Before I say this I want remind everyone concerned that I like America and Americans BUT........

I do not like the government (Bush). I do not like the system either nor the CIA neither. They also control Britain and Australia and I despise that. We (they) are free countries and do not like being run by a smug over-bearing, war-mongering git like Bush.

hmmm well i wouldnt agree with that at all, i dont really care much for politics, but would you expand upon the Bush controlling Australia bit, even if that was the case i would consider that a weakness with OUR leaders, not a fault of theirs...

That's what's great about America though too. They can burn the flag, but they also have to take the responsibilty and accept that people will find it offensive. That people will be outraged that they would be burning the symbol of the country that gives them that right.

yes i remember reading about a Marilyn Manson concert where the owner of the venue said if you burn the flag again tonight you will be kicked out blah blah blah to Mansons testiment he kept on burnin' WOOOOO!!!
yeah thats America's best thing, Marilyn Manson closely followed by there movies...

so instead, shoot an eagle, no one will know, unless you do it at a public event. then when you have enough, mail one to every patriotic american like JD. just dont put a return address, or shoot one at a public event

You would be arrested - the bald eagle is a threatened species. I think it was recently taken off the endangered species list. We have a pair of bald eagles in Princeton. They seem to have come here during the fall, hopefully they will have chicks. The area is being patrolled and they aren't releasing the location of their nesting place.

By the way - if someone killed an innocent bird to make an anti-American statement - they would be truly sick and twisted.

killing any innocent animal for no reason is sick and twisted. like traditional fox hunts

It depends if the fox is actually being killed and if it's a nuisance to the area I suppose. No one complains about killing a rat. But this isn't about fox hunting - this is about why you love the United States.

fine fine fine, i like the states because PJ isnt from there , that, and we dont need an army because of them, instead we can focus on making better beer

If the American government is running Britain... then why is the American dollar worth less than the pound? Your statement doesn't really make sense. If the American government were running your country... then I'd like to have the royals put off the dole as our first act of controling your country.

I agree. (Don't listen to JD, he's just out of his mind. )

This thread is NOT going to be discussing fox hunting or bringing in anything that incourages people to complain about the US. There are plenty of threads already where people are bitching about US.

This thread is also not to take potshots at Britain or any other country.

Don't worry! You've got the whole of the we hate Britain thread to do that in!

Plus actually if Mr. Bush had control over Britain wouldn't Mr. Blair be forced to go along instead of choosing too... but not going there.
Plus lay off fox hunting. It's not like with hunting in the US, as Eddie Izzard says: 'It's about happiness. Except you take a f*** off gun. Here happiness! I'm gonna shot me some f***in happiness!' I paraphrase...
But what do you think foreign businessmen want to see on their hotel walls? Fox hunting and the Queen or modern art from 'Cool Britianna'. I refer you to Boris Johnson in the Spectator... most weeks' editions.

Ah. You know I was pulling your leg about that anyway. I've already said, I don't hate Britain.

I would say that there would be many changes to benefit the US if the statement were true (re: US controls Britain). And the US dollar would overtake the pound in a heartbeat.

There's a fox hunting thread here that I started if you want to discuss fox hunting. I'm for banning it, as you've observed.
