lol, I'd love to know where you get that. I have been all over Europe and I would say that there are positives and negatives to each country. Stop the hyperbole.

What's funny is that if I remember correctly, manowar821 is a spoiled little rich kid from a rich suburb of Minneapolis, living with mommy and daddy. Don't be too hard on him, it's a lot of work trying to maintain the proper amount of angst in that kind of environment. 😉

lol, having been raised in small town north of Minneapolis I can assuredly say that MN, in general, is nowhere near a "POS" place, even compared to other first world nations. Heck, when my German friends come over they are amazed at what we have.

Yeah, we wouldn't want to disturb his emo music either.

That's right, I forgot you used to live here. Well surely you know Minnetonka, which is where I'm pretty sure he's from. Not exactly the ghetto. 😀

When you can't smoke in a BAR...
When your company can be fined for having a handrail mounted 2" too high...

And there's the problem. Everyone is concerned about what the other guy is doing, but they couldn't care less about the ways they are hurting freedom in this country. If I hear one more conservative bitch about how oppressed Christians are, while at the same time arguing against the 4th amendment, I'm going to have to hit someone in the face. And that goes equally for liberals as well, although I think we are far less annoying about it.

I did neither...

And I totally disagree with your last statement. 😛

I'm not talking about you in particular or those particular issues, I'm talking about this general silliness where people ignore what conservative are doing but get their panties in a world class bunch over what liberals are doing (and the other way around, too). And while I won't put words in your mouth, I can't help but notice how you object to rules about handrail height but not secret prisons.

That's not putting words in my mouth? :laugh:

I didn't say anything about the subjects in the OP one way or the other... I just pointed out that the original list left out a few important warning signs.

lol, see, that's PCS' way of fighting, if you can't beat an argument, just call them an idiot. I do the same, but I also have sound analysis, not to mention I am not a hypocrite like him, pretending like I am perfect and never call people names. He uses it to attack you, but then does it himself! PCS has nothing to even back him up.

It's quite funny actually, you'd think he'd stop being so self deceptive.

Ohh well, at least I shut his other thread down pretty handily.

I don't know..... Seems to me you wasted a lot of brainpower over-analyzing a situation. You need to look at things in context. He was talking to CADsortaGUY. He didn't just run out of mental ammunition and resort to name calling, you dunce. 😉 He experienced the same flash of comprehension most all of us do with Cad. It's called an 'Ah Ha' and he verbalized it. Talking to Cad is like punching a smoo.

I know, quite well, who that was addressed to. I just find it amusing that he is such a hypocrite while claiming to be the one taking the high road. Talking to PCS, or any RonPaulBot, which results in the same reaction. I'm just not a hypocrite about it.

Is this baseless attack of character supposed to prove something? Because it's not working. Ohhh wait, I get it! You're pretending to mimic the pricks you voted into office that are supposed to represent us in the government. Good one, you hit the nail on the head. :cookie:

By the way, I'm from Idaho, in all seriousness.

I don't live with my parents, I'm not from a suburb, and I've never listened to "emo/wristsCRAWWLINGINMAAHSKINNNN" music, so I don't know exactly where you get any of that from.

In fact, for all you know, I could be from NY state, or Hawaii. Why the hell would I put anything regarding the truth on the internet, on the subject of location and other personal information? By the way, I'm actually from Texas.

The only thing you two have accomplished here is making yourselves look like asses. I'm not sorry that you're all "BAWWW" and butt-hurt over my insulting your precious country, because if everyone just bent over and accepted the despot-dong like you guys, we'd all be (not) living like the Jews in nazi-Germany. By the way, I'm actually from California.

... Just kidding, I'm actually from Washington. I'm super serious this time.

Yeah, that's it, we just are sheep. Sorry sparky, but I have seen other first world and even second world countries and despite our problems, we are and will remain ahead of them for quite some time.

As far as us accepting the status quo, funny you should say that since I am far from one of those, if you ever bothered to read my posts.

Do you have a personal issue with me to where you must talk to others about it? Maybe you should seek professional help? IDK, maybe you just can't help yourself. In any case, try to find something more constructive 🙂

In all honesty, the quote tree just looked like a bunch of whining about how I had attacked the idea that quality of life in the USA is somehow better than other places. It is anything but. You don't even need to look past the health-care industry to know that we're failing to provide an honest playing field for people to succeed, but you can, and it gets much worse.

I actually don't think that any place is safe from these kind of monsters, though, just look at the pig-dog that was elected in France. He's trying to take away a health-care system that works wonders. Why? For the profit of a few. And that's just one man, we've got a whole battalion of assholes in the US government, and many more special interest pricks waiting for their cut of the profit. This is not economic and social growth, it is elitism.

That is the type of person who runs the USA, the money grubbing little shit who couldn't care less about anyone else but themselves.

I'm not even going to get into judging your character, even though you're begging for it. Take your mental-masturbatory partisan fight elsewhere, I'm not going to entertain you.

No personal issue, I just find it amusing that you denegrate me for doing one thing, then you do the same in a different thread. Talk about being a hypocrite. Meh, professional help? What's a shrink going to tell somebody who has half of a psych masters done while he was doing undergrad classes?

I can help myself, since I haven't really done too much in other threads, just found this one amusing. It's pretty constructive IMHO.

Aer you embarassed that you've been caught? Can't stand that you, somebody who tries to attack the messenger and not the message, got caught with your hand in the cookie jar?

Ohh, and BTW, your friends over at RPF still can't figure this activation thing out, I even emailed the admin and they are quite confuzzeld. Big surprise!

My "guns" can bring an M1 Abrams to a grinding hault. So unless they're going to nuke us, I think our guns make a lot of difference. That's why they keep trying to take them away.

When/IF it hits the fan I am coming to your house.

I'll bring beer, whiskey and ammo.

Evidently you didn't understand what moonbeam pointed out to you. Secondly, if you have those credentials, I would be surprised.

Ego strikes again.

Ive been caught? ROFL

Your problem (as I have said before) isn't your knowledge, but your delivery. Work on that.

Ohh, and BTW, your friends over at RPF still can't figure this activation thing out, I even emailed the admin and they are quite confuzzeld. Big surprise!

Yeah big surprise indeed! lol When you get signed up and can post, send me a message, I'll be there with bells on 😉

Don't you ever get tired of talking about your guns?

They have twelve step programs for you now.

Look up incredulity, and then apathy, and then ponder why the videos are being posted and no one care and why it would work in the current scheme of things. What can these people that are posting these information possibly gain? Your money? Your trust? Your life? And for what?

Weight the two scenarios, the "nut case conspiracy loonies" and what's being portrayed as the "alarming truth". Now, if one of those are true, then who stands to gain most from it, and for what? Just take a moment to think. Let's say that the "nut jobs" are wrong, what do you lose? What if they're right? What will YOU lose? It's a very simple concept.

Everything that's posted for you to see (thanks to this wonderful "internet" that a lot of parties of interests are trying so hard to control), a lot of people will simply brush it off as "tin foil conspiracy nuts" and those who are trying are ridiculed... What will make you see? When? And what can you do then when it's too late? Just think of the possibilities for a moment.

A little fear will never hurt anyone, it's actually healthy sometimes.
Look up "paranoia" "partisan" and "out of touch with reality," and they may shed some light on why people post those kinds of videos.

Sure, the US could become a fascist state. Anything is possible. However, the slide towards fascism is a long one from where we are and realistically we are nowhere close to becoming a fascist state. If you want to know what moivates people to post videos like that, it's the same sort of attitude that claimed we were going socialist under Clinton or those who claim our downfall will arise from becoming too liberal and too permissive of a society. I don't buy that bullshit either. Nor, I'd be willing to wager, do you. Fascism is nothing like the correlative parallels that the video attempts to present in 1/2 second flashing snippets like some lame MTV video. And as long as you can view such videos freely we haven't even begun the slide towards such a state. They'll be the first to go and that will be a true sign. When such videos are banned, or discussion forums like this are shut down, then I'll show concern. Till then the claim is pure fantasy.

Tell you what, you just keep hoping for YOUR sake and mine that "paranoia, out of touch, conspiracy loonies" like me are forever wrong. I sincerely do hope that I will remain a "lunatic conspiracy nut job", myself and every other "nut jobs" out there. Do you know anything about FEMA camps? There are roughly 800 of them out there. Model our military doctrine and world military action after that of some other World War II era regime and see how different it is (then add those FEMA camps in the picture), and you'll get the idea. Eventually, it'll all come together, but of course you'll be well entrenched in the "mainstream party line" by then wouldn't you...

I'm not just talking about THIS particular video either, it was meant to be a joke. Are you really that shallow? Just keep watching TVs, they'll tell you everything you need to know, all else that's being disseminated via the internet are just whacko's work.
 
Media ownership concentration is the biggest and most obvious indicator. This was something that the FCC was, at one time, supposed to guard against.

Disregard of the Constitution, for whatever reason, is another. Wonder what ever happened to the lawsuit against Bush Sr. for deploying Marines in California?

Corruption of the court system is certainly another.

Really no need to argue or name call. It s all right before our eyes. Just like it was in Germany.

🙁

Don't see it changing anytime soon either.

Of course you don't. I can't imagine you see much with your head up Bush's ass. Maybe a few pieces of corn.



Ya know about the only thing I'm 100% sure on is that hardcore conservatives are going to freak you out with "zomg Jesus and terrorists" and liberals will freak you out with "zomg Global Warming and fascism!"

The fact that conservatives push their religion on you while bitching about terrorists while liberals push political correctness anti-free speech bullshit while bitching about fascism is really just the icing on the cake.


Its really just a matter of which sides fear mongering you prefer I suppose.

If fascism comes to America, it won't be from just one party.

hehe... "When Facism comes to America, it will be waving a flag and carrying a bible"...

Yeah, there are two "fear mongering" sides :roll: except one of those you won't lose much. Hey, you may even save or gain something.

The plans may be laid out by the Republicans, but they won't find resistance from the Democrats. Nor the majority of the American Sheeple.

Look at the war in Iraq, the creation of the DHS, and the Patriot Act. Ideas from one party, no resistance from the other.

For now....
Don't see it changing anytime soon either.

Of course you don't. I can't imagine you see much with your head up Bush's ass. Maybe a few pieces of corn.



Ya know about the only thing I'm 100% sure on is that hardcore conservatives are going to freak you out with "zomg Jesus and terrorists" and liberals will freak you out with "zomg Global Warming and fascism!"

The fact that conservatives push their religion on you while bitching about terrorists while liberals push political correctness anti-free speech bullshit while bitching about fascism is really just the icing on the cake.


Its really just a matter of which sides fear mongering you prefer I suppose.


If fascism comes to America, it won't be from just one party.

hehe... "When Facism comes to America, it will be waving a flag and carrying a bible"...

Yeah, there are two "fear mongering" sides :roll: except one of those you won't lose much. Hey, you may even save or gain something.


The plans may be laid out by the Republicans, but they won't find resistance from the Democrats. Nor the majority of the American Sheeple.

Look at the war in Iraq, the creation of the DHS, and the Patriot Act. Ideas from one party, no resistance from the other.

Nevermind...

😀. I don't know how much original thought is required of a thread like this. I think the above is pretty funny, and pretty true. We're going directly in the crapper.

As long as we can keep our guns to defend ourselves from government, things will work out. Sure glad there hasn't been any effort to control guns in this country.

good point!!

No it isn't a good point. We have every opportunity to prevent this via non-violent means. Through better voting, protest, etc. Why make our children create change via guns and IED's when we can make change with poster boards and megaphones?
