American citizens today are [female dogs]. We shouldn't allow gas prices to be as high as they are and we shouldn't allow big companies to treat us the way they do.

President Bush should be tried as a traitor and should have been forced out of office a long time ago. Everyone who is established in high offices (congress, judges, etc) should be forced out and replaced with bright young men and women who actually care about the country.

Our education system is embarrassing.

Listening to rap makes you stupid and this whole 'gangsta' thing should be stomped out of existence.

There are too many lawsuits over some of the most ridiculous garbage.

People don't give children enough credit. They are vile little monsters who lie and, in my opinion, have put a lot of innocent people in prison for 'touching them.' Chris Hansen and his To Catch A Predator series is also [censored].

Opinions?

Buy a bike. It's healthier, and you're not a slave to the pump. Guess how much I've spent on gas this year. No, really, guess.

There are good schools and bad schools. People just go to the bad schools because they don't care about their future. My schools were never great, but that didn't stop me from getting into a good (read: great, in my opinion) college. You're only going to get out what you put in. If you don't study, don't expect to get anywhere in life.

Rap is not music, and don't even think about defiling it. If you want to spend your life dealing drugs, dodging cops, and never making anything of yourself, don't infect others with your obviously fatal case of stupid.

Probably the latter.

-I think that a benign dictator is what humanity needs to advance further.
-I believe that any God or gods there are must be either imperfect or believe humans to be a lesser species.
-I think Halo 3 isn't as good as everyone says it is.
-I am not a PS3 fanboy. I prefer PCs over consoles.
-I was angry for a while after Portal: Still Alive was announced.
-I am somewhat anti-America.
-I am somewhat anti-Russia.
-I am somewhat anti-China.
-Let's face it, I'm actually anti-humanity. I despise all races equally.
-I think Rap is just another form of music to be appreciated, and like all genres of music, there are plenty to sub-genres to choose from. Take what you want, ignore the rest.
-Having said that, let it be known that I hate classic rock.
-Yes, 'gangstas' are pretty damn stupid.
-I do support the war in Iraq, and am grateful to America at least doing something, even if it is cocking the bloody thing up.
-No, I do not enjoy war, unless the combatants curse loudly and then respawn in the next round.
-I would vote for Obama, but I'm not American.
-I think the French have a beautiful culture.
-I also think the French can be complete arseholes.
-I hate Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. Dumb game, dumb concept.
-All jocks, nerds, crackheads, gangsters, soccer moms, cliques, groupies, yuppies, emos, furries, porn stars, nobles, Asians, Westerners, Europeans, FOX Newscasters and and everyone within a five mile radius of them should be instantaneously hit with at least three thermonuclear devices and then run over with a truck for good measure, especially if I'm having a bad day.
-If aliens did exist, they hell as sure should have better things to do than probing my arse and scaring the [censored] out of farmers.

[Edit] Oh yeah, sorry if I'm wrong about what this thread is for.

Gas prices are based in part by the cost at which oil is sold to the company, which is getting higher. Plus, in other countries gas is way more expensive. It's 6 dollars a gallon in Amsterdam. As to the cost that gas companies sell it to us, it's a business. They want to make money, and to do so, they need to sell for more than they by.

I don't think Bush did anything maliciously, I think whatever he did, he meant to do to help the country. He just [censored] up pretty bad. As to everyone else, I should remind you that this is a democracy and we elected them.

Yes. As currently learning from it, god yes it is.

No, listening to rap doesn't make you stupid, rap just tends to attract stupid people. Gansta thing, what are you gonna do, the more you antagonize them, the more they think they're cool.

Yes. Darwinism should just be allowed to play out. Take the warning label off coffee, stating that it's hot. Take the sign off chainsaws that says "To not attempt to stop blade with hand's or genitals". We'd end up with less stupid people that way.

Children are whiny. malicious, and judgmental, but in the age that they are when molested, or not, they're too stupid to lie well enough. As to To Catch a Predator, why refute that? If you go to a little girl's house that you don't know with flowers and a pack of condoms, well it's pretty damn likely you're a child molester. And you should also note that a kid can't just throw someone in prison, they have to go through a court.

Blarg.

Oh Jesus another one of these threads...

I don't worry about gas prices as much because I ride my bike from place to place, if they're nearby. The last time I refilled my gas tank was at the end of May when the winter semester of college let out. Since then I've only used a quarter of a tank.

Bush is a prick, we all know this, and we've known this for the past seven years. We're getting a new one soon enough, so I've stopped caring.

Our students are just about as embarrassing as the system. I've one more semester of college and then I can stop caring about that too.

Rap... well sure, I could slap my dick on a synthesizer too and be a pop star.

I'm gonna sue you for that.

I love To Catch a Predator! Eeeee I get a sick satisfaction from watching well-to-do doctors' reputations go through the [censored] for chatting up 12 year old dummy accounts, XD

Patriotism is good and all... but too many of us United States citizens take it too far.

After Halo: Combat Evolved, the video game series went downhill. The novels are much better.

A certain group is a wee bit sensitive on anyone who disagrees with them. Choose yourself which group I mean, there's multiple I'm referring to anyways and I'm sure you will all find this true for at least one of them.

I feel those who think Humanity is a pox on the planet (Not those that simply hate it, there's a difference in my eyes) are ignorant of the rest of the natural world's inhabitants and how the world would be if THEY were as advanced as us.

The world is going to [censored] because sometimes people don't eat breakfast in the morning!

That's why we have a free market. Unfortunately, too many people have become dependant on the stuff, and therefore, oil speculations have run the price up. Until the faction of the population that is willing to pay any price quits, it will keep doing so. Some farmers around here have gone back to mule power. No, I'm not joking.

President Bush should be tried as a traitor and should have been forced out of office a long time ago. Everyone who is established in high offices (congress, judges, etc) should be forced out and replaced with bright young men and women who actually care about the country.

President Bush is a scapegoat. He's been a better president than most democratic presidents than I can think of, including the laughingstock Clinton. As much guff as Fox takes for being aconservative reporting agency, the big networks, including CNN, do their dead level best to be liberal, and that means inaccurate (spun) news.

I wish I could remember where I read this, but we can thank the major reporting agencies for pulling in Al Quida and other extremists to Iraq. They wanted to be part of the "Great American Defeat" they were watching on the news.

I have very little love for the hmmm, extreme liberals, just as I have little love for the extreme conservatives, but I get very tired of people blaming one person for the failings of many. Bush stepped up, when nobody else could or would, and the man got CRUCIFIED for it. If you want to play the blame game, take a look at congress. I'll even help ya dog it.


Our education system is embarrassing.
Yes, as long as uninformed politicos make the rules, it will be. Leave education to the educators, and allow us to discipline students like they need to be disciplined.

Students, and parents, that care, will ensure they are educated, everyone else,....well, you can lead a horse to water....


Listening to rap makes you stupid and this whole 'gangsta' thing should be stomped out of existence.

Backwards: stupid people listen to "gansta rap"...if they were smart, they'd see it for what it was in the first place.

There are too many lawsuits over some of the most ridiculous garbage.
agreed

I was a victim of incest, so I have mixed feelings on this one. Molesters are real, the damage is real, but is ALL OF IT real? I dunno. Can children be vile little monsters, absolutely. I know first hand from schoolground bullies (don't get me started), but, when a three year old knows concepts and words s/he has no business knowing, SOMETHING sure as shooting has happened, and some parents need to investigate (or be investigated).
Opinions?

Forgot one:

Many parents and other persons need to stop pinning actions on the media and man-up to take the blame themselves.

"My son with cannibalistic tendencies and known for homicidal thoughts murdered a little girl... better blame Kingdom of Loathing."

"School shooting, caused by listening to too much Rammstein."

"My child was buried head-first in the sand by his friends while under my watch [while I was not being held against my will] and they died, best blame it on Naruto."
