Would you be willing to expound on that a bit?

Yeah Right.

Europe has hate groups that are politcal parties. They have police departments which seem unable to stop attacks against immigrant workers or Jewish communities. Then we come to a few facts about Europians. If you are German and move to France you will always be German. The fact of not being allowed belong is the major reason I see Europe as a going brothel of lust greed and brutality that is the stuff that writers talk about.

So yes Europe is great. As an example of what we left behind by starting that fight in Concord and Lexington.

Over the last decade there has been a increase of attacks against Jew and their places of worship. These attacks done by groups of people without any attempt to quash them by the local police. Which have cameras up to watch the populas for crimes ranging from traffic laws to watching as a sort of remote police officer.

Some of these groups are recognized as being radical elements of political parties and the parties are not forced to expel these people nor even to forced to speak out against their actions.

Last time a person set off bombs outside of abortion clinics. The republicans were among the first to take steps to prevent this from happening a second time.

I was just wondering what prompted your tirade.

The comment about Europe doing things better. Now Europe does have a number of achievements to be proud of. But it is far from being a paragon of virtue.

Right...we might need to work on our ability to recognize sarcasm. My comment was more or less prompted by what I perceive to be the (unwarranted) idolization of all things European by some segments of American society.

I thought maybe that was it. Sarcasm is notorious for intermittent signal strength. 'Specially on political threads.
