You have to be kidding me, the kid made a threat on the president's life. Even if it was a joke I don't see how that relates to gas chambers, hell the kid wasn't arrested. They merely put a mark over the quote in question. Hell I think it was a couple years back where the kid had an anti-semetic comment in the yearbook in German, and they did the exact same thing. Where is the difference? Where is the freedom lost.
I strongly suggest that you read up on what a social contract is for it appears as though you are completely ignoring the obligations, no responsibilities which have been placed on all citizens.
And calling people Nazi's is just well I can't think of a polite way to put it, but ignorant to the fullest degree.
Illegal war based on lies- "we're speading freedom"
- I don't agree with the war 100%. I still think that no one knew whether Saddam did have chemical weapons, it turns out he didn't, but if you really want to take that chance, and risk harm to your country and your allies then you can go ahead, especially when it comes to a nation which has used the weapons in the past, and has been known to kill it's own citizens on the street. Just remember people starved while Saddam shat on gold seats. The money and the food was there via the oil for food program, it was just taken advantage of by other nations such as France, Russia, and others. Saddam benifited.
Human rights violations - "they're enemy combatants"
- What? What human rights violations?
Collateral damage (killing innocent Iraqis) - "oh well"
- No one has said oh well, I have heard that people say that there might be a greater good in the war. I still believe that a greater good will in time show itself to be the case. Not as soon as with WWII, but it will reveal itself. Lastly I don't hear very many people complaining about the firebombing of cities in Germany in WWII. Were the German's life worth less to you than the lives of the Iraqis?
Flushing the Koran - "no big deal"
- Relatively speaking it isn't a big deal. I know you might roast me for this, but when it comes to the flushing of a book, it really doesn't bother me than much, it could be a bible, or whatever and I wouldn't care that much. The book it a matierial, the content is what matters, and the words trancend the pages.
Five years for passing a joint - "damn hippies deserve it!"
- People said it was strict, but no one said it was a bunch of hippies. Come on you are intentional giving drugs to someone in rehab or to a minor. If you do that you should have your ass handed to you.
