It is.

Don't make the Tea Party fool you. Most Americans don't share the same sentiments as them. You only see racial tension in prisons, not in institutions.

Relatively, the US is very tolerant. You don't hear about fans using racial slurs at NFL and NBA games like you do in Premier League games.

No, you only hear it from the owners and players.

Its always funny when people claim America is so "racist". America is one of the most racially diverse countries in the world. It openly accepts people from all corners of the earth. America's immigration policy isn't very strict. America has tried to do so many things for the minorities (many of them I don't agree with) it'd be ridiculous to point to America as an example of a "racist" country.

Hey, if you want to beat your chests and holler from the rooftops how great you are, knock yourselves out.
Other countries know better.
Good on them. We don't care.

We have modern ruins!

There are lots of places in the world where you can view and study the ruins on ancient civilizations....but where else can one find the ruins of a modern post-industrial civilization?

Places like Detroit, Gary, E St Louis....and many others. I'm fascinated by it and would love to tour these places....if only they weren't so dangerous....
