I did not misunderstand. I know you don't believe America is a barbaric country. This "barbaric" designation is reserved for Russia, based on your opinion. :) America - such a blended nation. I think it's all part of the beauty! I don't live in such a mixed neighborhood. Mostly white, young professionals in my area. But in my parents neighborhood it's almost all Latin American immigrants. I think there's only one mosque in DC.
