我不了解各位的情况,但过去的 20 天比我所经历的 20 年更加漫长。今天,在场

10 月 28 日,我们第一次抗议的当晚,Kimmel 先生说:今天是个古怪的日子……2 g6 D# [1 O1 s* d [+ c1 T

在给 80-20 的信中,ABC 仍声称其旨在娱乐大众,别无他意。请问,难道拿“杀

10 月 29 日,Kimmel 先生将这一切归罪于文化差异的理念,多么可笑。我请问,8 X* o7 a' R! M. K& D
您所谓的“文化差异”是什么意思?勤奋工作、赢得尊重、热爱和谐的文化?还是暴力* \7 f4 ~4 A: k2 N9 P1 H
和种族仇恨的文化?这二者区别何在?我相信我们与 Kimmel 之间的确存在着天壤之别
