I hope this works out because I don't want our soldiers to dye in vein, while our leader jokes with his buddy at his ranch... I will never support War, unless it 100% just. Look at Canada, man... They don't have half of the problems we have at all. Free Health care.. You could say they even have more freedom, then the "land of the free"


It's a matter of opinion I guess, but I would say even an unsteady democracy is better than a tyrannical dictatorship.

I heard about that, It just makes me sick. Its unbelievable! But I have always voted for Nader. Wasted vote, but I say "what isn't ?"
Nader huh? You're alright in my book. He is the only politician I've seen in years that doesn't make me want to puke. Too bad he won't ever get a chance to get into the White House because he would actually do a good job I think.

Some crazy fucks believe they have the right to have ANY gun ever made because of the 2nd amendment. You know, like we need a AK-47 to do hunting with :rolleyes:, they say hunting is a sport but there is no challenge in hunting. Unless you use a bow and arrow. The 2nd amendment was to up hold our government. Which is impossible because the police have full control of our society.
Hmm... I'm sure you've heard the saying 'If guns are outlawed, then only outlaws will have guns.' I'm not a huge gun nut or anything but it seems to make sense. I dont have any problem with the guy that wants an AK-47 and doesn't intend to harm anyone with it. I do have a problem with some thug using one to shoot up a bank or something. But stricted gun control would not take the thugs guns off the streets because they aren't registered anyways. It would essentially only take away the average citizens right to have equal weaponry as the next guy. I actually think that everyone should own a pistol or two, just for your own protection. You never know when some cracked out asshole is gonna kick in your door to rob you or rape your girl or kid or whatever. Everyone has a right to be able to protect their family in my opinion. Now does that mean, everyone should run out and buy an AK? No. But if there's a chance (Whether they are legal or not) that said crackhead could have one, then it only seems fair that the innocent, law abiding citizen should be able to also.
