    How pitifully insignificant and uninteresting this headline is. Is it [strongly] or [weakly] correlated ? You can say, "On Earth, Where You're Born..." I mean, c'mon. This is compa…

    " You sound as close-minded as some of the people you're railing against." Again. Re-read the first two paragraphs. How do you GET this conclusion? It makes absolutely no sense. I'…

    It is beyond me that you read my first paragraph and probably started thinking "close-minded." It's beyond me that you fail to see the sense of betrayal and defeatism in a person w…

    I'd love to be trapped in a padded room with you for 10 hours so that I could crush your mind with my mind.

    I wish all the best for the U.S., but this country has only presented fear and obstacles to my family, and demands loyalty, recognition. I am a Citizen of the World, and it will be…
