    and I'll say it again.

    Poxie servers" are illegal hacking tools which let communist Open Sourcerers destroy America. Luckily the Limeys are not very clever. Nevertheless, only the death penalty is good enough for these evil hackers.

    The UN condemning something is hardly evidence of anything, but I don't think what you're talking about actually happened. As it stands, the US is far gentler on our prisoners than most countries. Certainly gentler than freaking Britain. Have you heard of Irish Terrorists? Do you brits even have any rights anymore? The US is headed in the wrong way on privacy, and Bush is a huge part of the problem, but thank God I'm not living in horrible Britain where I cannot protect myself from thugs or spying government cameras.

    And Britain is actually a lovely place, too. But the US isn't some demon nation. think for yourself, pal!
