I FUCKING HATE THIS COUNTRY!!!

When I was a child I honestly believed that America was the greatest nation on earth. Damn I wish I could be that naive again.

The President of a sovereign nation is visiting us and what do we do but treat him like a terrorist because we don't agree what what he has to say. I'm relatively sure that the students at NYU are grown up enough to listen to him and differentiate between radical hate speech and worthwhile information for themselves.

And as far as not allowing him near Ground Zero, thats strikes me as nothing but plain intolerance. What do they think he's going to do? Strap a bomb to himself and blow up what is basically a vacant lot? Nothing could be more unlikely.

I hate the fact that the majority of Americans don't even realize that Iranians are Persian and not Arab. Our government does nothing but feed us propaganda and our citizens don't make the slightest attempt to Educate themselves.

Time to prepare for the flame-war to come.

I totally agree with you dude. God, I was so naive. I got into a HUGE argument with someone in class today about America. Sometimes its ridiculous how ignorant some people can be. I understand why we would be hesitant, but at the same time that is incredibly racist and pretty much asshole-ish.
