Oh, don't try to dissuade him from finding fault with the U.S.
government. Isn't that exactly what the rest of us do? But I think you
may have a point anyway. I can't say that I completely agree with
Mostafa on anything he says, but when it comes to his criticisms of the
U.S. government I sometimes come pretty close. Nevertheless, when
he does criticise the U.S. government and we are close to agreement
I still feel myself bristling a little bit. That could be an indication
of some developing chauvinist tendencies on my part that I need to stamp
out.

Mustafa,
Imagine that you are a member of an email list for blind people that is located
in Egypt. Imagine that some American blind people become members of that list.
Then imagine that periodically, one of them writes an email to that list in
Egypt, describing all of the faults he finds with Egyptian culture, religion,
and government. What do you think your response might be? Do you think that
perhaps you'd feel a need to defend your country or your culture or your
government? I suspect that a lot of people on the ACB list, and even on this
list, might feel insulted and defensive when you constantly write posts
criticizing the US. It's irrelevant whether or not the content of your posts is
correct or not. People might feel as if you are attacking them.
Our system of justice in the US is terribly flawed. That is apparent to me
every day. From what I read.

Subject: [blind-democracy] Law enforcement and greed ascendency
What makes the United States allegedly so reputable? It is the averred claim
that legal authority is incomparably the highest entity in the whole nation.
Consequently, justice is assuredly implemented. Well, today I decided to reveal
the truth on that regard. How is law enforcement applied in the States? Before
we get into that, let us first define the work of lobbyism in America's
political arena.
Lobbyism is the Attempt to influence public officials and executives in favor
of specific sentiment or notion. Impounded to that, there are expenses
incurred in promoting or scoping legislation. So for instance, the gun lobby is
so powerful and immensely influential into congressional platform. It's called
NRA. It's the most powerful lobby that advocates the right to own and bear
arms in the States. It furthermore promotes unrestricted firearm possession and
rejects any gun regulation by the government. Despite perennial occurrence of
mass shootings because of unrestricted firearms possession including repeaters,
NRA importunes to boost for unstructured firearms possession. How do they tempt
congressional authority? Factually, they either bribe or intimidate legislature
to deter its members of proceeding to pass any bill that aims to regulate
firearms possession.
They call attempts to regulate firearms possession hyperbole. Many people here
in the Middle East incorrectly assume that law enforcement in the States is
unambiguously unswayed. Now, they knew this is incredibly counterfeit and
gravely delusional. Similarly, the rule is typically applied regarding
America's categorical aid to Israel. There are plenty of Jewish lobbies in the
States to advocate, elevate and boost for Zionist favouritism in Capitol Hill.
Lobbies in American politics are so crucial and mutually influential. Again, a
lobby is basically a bond group of people who try actively to influence
legislative arena. The hate sentiment against Islam in the States is
necessarily impacted with the power of lobbyism. So, law in the States isn't
independent. It's constantly influenced and manipulated by proactive lobbyists.
So, American legislation is attributable to be illimitably rectified,
regurgitated, modified and inevitably aligned with the highest amount that is
to be paid. Republicans are sponsored by certain lobbies and so Democrats.
Thence, neither party is politically autonomous. Each one of them is possessed,
financed and wholly controlled by external bodies. So, opinion is essentially
promoted based on how much is paid. Is this an honourable system?
Leastwise, it is the worst legislative model that has ever maneuvered on earth.
Needless to say, each and every lobby of these as for the gun and Israel one
has its own media to broadly promote its notion.
Muslims in the States are misrepresented because they're often talked about by
others who're not impartial. To the contrary, at any rate, they're prejudiced
about them. If Muslims had enough money to pay those lobbyists, they would have
displaced their major rivals. Truly, the situation is inextricable. So, it's
nothing about stiff principles or invariant convictions. It's all about, how
much is someone willing to pay? The higher you pay, the closer I'm going to be
leaned toward your side. So, ladies and gentlemen, this is how things work. It
is indeed, the filthiest system I ever encountered. In actuality, this is how
Trump was brought to oval office and this is how's he being protected despite
his irreconcilably punishable offences. Well, I'm done.
