1 AnswerRock and Pop1 decade agoWhy cant other minorities take a cue from asians?
You look at the majority of asians, they are hard working people that, even though they were treated poorly by white people, you would never know it because they never complain about it. They are large contributors to society especially in the technological fields), take school very seriously and are responsible people. On the other hand, you look at the major of blacks or mexicans, they generally are very outspoken about how they were mistreated. They generally dwell in the past, focus on issues that happened decades ago, often times, use these past negative experiences as a scapegoat or a crutch, and then expect society to compensate for there misfortunes that they themselves never even truly experienced. Many don't even attempt to put forth effort in a legitimate career, and leech off society, or resort to criminal lifestyles. Few value a good education and are not a factor in the cutting edge jobs of the 21st century. My question is, why don't blacks and mexicans look at asian americans, and take a cue from them. Maybe then, people would take them more seriously.
That being said, there are several notable exceptions, this is all large generalization. However it is a generalization rooted in truths.

2 AnswersPolls & Surveys1 decade agoRage Against the Machine guitar style.?
Ok im restarting on my guitar after about two years of not playing at all, so im pretty much a novice. i like play RATM style, but i have a few questions. When it says to "killswitch" notes what goes it mean (see example 1). I know how to killswitch on stuff like the solo on Bull on Parade, but i dont see the connection with that and with doing it in the sense of example #1. Question 2: is vibrato the same thing as a whammy bar and is tremolo bar the same thing as those two??
Example 1:
Riff #1 (Intro and verses) --Using killswitch and whammy--
|----------------------------------------------|
|--12------------12-----------12-----------12--|
|----------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------|
|----------------------------------------------|
Example two:
Solo part 1 --killswitch--

2 AnswersRock and Pop1 decade agoXbox Live wireless question?
I am interest in subscribing to Xbox Live Wireless, and I was going to have a wireless connection, but I really don’t want to pay $100 for the wireless adaptor. I bought a wireless USB transmitter that you plug into a computer for an Internet connection a long time ago; will that work instead of going out and buying one that cost $100? I have wireless Internet, but we choose to hook the computer up to the Ethernet cable, so if wee ever get another computer we can use the wireless one for that, we haven’t got a new computer, and I don’t see why it would work on the Xbox 360. Maybe I'm wrong, but its worth a try.
4 AnswersXbox1 decade agoFascism and People fear because of ignorance?
Fascism is given such a bad rap because of people like Hitler (who wasnt even a fascist), i wondering why, is it ignorance or just "why my teacher said it was bad so it must be bad" .Fascism has great ideals and if handled correctly then it would be a good government ie: Elightened Fascism (my own Creation). No fascism bashing, just answer the question. If you have a question about my Elightened Fascism, post it and i will answer, i dont what this to be a forum though.
