An open letter to all the friggin’ idiots that actually believe that the USA is a racist country:
Get off your collective asses…quit demonstrating your ignorance. Save a couple welfare checks and go out into the wide world. Go visit those countries that you believe are somehow more enlightened than the USA, more accepting of other cultures, other religions, other colors. Go visit them and come back and tell us all how much better it would be if we were to emulate them. ‘Way back in the Once upon a time category, there was a rock back called Blood, Sweat, ’n Tears…their lead singer was a Canadian citizen that went by the name of David Clayton Thomas, aka David Henry Thomsett
Mr David Clayton Thomas was an extremely vocal critic of the USA…he was making a great deal of money here but he didn’t care for our ‘political policies’ or our social policies….then this very successful rock band toured behind the Iron Curtain (The Iron Curtain was the physical boundary dividing Europe into two separate areas from the end of World War II in 1945 until the end of the Cold War in 1991. The term symbolized efforts by the Soviet Union to block itself and its satellite states from open contact with the west and non-Soviet-controlled areas.) When they returned from their tour, David Clayton Thomas called a press conference and did a very odd thing: He apologized to the USA for his previous statements. He’d seen first-hand what it was really like behind the Iron Curtain, what life in the Workers Paradise was really like and he apologized. He’s the only one who ever did apologize and I give him great credit for that. If all you young disidents, so loud, so profane in your judgement of this country would just go look for yourselves what it’s like in the rest of the world, I wonder how many of you would have to guts to come back and apologize…I’m betting that there are damn few of you that could follow in the footsteps of David Clayton Thomas...
