Nice, France one of the most beautiful cities I've ever seen.

This was the comment I made, with sadness in my heart, as I watched the terrible images on the screen during my lunch break.

A coworker look at me with his face all scrunched up and asked;

"Isn't that in France?"

"Yes, on the Riviera."

"My Aunt said France is a filthy shithole."

"Are there any crappy areas in America, Ray?"

"Yeah."

"Does that mean America is a shitty country, full of nothing but filthy shithole cities, Ray?"

"What the fuck is that supposed to mean?"

"I don't know, Ray. Ponder it for a while and let me know what you come up with."

Another coworker posted videos of protesters getting run over in THIS country and made the comment that "This is what we need more of."..........

Then bitched when they deleted the post and sent him a warning.

I really am SO tired of these people. Especially the ones who can think of no other response to tragedy but to talk trash about the country it happened in or the people it happened to, make sick jokes and/or get all defensive about their precious toys............

Is this what we are now? A nation of hateful, sick minded assholes?

I love my country but I hate what I'm watching it become...........and the people that are doing it.

My deepest condolences go to the families and friends of the victims, and to my appreciated neighbour France in general. I visited this beautiful country about 50 times in my life. Almost all the people I met were so nice to me.

BS you are presenting creatures who will never get that we are all ONE!

"Tat tvam asi" (Thou art that) is the term expressing this best.

Hate has no boundaries or limits in it's reach and effects. Hate is a very powerful motivator and just may carry the day.

Having the pleasure to work with peoples of many countries over the years. I soon learned the loudest uninformed opinionated narrow minded, on average less educated in any room were always from the U.S.of A. On average the laziest too! Get a map out and if blank of country labels, they could not find France! But yet knew all the correct answers to the worlds problems.
