1. Fahrenheit isn't an archaic scale. It's in current usage by many laypeople and engineers...

Who live in the red zone.

Which will work out splendidly, as first shown on SNL.

Let me guess. Is that in Europe?

Last week LulzSec released a list of everybody in the world's PIN. I found mine in there anyway!

Dude, get a grip and watch less Republican TV.

America kills willingly and deliberately. Panama, Nicaragua, the Dominican Republic, Chile etc etc and that's only Latin America. Once you're finished down there ask yourself what exactly you were fighting for in Vietnam. And then ask yourself what you're really fighting about in Afghanistan and Iraq. Freedom? Safety? Anti-terrorism? Right, freedom from Saddam's rule? He wasn't stopping you from buying widgets from Wal-Mart. Safety from the Taleban? They had trouble finding a car that could travel from town to town, forget having the logistical capability to mount an attack outside their own borders. Anti-terrorism? You mean like Waco, Ruby Ridge and the LA Police? The purpetrators of 9/11 aren't even certain.

Questions of culpability aside, 9/11 is a pretext. Its repeated coverage is despicable, relegating the families of the dead to poster children for the "War on Terror" and destriction of civil rights.

Oh yea, and "these Islamic death cultists" really don't give two shits about Americans in America. Its the Americans outside America raping foreign coutries for oil, copper and manufactured goods. Try reading something that isn't state run propaganda before commenting on politics. If you think you have freedom of the press, you're fooling yourself. If you think that there really are "Islamic Crazy Cultists" out there who are sitting in a dark corner plotting to take away your freedoms, then you're missing the fact that your freedoms are actually being taken away by your own government. Wake up. For your own sake, I beg you to wake up.

You think you have problems? Every time I try to copy a file in Windows, it gets, ahem, contaminated with something.

See for yourself.

I tried a similar experiment but instead I used CDs that did play Kings of Leon to see if I could get them to stop.

I tried putting them in the microwave, throwing them across the room, smashing them with my head, and then eating them.

It worked! I never had to listen to the Kings of Leon again...

Utterly destroyed? Your God Bless America rant is amusing in its ignorance. You really, really need to meet someone from another country. Baby steps, after that you can perhaps travel a bit. After that you might even venture outside the areas considered "safe" for tourists and maybe even meet a real live non-American! Perhaps then you'll realize that America is not God's gift to planet Earth and that the 5.8 billion people *not* living in America aren't just sitting around waiting for you to come liberate them.

Anyway here goes:

First things first. "see Black Hawk Down" ??? You mean the movie? No fking way! You're seriously using a movie as a reference? Wow dude, you need to go back to school. I really shouldn't bother continuing after such a collossal display of myopic, self-inflicted ignorance.

Do "we" impose governors and taxes upon them. Yes. Elected popular governments are overthrown for pro-US, corporate-friendly governments. Taxes aren't called taxes, they are called "corporate profits". See: Ecuador, Panama, Chile, Afghanistan, Iraq, Vietnam and Nicaragua for examples of governments overthrown by the US for dubious reasons. See Pfizer in Nigeria, Nike in China, United Fruit Company in Chile, Shell in Nigeria, Unocal in Afghanistan and Bechtel in Bolivia for examples of US firms pillaging the local populations.

I don't know what is really going on in Iraq at the moment, the world will have to wait until the dust settles before any real information can come out, but all I know is that if Saddam was really such a tiny minority, how is it that a tiny minority of a starving, badly armed country are causing the might of the US military so much greif? Could it be that those who wish the US to leave are not in the minority? You'll probably refute this, as I didn't source the information from the hallowed spring of pure truth that is Hollywood, which you seem to consider so reliable. Also remember that Vietnam was supposedly a war of justice against a minority. I can't believe some Americans (not even the majority any more) are falling for it again.

No Iraqi that I've ever heard, or Muslim anywhere for that matter, has said anything about declaring Jihad on everyone or establishing a world-wide umma. They just want the west and their abusive corporations out of their countries. It's not just Muslim countries but just about every debt-ridden third world country that the international finance cartel has managed to stick huge debts to. They pay rulers to allow them to pillage the country's people and resources, and if the ruler refuses the bribe, they get called a "rogue state" or "communist" or something similar. Examples here include Chilean leader Allende, Jacobo Arbenz Guzman of Guatemala and Hugo Chavez of Venezuela. You seem to get your education from US television and movies though, as you consider Che Guevara to be a terrorist. As such, I doubt you'll consider any of those people "decent" either, as they all run contrary to US corporate interests and get painted in a bad light on television and in movies. Heaven forbid that people don't want corporations to rule their lives. Oh no, such people are evil/communist/rogue/terrorist and must be killed at once!

Methods make the terrorist hey? Lets have a look at Abu Ghraib, Guantanamo Bay and the emerging Steven Green issue. Then there's things like Waco, Ruby Ridge and this. Oh, and what kind of benevolent government needs to spy on its own people in the name of "National Security" and enact laws that make the punishment for copyright infringement greater than robbing an old lady?

And it's BS that the US stopped Milosevic for humanitarian reasons. If they gave a toss about helping people they'd also have done something in Rwanda, East Timor, Chile under Pinnochet, South Africa under Apartheid and a whole host of other atrocities that are happening now. So don't give me this "yea but we are just trying to help" crap. It's all about controlling the distribution of

"Don't agree? Show us the video." Well, in Soviet Russia...(funny video)
