You're starting to make less sense the more you reply, sorry. > Most folk on HN would agree that discriminating on race is a no-no. But that is exactly what our constructs called nation-states do at their borders And? The point is that people are not their government. They disagree with what they govt is doing and speak out. What's your point exactly? Again, your bad actions are not justified by the bad actions of others. I think you need to work through your logic, otherwise, you might end up justifying murder because.. well... people do it, right?

>> And? The point is that people are not their government. Out of curiosity - I don't spend much time in the developed world - do you REALLY believe this? The mere possession of 3,800 nuclear weapons over the better part of a century and despite the commitments in the NNPT - means that ultimately the developed world will hold the citizens of other countries responsible for the actions of their governments. The cognitive dissonance is astonishing.
