Response to: Why does everyone hate america? Posted September 21st, 2003 in Politics

Hey you guys, I know this post is about hating america, but what about all the reasons to love america?
Like the fad of patriotism instigated by the bush administration in an attempt to raise bush ratings/boost the economy...oh wait no bad example
Wait! What about taking care of war reparations by selling another country's resources and THEN taking $87 bilion...damn.
Or how about Bush's brilliant solution to the welfare problem...wait there isn't one
I know! Our mcdonald's taste better than any other around the world!
*phew* who knew finding things to love about america was so hard?
But seriously, even if bush wasn't in office, there would still be reasons to hate america. Why? Because we're a country of descendants of rejects. Literally.

What do I have to prove to you and why are you emphasizing my age like it matters?
I'm not all knowing. I don't pretend to be. I search for the truth.
Besides, why accuse? It only makes you look ignorant.

Look at the name of the topic, chief

Response to: Caucasian Club? Posted September 19th, 2003 in Politics

Well I mean if she wants to start a club that explores the cultural and historical background of people of european descent, then why not? We have gay/straight alliances, why not a complete race alliance?
Only through a search for the truth can we ever hope to find understanding of the world around us

Response to: Prostitution Posted September 19th, 2003 in Politics

In new york (specifically long island) it's corporal prostitution. Women become servile to their asshole egotistical republican husbands just so they can spend their whole day shopping with the husband's paycheck rather than going to college, getting an education, and marrying a man who respects them.
Is this so much better than the woman at the corner? At least she's honest with everyone.

Response to: Who agrees with me? Posted September 19th, 2003 in Politics

Yet what kind of society would we be if we all locked ourselves away in our homes and did what we wanted?
What's wrong with getting the attitude of people to change? What's wrong with tolerance?
Granted, there will always be those who are intolerant of things they don't understand (i.e. homosexuality), but I think that in reaching out to one another in a common goal we will all achieve true joy instead of the superficial highs from drugs, sex, etc.

I don't think we were put here with a given purpose. I think we were put on this earth to experience enlightenment and truth. Through these processes we can gain a better understanding of our surroundings and how to achieve the ultimate goal of utopia
(wow that just sounded really hippy-ish. Sorry)

What is this talk like a pirate day? There were signs all over my school for it and some people actually dressed like pirates.
I feel like I'm missing something

...so how bout them illegal immigrants?

Response to: Prostitution Posted September 19th, 2003 in Politics

Well you can't make women respect themselves. But I think the whole "it's going to happen anyway" argument is really weak. I mean, yeah it's inevitable but let's try to ameliorate the situation by making it safer and taking it out of the hands of drug dealers.

Response to: Illegal Immigrants Posted September 19th, 2003 in Politics

You see the idiots who post here. Technicalities are a misnomer.
Yeah I'm 15. I also have the equivalent of half a college degree. Age means nothing unless you're an egotistical bastard who is frustrated because the world cannot meet your demands and must therefore use age as a way to justify your worth to people younger than you.
Hey asshole, if you want respect, go out and earn it.

Response to: Illegal Immigrants Posted September 19th, 2003 in Politics

Hey asshole, let's stick to the topic.

I was gonna say something else, but that pretty much sums it up
Oh, and you're a hypocrite. Weed may well be a good and natural substance (I wouldn't know. I've never smoked it). It's still illegal. Regardless of the reasons, it is. Rather than taking your beef up on this website, why don't you go DO something about it?
Reason: you're a pussy

Response to: Illegal Immigrants Posted September 18th, 2003 in Politics

Well the whole reason the illegal immigrant issue is so out of control is because no one wants to handle it. Why? Because they provide a valuable service: cheap labor. Yet with all this supply of cheap labor, why do we still have sweatshops? And why is the border situation so impossible that people are risking their lives to flee into this country illegally rather than apply legally?
Reason: It's faster and a hellluva lot easier
But seriously, these aren't the people on welfare and living in middle america wasting space. They're in cities, in dirty apartments, working for less than minimum wage, and are satisfied.
On the other hand, as much as they are hard working and amirable, they still broke a major law getting into this country. I don't think that should just be ignored. Now I'm not saying send them all back to mexico, but what if we just made it easier to get into this country legally? Perhaps background checks, to make sure we know exactly who is coming into this country.
...oh wait, we haven't even solved the problems in our own country with that. Legal american citizens are commiting crimes at the same rate. Illegal or legal, where you come from has nothing to do with it.
Why DO we have such a gun problem in this country?

Bush doesn't have foreign policy. His main gola is to do a hat-and-song dance while he distracts us from many disturbing facts about his presidency:
-Elected my ass. If bush has a %50 popularity rating, he's doing better than he did in the election
-You can take out our president and vice president with a pretzel and a magnet
-His failure to remember that he's not in Texas anymore, therefore wearing cowboy hats and saying things like "let's get 'em" isn't acceptable. Only in b-grade cowboy movies, and the "'em" that they're usually referring to are native americans
"native americans...indians...look like iraqis...hey! Let's screw them ALL over!!"-bush's train of thought
-Only NOW does he care about the welfare crisis in america. Oh by the way, the election's coming up. Do you think he noticed?

You guys, stop arguing. Let's just face the facts: if our president really cared about civilians and the victims of 9/11, he would have used the money he wasted I MEAN used in the "war on Iraq" to help them. Deficit my ass. I think our tax dollars should go to something else other than his ego and his lack of penis.
