Lightning doesn't strike twice. :rolleyes: Not exactly sure what you mean by this, but if you mean to imply that NYC would not be hit again, what you should have said is that lightning doesn't strike three times. Because the WTC was hit twice. Once...  [Read More]

http://www.cnn.com/2006/US/05/31/homeland.grants/ This is just so amazing... the incompetence is overwhelming. The DHS says that New York has no prime terrorist targets? What? It proves how Bush's cronies are in no way concerned with ACTUALLY defen...  [Read More]

Agreed. We do not resort to human shields, IEDs, or anything of the kind. Why do you think precision-bombs were invented? Because we are humane. Except when said precision-bomb is sent to a village packed with women and children to kill a couple ter...  [Read More]

Okay, so let's say just for argument's sake that ALL EVERY SINGLE ONE of the prisoners were found fighting in Afghanistan. That automatically makes them dangerous terrorists right? How can you know that? Let's say that you're a young Arab male livi...  [Read More]

The war on drugs is silly. Of course it is, but it was just an example. The so-called "War on Terror" is silly too. Would it surprise if you I told you that I'm all for legalizing most drugs? Hey, why not? Legalize ALL drugs if you ask m...  [Read More]

I don't even see why the Geneva Convention is relevant. We shouldn't use any torture-like tactics, because it's wrong. I agree with McCain on this issue; torture doesn't work. It works if you want to get what you want to hear (and piss off the entir...  [Read More]
