killings, woman treated like sh**, minorities persecuted. Really, who wants to visit a place like the US. FFS, you don't even know if you'll be unlawfully imprisoned, or shot walking down the street. And if a woman, there's a chance of being raped. Kids aren't even safe, they get murdered in school.

But I view this as the epitome of privilege.

We have a long way to go before many people want to stop coming to this "shithole country".
