I did not view the video (I'm avoiding viruses--I'm sharing this computer and have to be extra careful, so I didn't open it). So I can't comment on the video (other than saying that IF the people on it were spewing hate and lies, then I disagree with them--but I wouldn't know). However, I do want to comment on what you said:
"And as for shootings in schools! LOL, most of those occur in highly Christian areas of the United States, because these people truly beleive in the 2nd Amendment and the right to bear arms and teach their children to use guns without teaching them that its wrong to shoot others."
"Don't get me wrong, I hate Americans as much as the next person, they're nothing but a bunch of hypocrits who pick on poorer countries when they can't even stop poverty in their own."
Well, dohagirl, you've made it crystal clear that you hate Christians and Americans. You have the right to hate anyone you want. As for me, I will continue to judge people on a individual basis and try my best to avoid hateful people who judge others and lump them all into one group before they even get to know them.
I've known lots of people who believe in the 2nd Amendment (myself included, although I've never owned a gun), but I've certainly never known anyone who thought it was OK for their kids to shoot others! I challenge you to give me an example of a Christian parent who taught their child to use a gun without teaching them it's wrong to shoot others. Hateful, outlandish statements are a hallmark of fundamentalists. How ironic!
I don't want to start a discussion on gun control, but most people don't seem to realize that when citizens are disarmed, then they are left defenseless should they be attacked by their government leaders (Hitler disarmed the Germans for a reason! One example among many. Most tyrants disarm their citizens!): http://www.xmission.com/~ranthon/hitler-and-guns.htm
I don't expect everyone to agree on politics, religion, culture, gun control, abortion, modesty, morality, global warming or anything else. The world will always have differing viewpoints. If only we could find a way to disagree peacefully and respectfully, without hating those who disagree with us.
I can only dream....
