Have you compared the Australian rates with Texas? There are no population densities in Australia that come anywhere near those in NYC.
What are you so proud of?
lol...
who says that size doesn't matter?
by design and by necessity...
High rise, high density living is not very conducive to residential happiness...
good question...another thread perhaps
It definitely matters when we’re talking about an insect the size of a baseball mitt.
Just passing through - is this thread turning into another “bash America” discussion?
Another hit to USA pride:
Trump declares he is withdrawing funding (15% of WHO budget) from the World health Organization right in the middle of a global pandemic...mainly to deflect from the criticism of his handling of the crisis ( according to radio reports here)
Gosh! Withdrawing 15% of an organizations budget in the middle of a global crisis is utterly typical of the president that the USA elected and does nothing about.
The attack on the WHO means that the Pacific region will suffer and all because Americans see fit to allow a crazy president to stay in office...
On top of that there are other nations that will step in and fill the gap....leaving the USA void of voice and further isolated.
It also means that China is looking good and will make further inroads into global dominance.
Do you think the two members here posting ( you know whom I refer to ?) are a good examples of wise Americans?

Not really about bashing America but demonstrating the frustration that comes from having stupid decisions impacting on the global community.

But Trump isn’t the sum total of the United States. He is the current President and will either be outvoted or survive another four years. But, he wasn’t every American’s choice. The US is very diverse and we simply can’t be compared to more homogenous cultures. And while I’m not a fan of Trump, he’s only been in office three years. I don’t think everything that has ever gone wrong with the planet, all started on his watch. He gets blamed for things that happened ten years ago. I don’t like the guy but if we keep blaming him for everything that is going wrong, we will never learn learn how to work together.
I’ll say though that how I’d sum up Trump is he seems to be more of a fair weather President, not the best to have during adversity.
It is the principle of acquiring potential energy from a non-depleting resource that has you guys so frazzled. - QQ 2020
But it is a clean and infinite resource that will be around as long as the oceans exist. - QQ 2020
The point is that pressure can be mined as a primary resource. - QQ 2020

And then you explained why you were making these claims:
I knew jack sh*t about fluid mechanics before starting this thread...and still do. lol - QQ 2020
Probably. Attacking others can help allay people's fears, and make them think that they are not so poorly off.
The fact is that Trump IS the face of America to all those who live outside the USA.
He has withdrawn the USA from just about every international agreement that the USA had with out what appears to be legitimate reasons.
He has forced the international community to consider the USA as untrustworthy when it comes to treaties or agreements.
He has failed to grasp that globalization is inevitable and that the long term and respected leadership the USA had provided ( with exceptions of course ) is no longer considered as possible.
He is the face of America and all Americans are tainted by his "face"...his values , morals and ethics are deemed to be typical of Americans.
The current crisis in the USA provided him with and opportunity to bring the nation together and consolidate the union. He failed to do so. He in fact divided the union even more so with threats and intimidation.
...and even after all this the world is looking at another 4 years and possibly more because for sure Trump will attempt to revoke the fixed 2 term amendments and what is more the USA will probably allow him to do so..
So what are we outside the USA to think?

take it to the thread quoted billvon... and maybe settle down a little before you post...
I find it amusing that when I post something that consists of almost nothing but your own words, your reaction is "settle down." Perhaps take your own advice?
I honestly don't judge an entire country's population, based on its leader. However, Trump has quite a following, indeed. But, judge those people, not all of us who dislike Trump. He has a 49% approval rating the last time I checked, that means 51% don't approve. They're Americans, too!
Why do you wish to destroy sciforums?
You didn't quote my words...
take it to the thread in question..and use the quoting system provided...
Would it be correct in inferring that the 49% minority are citizens with the typical American minded gun culture?
Is this aspect of American life so difficult for them to let go? Obviously yes to the last question.
