| Ok..you lot know I'm very opinionated, and often times a bit of a complete nutter...
I've read both sides of this thread (and I'm refering to Groundstarts view AND Silent's views)...and all can really say is this:
We live in a country, in my opinion (note: OPINION) a once great country, where we have a basic right called freedom of speach. Basic right set down by our forefathers who moved to this country for many reasons. Think this: 200 plus years ago we fought to the death, NOT to start our own country, NOT to gain independance from another country (don't belive? read up on it) but to get out of PAYING EXCESS TAXES!!
Even then, there were differing opinions on wheather we should go to war against mother England. Many thought then what many of us think now, that our government was full of money hungry war mongers. Which, we know now, WAS the case.
Nothing's changed, and why should it....is the USA the best country in the world? It is for some, but not for all. Regardless, we live here, and we have the ability to disagree without starting a war.....but then again....we've done just that, haven't we. __________________ You can't wield supreme executive power just because some watery tart threw a sword at you - Look, if I went 'round saying I was an Emperor, just because some moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!  |
