i believe that if you take a mans life - even the life of a criminal - (if not in self defense), then ur as criminal as he is. Thats about the electrocutions/syringes.
I dont like the extreme left either. The same way i feel with the extreme right too. Truth lies about in the middle, almost every time. I always judge each situation. Always try to see behind the things they only show me.
I got the same feeling about WW3, but without Russia as a possible US opponent. Mostly i get the feeling Iran/Syria and the rest of the countries in the mid-east will form an alliance to defend themselves (!) from a possible US attack sometime soon. I also have the feeling that the US will give them a reason or even start with an attack. Anyway, a war wont solve anything on that. Just everyone will get even more weak, economy will break and people will die. Israel has a right to be there safe, but none attacked them yet (no country anyways). As for the ones that use explosive vests etc, i think they only do harm to their countries.
I dont know about the current situation between the "left" and the "right" in the US. But i hope it wont come to this end and people will get to solve it in a peacefull way.
i hope so too dude. but russia is giving weapons to iran.
the US is not that bad yet, and maybe we can get rid of a lot of the political strife but it sure feels to me, living here and all, that i will be involved in a future civil war here on my soil sometime in the future.
who sells weapons to who isnt important. The US sold weapons to Iran and Iraq too sometime in the past (while they were fighting each other). Same happened with Kuweit. The US and Russia are the biggest weapon sellers in the world right now (with the US to sell more than Russia). Thats about economy, not real support. I dont expect Russia to interfere in any future war not on their own ground.

I was born in Ukraine, and despite the fact that we moved to USA for now and that we are pretty damn going to stay here (I wanted to visit Germany, though), the mentality of our family remained Ukrainian, and we are viewing American culture from the side... has its good and bad points, as any other country...
I am more proud of where i come from than anything else. I have no dobut you all feel the same way about your countries. I was born and raised in Australia. My parents were born in australia, my parents parents and my parents parents parents. After that pretty much everyones ancestors at that stage are something european.
Australia is all about mateship. I liked darkjays speal before, so ill say my version of australia. This is essentially (like what darkjay said) a sterotypical australia. If your australian, football runs through your veins, whether it be afl (our version) or nrl (rugby). You were wifebeaters (singlets, usually blue). Kangaroos, meat pies, BEER. No snow, no tornadoes. No tsunamis, NO GUNS. You wear thongs, and boardies. You want every public holiday you can get. You drive an australian made car, with parts from 50 different countries. The southern cross. You like your women. You support every australian team in sporting, even though you might not know any of the players. You shorten everything you say ('whats going on' here pretty much sounds like: 'sgoin on') and you dont care for proper language. If its gotta be done, it can wait....we are the laziest country on the planet. It will be sunny one day, and raining the next. The most common tattoo you will see is the southern cross, out international symbol (appears on our flag, stars shaped like the cross with an odd one in the middle) and i myself plan to get it. You would fight for your mate if you were outnumbered 100 to 2. You bag your mates 24/7 but its normal. Our superbowl is grand final day. Our kentucky derby is the Melbourne cup. Our george bush is john howard. You love kangaroos, yet youve almost certainly tasted it. Your rather push a holden than drive a ford. Or the other way around. You read all this above and know that your guilty of 90% of it.
FingolfinGR, you are an idiot. Just to clarify, I had to stop reading posts in this thread 5 pages in, simply because I couldn't stand to view your stupidity any more. Everything you said Americans are uninformed on and ignorant of...I've seen on the news. I don't even watch the news regularly (once every 3 months at most, simply because I hate all the terror and bad vibes that American media needlessly spreads), and I've seen MANY references to all of those occurrances over the past few years. You are as uninformed about America as you say that we are about the rest of the world.
P.S. - This is to everyone that has posted here...people will most certainly take your views more seriously if you PROOFREAD YOUR POSTS. I have seen some almost well thought out ideas that will go nowhere in anyone's perception simply because you couldn't be bothered to figure out where to put punctuation and capitalization. Here's a few hints...
- The first word in a sentence is ALWAYS capitalized.
- The pronoun "I" when use to refer to oneself is ALWAYS capitalized.
- A sentence should ALWAYS end in some form of punctuation (period, question mark, etc.).
PLEASE, people, for the love of whatever god you pray to, don't give the world any more excuses to say that Americans are stupid. They have too many already. I'm an American. You can all understand my posts, right? Proper grammar doesn't take that much effort, and it makes you look much more intelligent.

You need to understand that not everyone here is from the United States and not everyone here speaks English as their first language. If you want to address individual issues within people's posts, that's fine. But don't be as petty as to give people grammar and punctuation lessons. While we all would like everyone to use proper grammar, punctuation and capitalization, we're not gonna completely disregard people's posts for not having near perfect mechanics.
To do so would be as silly as me say, lecturing you on thread necromancy.
We gotta make a change...
It's time for us as a people to start makin' some changes.
Let's change the way we eat, let's change the way we live
and let's change the way we treat each other.
You see the old way wasn't working so it's on us to do
what we gotta do, to survive. Tupac Shakur
