What I find amusing amongst all this idiotic nationalist retardbabble is the assumption that the US is somehow self-sufficient.

I mean, someone politely mentioned that this would never work based on the world economy, and I can sympathize with people wanting to live in a fantasy land but:

ARE YOU THE SINGLE MOST STUPIDEST PERSON-TYPE BEING ON THE FACE OF THE EARTH?!?!

I mean, didja even THINK about this before you posted it?

You know that upper 3% or whatever that controls 90% of this nations wealth? You know, that segment YOU AREN'T A PART OF? That segment would likely be the ONLY segment that could survive something like that.

That and farmers, I guess.

Plan sounds good - but don't complain when you pay up the yinyang for everything you own because America stops outsourcing its manufacturing to developing nations. Then we can all drive GMs.

Sorry, grasshopper, this is the way America is. If you don't like it, get out.

Hope I've made my point.

Yeah. I like the "American" notion that if you don't agree with the way I think America should be you should leave America.

I mean, I know you're a complete and utter moron, Hopper, but did you really even think about that?

Well, we do kind of need the oil, at least until we develop alternatives. If people do ask for help though, we should provide some. It's just negligent I think to leave people in distress when they're asking for help.

4. If this is such an awful place:
a. Stop all immigration

I am sick of all the whining and the threats. If we are not wanted someplace, we should get the hell out of there and take all our stuff with us. If someone thinks it sucks here, leave. Take your stuff and go away.

Let us live in peace. Worship your God, your Allah, your pagan deity. Subject your people to atrocities and fight among yourselves. Make them eat dirt and love it. Build nuclear reactors that you can melt down on your own. But know that once we go, we are not coming back if you need us, and if you persist in bothering us (read that as attack us), we will reduce you to a point that the Stone Age will seem like a technological renaissance.

We don't want your oil, we don't want your women, your camels, your goats, your cheese, your wine, or anything else you have. We can make it as good or better. You keep it, and have a great life. We will do the same.

Pissed off American. No need to preach to me about xenophobia or any of that. I have been around and I am tired of the hypocracy of people who take take take then spit on you. And of people who give give give as long as it is not theirs to give up.

Out.

While you're at it, throw out the bill of rights too! And the Indians on the other line, are wondering why you're still here . . ..

Oh wait, you're already doing that if you're kicking out all the people expressing their right to free speech . . ..

Foreign policy has NOTHING TO DO WITH THE BILL OF RIGHTS. go back and read them again. NOTHING IN THE BILL OF RIGHTS SAYS WE SHOULD STAY INVOLVED WITH OTHER COUNTRIES.

You know Pennsylvania is SUCH a non-racist entity that I have to cut myself just not to move there.
???? Even if this is true, why does it matter? Do people here not discriminate enough for your tastes? If you believe that, then you haven't checked out northern central PA where there are still active Klan chapters. So either you don't know what you are talking about or you are REALLY racist and would only be happy in alabama. But, I am still confused as to why we are talking about this.
Give me a fuvcking break. He didn't say or imply anything racist. He isn't allowed to describe them? I guess you get pissy when a police officer writes your race on a ticket? Did you get pissy when you took the SAT? Do you get pissy when filling out a majority of personal information forms? What in the hell exactly is your problem?
First, I do not get pissy about race issues often. In fact, I have protested against the black caucus on campus on more than one occasion when they were getting pissy about things that weren't a big deal (like the lack of a bigger budget for the African studies department). But look at what ThisIsMatt said. We're talking about deporting people because they don't love america as much as your average redneck, and he immediately starts talking about hispanics (They obviously weren't born here and don't have as much of a right to protest as you or I, Joe 3rd generation immigrant). You could be naive and just write it off as another part of a story, but its not. Of all the details to tell about these people, he gives only hispanic women. No age info, no other personal information, just hispanic women. Why does it matter that they were hispanic? It is one of the few details he gives so clearly its important to him. But why?

I am tired of asshats saying that everyone on this board is a racist because they describe someone's race when speaking about them. Hello McFly!!! It is a part of the story... just as if you said "that lady" or "that RED car." It is idiots like you that continue to disturb and harass people because you think you are the PC Police. I hate the word Politically Correct. WTF is Politically Correct? It is pussyfooting around and trying to say something that you want to say without offending anyone who gets easily offended because they are doing the crap you are talking about and they know they are doing it, yet they don't want you to outright know they are doing it so they act offended and decide to harass you or try to have the media boil your ass in blood. Yes that was an extreme run-on sentence but I have a good feeling you can understand it if your brain will allow.

I and most of my asshat friends don't care about being PC at all. I think racist jokes are just as funny as the next guy. I recognize though that they are not true and perpetuate sterotypes. E.g. what do you call a mexican with 8 arms? I don't know, but it sure can pick lettuce. That is funny as hell, but while laughing at it I need to realize that it is only funny because of an ethnic stereotype that I should recognize as wrong and personally reject any belief in it.

Now that we have all that cleared up, let me comment on what Grasshopper had to say. I am in almost total agreement. I am tired of the US wasting money on foreign investments and then being ridiculed by the world as a whole. We should isolate and say fvck it to every country that is not our current friend. I am so sick and tired hearing about what France, Russia, Germany, or China has to say. I care about what the people of this country have to say.

I am not surprised by your position. Again, this is why democracy scares me sometimes.

You are a moron. The reference to the bill of rights is really a reference to the first ammendment. You know the one that guarantees us a right to free speech. The author of this thread wants us to kick anybody out who expresses anti-american sentiment. That really cuts against freedom of speech and hence the bill of rights. Jehovah is not saying that the bill of rights guarantees us involvement with other countries. He is saying that it guarantees freedom of speech. i can't believe you are allowed to vote.

I don't see anything in the first post that warrants a cry of 'racism', or infringing freedom of speech. It doesn't say "all white men back to America", it says "All US citizens". I think we are over-extended on our foreign policy. Throughout the world there are countries that are protesting against the US, burning US flags, assaulting our citizens, etc. while at the same time their country benefits from US handouts. We don't have to stop all imports/exports, but if we pulled out troops back to the US and halted all foreign aid I think it would be a real eye-opener to Germany, France, and some of these other countries that are so outspoken against us right now.

Only thing I disagree with Grasshopper about is the ceasing of immigration, we need to continue to be a "brain drain" to the rest of the world. But those allowed to come here should wear tracking bracelets or collars

Yeah and we can call ourselves the Providers, and the immigrants the Thralls, then in the future a starship can come to our planet and.. no, wait.

One thing I totally agree with is that if a country doesn't like us like North Korea then why are we sending them food. Fvck the government and fvck the people of that country until they decide to overthrown their government which is torturing them. If they are starving it is because the government is causing it. That is not our fault nor is it our problem. Let the people of that country handle it.

Any country that has a problem with us should see NO HELP from the USA. Why should we be giving money to the people of a country when they just resent us?

Let all the world see just how much we do. I also think we should bring our boys from from any country that doesn't support us. Why have military presence in South Korea when they resent us. Let them deal with the North Koreans. After a month there would be a war and they would be BEGGING us for help. Let them burn themselves. It isn't our problem.

IF THE WORLD WILL NOT SUPPORT THE USA WITH OUR PROBLEMS WHY DO WE HELP EVERYONE ELSE WITH THEIRS? Until the world starts giving us support, fvck'em. Every country that does support us should get a split of the AID that supposed to be going to other countries.

People say that this is not possible because of a world economy. I can't think of too much that comes out of France, Germany, or Russia that I can't live without. China is the only country that produces a lot of stuff we consume. I say we tell Taiwan they are free from China and lets give Taiwan all the support they need to feel the hole China leaves.

No you're not a racist. Its a good thing that you declared that before you made racist comments. Otherwise people might think that you are an intelligent, enlightened racist. Now we know you are just a dumb hick. Ask yourself a question: why did it matter that they were hispanic? Why even bother mentioning it? If you are such a patriot, you should be just as upset if they were white.
I have to say that so morons like yourself can get all tammied up, haha. If they were white, I would've said the same damn thing. Being in Pennsylvania, I don't think you quite realize the amount of anti-american hispanics there are in the US, and ones that like to flaunt it openly.

Oh, and what exactly did I say that was racist?
Being in California I'm not aware of a large contingent of Hispanics who are Anti American either. I am aware of a small groups of White Males who re frustrated with their lot in life that routinely blame others like Hispanics for their own shortcomings. Those are usually the Morons that will say"If you don't like it here get out"

I also live in an area with a large population of hispanics. I would say most of the ones I have come in contact where nice decent people. They were grateful to be part of this wonderful country. Of course since I was working in retail it did appear that at my store that a majority of people that were caught stealing were hispanic but that could also be attributed to the fact that the security manager was racist and anytime a hispanic or black person came in the store he watched them like a hawk.

Grouping any people into a category is dumb. The only foreigners that I have a problem with are the ones that are here illegally and abuse this country.

That was the point. Any time you look at a situation you have to examine the environment. A lot of the customer base at the retail store I worked at was hispanic and combined with a racist security manager, I noticed a lot of hispanic people being caught for shoplifting. I am sure if you go to Beverly Hills, CA you would find a major of people caught are white suburban kids :). Of course the beverly hills thing is all speculation since I have never been there in my life.
