I'm not grouping you with America it just happens that most of the fuck ups in the world are caused by them. All I said was oil and war. And your only not in Afghanistan because no one wants to be your friend and wont invite you to the party  . j/k lol.

I'm only going to respond once to this thread and leave it again only because I don't have time to keep returning.
Any country that
a) shoves it's poor under the carpet, forces them to work minimum wage jobs that they can't afford the transportation to get there while raising children on their own
b) spends all of it's money on a war that was lost before it had begun for, cause proven false before it had begun, who defied the UN every time they said that the allegations were false, and still couldn't prove them wrong
c) the president is elected unfairly, with money from the richest of the rich, who continues to be as literate as a 5 year old, with a history of running every company they ever worked for into the ground and yet is expected to then manage the nation because daddy did it,
d) forces families into poverty because of medical expenses, and the fact that access to medicine/ health is not a human right is despicable
e) censors their news so much that the stories avoid what the government is doing, propagandizes a failed attempt at war, lies about government spending, and the goes on fear mongering the society with only stories of murder so that they will buy into the latest schemes to boost the economy
f) manages to house more murders than any other country in the world without a logical reason, then continues to distribute fire arms lawlessly, enforces the death penalty after countless studies have proved it inefficient, costly, and not at all a deterrent to crime
g) forces another country to fork over 4.3billion pounds (GB) during WW2 as an incentive to assist the country from sure defeat to the Nazi Army, just so that country can become the economic leader of the world
h) the citizens of that country cannot realize how deplorable a society they are living it because of a horrible education system whose idea of world history focuses largely on American wars, who's citizens can hardly name anything outside of the United States without first specializing in that subject
It's simply disgusting.

I could visit both your countries and produce this same silly video. YES there are MORONS in the U.S., obviously there are morons in Canada and N. Ireland as well.
It's pretty pathetic to be so naive about your own countries guys (Canada's dealing w/ Cuba for example - Northern Ireland, yeah, your hands are soo clean  ) I suggest you take a look within before getting back on your high-horse.
oh yeah, i'm going to pretend to stop looking at this thread too because i'm uppity

Guys your arguing a age old argument when in fact
all the world sucks
America = in there minds they are the worlds salvation and everyone else owes them, when in reality they kill more of there own in peace and war than anyone one else ,in other words trigger happy morons with big egos and bigger guns.
and pretty much everything else dflynn said
England = we are a country that is so stuck up our own asses we forgot whats going on in the world we just follow the Americans blindly in to war we have turned in to puppets
we have a failing social security system where drug addicts and ex convicts get everything handed to them when hard working men struggle to support there families with no help what so ever.
Knife crime is at a all time high because there are so many rules the police have to follow there no fear there any more 12 year old kids will stand there arguing and abusing the law just because nothing will happen to them.
Northern Irland = This is a people that spent so much time killing each other over what faith they are ,they got any idea how idiotic it is when children of 1 faith cant walk down a road with out getting abuse just to get to school a people that put nail bombs in shopping centers on busy days when there are men woman and children going to be there yes northern irland is really cool huh
Canada = well Canada is a cool place however you are a bunch of wusses least America and England get of there asses long enough to give a crap about the rest of the world where as Canada stays out of it unless they are asked to help all they do is sit there arguing how un American they are wile they polish there guns to go kill some little animals for fun lets go hunt.
All in all i think my point is the human race is like a plague on this planet we destroy and take what we want in the name of peace ,human right and self preservation when in reality its all about money,oil land,ego.
later guys
Brian
PS why you guys take this offtopic this was a good thread and this type of stuff always makes argumants

People need to understand that America means, North America (the United States of America [U.S.], and Canada) Central America, and South America. The U.S. is made up of 50 different states, Not just California ("in there minds they are the worlds salvation"), New York ("everyone else owes them"), and Texas ("trigger happy morons with big egos and bigger guns"). While that's all you may ever see on YOUR liberal/censored news channels, there are still 48 other states that ARE like different countries comparatively (U.S. = 305 million people, Can = 33 mil ppl, and N. Ireland = 2 mil ppl). I'd say Canada is very much like Hawaii, stuck in the "make love, not war" error of the 60's, off in their own little world and only care about their surroundings. England is much like New York, superficial, focused too much on making EVERYONE feel good instead of doing what's right ("Doing what's right isn't always popular, doing what's popular isn't always right") as well as obsessed with their own high status. Northern Ireland is like, well, who the hell cares? I mean really, talk about killing yourselves. Yeah, maybe it's getting better, maybe, but I'd still say you're like California - specifically Los Angeles - with their gangs, violence, and self-killing. Raven12388 wrote: All in all i think my point is the human race is like a plague on this planet we destroy and take what we want in the name of peace ,human right and self preservation when in reality its all about money,oil land,ego. That's a very sad way to look at the world. I know, right, a realist. I'd say more pessimistic than realistic. Lucky for us all we're in free-enough countries that we can express these opinions, however limited we all may be.

Now whay make up quotes? That's nearly as retarded as being American. NI is great now  none of the sectarian shit there used to be, just a few people going around saying shit but no more sectarian killings... they were so 2006  we don't even get the excitement of driving through the riot zones around the 12th to get home

Firstly, not all people of any these places are to my description but in general my statments are true if you dont believe me talk to people from all around the world i have friends all over the plannet and i also keep a track on world news and not just from our liberal/censored news channels as you put it and if you look over your post you actually agreed with me lol
regarding guns in america im sure these statistics prove it and they are not all in texas.
CHILDREN SHOT AND KILLED
Japan =0
Great Britain =19
Germany =57
France =109
Canada =153
USA =5,285
80 people die from gun shots in america every single day.
regarding me being pessimistic i think not 1.6 million people killed worldwide in violence in 2002, so i will say again we are a disgusting race and as a whole we should be disgusted in our selvse
im not gonna post in this thread again as noone is ever going to agree wich is why the human race is always fighting and spending billions on war machines to go out and desroy eachother because we just cant all agree and get along.
laters guys
Brian

Brian, most of my discrepancies are with Johnathan (& his self proclaimed alter-ego - teabags or whatever) and Dflynn. You seem to actually have a reasonable head on your shoulders and can criticize your self/country when it's the honest truth.
The point i've been trying to make is simply that while Johnathan has been blindly spouting the typical anti-US propaganda, he and his country are guilty of all the same atrocities. Only now is he starting to open his eyes and break free of the Anti-U.S. (as much as I hate this phrase) "talking points" he undoubtedly heard from someone who's believes they know the "truth." I'm all for open and honest debate but I can't stand it when people won't admit any sort of fault of their own/country. You can't honestly solve anything when you don't honestly start it.
I'd like to know where you got your stats from, it helps me to grow and develop as a person to understand another persons point of view. Will you post them or send them PM. I'll pm you in case you really don't come back to this thread - though I doubt anyone could stay away.
We all want the same thing, truly we do, we all just have a different idea of how to get there.

anyway, since rexburg had to take all the fun out of mine and Johnathan's friendly argument;
our "liberal/censored" news channels? that makes no sense. Liberal is the complete opposite of the word you are looking for. Conservatives would censor a news channel, like the bush administration with CNN... Liberal news sources tell it like it is.
I never had to admit Canada's faults, I never said we were perfect, the stats speak for themselves. There is no rhyme or reason why the US has soo much violence but they do. And just like any single person," a country can't help others until they can help themselves..."
Which only furthers the fact that the war in Iraq isn't really helping... after all the statistical backup.
And to suggest that I'm not open minded? That's just a ridiculous assumption. Not even a generalization, just an assumption.
What you don't know about me would blow your mind...
And then going and making up fake quotes for the people that you know won't read every post just to make the rest of us look immature and stupid, it only looks bad on yourself.
anyway. since this thread is over...
"I still miss that chanel label. Probably doesn't help I'd never use the stuff...."

I got your pm I get statistics from many places search google and look around its easy to sort out the crap from the good its all just commen sence if some site says a statistic quoted from someone else then find where they quoted it from.
I have no problem with debate or knowing my countrys faults you all know my opinion on the whole human race and 1.6 million violant deaths in 1 year proves it but to most they choose to ignore the facts I am a realist and thats why I get so upset at this stuff but hey whats 1.6 million people theres another 6 billion or so spare.
