Still - you're right. He has no clue about our laws, our history or anything about us he doesn't get spoon fed from the media.

He knows what he needs to know.  He or his parents saw more intense protests than anyone living in North America.  While the nominal police don't usually carry firearms in Europe, there is a lot more national guard out there, and those guys usually have helmets and rifles.  He or his parents saw the same types of "should he shoot or hold fire?" and "is the prosecutor protecting them, or us?" type questions that we are looking at right now - only worse.

But it's not the same. The reasons for those conflicts are MUCH different than what we are experiencing now. It's night and day. We are very different nations and our citizens have very different experiences and beliefs.

ABOUT US
The Jungle Forums is the Jaguars' biggest fan message board. Talking about the Jags since 2006, the Jungle was the team-endorsed home of all things Jaguars.

Since 2017, the Jungle is now independent of the team but still run by the same crew. We are here to support and discuss all things Jaguars and all things Duval!
