A. I never stereotyped Americans. When and where did I say that? I do have my political leanings, but who doesn't? But I don't see where I said, Americans are this or that.
B. Actually if you notice my first post, I said "my friend told me.....", and I didn't say this is my clear, cold-cut opinion. War sucks, I know about the ugly side of war, and that alot of tragic things happen during war...but I don't see how what I said did not make sense. Oh my bad for using "left, right and center"..that's just my daily language..not what I would actually write..in say...an English class..and people say worse things here..so what? I just meant to emphasize that my friend told that rapes and kidnappings have INCREASED since the war started.
C. I don't think that I am the only emotional person here RCooper. When my faith is constantly under attack on GC, I will stand up for it. When people make false comments about Islam, I will tell 'em if they are wrong. are you calling this clouded?
So no, I don't feel embarassed. Should I be? cuz you and told me to? *lol*
