Most of the U.S. States alone have almost the land area of an entire dinky european country. My state (Texas) has almost as many people as Great Britan.
One CITY (Los Angeles) alone has almost the same population as all of Scandanavia, the same CITY is probably bigger than Luxembourg and Lichtenstein combined!
Perhaps it would be fairer to compare statistics for one U.S. State to one of the entire European countries.
I would also be willing to wager that the United States has much more racial diversity than any single European country, this is often the source of violence.
It is therefore unfair to directly compare the crime rates of the US to any single European country. I would expect a country of 155 million people to have a higher crime rate than say, Andorra.
By the way, I rarely hear of 8109815087 people being trampled in a soccer stadium, IRA insurrections, or ethnic cleansing here in the US.
Didn't some psycho brit gun down a bunch of children in a schoolyard a few years ago?
Doesnt Britain have strict gun control laws?
Hmm.
You Europeans should stop being so self rightious and arrogant.
Also love his fortune cookies page with a whole file of his own quotes. I bet that he uses them as sigs. He aparently equates himself with great minds like Jefferson and Madison. Also note how trite and stale his quotes are in comparison.
Love the way he put 'Eric Conspiracy' in the Jargon file, what a monkeyfuck. Yes siree that really deserves to be there.
I'm truly glad that he's not in charge of maintaining the dictionary or the Encyclopedia Britanica. I bet you that he'd shove in 'ESR' entires posthaste, along with one of those pictures you show children that refuse to brush their teeth.
Witness: Erich Hartmann, the blond knight of Germany. Average number of bullets he needed to down a russian fighter: 5. Yes, Five. He used to paint his prop spinner with a tulip pattern but had to take it off because the russian pilots would flee at the sight of it.
Adolf Galland, nuff said, a truly great pilot and person.
The German pilots were superior to their british counterparts, but they were utilizing inferior equipment much of the time, with poor leadership at high levels.

You're absolutely incorrect about pilot quality.
Witness: Erich Hartmann, the blond knight of Germany. Average number of bullets he needed to down a russian fighter: 5. Yes, Five. He used to paint his prop spinner with a tulip pattern but had to take it off because the russian pilots would flee at the sight of it.

Well Bill Gates and Steve Jobs don't have really bad teeth.
This guy's hubris is out of control, we need to ditch this peckerwood before everyone thinks all Linux users are like him.
