The week's question
In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

WiltonKnight: But hopefully this shows an 'exploding' minority in Europe - NOT to fall for xenophobic 'assimilation' nonsense - and hopefully it makes them feel just a bit more ostracized.

From your link:

Only two people were expected to take part in the demonstration, according to the Stockholm police, including the organiser, Salwan Momika, who in a recent newspaper interview described himself as an Iraqi refugee seeking to ban the Koran.

CNN reports that the second person taking part in the demonstration is Momika's translator.

"Exploding," you say. Right.

For some reason I am reminded of Springsteen's lyric -- "Well, big wheels roll through fields where sunlight streams
Meet me in a land of hope and dreams" -- and of Penny's comment to Howard on The Big Bang Theory: "You're really a broken toy, aren't you?"
