<p>Having moved to live and work in foreign country I have met and made friends at, so called, <em>expat</em> community in and around Paris. A lot of them are American and I have found they are very patriotic and easy to organize. They&#39;ll quickly build up a website, or shared chat, and start working on a problem or helping others. How was it possible for this to happen then, I wonder? Why did they allow psychopath minority to gerrymander themselves above everyone else?</p>

<p>One protestor held a sign that caught my attention. They wrote:</p>

<blockquote><p>USA<br>
Gun Care<br>
Health Control</p></blockquote>

<p>I hope this makes a lot of people mad.</p>
