You're no better or worse than any other part of the world, we're all human, we all share human faults.

I don't have any sort of dislike especially for america, just for anyone or anything who gets really "Holier than thou."
Doesn't say better Neb. Only states facts.

Does Denmark have more Muslims than Afgahnistan?
Does Denmark have Cherokees and all the other nationalities mentioned?
Was Denmark founded in a similar fashion? Or was it itself an Empire of destructive conquest perhaps.

Sorry mate. [img]smile.gif[/img] There's no comparison. It's not a matter of better or worse, it's just facts.

There's no declaration of Danish independence. The Swedes, Norse and Northern English would have needed declarations of independence FROM the Danes. The Faroes and Greenland still do don't they? Oh resident of an IMPERIAL MONARCHY.
