I absolutely hate to break this to you, but here in the USA you are pwned by your government. Give it a few years and the USA will be a totally policed state. Infact, it already is. Remember that time in Phila where people dared protest the government. How many were shot and killed again?
Did you not see the patriot act either? ROFL. Freedom my ass. Your news is censored to shit by your government because they do not want you to see what is really going on in the world. I kinda laughed at Obama's speech last night how he pointed out that the Iraq war is costing each working american citizen $100 a month in the inflation it has caused.
What are the USA over there for again? oh thats right, nothing lol.
Try being a legal alien here, you get your fucking life taken from you. Had your fingerprints taken here yet? I have. Ive also had my fucking DNA taken and all kinds of other shit. I actually began to feel rather raped by the shit I had to do to become a legal alien here, I would have been better off illegal, at least that way uncle sam wouldnt have crawled up my ass.
OldSchoolFool wrote:Really? I don't see more cameras than citizens like UK..
That is a way to keep out cities clean of violence and vandalism. For no other reason. IE - if youre not doing anything wrong then you have fuck all to worry about. Simple really. If you are referring to speed cameras? GOOD. People that drive over the set legal limit deserve to be punished.
When I was growing up my friend Kelly was killed whilst standing at a bus stop, dude was racing his friend and lost control of his car.

So you dont understand why that is happening? Its called the USE mate, united states of europe. Together we will be the most powerful unstoppable nation on the earth. Personally none of that bothers me tbh, stronger in solidarity and all that.
OldSchoolFool wrote:I don't see trash inspectors handing out tickets for not recycling like UK
Then you have never been there. Alot of our trash sorting is done for us. LOL why would someone want to dig through everything and sort it all for someone to make money from? as far as Im concered Ive already paid for my can of soda or bottle of coke, Im not fucking handing it to someone all perfect and sorted for them to make more money from me, fuck em. Anyways, there are parts of the UK where you have to do so, I wouldnt live there.
OldSchoolFool wrote:I don't see speed cameras on every corner ticketing you for going 2mph over the limit (this one is coming soonest), like UK.
Have you ever looked into how many people die on the roads in the USA each year? ever wondered why? Its because they are driving too fast, too close. Your driving tests are a insult to one's intelligence. I had some crusty old dude ask me to drive around a parking lot once, go to a stop sign, stop, turn around and go back. Then I was let loose in a Taurus 3.8l V6. And they wonder why they leave smashed up cars people have died in on street corners here?
Cameras are a good thing, those breaking the law deserve to be punished.
OldSchoolFool wrote:I don't see complete gun control, like UK. (we got our ideas about arming citizens from them BTW, back in tha day...).
No and you don't see crack heads blowing one anothers heads off in the UK, armed street gangs and gun related crime. Oh and people having their cars forcibly taken from them by a crackhead. The word carjack doesnt exist over there.
OldSchoolFool wrote:I don't see TV inspectors riding about in black vans to sense what you are watching and whether or not you paid the TV tax.
It's not TV tax it's a TV license to watch channels with no adverts, at all. Unlike here where you get 5 ads during a 20 minute episode of fucking south park that ends up taking up 35 minutes of your time.
It's one of our laws, like it or lump it. Believe me there are fucking hundreds or even thousands of hypocritical laws over here I could sit here and rub in your face. And believe me, whilst I have nothing against America myself (I love the country, some of the people and the way of life) the USA is FAR WORSE than the UK with forced law, censorship and governmental brainwash.

You probably could, but grab a toilet roll to wipe the scat off your lip.
OldSchoolFool wrote:Our British cousins have given up quite a bit of freedom to their government class of rulers. Why, I don't know them well enough but this baffles me. 1984, the book, was not meant to be an instruction manual. Ydnap can attest to the "why" as he seems inclined to have the government tax gas in USA another $5 a gallon to teach us a lesson about what to drive. ..
LOL I fucking love the way you Americans seem to be brainwashed by the word freedom. You dont know what it means. You dont know what freedom of speech means (trust me every business I have ever worked in would fire you in a fucking second for stating your opinion) and you are all slaves to your government.
As for teaching you a lesson? LOL youre being taught it already, mate. Wondered why the dollar aint worth shit anymore? Itll continue to fall too, until you are forced to live responsibly and get over the need to feel like you have a big willy.
Seen how many people drive SUVS? and how many do any sporting in them? ROFL more like fucking drive to wawa and get a cup of coffee.
Dodge just got rid of the neon, one of their very few small and popular cars, for what? a small SUV. LOL.
In the Uk we get taxed per vehicle size, fucking right too, if you want to pretend to have a large dick you should fucking pay for it.
Mark my words, you will learn. Gas and oil are Finite products. They dont last forever. So, sadly the more you use the more expensive it becomes. If the USA used some sense and drove smaller cars it would be alot cheaper and youd go alot further with what you have, but nah, fuck that doesnt matter does it? just keep spunking it down the drain, pretending global warming is a figment of some scientists imagination and shouting out FREEDOM.
OldSchoolFool wrote:Why do people want to give governments their power? Probably to take responsibility off of themselves, as our founders knew and wrote a little thing called the Constitution (and Bill of Rights) to ensure we wouldn't. A citizenry that governs itself will reach much higher on the human scale of potential within the individual. 200+ years of history bear this out. So why throw that away now? ..
To take responsibility from themselves? so are you prepared to take responsibility for a war that was totally uncalled for and unjust and the deaths of thousands of innocent Iraqis?
Do you think about that and lose sleep over it?
Or, like the average brit do you realise there is FUCK ALL you can do about it and just go with the flow?
Politicians suck balls, how you can sit here and talk like that when that fucking CUNTRAG GWB is still in office after what hes done is beyond me !
At least we got up and hoyed cuntface blair out on his ass, and we didnt need a constitution for that.
What have the people who totally disagree with the war been able to do? voice their opinions? wooow. Thatll sure stop more innocent Iraqis and americans dying wont it?
OldSchoolFool wrote:I do agree that the sentiment is here, things like banning transfats (what ever that is) in NYC, and a whole host of other bans and nanny state ideas. I prefer to remind people that capitalism/democracy tends to be better than socialist/totalitarian dictatorship. Every time. The only problem is we, like the UK, are more and more thinking of our elected officials as something other than temporary workers.
As I said above, your country is already a policed state, and itll only continue to worsen. All theyll keep doing is bringing up the word freedom, pulling wool over the american peoples eyes and continue to take away their rights.
Just watch.[/b]
