My name is Richard. I was born and raised in Berkeley, California, and grew up there in the 60's. Being born and raised in Berkeley is like being born in another country other than the U.S. examples follow: I was almost 16 before I realized that "Damn" and "America" were two diferent words. I never realized that some "Pigs" had 4 legs and a curly tail. I thought they all wore blue and carried badges and guns. People from Berkeley can't spell - they think "Patriot" is a 4 letter word. I never new that this country was called U.S.A. I thought it was called T.B.N. - because everytime someone from Berkeley refers to this country, it is always: "This B****** Nation this, and This B****** Nation that, etc." Thus T.B.N.

Now that I am retired, I spend my days trying to figure out why Muslims will not join the leaderless, disorganized, anonymous, resistance, and try to counter the propaganda war being waged against them by America. Put your pens and keyboards to work. This keeping your eyes down and mouths shut is not working anymore.Stop bickering with each other, and get united. Question 911, etc. A good place to start is listening to Mike Revero on his radio program at www.whatreallyhappened.com. He is doing what the Muslims are too afraid or naive to do.
