This might sound shocking, but i'm perectly fine with all that the US government has done, because i still remember 9/11. It was a big deal. And i couldn't believe that mopre wasn't being done to prevent it from happeneing,

Here's the truth. if the US government was doing what it's doing right now, back on sept. 10th 2011, then 9/11 wouldn't have happened. That's the truth.

Maybe some other horrible event we can't imagine will happen, but another 9/11 cannot happen under the current rules.

9/11 wouldn't have happened in the Bush Administration wasn't in office at the time. Bush wasn't even in office. He was on vacation. A memo stating that bin Laden was planning to attack, just sat there with no one picking up on it. The successor to Clinton was told specifically that the biggest threat to America was bin Laden, and because Clinton was a Democrat, Republicans weren't listening. They threw their entire report out with everything else.

America doesn't have a history of Fascism. You only have to look at the Red Scare. No country is safe from tyranny.

Yes look at the RED SCARE, and America is still a Free country, COmpared to anyother powerful country, who has more freedoms?? Russia? lol China? lol the EU? LOL

America is the most free major country in the world, even though we are the biggest TARGET in the world.

Denying entry to a couple of drunk wanna-be's doesn't bother me. I don't feel any less free at all.

Stories like this make me unbelievably repulsed with the world. I'll take anarchy over this police state nonsense any day.

there are plenty of places in the world you can go to if you want anarchy. WHo's stopping you from going to those places?

This is a big world, yu don't need anarchy in America, if you want anarchy go find it somewhere else. It's not in short supply.

You don't have a right to expect it here though.

I don't know of any places in the world in anarchy, so I suppose that would be what is stopping me. That and the fact that I don't believe anarchy is ideal - I said I would prefer anarchy over a police state. And don't tell me what rights I should expect - it seems from your posts that I know much more about the world than you do.

Oh yes, I'm so upset that I don't have to pay for medical treatment. Damn, if only I lived in America, then I could enjoy the doctor telling me I have the wrong insurance and I have to be turned away.

Lmao that wasn't even me Alex

And I'm not gonna get into an argument over it because I don't think Anarchism could ever work but I don't think you understand what it is, take a look at Catalonia during the Spanish Civil War if you wanna see where they came closest

I'm guessing I've made a fool of myself but I can't figure it out how.

This thread both amazes me and gives me feelings of pity in equal amounts.

I cant imagine living a life where i didnt feel free to travel the world and broaden my mind and knowledge of other cultures but equally i would feel embarrassed if i was forced to lead an insular existence cut off from the rest of the world because thats how the powers that be had painted the rest of the world to be. A threat.

What a shame.

A bit of an overreaction to ban them for a joke tweet...

anyway I thought this thread was about the TV show Friends being banned
