Shooting at school again
This time in Las Vegas six pupils have been wounded at a bus stop by gunmen.
Something should be done? I guess European governments start giving travel warnings and discourage their citizens to travel to this war zone. |

And the US has been any different? They had a number of wars with various Indian tribes, have been at war with Mexico several times, tried to invade Canada several times, had a hell of a bloody civil war. There is hardly a decade in the last two centuries that they have not been at war somewhere. the only difference is they take their wars overseas. |

I am not European you retard, but it is not surprise that you respond with a profane rant and bizarre accusations rather than address the facts. What was the last decade that the US was not involved in a war somewhere? |

Serbia, for example, is still griping about a war they lost 600 years ago in Kosovo and also the repeat of a few years ago. At least the US won most of its wars except Vietnam and the War of 1812 which was essentially a draw. -- Jim Silverton Potomac, Maryland |

Serbia, for example, is still griping about a war they lost 600 years ago in Kosovo and also the repeat of a few years ago. Indeed, nationalism is a touchy issue. the Irish are still whining about English injustice, conveniently forgetting their constant attempts to help other Catholic nations overthrow the English. The Basques are unhappy. The Indians and Pakistanis continue to skirmish over disputed territories. At least the US won most of its wars except Vietnam and the War of 1812 which was essentially a draw. Yes, they have won most of their wars, though there are some who dispute they lost Vietnam, and to call 1812 a draw is being generous to the US considering that their goal was to annex Canada and they failed. However I was responding to the Shark's comment that Europe has been war zone after another and asked how the US is any different because it has been involved in one war after another throughout its history. It started before independence: 1675-76 King Phillips War Colonies vc several Indian tribes 1689-97 King William's War Colonies vs France 1702-13 Queen Anne's War Colonies vs. France 1744-48 King George's War French COlonies vs Britain 1756--63 French Colonies vs. Great Britain 1759-61 Cherokee War Colonists vs Cherokee Indians 1775-83 Colonies vs. Great Britain 1785-97 Northwest Indian War US vs Indians 1794 Nijack Expedition US vs Indians 1798-1800 Franco American War US vs France 1801, 1805 1815 Barbary Wars US vs algiers, Tunis and Tripoli 1806 Sabone Expedition US vs Indian 1812-15 War of 1812 US vs Great Britain 1813-14 Creek War US vs Creek Indians 1817 Seminole War US vs Seminole Indians 1827 Winnebego War US vs Indian 1832 Balckhawk War US vs Indian 1834 Pawnee Indian Territory campaign 1835 Second Seminole War US vs Seminole Indians 1836 War of Texas Independence US vs Mexico (Americans move into a Mexican province and then fight for independence ... blatant land grab) 1836 FLorida-Georgie order War 1836-75 Texas Indian Wars 1837 Osage Indian War 1840 Great Raid of 1840 1849 Antelope Hills Expedition 1862 Dakota War of 1862 1863 COlorado War 1868 Commanche Campaign 1876-77 Black Hills War 1877 Nez Perce War 1890 Pine Ridge Campaign 1874-75 Red River War 1846-48 Mexican War .... Americans moved into Mexican territory... tried to buy it.. provoked war and settled war by buying the land ... blatant land grab 1861-65 US Civil War Union vs Confederacy 1898 Spanish American War US vs Spain 1914 WWI 1915 Punitive expedition into Mexico 1941-45 WWII 1950-53 Korean War 1960-75 Vietnam 1961 Pay of Pigs Invasion 1983 Grenada 1989 Panama 190-91 Persian Gulf War 1995-96 Nato intervention in former Yugoslavia 2001 Invasion of Afghanistan 2003 Invasion of Iraq As you can see from this list, there is hardly a decade in which the US has not been at war. So as I pointed out to the previous poster, the US is not much different from Europe in quality or quantity of warfare. |
