I think the situation will make many American worry since there are frequent gun shot in school and police shooting the black people with too many shooting issues. On the other hand,the higher risk of terrorist attack will always make many American feel insecure in their homeland like never before. The political conflicts among different parties seems getting hotter and hotter each and everyday. And financial problem that the nation needs to face seems to be another big problem that the US government needs to deal with in 2016. I am not an American and I am just someone who lives in Hong Kong and not an expert on commenting a country which I can get all their information from TV news or online news in a daily
basis. That's the reason why I want to post this discussion and willing to learn from anyone who will share more according to their knowledge. Looking forward for your sharing.

You need to take main stream american media with a grain of salt. Our situation is much more complex than they would like to lead the world to believe.
Too much to explain. Just trust me.

And on top of all that, the Miss Universe pageant was a bust lolz
We couldnt even get that right.
It is certainly a very tense America we live in today.
And the political circus is not anything I have ever known in my lifetime..truly an embarrassment.
Despite all the fear of going out and the terror that exists, people are going to go on living, going out, enjoying life, spending money.
It is America and freedom is valuable.

I am afraid that there are some people in America that have their eyes shut and their fingers in their ears and refuse to learn from the experiences of the rest of the world. In the UK there has been no school yard shootings since Dunblane because handguns were banned as a result of the incident and violent crime has been in the decrease ever since. Tackle the problems of the Second Amendment and you may be able to solve the problem.

There aren't as many shootings of blacks by police as the media would like you to believe. The media and racialists (white hate groups and black hate groups) have been trying to start a race war for nearly 40 years now, so you only hear about it when blacks are shot by white cops. What they don't report is that most of these are justified.. They also never report the whites shot by cops (black or white) because that doesn't fit their narrative.
