      Last thing:
      We can say "fuck you" in television and in the radio, without getting sued.

      EOD!

        i think some of you are mixing up "freedom" with "rights"...

        real freedom is just what i posted some post backs.
        and if you want to learn more about freedom read some philosophy-books

              Still waiting for an answer to CET's question.

              The right to keep and bear arms is a biggie. I doubt you even know why it's so important.

                    I am sick of all those hate threads there has been on gfy today. US elected Bush to 4 more years and off couse it will allso influense my live. I thing US has the right to choise who you want to pres. My option does not matter, but i have a lot of friends in the US and i realy dont want to loose friends becouse of some fuck up threads on GFY, telling you are a lot better than every one else or the other way around.

                    I am here to make money and to make biz relationships, not to tell you that i perfer Kerry or Bush as your pres.

                    Denmark has allways been one of US best friends and then Clinton was in Denmark in 98 he was meet with the most warmes welcome he could get. Over 300.000 people watch him speek and over 2 mio watch it in television. Around 50% of the adult in Denmark watch and followed Clinton the 12 hours he was here.

                    Denmark allso have troops in aganistan and in Iraq. And we will be there as long as the US troops are there! Every time the US pres has ask Denmark to send troops to a country, we have send them and we will keep helping US as much as we can.

                    So what i am trying to say: US and EU need eachother. We webmasters allso need eachother, nomatter where we live and who we perfered as the next pres of the US.

                            You're wrong on this one.

                            Australia has seen a significant drop in gun violence since introducing gun control.

                                If for some stange and warped reason that you would even dream Denmark would be looking for help from the US - you are sadly very wrong.

                                The generous American redneck morons are simply that - they would not have the first clue about helping anyone. They ARE morons - a unique US inbred ingnorant load of worms in the trash.

                                While on the subject of Denmark and, simply to enlighten your dumb US brain, - Denmark contributes FAR more help to any nation than the US ever did - at a rate of $14/per head to barely $4 of US aid.

                                Excuse my ignorance for pointing out your arrogant assumptions of other nations. Tho that is nada more than I'd expect from a nation comprising 50% halfwits.

                                Don't fuck with others till your own backyard is clean of vermin.

                                BTW.. You got a bad cough??

                                  When has Denmark ever asked the USA for help?

                                      It's obvious some Americans think we are always asking for their help when in reality it is the USA that is always asking for help from other countries.

                                        Hell.. they support the whole world - least according to the TOTALLY DUMB US CITIZENS.

                                        They would not have a clue where their tax dollars go - so long as Fox tells em some tale - they are gullible enough to believe anything :-)

                                            But hell... is that not a totally damning indictment of the US that it produces so many big ignorant mouths that clearly have so little education??

                                            It is a damned embarassment to any nation.

                                            I just can't think of any country that matches this level of ignorance and arrogance.

                                            Mmm.. I'd sure like to give em the benefit of the doubt - but hell, when they are just too fucking stupid to even elect an honest leader - there is little hope.

                                            So.. from now... fuck em all until proven otherwise!

                                            They deserve no credibility....

                                              If for some stange and warped reason that you would even dream Denmark would be looking for help from the US - you are sadly very wrong.

                                              The generous American redneck morons are simply that - they would not have the first clue about helping anyone. They ARE morons - a unique US inbred ingnorant load of worms in the trash.

                                              While on the subject of Denmark and, simply to enlighten your dumb US brain, - Denmark contributes FAR more help to any nation than the US ever did - at a rate of $14/per head to barely $4 of US aid.

                                              Excuse my ignorance for pointing out your arrogant assumptions of other nations. Tho that is nada more than I'd expect from a nation comprising 50% halfwits.

                                              Don't fuck with others till your own backyard is clean of vermin.

                                                When we provide disaster relief I don't believe it's asked for. I'm pretty sure the people that respond are doing out of the goodness of their heart.

                                                              CET is a fucking DUMB US CITZEN and clearly you are the same.

                                                              What "arguement" can anyone have to the question from an idiot??

                                                              I suppose the best match is place two idiots and a room for a "discussion" - try it.

The important thing is not really the written guaranteed freedoms, rights and so on ... it's more important how a government is handling this stuff and in which direction the country is going to. At least, that would be more important to me if i want to choose where to settle down.

                                                                                From what i hear, i would not want to send my kids to public american schools (never visited one ... thats just what i heard)

                                                                                I would not want a government spending billions on war and war-industry while the people in the country trying to earn some cash to make a living

                                                                                I would want a working social/health system

                                                                                I wouldnt want liars to sit in the government

                                                                                etc...

                                                                                  Most Kerry supporters realize this. Unfortunately the majority of your country are uneducated ignorant red necks.

                                                                                    They forgot they don't have some exclusivity on this and assume they invented the idea.

An Americans inate right to keep and bear arms, barring you're not a felon, is just one of the many rights/freedoms that makes this country so great. Being permitted to speak your mind about our leaders, without being prosecuted, is another.

                                                                                      I hope name-calling makes you feel better. It didn't get Kerry where he wanted to be. I know it sucks to lose but you could at least do it gracefully like your failed parties prospect.

The only subject addressed was firearms related deaths. What about violent crime as a whole? I found it interesting that I was unable to find that simple subject matter on that website you provided, short of a report covering the hears 1977-1989. Why wouldn't they address such a simple and basic question, yet they'll address questions about violence against cab drivers?

                                                                                            I am glad that Denmark has always been willing to stand by America, but it's not just one way. Almost every single mission that the UN wants done which requires almost any level of military force, the US is nearly always doing most of the work. We usually provide well over 50% of the military force and other countries will provide 10% or less. To say we never do anything for anyone else is just conveniently remmbering certain things and forgetting others.

The only subject addressed was firearms related deaths. What about violent crime as a whole? I found it interesting that I was unable to find that simple subject matter on that website you provided, short of a report covering the hears 1977-1989. Why wouldn't they address such a simple and basic question, yet they'll address questions about violence against cab drivers?
                                                                                                    This discussion is about gun control and gun violence. That study was specifically about firearm related deaths. To the chagrin of gun activists it simply cannot be refuted that Australia has seen a drastic reduction in gun violence since 1996 when significant gun control was introduced.

                                                                                                    Pre 1996 statistics are here:

If not the government body, then private organizations. We've got tons of them that constantly travel all over the world doing just that.
