    Doubtful. That lawsuit is bullshit. It brought by a con artist in a country of con artists. Any ruling on it would best be ignored.

    Yeah, that is scary. When people start agreeing with me I start to worry.

    This is the way I see it. Right now africa can't feed itself and can't cope with a modern civilization. They are simply not educated enough. I don't mean what most in the west consider basic education, reading, writing, and math. I mean basic basic, as in not to foul your own water supply and fucking over your neighbor isn't the best way to live.

    African civilization just isn't compatible with western civilization. Now the real question is what is the west going to do about it? Nothing, this isn't our call. We have to put the responsibility in the hands of those it affects, the Africans. There are voices in Africa that are saying just that. Stop giving us aid and let us deal with it. Those are the voices we need to listen too. Not some jackass in the UN or someone selling cheap ass laptops to people that barely understand the problem.

    Africa is a pit and its dragging the whole world in with it. They can't feed themselves much less build a modern society. My ideas are pretty fucked up. It basically amounts to cutting Africa off and letting nature take its course. Millions will die. But the alternative is much worse.

    What happens if we maintain the status quo? We keep shipping boat loads of food over there and medicine to combat AIDS extending the lives of people. They breed and that means more food, more medicine. There will come a time when we can't do it any more. We will run out of surplus food and medicine. When that happens the deaths will be in the hundreds of millions. People will die that should not have been born.

    Pretty fucking cold isn't it? But the cycle has to be broken now.

    Yeah, we did that once but them damn europians had to start trying to kill each other. Then there was that little incident with fucking german bastard trying to kill all the jews. He was doing a pretty damn good job of it if I remember my history. You know, it might have been a damn good thing we didn't finish that wall. They might be speaking nothing but german in britan and Japanesse in Australa.

    There is a major difference in africa an all those other places you mentioned. There people seem to listen and really care about "getting with the program." That is a very bad choice of words on my part but I can't think of anything else that fits.

    In africa though, from the ass to the nose all people seem to think about is fucking each other over and every one else. You see in china and russia when we told them that AIDS was caused by a virus and sex people listened. In africa we told them the same thing and, screamed BULLSHIT and said it was evil spirits. In africa a common way to get rid of AIDS is to fuck a child after the witchdoctor tells them too.

    In 2005 when the world showed up with food and aid to help the people from that tunsnumi, can't spell it not even going to try, it got to people that needed it. It doesn't work that way in africa does it? It goes to who ever has the most guns.

    Might as well call it The African problem. The whole place is a fucked up shit hole no matter what. I'm reading on CNN about fucked up elections in Kenyan. If its that its just something else. Might as well roll the whole fucked up mess in to one bag. Saves time and effort.

    You know what the really sad thing is? I used to give a fuck about africa. I don't any more. Fuck'em.

    If that wasn't what you where thinking then you have my apologies. But I do get tired of hearing that all of africas problems are because of something White people have done to them. Yeah, that maybe have been part of the problem but that was over 60 years ago. Now I think the last estimate was we have poured 2 Trillion dollars into africa over the last decade and nothing has changed. In fact it has gotten worse.

    We need to accept that there is no solution to the african problem and let them deal with it. We stop feeding them, giving them money, and guns pretty soon they will have to wake up. After enough of them die though. Which is the sad part but there pretty much is no other way. We've tried everything else. Once AIDS, starvation, and war kill enough of them maybe the rest will wake up and say "hey, this shit is pretty fucked up."

    Surely you are not serious. Revolutions in Africa just replace one bunch of assholes with another bunch of assholes.

    Which is exactly why revolutions won't work. The whole system is fucked. There are only two things that will work and nether of them are pretty.

    One is armed conquest. The UN sends in the troops an we take over everything south of the Sahara. We totally clean house. Then for the next hundred or so years we re-educate everyone in africa and teach them how to behave in a civil society.

    The next is just as bad. We wall up everything south of the sahara, nothing comes in; nothing goes out. Then we let the africans solve their problems in any manner they see fit. In a hundred or so years maybe they will get tired of killing each other and decided to act like humans. That, or, we'll have a nice clean continent to give back to the animals.

    Both of them are pretty stupid answers to me but I'll be damned if I can think of anything better.

    From an environmental perspective this thing is great. Pile 60 million of the fuckers on the streets in a country that already has a population and pollution problem. At this point I will bring up the countries relaxed driving laws and their tendency to over load any kind of transportation. Once this thing hits the market and if succeeds this thing will help two ways.

    First is the over all addition of smog to the country will increase the mortality rates with lung disease and other air pollution related causes.

    With 30 people riding in these fuckers there will be more fatalities in crashes.

    All these are good things for the environment because the reduce excess population. With the population reducing the need for these rolling death traps will be reduced and so will the smog.

    You sir, are a fucking moron. The first 10 amendments are called the Bill Of Rights because that is what they do. Grant specfic rights to the people and restrict the federal goverment from abridging on those rights. Those rights are graned to the people in the first amendment where Freedom of speech is spelled out in black and white.

    I never clamed it was just to protect political speech but that was one of the key factors in its creation. To protect people from speaking out against the government. Which is political speech. Other forms of speech are justly and rightly protected too.

    In the case of the Ron Paul signs they where clearly political speech on his own property. I.E. protected speech as written in The Bill Of Rights.

    Because the laws that exist (namely the constitution) don't permit such restrictions?

    And you expect this to mean anything? Right now the constitution is nothing more than a minor annoyance at best. Right now, this moment they are threatening to arrest people in Florida for displaying Ron Paul signs on their property. This is the type of speech that the constitution was written for, political speech.

    To most politicians the constitution is nothing more than a piece of paper with some high and mighty sounding writing on it. Given the chance most of them would just as soon wipe their asses with it.

    What about relitivistic effects? What if said star was massive enough to end in a super nova.
