OPEN YOUR EYES! Look around you - I mean in other countries as well as the US -you have it far far better than many others.
You obviously hate the native americans!
How does "I object to indian casinos and what they do" translate to "I hate native Americans" exactly ?

Think what you want, but please stop trotting out the race card everytime someone objects to what something from another culture does. All that shows is that you have no proper arguement.

Oh yeh...like They are going to tell the truth about everything. Do yourself a favor and start thinking for yourself rather then swallowing whole the pablum TPTB want to feed you to keep you pacified.

You also might want to stop assuming that nobody else knows anything when they don't believe as you do. I think I know far more about the mafia then you do. Have you ever read a single book on the topic ?

Well I've read several. And the non-indian casinos are corporate now. When the mafia ruled vegas it was a whole other vegas then the one we see today.

With regards to your continued insistance that illegal (note: I said illegal, not minorities -- those were your words not mine) immigrants aren't taking jobs away from legal citizens, go ahead and keep your head in the sand, your eyes downcast and your head down like a good majority of the population. Give your mind away completely for all I care. Where I DO care is when it begins to affect my life and the lives of other legal citizens around me.

I'm done with this conversation. Continue to fling the race card/racist accusations around me as much as you want as your comments will not ever herd me into the pen with the other sheep. I will continue to think for myself thankyouverymuch.

Without any concern to the laws they break to get this "new lifestyle" or what they do or don't to get it.....
People like you don't deserve to be called or even considered "American"...not that it matters to you.

again our founding fathers were essentially immigrants--they got to stay cause they outnumbered the natives and physically ripped their land from them------that IS NOT happening here--so why the paranoia
Again,,,To fill your lack of education on the issue, you have to use History(which is irrelevant) to justify all their illegal actions.
It just goes to show that learning both sides of an issue is your weakest point.

i have NEVER needed to read books to know of the mafia past or current---on topic--i cannot call you racist cause i do not know you--but you appear to have a great anger towards illegals for things that are not their doing---hope that changes

Honestly Annie, it probably will change once I get a job. I tend to stew over things for a lonnnnnng time. Not saying that's a good thing, just something I tend to do.

Until I get a job, I probably WILL continue to stew over not getting the job I was slated for at the Wild Pear. You're right in that it wasn't the other persons fault..but I for sure blame the bosses for not hiring the one who had the better skills and education for the position.

Please consider that the post you quoted was a ways back too, please. I'm not saying I don't still feel very much the same way as I did when I wrote it, but I feel it a lot less vehemently today then I did at the time.

Peace ?

Hmmm- not sure how my post that you quoted implies that I have a chip on my shoulder, or that I may be racist.
As that was quite a personal, insulting remark, you should explain yourself.

IMO, we should not grant US Citizenship until we figure out our financial mess.
