My dad died at 57, his dad died at 52. There's a good chance I'll be gone by 2050 or 2060. My daughter is one of two white girls in her class. She was the only white girl last year. I'm sure she'll be very used to being a minority.

That said, I'm very cool with a Latino majority. They have good food, good music, they work hard, they integrate well into Western culture, and they (for the most part) don't fanatically follow a fanatical religion. Bring it on.


James needs to watch this
2050...2060 tops

genes...can be a sassy bitch.  I would say the two silver linings on that statement
My understanding is that you get most of your genes from yo mama [note...not a real dr, I just play one on message boards] and two...now you know this information you can use this coupled with advances in medical science to buck this trend in your linage
(look at that, I said something nice to JF)

Well I see your ref to Muslims there and no where near to the degree...but there are certainly lots of people doing rash things in the name of god in Latin america
El Sal goes a little overboard with banning abortion
"  Women who have had miscarriages have been charged with aggravated homicide, a charge which can bring a sentence of up to 50 years in prison"

food and music I get, some races/cultures are just better at it...and I think that is still politically correct to say

But James...can you name a few that don't work hard?

Is that what everyone's eBOWLa tweets were about yeserday?

Heard something about someone in Silver Spring having ebola? What happened to the guy at the Howard hospital?

Also, can't you only contract Ebola from like... a blood tranfusion or something like that...

That might be humorous if it were not factually inaccurate. 

this is an interesting retort... please elaborate.  not sure how this is inaccurate.

you mean simply saying something is factually inaccurate is not enough for you?

I lived in South Korea for a year, where almost no guns exist (minus the US and Korean military, and MAYBE some of their police; most of the cops I saw had huge night sticks).

I NEVER feared for my safety wandering around Seoul, a HUGE metropolis with almost 10 Million people.

Even the criminals there don't have guns.  They use knives.  Watch some Korean action movies.

If a criminal here gets caught with a gun, then they will be jailed.

Australia:
0.86 (2011)

from wiki for Australia:
Quote
As of 2007 about 5.2% of Australian adults (765,000 people)[1] own and use firearms for purposes such as hunting, controlling feral animals, collecting, security work, and target shooting.

USA GUNS from google "how many guns are in the USA":
Quote
A minority of Americans own guns, but just how many is unclear. More than a third of Americans say they or someone in their household owns a gun. There are by various estimates anywhere from 270 million to 310 million guns in the United States ? close to one firearm for every man, woman and child.
