[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I used to live in India back when Mumbai was called Bombay. I was 1 million percent horrified and distraught. Contextually--that was part of the age old India/Pakistan conflict and for years I have prayed/hoped/and idealized that Pakistan gets its house in order and becomes the country it had to the potential to be after partition, rather than run by creepy ISI agents in collaboration with the Taliban . I have also prayed that India and Pakistan find some accord in the Kashmir and other conflict zones, for the sake of the people living there.
 Paris was an attack on the West - my house. Ashamed for feeling this more? HELL NO.  
Thanks for asking.[/quote]

That's the right's response to why they want a change in drug policy now -

white kids dying on drugs is an attack on my people therefore i'm not ashamed for feeling this more.

It's ok, embrace your double standard - just like 90% of thread posters here have.

Just remember then not to chuckle the next time someone makes fun of the gallic work week or high speed rail investment or nationalized health care.

because you know - french values are our values. [/quote]

I actually cried with the Mumbai attack, which I have not done with yesterday's. I just feel simmering disgust and sadness On an emotional level I connected much deeper with Mumbai. I stayed in that hotel as a kid. Can picture the lobby clearly in my mind. Can picture the carefree and happy spirit of it pre-attack. Could picture the attack clearly in my mind, step by bloody step. I love and will always love India. And it was a sick act no matter where you are. But rationally, the attack yesterday was fundamentally an attack on the West and I understand that we are under attack. If you do not get that it's OK. Those of us who do will protect you, as we always have.[/quote]

Pray tell, how are you going to protect us from what happened yesterday?[/quote]
