One of two things is going on here: a) either we have a rash of incompetent idiots in charge of nuclear weapons, or b) these people are perfectly competent....which is the problem, for whoever wants them out of the way.

My ancestors settled where they did to avoid persecution from fucktards like you. So how about you get the fuck out...asshole.

You talk about others having their heads crammed up their asses and huffing paint fumes; I suppose you must be the expert.

    Do you not realize that 50+% of this country is currently on the verge of a shooting war with the Feds? All it will take at this stage is one wrong move or a sarcastic comment from the "authorities" and one of those rednecks you so despise will have had enough and decide to reenact Oklahoma City. It hope not, but the reality is it may already be in progress somewhere in some dark hollow in this country. Then in response the Feds will take that moment to crack down hard with their domestic army (aka the TSA) they've been quietly building for some years now. Then we will be in a mother fucking Civil War. Are you ready for that, asshole? Of course not. Because you're a fucking idiot. That's why you're too stupid to see the real meaning behind this anti-drone hunting license.

    And of course, even if you have sufficient quantity of brain cells to see and understand the undeniable truth of where we're headed, clueless idiots such as yourself will still sit there smugly thinking about how you can't wait cause you or your fascist buddies are going to put the hurt on those dumb inbred rednecks you so despise.

    Yes. Stop driving on public roads, using your tap for water, sewage pipes for drains/toilet, and purchasing inspected food. The city will be by shortly to remove your streetlight and disconnect your electricity, water and sewage connections.

    "Our"? You mean mine. I own that park.

    When your house catches on fire, make sure you have lots of buckets of rain water (no tap, remember?) to put it out, because the fire department will only come by to make sure your neighbors' houses are safe.

    You mean IF my house catches on fire. I guess I will just have to take personal responsibility and be careful to prevent that from happening. Oh, the horror!

    If you get robbed, then I hope you are home, armed and a better shot than your robber, because the police won't stop to help.

    The police aren't there to help you anyway, dumb ass. If you can't personally protect your home from robbery, then it's time to reevaluate your life, weakling.

    Better yet, instead of inconveniencing us, why don't you just move to your own Ayn Rand/Libertardian paradise of Somalia, DRC, Sudan or Chad? There's no government to speak of, so you'll get everything that's coming to you.

    Religiosity is strongly and negatively correlated with IQ, and IQ is heritable.

    Except I have a 140+ IQ, and I'm religious. How do you explain that?

    In grade school I was an atheist, in the Bible Belt, when everyone else was religious.

    Nowadays it seems like everyone is an atheist.....and I'm now "religious", I suppose you could say, since I came to realize that there IS in fact a God, even though the common perception of a "bearded man in the sky" is nonsense.

    God is the Universe. God is Nature. God is each of us, the Earth we live on, the Solar System, the galaxy, everything. God does have a Will, in a sense. There is Good, and there is Evil. There is a Satan, there is a Heaven, and there is a Hell. These are all concepts which describe something that's real.

    All you have to do is read the Bible keeping in mind that every damn thing is a metaphor. These Stone Age peoples didn't understand physics, or science, or any of this stuff, but they damn sure live in the real world and they DID discover truths about the world and they way it works.

    For those of you who are convinced you're not gonna "go anywhere" when you die: bullshit. Maybe the majority of you won't amount to shit, but there are some people who will accomplish great things. There are some people who will be recognized by mankind for all of eternity for the things they said and did while on this earth. That's what it means to be in Heaven. Others will be vilified ("cast in a lake of fire" if you will, metaphorically speaking of course) for their evil. They are in Hell.

    It's not rocket science to understand. At least, that's what I say. But then again I am surrounded by a sea of morons, so is it any wonder most people aren't quick enough to grasp such a simple and undeniably true concept? I tend to understand things anywhere from 6 months to 20+ years later than most people do. Eventually the world will come around to my viewpoint on this.

    No, the reason certain things are banned is because it makes a great source of revenue for certain assholes. The explanation of "saving lives" or whatever is nothing more than a bullshit excuse used to sell it to useful idiots, such as yourself.
