Well, why doesn't he try and ban books about serial killers and violence as well? I recall murder and beatings and torture all grave sins, but somehow it's alright to have books about crazed murderers and not have books about gay people. Let's hope he get publicly laughed at by people for being stup...

Crikey!
The fact that they're performing it before it has become legal is what disturbs me the most. I mean, if they're going to die then a quick death might be better, but at least try not to do it until it is legal.

Man, these issues are so hard to think about...

Maybe make a reply rap to it. Although I'm sure every minority group in Britain would complain...

There's no hating of American soldiers because scandals will just erode the whole process there. It sucks that soldiers can't just go in there and do their jobs, but there will always be some idiot who kills prisoners or tortures people because they are depraved and sick people. The US tries to hush...

Slavery was not even an issue at the beginning of the war - although it was being seen increasingly as a bad thing there was no attempts to ban it until mid-way through the war. So it only became important near the end, and since then people are taught that slavery was the reason the South seceded ...

He has had beautiful words for peace later on, after his speech to the U.N. in 1974, but then negated that with his personal support of Saddam Hussein during the first Gulf War. Why was supporting Saddam in the late 80's/early 90's a bad thing, when America played the devil's advocate and supported...

The Confederacy was a breakaway nation created when the people of several states took up arms against their own country and founded a nation based on their supposed right to allow one human being to own another human being. That's not entirely true. The Confederate states broke away because they we...

It's a pity he can't voluntarily go off to be questioned. I mean, if he has no guilty role in the formation of the Junta he'll be back here in no time. I doubt it though. And the US would certainly not make any attempt to resolve this black spot of history once and for all, would it? At least not un...

You'd hate me if I kicked you out of your home and claimed I my anscestors lived there 3000 years before you so it's really mine. Correct me if I am wrong but the Israelis were getting attacked by egypt and the Palestinians Israel kicked their ass and kept there land. Why is this wrong? So because ...

Just remember that it goes the other way too, with other religious extremists killing Muslims (or Jews, or Hindus, etc) for stuff like this. I have a feeling that deep within Christian America (wherever the Bible Belt is these days) Islamic people are getting treated poorly too, and eventually somet...

You know, normally most of your complaints are just minor, but this one is stupid. It's pretty much a case of "get stuffed". A name doesn't harm anyone, so why are people getting so worked up over it? It seems to be only a couple of intolerant Muslims and Jews though... Jewish and Muslim c...

No, I agree it's not really a racist symbol. The Union didn't even attempt to abolish slavery until like 1863 or something, and that was merely to provide an excuse to continue fighting and stop England from recognising the secession. But people don't know that, and when they think of a Confederate ...

Okay...some people (ie Stormwatch) seem to be missing the point here. It is called satire . People make jokes that poke fun at politicians, celebrities, etc. Michael Moore is a satirist - ie. Not a political opponent in any way except humour. And his stuff is funny. I'm no brainless left-winger, but...

Ah, Michael Moore.
We know you're full of crap, but don't go yet. We need satire

Or the Russians decide that they got ripped off over Alaska and wanted it returned to them?

Or Mexico asks for Texas and California back? Actually, that'd be a good one, since the rest of the US would have an economic downward spiral if California left

What's with Southerners and that damned flag? I thought the stars and stripes was the flag worthy of respect, and the Confederate flag a fairly irrelevant heritage symbol. It's like the Eureka Stockade flag from the 1850's in Australia - you don't see all the workers running around swearing alliegan...

The jews lived there first they both have claims to that land. Well, they didn't actually. Also in your Indian example they lived in America first so they have claim to the land, not Caucasians/Blacks/Hispanic people who now form the majority. Arafat won the Nobel Peace Prize with Rabin, so it wasn...

I'm up for this game

Why is it that these things only happen in the US forces? Is it government policy for stupid people only to enter the National Guard?
