At least the Bold Red is correct, Dont even think about starting a argument over what I just said my simple opinion.

He just proves the average intelligence of those protesters is quite low.

Isn't it one of those things that doesn't translate exactly, kinda like "taliban", or "taleban", or the other half dozen ways it was spelled? I think Irak is uncommon, but not necessarliy wrong.

Irak and Iraq are both used here in Canada. Ossama bin Laden was also spelled Ossama ben Laden by many francophone newspapers. I'm not too sure what everyone is complaining about, I must be an idiot

You need to start your sentences with a capitol letter and end them with a period.

In that pic, I wonder why he capitalized all the letters except "i" with a word "Dictators"?

i think the correct grammar should be "USA *is* to the world" and not "USA *are* to the world" :D

Errors:
1) Irak?
2) USA "are"?
3) Dictator should not be plural.
4) "DiCTATORS"?
Any more? :D

Reminds me of a protest by teachers in NYC a while back. The school board wanted to implement merit based pay raises but the teachers wanted guaranteed increases. Of course they held a demonstration with the usual loud noise and big signs. One news editorial pointed out the disturbing number of misspelled words and bad grammar.

1) Irak?
Not common, but acceptable

2) USA "are"?
United State->s<- of America.
We often refer to the US in the plural here in Canada (eg. the 'States are going going to war, no question about it)

3) Dictator should not be plural.
see no. 2

4) "DiCTATORS"?
who cares?

Let's all grab our pitchforks and go after all the war protestors, why should they be allowed to voice their opinion?

Alright, that's not the way it looks on any map I've ever seen, but I'll take your word for it.

2) USA "are"?
United State->s<- of America.
We often refer to the US in the plural here in Canada (eg. the 'States are going going to war, no question about it)


"USA" is, IIRC, a sort of collective noun, IE: flock/herd/gaggle, etc. Would you say "That flock are about to fly away!"?


3) Dictator should not be plural.
see no. 2


....

4) "DiCTATORS"?
who cares?


Me. Got a problem?:p
