Any statistics on that? America wants to be best and first at everything. Well we're pretty good at being obese. Maybe the best. We're best at gun stuff. We are tops on that list. I don't know where we rate as thieves. But I betcha we aren't the worst. Sexual perversion is oozing out of the pores of all areas in American society of late. Entertainment field, sports, politics, business, education, the military, the church. Where isn't it plentiful? Are we best at that too? More sexual perverts in the US than anywhere in the world? less

If it relates to wrongdoing against other people just trash them and try to make THEM the perps and you the poor innocent crucified vic and double down on attacking them and calling them fake/phony. It is working beautifully in the US on many levels, especially politics. You get elected no matter how sleazy you are or what creepy things you did...some criminal. Folks don't give a rat's a** about character these days. Just give 'em that good old fashioned sweet talking lies and you own them. So the basketball players followed suit. There are shoplifters in the US all the time. Ask any store owner. I don't know if people from other countries are thieves too. I'll ask. Maybe they're worse. Who knows? Who cares? Right? less

Either way they should be confronted with it, held to it and not get a "pass" on it. Why do many folks give sweet talkers a pass on everything they do, don't do, say or don't say?

Each side presents its ordinary typical standard nondescript never-changing predictable repetitive unoriginal views. They never change. They are always boringly the same. Pro/con repeatedly on this issue achieves nothing, is worth nothing, will change nothing. Unless a miracle occurs. Don't hold your breath. Save it for future discussions that are valuable/useful/promising. If such exist in this political climate which is an unknown. :( less

In the meantime I have to be extra special careful with it because sometimes it catches on things and tears a little more. Ouch! Perhaps I should keep my nails a little shorter so this doesn't happen so often. I'm often lifting heavy things at work and it's probably not such a good idea to keep my fabulous nails so long.

Giving religion a thumb in the eye and ignoring all its tenets to support a political force never seen before? You cannot serve two masters. Some folks chose to be devoted to a pol. No worries. Their choice. Different strokes. Who cares? What's the difference? Whose business is it? Let the good times roll! :(
