American Patriotism Terrifies me!!

The government would run out of money before it could use them. Citizens would stop working, therefore no taxes. Besides, I would like to believe that our soldiers would stand up to our govt if SHTF scenario happened.

Pearl Jam is FTW, sir!

but dont mistake it. the average american doesnt learn about a bombing until a few days after, just like the rest of the world. I dont mean to put words in your mouth, but I think what you are trying to express is that you hate AMERICAN POLITICS, which is a sentiment almost every southern American here at ATS can agree with.

Okay then, put down the 2 litre of Strongbow! lol

I have to admit, that is some good stuff. Canned, not the 2 litre, I'm not a bum.

You really think so? How much does your country spend onj 'Black projects'? Hmmmmmmm?

I agree...a lot of bashing the "founding fathers" and twisting the meaning of their words. But those guys meant for not only us in the U.S. to be free, they meant the whole world to be free--even if they themselves were hypocrites.

The U.S has done exactly the opposite in the world that those old occultist meant it to do.

I think you should read my post again. I am not American, I am British.

It seems to me you are deliberately looking for argument with our friends across the pond. You also do not seem to understand the concept of responsible gun ownership. Nor are you fooling anyone with your beliefs that the gun laws we have in the UK are in any way beneficial. They are not. When you take guns away from law abiding citizens crime always rises. There are many examples of this. Knife crime goes up, and guns fall into the hands of the bad guys. That's the situation we have. Not good for a defenceless populace.

WE PAY TAXES. Without us paying taxes, how would they run the black projects?? Oh wait, they would just ask the Fed to print more fake money. You have me there I guess.

Regarldless of nationalism, you rfecon that something that runs ok form 300+ years then fails is of British construct?

I get the jist of your thread but seriously, you balme the UK?

haha, mine too.

I am a constitutionalist but god forbid anyone take my words serious. i always get blank stares when i mention that term. I dont like the guys in charge because they are there under false pretenses.

I dont blame the UK, I blame the UK government, and the US government for allowing this to happen. The both of them have absolutely no oversight in regards to the interests of their respective populations.

drsmooth? having trouble with the quote button, or are you a mute? have to repeat others posts. lol, jk with ya

I actually emailed my congressmen concerning the bailout. Polls showed that 85 - 90% of Americans did NOT want the bailout. Guess what, it happened. Just proving my fact that the governments of any country that chooses to bailout, rather than let the free market work itself out, does not have the populations' interest in mind.

haha, just a little trouble, and a pint or two of yuengling.

another great american beer! i think

YOun really think guns are what keep a society civilised!? Ok then, how many drive by-s were recorde in Glasgow min the last ten years??

Hmmmmmm?

Glasgow is 'civilized' because of POT. It might as well be legal there, and people are too lazy to drive anyways. lol

Yeah good reply, please add your sources.

how the heck would any american know about the local demographics of a random Scotland city without pouring over 15 minutes of wiki data?

are there coke dealers on the corners? probably not many, well, we have that here in the states. responsible gun ownership is one of the greatest rights a person can obtain.

I stayed there for a month. All the people around did was put pot in their tobacco. Which is weird. Why not just smoke it straight???
