Diversity

Diversity and controversy. 
They,  someone, the intellectuals, the government... someone... Has always pointed out the benefits to society of diversity.  Like with most things, there's the upside, and the down side.   No one ever seems to talk about the downside. Cultural, ethnic, and religious differences / origins have always created social division. Ranging from exclusion, to prejudice,  and to persecution. Anyone different was not and is not accepted and treated as equals. Just pick any topic or aspect. Some can not even get along within their own segment. Thousands of years of human development and people still can not simply get along.  America, the melting pot of cultural and ethnic origins can not pull together as one. Add to this  "its all about me" and  "I'm offended by everything" and it makes for the perfect never ending social storm. 
And so it is written...
