Maybe it can't be explained. Putting us down doesn't help, either.
We have our equivalents in Suburbia. Every time they announce a new Starbucks, inevitably you hear about the demise of the local diner or coffee house. Ten years ago, Borders was killing the local book store.
What I don't understand is the violence. Tell me what justifies theft or violence against a stranger who did absolutely nothing to you.
We're all carpetbaggers. Every single one of us. There isn't a person in America who can trace his or her roots back to the first Americans who left traces of some sort of community thousands of years ago in what's called Poverty Point, Louisiana.
