Political Correctness got you down?
22 May 2009I hear it all the time; you can’t say that. But why not, I just did you see? Besides it’s the truth isn’t it? They say; “well yes, it is the truth, but you cannot say that!” Do you sometimes believe it is all a bunch of crap? We have the PC police running around […]
The Dehumanization Of Humanity

Thousands of Weapons to be Destroyed by Cambodian Government Next Week in Siem Reap and Sihanoukvill
27 April 2009It is undeniable that Cambodia is changing. When I arrived in Cambodia in 1995, one in three Cambodians I met carried a weapon. Arms were for many the only way to ensure security.
