Thank you. It frustrates me to no end how much people want to be a victim in this country. The United States of America was not founded by a bunch of pansies, yet that's where we find ourselves just 240 years later. I could really get into this but I have a headache and it's not worth it because me saying it here won't do any good anyway.

 

I will say I believe many people on this board have never broadened their horizons and have no clue what it is they're actually complaining about because they've never lived life outside of their box or comfort zone. Heck, my husband was born and raised in the county we now live, has only lived in two homes in his 45 years of life, and never flew on a plane or went further west than Alabama until we married and went to Colorado (my home state) for our honeymoon. I lived in three states before the age of 5 and many more since then. He had a very limited worldview when we got married, now 4.5 years later he's learned quite a bit from me about how what he thinks is life is not how everyone lives, and I don't just mean geographically. Limited thinking due to sheltered lives is a very frustrating and dangerous thing. It makes you incapable of seeing other's POV. Life is not black and white. There is a lot of gray. There are a lot of people who do not understand that at all.
