By the way, for those of you who have only flow on domestic (american) airlines, I'd like to inform you that flying is enormously better outside the US.  Nearly all non-US airlines have much better service and friendlier staff than any american airline, and most importantly foreign airports have much more efficient and less intrusive security forces.

Not Heathrow. Heathrow is hell in every way.

Like Paris.

No, actually I drove through Newark two days ago
HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH this comment explains a lot about you. NAIVE
And the last time you went to Newark?  It is about as impoverished as a place in America that you will find.  It hails in comparison even to Passaic and Paterson which are pretty horrendous.  I've also been to Harlem and other slums

Go to Detroit. That's about as bad as it gets.
I can't say I've been there, but I can imagine.  Newark is a slum though
I don't know what these people are talking about but they've obviously have never been to certain parts of Newark.

Which people?
Whoever believes Newark doesnt have poverty.

It doesn't. You don't know what poverty is.
Yea....you try going into Newark and say they have it good. Both the conditions that you must be thinking of and that I am thinking of are both unexcusable Don't give me this "you don't know real poverty" BS.

Why the hell do any of us have to explain ourselves to a 13 year old like Xahar? Go back to the kiddy table and eat your chicken fingers, the grown-ups are trying to have a conversation.

oh snap.

That's too bad for the grown-ups, isn't it?

And how old are you? I'm glad you're getting a chance to get over your inferiority complex by calling yourself a "grown-up". I'm as capable of intelligent thought as you. You know you've won when you get attacked personally.

Dude things that are taken for granted in Newark are not available in slums all over the world. At least 95% of the people in Newark have running water and access to a bathroom right? Yeah that is a luxury in slums all over the world. Again like I said Newark is a dangerous place but it is nowhere close to being the most impoverished place on earth.

You obviously don't. Visit an actual slum, one where the buildings are made of cardboard and sheet metal, not just run down and neglected; one where there is no clean water; one where disease runs rampant; one where they can't count on drugs to at least bring some money into the slum. If Newark is anything like the bad parts of Baltimore, Philadelphia, or D.C., I can't imagine it being anywhere as hopeless as Bangkok or just about any major city in South Asia or Africa.

You know Xahar, you're last thing is absolutely false. When I attack someone its because I'm lazy and want to be an asshole more than anything else. Only idiots attack when they cannot argue and I don't think that I would call anyone, except Josh and GPorter idiots on this forum. Plus you're such an excellent punching bag that I couldn't resist, and for that I am sorry. There are plenty of know it alls on this forum Xahar it's just that most people, at least the older ones, come to realize over time that constantly telling people that makes them want to do nothing more than kick you in the balls repeatedly for being an annoying prick. I have no inferiority complexes, except when it comes to women.

Also, what is the point of aging if I can't pull the "I'm older and wiser than you, f**ktard" card on those younger than me. Don't take the morally superior tone with me Xahar, you'll do the exact same thing. You already pull the "I'm smarter than all you f**ktards" card with people twice your age now so what makes you think you're somehow above what I did?

Poverty is poverty. Some live in extreme poverty, others do not. There really isn't an argument to this. There are plenty of places in America and other developed nations which contain poverty. I could give a sh**t about Bangkok.  It's degree of poverty doesnt take away others'.

I'm not making a case that it is one of the most impoverished places on earth. It has poverty. It meets its definition and any normal person would agree.

It's time we end all this, this is America, no one is poor or neglected bull. This is reality...granted it's not like those found in Africa or elsewhere, but it's still poverty.
opebo is referring to Asian airports, which so terribly destroy American airports it's not even funny.
That's mostly because we have older infrastructure because we developed faster. Unfortunately for our airports, we can't afford closing JFK so we can build high tech.

DWTL was trying to say that he had seen all the poverty he needed to see by driving through Newark and that is just naive and I pointed that out. I am not saying that the people in Newark are not impoverished and that they are not hurting. Their problems are different from those in slums in Asia and Africa. They need better schools and less drugs. In the third world the slums would be happy with just some water and food. I am not trying to make moral equivalancies or any s**t like that since people in all slums are hurting. I was just pointing out the differences.

Xahar is rich and has never been outside of his parent's gated community or overseas resorts in dubai. He has less knowledge of the facts on the ground than even the most disconnected middle class suburbanite.
