Herman Cain may have put band-aids on the wounds, but his words will be a plague of dark scars forever!

I know he apologized, but I'm not going to let my guard down. Herman Cain calls himself an American, are you kidding me? This man totally disrespected the American Muslim community and that bothers me. I think the only reason why he is apologizing is because he need everyones vote and support.Deep down he knows that the Muslim community is apart of America. All apologies are not true. Some apologies are fake. Hermain Cain sounds like an average bigot. Cain may have apologized for his comments about Muslims to the Muslim community, but they'll NEVER be forgotten. Cain may have put a bandaid on the part that is scarred and wounded in order to keep it from being infected, but that dark mark where the scar and wound healed will be there forever as a rememberance of how it hurt the first time. That dark scar and wound that healed will never be forgotten. Hermain Cain knew good and well what he was planning to say and he knew what his intentions were before he became public with all this. He knew what he wanted to say before he decided to become a Republican Candidate for President of the United States. He is a grown man, not a child! Children do things out of line when they haven't been taught about something specific not just yet but will be taught the difference between right and wrong when parents discipline them. But again this is a grown man we're talking about. Hermain Cain knew better, so there is no excuse whatsoever. Now, Hermain Cain claims to be a "United States Constitution man". In my opinion, he can't be a United States Constitutional man and say he support the residents of Mumfeesboro, Tennessee when they say they don't want a mosque built in their town. I support the Muslim Americans and according to the United States Constitution, people in the United States have freedom of religion, which means Muslims are Americans also and have every right to build mosques anywhere and any place they want to. The United States of America is a free country! Also, Hermain Cain said he would not hire a Muslim in his cabinet. Hermain Cain is an ignorant man because everyone knows that this is called discrimination. You can't live in the United States of America and not know the fact that not hiring a person because of their religion or skin color is against the law and the United States Constitution. But what really makes me sick on the stomach is that these people in Mumfeesboro, Tennesse that are filled with hatred in their hearts have the nerve to call Muslims Americans terriorist (and I do not like saying that word), but it was the Muslim American who suffered a great deal of tragedy when their mosque was destroyed by the same hateful people who call Muslim Americans hurtful names. Those hateful residents in Mumfeesboro, Tennessee are hyprocrites and I hope those hateful residents of that town don't consider themselves as Christians, because Christians are suppose to be loving, kind, tolerant, and patient. Christians are also suppose to respect other people's culture. Muslim Americans are human beings too and have rights in the United States as well. I love you my Muslim brothers and sisters!

The White Majority Of The United States Has Forgotten They Too Used To Be Immigrants!

Hello Everyone,

As an Mississippian-Alabamian I'm ashamed and disgusted by a lady (also from Alabama) who complained about the advertising billboard sign because it was in the Spanish language. People who share the same views as this lady are ignorant to the fact that their city is progressing and changing. People who share the same views as this lady are ignorant to the fact that this city is increasing in cultural diversity. The rant that this lady displayed is an embarrassment to the state of Alabama. Numerous cities around the United States of America have foreign language signs everyday and everywhere. People who share the same views as this lady doesn't understand that is a public billboard and United States is a free country and people as well as organizations have the right to display foreign language advertisements to expand their clientele. This lady has literally insulted the Latino/Hispanic Community on television. I also notice some of the comments below as I read this article. I'm so sick and tired of some of the white majority brag about their American status, as if they have one rich culture and they all came from America. Truthfully, the United States is combined with a variety of cultures from several different countries around the globe. Honestly, if it weren't for the white immigrants of the past who came to America from countries such as Ireland, Poland, Greenland, Iceland, Germany, Norway, Austria, France, and England, the white majority of the United States of America wouldn't have an "American" status to brag about. And please, let us not forget some of these white immigrants in the past didn't know any kind of English whatsoever. Some, not all, of the white majority in America have forgotten the fact a long time ago, they too used to be immigrants from different countries in search of a better way of life. The immigrants of the past have done what the immigrants of the present are doing today: trying to pursue a better way of life. I will say this once again: All of us are immigrants of the United States, the only true citizens in America are the Native Americans. Some, not all, of the white majority have grown to be so wrapped up in their privilege lifestyle that they forgotten what it was like. Some, not all, of the white majority have forgotten what it was like not being able to communicate with other people of different languages. Some, not all, of the white majority have forgotten what it was like to leave a country because they were unhappy with the limited opportunities and lack of freedom and money. They forgotten what it was like to need help in a time of need when they had nothing. That is why it sickens me that states such as Arizona, Florida, Alabama and more states to come have insulted their ancestors who in the past were in the same exact shoes as immigrants of today by coming up with their own version of what they think immigration should be by passing out these laws that contains racial profiling and injustice. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a racist. I love all people of different races and cultures. I'm just saying that some, not all of the white majority have forgotten where they truly came from. The white majority of the United States who are descendants of immigrants (some foreign language immigrants) from hundreds of years ago used to be in the same place as the immigrants who exist in the United States today.

Hypocrisy of American Society: LGBT Matrimony

I've been doing a lot of thinking about the subject of gay marriage. I recently heard the state of New York just passed a law accepting gay marriage. Some American citizens say that marriage is a sacred union between a man and a woman that should last a life time and should never be broken. But in reality, a lot of heterosexual people who say these things often take the sacred union bond for granted. The rate of divorce within heterosexuals is an alltime high. Also, some (not all) heterosexuals go into marriage for convience instead of love(and all people should marry for the reason of true love). Some (not all) heterosexuals in America have been married up to four times within their lives. The same people (not all people)that say marriage is a sacred bond between a man and a woman are the same ones that don't take marriage seriously. Some(not all)heterosexuals do not take their marriage vows seriously and lie in front of the ministers and preachers. How can some people say that marriage is a "sacred bond between a man and a woman" when some people are cheating on their spouses behind their backs? Is marriage really as "sacred" as those same people say it is? Those same people say that marriage is "sacred" in front of other people because it's convient for them (to look good).
