[quote=DoomedOne]Exactly, you can't try to morally obligate someone if they don't feel it themselves. Forcing a racist like channler to be friends with a black man does not work.[/quote]
Look man, I made rules about attacking people..
Hows does that statement I made make me racist?!?!
If you mean I implied that semi-educated black dude ment their whole race then you've made an unfair assumption..
This man was plain stupid, if he were white,yellow or purple for all care, I would of said the same thing. I have several black friends, and many of them don't act like their trying to imitate the bloods and the crypts.
Just because I know who I would like to be around does that make me rascist? Just because I prefer to have a white girlfriend does that make me racsist? Because I live in a nice suburban neighborhood does that make me racsist?
Trust me, I could be racsist if I wanted too. If I said anything racsist (which it could only be interpretted as rascist if your very politically correct and liberal) it was the fact that I was impling that I owe no one but God, my parent, my nation, and my friends.
Tell me doomedone, what state do you live in?
And please, so this nice little place doesn't get shut down please refrain from attacking anyone.
And while I'm at it, why not another topic...
Educational Downfall Among Minority's

No none of that makes you racist, it's that whole thing the other day with your burning crosses on peoples' lawns.
Also, I was not aware there was an educational downfall among minorities.

I will briefly mention my opinions on stated issues. Note that I skimmed over the thread searching for topics, not opinions, so apologies for any repeated arguments.
Iraq War:
For. WMDs or not, a nation has been freed. It is not America or a dictator that is holding them back now from safety and proper democracy, but their own people. Iraqis are destroying Iraqi food supplies (by killing the suppliers), future sources of wealth (oil reserves), and essential infrastructure (water pipelines, roading networks, police and hospital systems). Iraq has never been a tourist hotspot either, but any and all acts of sabotage are screwing their nation from most tourist profits they could be receiving. Bigger worry is the lack of foreign capital. Without that, their economy will never develop beyond third world, thus their people will constantly live in fear of poverty and worse. America is being rewarded with murder for saving a nation. It is commendable for Bush to stick his course and the soldiers and civilians risking their lives to help Iraqis survive another day. Including my uncle.
Murder in Suran:
Murder is murder. Unacceptable in whatever form it exhibits, no matter what religious belief or societal principle it originates. Despicable as always. The world needs to get involved. I am for non-intervention in other nations by foreign powers, but several things I find too severe to ignore. Suran and Iraq, plus Afghanistan, are unfortunately three such cases.
Pictures of Saddam:
What a stupid thing to get upset over. The guy has ordered the deaths of thousands and has, directly and indirectly, killed millions more through his policies and lack of. He needs to be humiliated. To me this is just anti-Bush or anti-American protestors getting on their high-horses and trying to make issues out of nothing.
Socialism vs. Anarchy:
Personally I don't think either could work. The very definition of anarchy seems to back this up. It is chaotic. Socialism, while great in an ideal world, is not applicable in ours. Earth is far from perfect, and socialism thus far too hard to adapt successfully over the long-term. Largely people are selfish and profit-motivated. With socialism (and various forms such as communism), free-riding behaviour invariably exists. People, upon seeing that they will get the same benefit from not working as they were while working, will shirk. With work being an inferior good, i.e. not-working is preferred to working, if the levels of benefit are the same for each, as they would be with pure socialism, then people will choose not to work yet still collect unaltered benefit. While some will see the futility of this, they are not capable, not by a long shot, of supporting the vast majority of others who do not. The economy and society would collapse. Economic ruin. Unsustainable.
I am a capitalist, but also a realist. Pure forms of either don't work, that's why we have a nice, generally balanced, mix. Doesn't always work and often I wish parts were changed, but effective overall. Therefore I'll say that no such revolution would ever occur.
White man in Africa:
That is racism. Were a black man expelled from a predominately European nation there would be massive public outcry, and I would expect no less in a case like this. Like current Zimbabwe. Unless an individual is an illegal immigrant then there is no cause to eject someone from a country. Criminals are locked up. People who don't pay taxes (and other crimes) are criminals and should be jailed or, if not a native, exported back to their native land. Expulsion on the grounds of race is more discriminatory than most other actions. And, were that behaviour by a state witnessed often, that is just cause for economic sanctions.

[quote=Channler][quote=DoomedOne]That's a little unrealistic. They don't come to America politically. They're not waiting for a debate when they cross the border. They're not trying to jsutify anything.
Also, it's not the situation over all. Where have you been? Cancun? Baha?[/quote]
Err.. well when I ment family, I ment my older brother
Me and him crossed the boarder (we just drove through) and got waisted in some nobody town.
But I did go down there with a my church missions group, and we went to some hell holes..
BTW, if the illegal aliens are so fluent in english, as you have said, why the hell can't they speak it? And why, if they bother, do they take the english courses when they know that either they will drop out, and/or walk away knowing how to say, "Hey mister tobbacco farmer! Gemme a job!"
America is home to Americans, WHY should we let NON americans live in our country? Splain to me why this doesn't make sense..[/quote]
If you feel that strongly Channler, just think about how the native americans thought when what are now supposedly 'born-and-bred'' americans came and set up camp (and killed all their buffalo  )

I see your point there, but I must say
A) the native americans were from asia, so there not native anyway.. grass is more native then any of us
 If they would of stopped fighting each other and join together, like that league that I can't rember the name of, to fight the "white man" then there would prob be a indepent Indian American Nation.
C) History is writtin by the victors, therefor, America is the american citizin's nation, not the "invading mexicans". I just firmly believe that if you want to live in america, and any other nation for that matter, you should be a legal citizin of it. Am I wrong for that idea?
BTW thank you Hammergand, seems me and Jona have another friend here
EDIT: DoomedOne, thats why I asked where you live... see here in north carolina people that actually want to make something of their lives are a minority, whether they white black etc... But a majority are the minority's that are failing academically(SP), and they get a frickin curve on their grade!!

If we all agreed in everything, this place would get pretty boring. It's nice to be able to debate our beliefs in a frinedly environment

I think we need another topic. I've been brainstorming, but haven't come up with one. Anybody?
--------------------
Power of the Shadow made human flesh,
wakened to turmoil, strife and ruin.
The Reborn One, marked and bleeding,
dances the sword in dreams and mist,
chains the Shadowsworn to his will,
from the city, lost and forsaken,
leads the spears to war once more,
breaks the spears and makes them see,
truth long hidden in the ancient dream.

I think that it should have been thought much more over, as they revealed that they never found any WOMD if I remember... :confused:[/quote]
Weapons of Mass Destruction would be easy to hide; Jordan could have easily taken some. After the searching for them, however, I doubt as to whether Saddam had the capability to make his own, but I'm certain that he had some or plans to acquire a few anyhow.
Besides, I'd consider him and his sons WMDs that have been dealt with. They have caused many deaths.

On the note of WOMD's
How come America havn't gone for NK yet? their reason for Iraq was to prevent him using his ones, why aren't they doing the same to NK?
The protester massacre
That was just plain messed up
