Yes, and they're anxiously waiting for you to join them so you can share their
living space and help them improve their grammar. You're not a racist, I hope.

I don't know. Why do you identify the guys behind bars as black and Hispanic?

We have white people in jail as well.. even a few of them Irish, believe it or not.

Correct me if i'm wrong but proportional to the population, Black and Hispanic guys are greatly over represented in your prison system. Most likely a link with poverty.

What do you mean by "over represented"? They are in jail because they were
convicted of committing crimes. They represent crime.. not racial or ethnic groups.

If there's a link, it's probably drugs.

Population percentage. Why do people generally get involved in crime or drugs?

Nowt better on. No prospects.

Edit: Escapism, boredom, too much money and time on hands, by association, depression, through force, stupidity, many many reasons.

This conversation is going nowhere.

Aside from that, even though you hate the U.S., the U.S. does not hate you.

Just be careful about that third strike.

I don't hate the U.S. why would i visit a place more than once that i hate?

America has just as many problems than Europe does... it's just fun to dig at Americans, about anything. You guys react too easily.

Might not tell with my posts sometimes but i actually like the place. No where else in the world can i find people as obnoxious and arrogant than i am 😉
