When we burn their Qurans the locals freak out and kill civilians. Maybe if we kill their civilians they'll freak out and burn their Qurans.

Don't Troll Me Bro!: The other day Santorum said that nothing changed in human existence for 2000 years, then America came along and gave us modern life. Yeah, nothing happened to improve the human condition for 2000 years... no major advancements.... right. Sad thing is people just eat that shiat up. This country is fixated on making ourselves believe that we are gods compared to the rest of civilization, no matter what lies we must tell ourselves, no matter how bad the cognitive dissonance, many of us will do/say anything to hold onto our false beliefs.

You know what really bugs me? I live and work in Las Vegas. Sometimes the tourists go off the Strip and wander around like tourist do. When they do that, they usually run into the 55% of Las Vegans who cannot read or write, and you cannot imagine my embarrassment when some dirty oily redneck starts to flaunt his 'superiority' in front of tourists from Britain or France.

I remember once working as an utility porter when I was waiting for an elevator to open so I could polish the marble flooring. It took a long time and when it finally opened, a bunch of men spilled out, some of them unconscious. Inside the elevator was this French couple holding their fists up and looking like they were having a great time. Some vacationing hillbillies had followed them into the elevator and attempted to rob them as a joke. The hillbillies then got their asses kicked. The French couple weren't big time MMA types or anything like that. They were just normal folks who worked out. But after security and the EMTs got there, and I was giving my statement, I overheard one of the hillbillies mutter, "They're French. They didn't surrender."

sillydragon: SkinnyHead: Dinki: SkinnyHead: Dinki: Great. Now Obama will have to offer another apology (which he should), and the wingnuts will roll out their Obama apologizing derp train.

Obama was warned that apologizing the way he did would have a very negative effect on morale. Bad things happen when morale is low like that.

So this is Obamas fault. Right.

Was Abu Ghraib Bush's fault?

It's too early to tell whether this is Obama's fault. I'm just saying that apologizing the way he did leads to bad morale, and bad morale can lead to things like this.

So...we shouldn't apologize for doing things, because it might lead to retards doing more things? Does someone have that deep thoughts pic handy?

globalwarmingpraiser: Public hanging by the US Military in Afghanistan would be better. It would show the people there that we refuse to allow our men and women to act in such a manner and when found to be acting in that manner they will be punished effectively, and heaped with dishonor.

When's the last time the military executed anyone? Looks like about 1955 from what I can gather. I'm no fan of the death penalty but if they're going to have it, seems to me this would be a good candidate for it.

Carth: GBB: Carth: 9beers: At least his actions can be explained by mental illness, unlike the Afghans who killed people over their book of fairy tales being burned.

Killing people over make believe sky wizards isn't a mental illness?

Not according to the 90% of the world's population that believes in a sky wizard of some sort.

Is mass delusion classified as a mental illness?


It's pretty strange how we classify 'illness'.

If we accept that 90% of the world now believes in a 'sky wizard' and, historically, that number was even higher; it would be pretty easy to make an argument that people *lacking faith* are the ones suffering from a mental illness.

Normally, it's not enough for something to be 'rare', it isn't an illness unless it puts you at some sort of disadvantage; but I'm pretty sure enough people would argue that lacking a type of religious faith would put you at a disadvantage. I have read studies that found people could tolerate higher levels of pain while saying a prayer than doing most anything else.

If it didn't happen at all. We will still pay off the Afghans, Obama will bow to them, somehow Bush will be blamed for deforesting the world and killing baby polar bears and seals ( the cute ones ). and in the Hague the UN will put Christianity on trial, ask us for more money and call us inhumane.
