your posts here please
ill start it off.i just heard this on the tv

GUN RELATED DEATHS per year

u.k around 60

japan around 30

america around 11000

i dont think this takes into account the amount they kill in their illegal wars against anyone they dont like or cant bribe.

give the guy a break he posted this 9 months ago and yes the UK figure should be a lot higher now, oh and Japans.

A friend of mine when he was 13 moved to America for 3 years and they came back to the UK. His whole attitude had changed, he swore all the time, he was violent, his fashion was terrible his jeans were falling off. His accent had changed, he just wasn't a very nice person anymore (the complete opposite of what he use to be - his older brother another friend hadnt changed so much), hopefully he'll change back, haven't seen him in awhile his older brother is living in our hometown again not sure where he is might be in Brimingham with his mum and stepdad.

Except he didn't actually say that it was alright, and even if he had does that detract from the rather good points he made about the negative aspects of American culture?

Best whisky as far as i'm concerned, and made from Americans.

Must be an important project to deprive you of sleep?

Agreed on your post, though that'll never happen as long as unmodified humans live; where there's authority and power, there's corruption.

I can't hate an entire country, that's stupid, as people vary etc.

I do hate a two party system that maintains the status quo for the rich and the corrupt.

I also hate a press that barely reports most world events outside of America like they don't matter.

A culture that revolves around shifting the blame all the time.

A culture that spends more money on arms than on educating it's citizens.


I realise that many of these points are also evident in this crappy country but we exert a much smaller influence on the world.

I also realise the world is never going to be a perfect place but I'd like the people in charge to have genuine good intentions rather than going about as corporate puppets and legalised thieves.
