And not only books and movies, but websites, religions, magazines, that cater to every paranoid delusion that the 'Tinfoil Hat' crow... |

| Its strikes a chord with me as well. It would be easy enough to ask your dad or mom or brother the name of "that family"(without saying why), and then for you to do what you gotta do on Facebook. Whatever that might be. Defaming them? Or calling them all on the carpet about it? But is that really th... |

| I get the impression that in Middle East cultures you stand out as insane if you're NOT paranoid. They do tend to go in for conspiracy theories over there. |

| Headline writers often make flubs. An American was found guilty of murder in the UK once. A newspaper advertised the news as "American Sentenced to Life in Scotland". THAT would be "cruel and unusual"! Okay. Maybe not 'cruel', but certainly "unusual". There would be little precedent for it in UK jur... |

| RT is saying that Iranians who watch Iranian state TV news believe that the USA/UK are purposely giving ISIS ez access to social media- so that ISIS can defame itsself by displaying its attrocities. Which would in effect make ISIS a propaganda arm of the US government! And therefore ISIS would not b... |

| Fair enough. Okay.. So I guess in a Venn diagram "Latin Americans" and "Hispanics" are both huge groups that would largely, but NOT entirely, overlap. Apparently. Latin Americans would be both Portugese speaking Brazilians, and Spanish speaking Mexicans, Central/South Americans, and many Caribbean I... |

"Hispanic (Spanish: hispano, hispánico, Portuguese: hispânico, Galician: hispánico, Basque: hispaniar, Catalan: hispà)[1][2] is an ethnonym that denotes a relationship to Spain". Thus, "H... |

If they dont use bags then where does the dirt go? Not trying to debate- just always wondered how that works. |

Maybe a "Bible Belt" is like a "bullet belt". Maybe it feeds tiny bibles into a machine gun. |
