mixed really

Depends on where you're talking about. The people from Mexico and Central America are usually a mixture of Native American (Aztec, Mayan) and Spanish. In Puerto Rico, there are many Taino Native/black mixtures, and people of Italian descent. In Argentina, the country is almost entirely white, and many Asians are born and raised in Peru.

Latin America is a pretty diverse place.

This.

It's just a case that was blown out of proportion, and the racial stuff was extremely exaggerated. They needed a story like that for the media to get a boner for.

"Emo kids" are not just white. They're of any race.

They turned into scene kids.

But honestly, it was just a shitty fad that briefly existed.

Most people, at least in the US, have a name that is of Biblical origin. I don't know where you from, but even many atheists I know have Biblical names and they are fine with their names.

I had a friend named Jesus who is an atheist.

At least 20 people are dead, and many injured, after a trail derailed in northwestern Spain.

Sad tragedy for all Spanish people involved. Hopefully there were no NG BBS users on there either. May those injured recover.

Yeah I agree. Old people can be fun and interesting.

Young people are well... shitty sometimes.

Actually, this is a phenomenon caused by restricted socialization during your younger years.

If you aren't exposed to other cultures, have friends in other racial groups, and generally stay in your own little sheltered circle of direct family members you may find that members of other races all look the same to you.

It isn't your fault. It is a consequence of poor socialization.

It can be undone though, by making friends with people of other cultures, digesting foreign media, and immersing yourself in foreign culture.

I know you're joking and everything, but I'm actually half Asian myself. I spend my time around many Asian people, including my relatives. So yeah... point invalid.

It's completely and utterly inane.

It was just an opportunity for the news to pump out a big news story. They love to make situations seem even more serious and they suggest that they are racially charged. Basically, the media loves that shit.

Yeah, I guess the writing in CITH was a bit haphazard and corny. They definitely had a sloppy screenplay, but I guess the only things that made up for it were the jokes in it.

I'd rather stick with the old Cat in the Hat cartoons.

To be honest I'd rather trust an acquaintance to get ecstasy from, rather than some website that's probably a scam. However I don't really want to do Molly, so I'm not interested in the idea.

It sounds like you're ashamed to be from there. At least there is a lot of good food there, and the women are pretty hot. And you don't have to worry about getting shot there. Oh well...

Thanks for letting me explain that.

I would agree with you, but then again I do not live in an environment that is plagued with polluted air. I have been to places with polluted air and it was different to me, because I've rarely experienced being in a place with polluted, dirty air. It is really bad for you and I'm sure it can be fatal for some people. At least a couple million people die from air pollution each year worldwide, which is a serious problem now. I do agree that now we need to go green, and really try to protect our planet as best as we can. Many people are apathetic to air pollution because some people do not see it as a threat, but in reality, it really is. Seeing as many people die from it, we do need to take action.
