LOL! Camo is for sissies! Nope, it's woolens and plaid jackets for me when I hunt.

Maybe I misunderstand what you are saying. I'm saying that diversity is good--the kind I saw in my son's neighborhood where we just went for a visit. The family across the street is selling their house for $867,000; it's a mixed Hispanic/Anglo family. Next door is an Asian family in a similar house. Then there's a typical white family. After that a fully Hispanic family. They are all prosperous--and young. They followed the rules and worked their butts off. No monkey business. No roach haircuts. No pot smoke on the wind. They dress like everyone else and drive a nice car like everyone else. All of them drive nicer cars than I do and live in houses that cost three times as much as mine, and they deserve it as far as I'm concerned.

I don't see them with their hands out, dressing like a clown with their cracks showing in back, or acting in a strange manner. That is self-destructive, in my opinion. It doesn't lead to prosperity, only to grief and poverty. It's diversity, but unproductive and worse, destructive diversity.

OK, where are you coming from?
