Should the U.S. continue to remain one ungovernable country.?
Lately, I have been wondering if it would be better to let the South Secede from the United States or perhaps the North would like to drop the Southern States. Is the political divide becoming too much and making the country ungovernable. This would be very difficult but do you thing it would be worth discussing.
3 AnswersGovernment7 years agoI have a question about the U.S. mindset.?
As I read questions and answers I cannot help but get the feeling that hated of Americans for one another is becoming an epidemic. This does not square with my knowledge of Americans that I have met or relatives that I have in the U.S. I am also aware that there seems to be a proliferation of hate groups in the U.S. Midwest and South. Is this merely rhetoric going on between political factions or is this the end of the American Empire or is the problem economic.

3 AnswersLaw & Ethics8 years agoAbout the situation in the Florida same sex case recently in the news?
Should the names of the accusing parents of the 14 year old girl be given to the public since so much information is being passed around by the Police. Perhaps the parents should be interviewed by the press to see what can be found out about them. Possibly when they first had sex with anybody and of course with graphic details for our information only you understand. What do you think.
2 AnswersCurrent Events8 years agoRobin Hood, Jesse James, and other outlaws were folk heroes to the outsiders in society.?
society and became bigger than life. When an individual feel wronged by society, left out or treated unjustly and strikes out with violence to get vengeance he she maybe reviled as a villain or loved as a folk hero. In the case of the folk hero a community will overlook crimes committed because a sense of justice is felt by outside observers. How many movies and books are produced with this type of theme.
My question is does this explain the feelings the murders of Police Officers and their Families by Christopher J. Dorner in California evoked in some people.
