Nothing like lightening up the mood during discussions about ethnic cleansing. It's always a hoot. Rolling Eyes

Matko, sorry to hear that about you family.

If in our countries we did this to Koreans- All shit would hit the fan.

I've got no tolerance for Koreans in my country after living here for over two years. They want to come to my country and have all the benefits and privelages that we have. But as soon as you are on their doorstep it is a different story.

-and then people assume youre a loser bum who can't get a job back home, because you're an English teacher in Korea. Some people ain't got much of a home to go back to.

I haven't had the time to read or digest your numerous posts. However, my second post was not soley for your consumption. In fact, if I remember correctly only one or two sentences was directed your way so I can't imagine how three or four posts in response is appropriate but my feeling on arguing in a public post is this: why would I waste my time arguing directly with one indivual whose mind won't change. You are not going to change your mind about posting uncivil garbage. Why should I bother? You really don't need to respond. Find a hobby.

Don't worry, its normal. I've not seen a single poster change their original point of view on here, ever. Debate never moves a person, only personal experience.

it would take all of about 5 minutes...you may be somewhat of a busy bee but i would chance my arm and say that the previous post may have taken you around that long to write.

yes it was only one or two sentences directed my way...but you were way off the mark...you post stuff like that and expect no reply from me?

good luck in korea. sorry i didnt change my mind for you...i mean you are quite the all knowing all powerful omnipotent one there aren't ya!
