@GoldieElaine Goldie, you know I respect your opinions but this one might be a little unrealistic. Like you, I always give people a chance since I've lived all over the world and have been exposed to many different types and beliefs. Personally, I don't happen to think Russia is an enemy and I believe Putin has had a great deal of tolerance and patience with the US. But, the truth is, today, people out there are wound way too tight, and they've been influenced by evil thinking they have refused to change. You and I can implement our tolerance of others, but there will always be those who will criticize and hate us. I suspect from what you write you remain unchanged, strong, and unhurt from the criticism. People are very strange these days, but sounds to me you do very well. You go girl!
