Thanks Superchunk. I'm glad someone made this post, and I'm glad it didn't have to be me.

Agreed....this thread should definitely be locked.


I thought you might agree based on some of you previous posts. I just can't stand pure ignorance.

Er excuse me, but most shooters are 12+ games and I thought selling games to children with an age under the ESRB rating is extremely forbidden. Dumbass parents.

And another thing, how about waterpistols? Don't they turn children into killing machines either? No, because they're toys!

Concerning this I totally agree with Wojtas his first comment ;)

@Mancandy his first comment ROTFL, especially the first sentence, quote of the month :D

i didnt shake anyone's hand. if wojita spit some of his ignorant insults out to my face i would prob kick his ass not shake his hand.

no he didnt say EVERY american is dumb. but his point is that most are - which is insulting to me.

super etecoon - you think i started the hate crusade??? i dont even care about Poland , much less hate it. wojita on the other hand is throwing out sterotypes and taking shots at the US.

and tiach the airplane as we know it is American. leonardo divinci may have drew something on paper but the airplane as we know was invented and perfected by Americans.




ben kenobi posts, where is he talking about the zapper?? he just goes back and forth with the America basher like wojita has a fucking point that worth debating

first post

"It IS a stereotype though, and it's becoming increasingly popular on the internet within the past few years. Probably a Bush factor.

I'll be the first to admit our country's got problems, and sure, there's a plethora of stupid people, but I'd pull the plank out of my eye before mentioning the splinter in mine if I were you.
Our countries all have their problems, but America has been an easy target lately because of our President and foreign policy. We can take all day to point out the problems in our countries, but I'd suggest leaving it out of discussions about "stupid parents" and such. Stupid parents exist all over the globe, trust me."

2nd post

"here's plenty of messed up Americans. Just never come in contact with them, and you're fine hehe.

Seriously, if you live in a big city or college town, you can go your whole life with normal human beings...it's not that hard...some places in America really are nice. I still want to vacation in the West sometime. I'd like to visit Europe sometime...but there's so much land in my own country I've never seen."

3rd post

"Really...didn't know that hehe.
@super_etecoon...DonWii isn't really the one bringing the hate, so don't push it on him hehe.
Those facts are certainly bad, I just don't care, because almost none of it applies to me, really.
I'm not stupid, at least I hope I'm not.
I speak English and am nearly fluent in Spanish.
Ok...I eat fast food probably once a week hehe...I work and don't have time for good food...though it's McDonalds half the time and Subway the other half...
I'm in Chicago, nowhere near California thank goodness hehe.
I suppose I don't have much "culture"...unless you count Chicago culture, which I consider rich. Lots of Italian influence...lots of theater and music background...

I don't really care where I visit in the West, perhaps the Grand Canyon, or just a good place to camp I guess...I'm sure Yellowstone's still good for camping too hehe."

4th post

"My good friend just moved to Oregon a couple weeks ago...he just needed a move I guess, and his brother had a place for him picked out...

Perhaps sometime within the year I'll get my friends and we'll visit...a road trip on the way...only takes about 30 hours on a straight drive haha."

Yeah, well it sounds like to me that wajtas has fallen victim to what so many foreigners have. Brainwashed by liberal media. And his country is plagued with liberial media, much like ours. Insteading insulting us, you should be thanking us. Wait till our President gets out of office and they withdraw troops. You think the World is under attack by Muslims now. Just Wait. When Bush gets out of office were gonna be in bad shape and so will Europe. Some people say they can't wait till Bush gets out of office. But I'm telling you that it's gonna be a sad day. If you have any knowledge of what the meaning of Islam is and their goals you would understand.

You do not come even close to speaking for most Americans. You are just as ignorant as the persons you are trying to debate.

Bush is an idiot and has ruined our country. There is not such thing as a blanket 'liberal media' problem. Islam is not a religion of war you stupid !@#$!@#$%. Read the Quran you mindless sheep. The people that commit these atrocities are not following Islam. They are following the hate taught by a minority of leaders. This is no different than many and I do mean MANY Christian wars over the course of history that were to rid the world of infidels, even other Christian infidels. None of these acts are in accordance with any religion and 'Muslims' are not the enemy. Ignorance and hate are the enemy.

Our leaders are part of the problem and their desire to ensure American superiority by ensuring some of the dictators that breed this hate and ignorance remain in power. Who sales the most weapons in the world? US, Who finances Saudi Arabia, Saddam, many African dictators, etc. US. Look at Iraq. Who is attacking who. Muslims are attacking other Muslims. Sure we hear about the 20 or so US personel that die needlessly every week or so, but we do not really hear about the 100's of Muslim Iraqis that die every other day at the hands of other Iraqis. It is not a religious war. It is a war like most wars, its about control and money.

You are the reason other nations think US is stupid. You and the rest of the idiotic sheep or right wingers (mostly) that watch Fox. Fair and Balanced my ass. More like propaganda for the religious conservatives that if allowed to put in place all the controls they want would eventually make the US like Iran and Saudi Arabia. You dolt, how do you think those countries got to where they are? The Muslim world was not always like this, during the West's 'Dark Age', the Muslim world was at its peak and very much comparible to US or Western nations today. However, that has changed slowly since about the late 1800's and especially since the World Wars when Western nations made every single dictatorship that exists in the Muslim World.

/rant -- sorry. This is one thing that obviously pisses me off. At this point it might be a good idea to lock this thread as it is slowly going where it probably shouldn't.


 Thankyou for posting what i wanted to say but could neither
a) be bothered
b) express nearly as well as you could



Er, let me make one thing clear, I don't agree with Wojitas concerning the "Americans" issue, I only agree about the kids are too young to buy shooter games part ;) Saying such things, especially on a website which is dominated by our fellow, friendly American people is not a very wise thing to do ;)

I dont think that ppl from usa are more stupit then ppl from rest of the world.
But in USA they have a long history of blaming other ppl then them self.

just see that way ppl sue other ppl or firms and win, not many other places you can do that, most other lawsystems whoud give you a fine for wasting they time or get countersue and lose.

the problem is you have ppl high in the system and with big degrees and fancy titles, saying that is not you fault, it is the other ones fault..

They are often bought up and toll in schools that they way is perfect, and the churcs often also support this.

This is becouse if you make ppl think the system is perfect, they are not going to questen it, but you have to finde some way to explaning then why not all things are good, and the only way to do that without saying the system is not perfect, is to say it is the others fault.



I didn't read all this thread yet but wasn't there a backlash against light guns a few years ago (with people saying stuff similar to some of the reader comments in the first post in this thread) and that's why they're so rare now (until the Wii Zapper is released anyways)?



This thread has gone off topic and then off the off topic.

Religion is a touchy subject. Often misused and exploited. Blind fate.



dgm m'boy, you need to grow up. First you post things that the USA gave to the world (another thing that about a third of them weren't even invented by americans) then you go on saying that you'd spit on me and kick my ass. Very mature indeed.

Hate thread against America? Nah, it's rather a hate thread against people like you, the kind that i had to put up with during my stay in the US.

But i understand also that it's my fault for provoking this whole arguement. So i'll apologize. Sorry. Let's shake hands. Or maybe you'd rather spit on mine?



Deep into the darkness pearing

Long i stood there

Wondering

Fearing

Doubting. 

@Wojtas:

I agree. I think we all need to agree that judging people by their country of origin is an ignorant thing to do, and that all of our respective country's governments and people do stupid things

(Many European Countries: Banning media, Poland: Banning the word 'gay' in schools, Germany, Japan: WWII, US: the last 7 years,etc, etc, etc)

Just out of personal curiosity Woj, is there still animosity in Poland toward the Germans?
