Indians just want to have their neighborhood and school and social circle be India in America and I don't get it.
I agree. Their country is way messed up, now they want New India here.
Funny, when my parents showed up from India in 1976, they felt the same way. Except they had no place to go where they could be the majority. Your neighbors probably refused to associate with you because they (correctly) sensed that you are a racist.

I was enjoying the hole she dug way too much. And of course I was stuck there waiting. I had come for a peaceful day, but not while she was there.
I was so close to telling her how much another place was so much better, that she was overpaying, that if she knew anything about her subject matter as she pretended, she would know......as I thought everyone did....
I could not believe how impressed she was with herself and how she expected others to be uninformed and as uneducated as her. She kept repeating herself as if that would make it more true, yet it did not. ITA - STFU!
We. Don't. Care. More than you would ever know!
You lose out by judging others and thinking you are better informed. You are not. Really.

Which poor people benefited from the freedom we won in Vietnam? Korea? Iraq Wars I and II? How did our "liberating" help anyone there, or or returning soldiers here? Which wealthy people and corporations (excuse me, they're people now, too. I always forget) benefitted from the above? Tell me about the profits of the bomb and helicopter and chemical companies. How about Halliburton? Xe, or whatever they're calling themselves now? I'm actually one of the people who is grateful to the people who serve, but let's not pretend like any of our recent forays have done much in the way of protecting our "freedoms," okay, Cheney?
And communism? If we really had a problem with it, one would think we wouldn't let China own all our debt.
Amen, Sister!

Jesus Christ. You can't feed the ones you have. You're setting yourself and your children up for failure. Go to Planned Parenthood on your day off. Get the pill. Take it.
