 i've lived in eastern europe a lot of the last 12 years... and i very nearly was in ukraine, or kazakhstan or siberia

i can assure you that it is not hell in most of the world... i've heard stories from friends about china, cambodia and vietnam too... really... the media distorts everything to make it seem like it's murdertown everywhere

actually, from the stats, murdertown central is actually mexico but i'm pretty sure that being a muslim in israel is rough, and being born into that situation is confusing and horrifying

pretty sure there's plenty of jew kids who grow up wondering what the fuck is going on too
