make a country more safe. What I meant is that the fact the I see the coverage on tv, it's really effecting me psychologically, it's raising my fear and I can't control it. but anyway, tbh if now I get the ok to live in the US I'll jump on the first flight.. so don't get too much into my stupid thoughts and fears.. I was scared to live in CR and I'm here.. So sploosh your juice all over me you Riverboy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

People are so afraid to generalize that the truth can never be found, but that's okay. It's not my problem. Anyway, yes there are people as lazy as them found outside America but there are plenty more found in America. A lot of them don't even value education.

Maybe because the population is higher in America than most counties? Just a thought....more people = more lazy people. I can't think of any generalization that is true or kind. All gays are sluts?

Yeah...generalizing isn't good No, I'm talking in general of course. I've also taken certain things into consideration whether they're: comfortably living, rich from their parents, wages as opposed to other countries, etc what you dont understand is that I've never used the word, "all" Saying all Americans are lazy is far beyond generalizing. But you can't deny there are plenty more lazy people here as opposed to another country Also, everyone's a slut if they let themselves be I’m getting on your nerves Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has this been the Republican plan all this time because Lord knows all this orange man knows how to do is put his signature on a paper that he hasn't read or does't fully understand. Can we start leaving out Trumps name on policy threads and just call them what they are REPUBLICAN POLICIES. Yes. The Republicans are getting to push some key legislation and policy they've always wanted - using Trump as a scapegoat. Meanwhile, Russia is benefitting from Trump's presidency because they elected an unhinged, unintelligent man whos interests are his own, not America's. So Trump's ****ing up America's positions in the entire world, while Republicans are ****ing up America itself 私自身もこの世の中も誰もかれもが, どんなに華やかな人生でも, どんなに悲惨な人生でも, いつかは変貌し, 破壊され、消滅してしまう. すべてがもともとこの世に存在しない一瞬の幻想なのだから Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but CR is a small country, so the rate is higher but the number is low compare to the US.. 560 to 15k.... and the police now is everywhere to bring back the order, in 2016 the homicide crimes were higher than previous years.. And I'm like ran from rockets in Israel too, I survived this country!! It's just idk I guess the fact that it's all over the news when it happens in the US and when it's so common to be in places like schools, universities and other public places and in big numbers is just makes it more scary.. But in general, I always saw the US as a goal country to live there, I'm really living the US culture everyday and feel more connected to it.. Then don't move to a shitty city in California. The last time someone was murdered in my city was in the 80s, and technically it wasn't even a city then. Just move to any suburban area. Most murders here are gang related and happen close to the Mexican border Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

News coverage doesn't make a country more dangerous and lack of news coverage doesn't make a country more safe. If only Trump would understand this and take statistics into consideration, when he's talking about how France is out of control and how Germany is a mess when it comes to security. And how people believe him and are unsure if they are safe to visit some places in Europe...

Luiz 4,253 Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 makes sense to accept those with advanced degrees and money than the poor who are likely to come to america where they will remain poor and possibly be a drain on tax dollars and the economy. immigration is already down and continuing to go down tho so its like an acceleration of the inevitable shift in immigration out of the US with the way people on this website **** on america i'm surprised anyone wants to still come here I disapprove of what you say, but will defend to the death your right to say it.
