    I'm Canadian, you peace of shit! You know, yet another one of the "subversive" countries who actually had the balls to stand up to you Iraqi killing bullies regarding your illegal war ("Where are the WMD's?"). AmeriKKKans like to say, "Free speech!" but when somebody exercises their right to it and denounce American policies, you go and change your fast food names and boycott French wines. What a nation of corrupt, illiterate morons.

    It was our 2nd amendment that kept Japan from invading the United States during WW2. Knowing that Americans had the skills to pay the bills, Japan chose not to execute a land invasion on North America. Therefore, since you're Canadian and part of the North American continent, you should be greatful that we protect your ass and allowed you to exist today, even though you do not deserve it at this point.

    "...the speed of light measures YOU! "

    Though the United States and Russia have differing cultural views, there is one thing we both share. We only laugh when the joke is "funny".
