"How about we look at those real problems first before we get our panties in a bunch over something so trivial?"
Because when we get involved in trying to break up the locals fun, they kill our folks in addition to each other!
I've been watching the global circus for decades, and now I not only don't care about the vermin going hacky-stabby on each other, it amuses me and I view them with bottomless contempt.
If YOU want to intervene, join Doctors Without Borders or some other group with huge balls and no sense.
"Because we're supposed to be a civilized nation that doesn't kill people for difference of political opinion?"
That supposition ignores there is zero hope for peaceful change. All we have is the illusion elections matter.
Vote for Obamny 2012! Yay!
I'm much too comfortable to take up the hopeless fight for a backward, degenerate American public I despise more every year, but would certainly have found it amusing if Flight 93 had drilled Congress and sent those pieces of shit to a toasty demise. There is no reason to give a fuck.

"OK, seriously. Religion is what you believe. Mythology is what "unenlightened" people that believe differently than you believe."
Absent proof, BOTH are scornworthy and insupportable.

That Genie has left the bottle. Any country, or any INDIVIDUAL, can play.
