There are plenty of auto mechanics and refrigeration technicians that make good wages in my town.

You should look for a job that cannot be exported like auto mechanic or even a hair dresser.

Much of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was good indeed. However, that Act did give rise to the notion that "some Animals are more equal than other Animals" as George Orwell put it. The Obama administration is full of EEO incompetents but the MSM is not willing to identify them.

“It was written in their Koran, that all nations which had not acknowledged the Prophet were sinners, whom it was the right and duty of the faithful to plunder and enslave; and that every mussulman who was slain in this warfare was sure to go to paradise. He said, also, that the man who was the first to board a vessel had one slave over and above his share, and that when they sprang to the deck of an enemy's ship, every sailor held a dagger in each hand and a third in his mouth; which usually struck such terror into the foe that they cried out for quarter at once.”

I heartily support your sentiment. You might have mentioned the "rage" these Muslims have when little girls are actually given or attempt to obtain an education. For example, fifteen year old, Malala Yousafza, was shot in the head by the Taliban for merely wanting to promote education for girls.

It is merely that when the atoms inside my skull happen, for physical or chemical reasons, to arrange themselves in a certain way, this gives me, as a by-product, the sensation I call thought. But, if so, how can I trust my own thinking to be true? It’s like upsetting a milk jug and hoping that the way it splashes itself will give you a map of London. But if I can’t trust my own thinking, of course I can’t trust the arguments leading to Atheism, and therefore have no reason to be an Atheist, or anything else. Unless I believe in God, I cannot believe in thought. So I can never use thought to...
