President of the United Federation of Planets Posts: 1,186 Group: President Member #1 Joined: January 10, 2004	Andy Rooney said on "60 Minutes" a few weeks back: I don't think being a minority makes you a victim of anything except numbers. The only things I can think of that are truly discriminatory are things like the United Negro College Fund, Jet Magazine, Black Entertainment Television, and Miss Black America. Try to have things like the United Caucasian College Fund, Cloud Magazine, White Entertainment Television, or Miss White America; and see what happens... Jesse Jackson will be knocking down your door. Guns do not make you a killer. I think killing makes you a killer. You can kill someone with a baseball bat or a car, but no one is trying to ban you from driving to the ball game. I believe they are called the Boy Scouts for a reason, that is why there are no girls allowed. Girls belong in the Girl Scouts! ARE YOU LISTENING MARTHA BURKE? I have the right "NOT" to be tolerant of others because they are different, weird, or tick me off. When 70% of the people who get arrested are black, in cities where 70% of the population is black, that is not racial profiling, it is the Law of Probability. I believe that if you are selling me a milkshake, a pack of cigarettes, a newspaper or a hotel room, you must do it in English! As a matter of fact, if you want to be an American citizen, you should have to speak English! My father and grandfather didn't die in vain so you can leave the countries you were born in to come over and disrespect ours. I think the police should have every right to shoot your sorry ass if you threaten them after they tell you to stop. If you can't understand the word "freeze" or "stop" in English, see the above lines. I don't think just because you were not born in this country, you are qualified for any special loan programs, government sponsored bank loans or tax breaks, etc., so you can open a hotel, coffee shop, trinket store, or any other business. We did not go to the aid of certain foreign countries and risk our lives in wars to defend their freedoms, so that decades later they could come over here and tell us ! our constitution is a living document; and open to their interpretations. I don't hate the rich. I don't pity the poor. I know pro wrestling is fake, but so are movies and television. That doesn't stop you from watching them. I think Bill Gates has every right to keep every penny he made and continue to make more. If it ticks you off, go and invent the next operating system that's better, and put your name on the building. It doesn't take a whole village to raise a child right, but it does take a parent to stand up to the kid; and smack their little behinds when necessary, and say "NO!" I think tattoos and piercing are fine if you want them, but please don't pretend they are a political statement. And, please, stay home until that new lip ring heals. I don't want to look at your ugly infected mouth as you serve me French fries! I am sick of "Political Correctness." I know a lot of black people, and not a single one of them was born in Africa; so how can they be "African-Americans"? Besides, Africa is a continent. I don't go around saying I am a European-American because my great, great, great, great, great, great grandfather was from Europe. I am proud to be from America and nowhere else. MY OPINION OF THIS. I Pretty much agree with it. It makes a hell of alot of sense.

Whe nyou come the the United Staes of America the chosen language of Chose is English and if you don't like then don't come here. I speak English and I want to understand what your saying and not have to look through a translation book to figure out that you want a cup of coffee. Also my Dad has said it to me my grandfather has said it to me and my great grandfather has said it to me. "People kill People!!!!" So wheather they do it with a gun, car, knife, Ball bat, Kendo Stick, Sword. It takes the person behind anything to make into a weapon. YOu can't tell a gun to get up and say "Kill me" etc.... THe BOY SCOUTS just means that BOY SCOUTS and GIRL SCOUTS meeans just that GIRL SCOUTS. Movies and Video Games do teach people to be violent. People teach People to be violent against one another. So don't blame the Entertainment Industry for you beating the hell out of someone. Every person in this world has the will Power to say no and walkawway from a situation. If you Choose not to then you must face the consequenses that follow. I believe in defending my country but these opther nations need to learn to take care of their own because I mean we get hit by hurricanes and other disaster and we get "NO HELP" But when a Country other than the UNited States get into a troublesome spot WE (THE USA) give a helping hand. QUit helping them and start helping the starving and homless Americans. We also need to quit sending our jobs to other nations. Hello to the BIG COMPANIES OUT THERE IF YOU CAN"T EMPLOY AMERICANS YOU NEED TO BE SHUTDOWN. SIMPLY PUT EMPLOY AT HOME FIRST THEN WORRY ABOUT GOING OVERSEES!!!!!!! I also belive that there is enough oil in this country alone to sink the middle east and our competitors the problem is we just don't want to do it. I am also tired of Political Correctness. WHO the hell made that term up anyway. According to the constituion of the Unites States of America I have a right to talk any way I damn well please. So Kiss my ASS YOU Beauracrats. AS all the rest of the stuff the Persident of this site says I agree with totally. Cheers :lol:

Everytime I search around the site looking for something new, I alway come find something that i haven't seen before, but I totally agree with. In answer to the question in the previous post, the origin of Political Correctness is in debate. Both Conservatives and Liberals have been pointed at as the origins of it. I don't know who it came from, but its clear to me that Liberals have taken ahold of it(even though they would probably deny it). A perfect example for me was 3 years ago when I had an argument with someone who said that you could only say Nuclear one way. I told her that the dictionary said I could say it both ways, and that the English Language dictates that I can say it both ways. And that is the greatest thing about English. Being able to integrate new words and new ways to say words into it without problems. I have more to say but I'm to lazy. I end by saying, as always Mr. President the words you post on this site inspire.
	Are you stuck on stupid? Become Hannitized Warning!!! I've been Hannitized
