Where do you draw the line

 We sometimes have differing opinions but we "draw-the-line" between our opinions and personal attacks.  

Discussing issues is part of my personality. I'm used to it. I will discuss just about anything with just about anyone. I've been doing it almost all my life. I have very close friends back home that I have known for many years, some since childhood. When we get together whether one on one or a group of us we end up discussing some hot topic. Like today, we would be discussing the Warriors/Cavaliers game. Maybe Nadal vs Dominic. Maybe the MLB and the upcoming  All Star Game. whatever, it's usually sports and occasionally politics. 

If you have ever seen 2 elderly Italians arguing, you would think that they would soon be reading punches. They pound the table, shout and curse but never strike each other. The same with Spanish gents.

On the other hand, short tempered Mexicans do not argue much before they start fighting. It might be the booze or their Indian blood but not their Spanish blood. 

My observation.

I went whale watching once on the streets of Porkland Oregon. I really don't see what the big deal is? Did I misspell that?

Nope you didn't do anything, they were discussing Wales and I put on my silly American hat and posted a video of whales.

The Lumads are the indigenous people (tribes) of southern Mindanao. Their home area is in Muslim area or rather the Muslims have settled in Lumads area. They are poor, uneducated and live off the land or make stuff to sell or trade. In my opinion it is a misnomer to label them as Muslim Lumads. They were probably forced to convert to Muslims. Then again what do I know
