Sooooo, I’m not sure if you know this, but lots of Persians are white.

Here’s a thought, Dlister...he’s on in order to draw attention to the environment in our own backyard for all the numbnuts who watch dumbass shows like Bear whatever but have trouble opening a newspaper.

To be fair, these are all the faults of the sucky riders, not the gadget.

Absolutely. Every single candidate should get to answer every question.

But the OP does get to say that he’s not Middle Eastern and that’s the point. And it’s an important one. One can identify as a certain race—or their parents can try in your case—but that doesn’t make it true or real either. Just ask Rachel D.

So, I guess there were no available Middle Eastern actors left to play a part so they hired a Latino?

Not that this is an excuse but I think it might be culturally endemic. When my friend returned from Peace Corps in Jordan in the late 90s—she also spent a couple years in and out of Egypt—she said it was a really common sight to see men walking the streets holding the hands and being affectionate with boys.

I know! Who wants to hear about varied experiences to deepen one’s knowledge, amirite?

Did your attacker get convicted?

This made me tear up. I’m really, really sorry you had to go through ALL of that—the initial violation and trauma then doubled by the bureaucratic fuckery all because you’re a woman.

“Life is Good” until they’re born and then they can go fuck themselves, right Ohio?

God, I really hope no Turkish are shouting out of solidarity with Daesh. Because they’re at the top of Daesh’s hit list. They do not play for the same team.

Oh, dear, the articles about Ankara, Iraq and Syria have been quite extensive, you’ve just not been reading them. In fact, Syria and Iraq have been on the front page of every newspaper for years not with extensive coverage of the carnage.

“...serve as a reminder that the west doesn’t consider them real people worthy of even a moment of remembrance. Also, way to gloss over what is essentially racism/classism/hemispherism.”

I guess. But as I work from myself I get to choose my clients and I make it a point not to work with people who suck. But I’m sure you’re right.

I’ve never read more poorly written, unprofessional emails from anyone over the age of 30 in my life. Her tone, her choice of words...just mortifying.
