I shared a story a while back from a guy in Pakistan. He said that they hate that America is always playing the policeman of the world, but if there has to be a policeman, they are glad it is America.
They are doing such a good job “policing” themselves apparently.

Point missed but that's fine. You get this one. Not worth debating.

Apparently you don’t agree with the points and yet you don’t know what they are? Weird.
If there are points I don’t agree with, I’m not aware of them. I think we both agree you’re not particularly bright.

What does that have to do with us? Are you attempting to make a point or just posting pointless nonsense?

I don’t believe you. I know first hand. You are just making stuff up. Try harder.
The flight time from Wisconsin (WI) to India is:

16 hours, 22 minutes

Are you there yet? How’s the weather?

You might not realize this because of how you think of yourself, but I wasn’t talking to you.

You really find odd things to try to argue about. What exactly is your point exactly?
