Guantanamo? weren't they supposed to close that thing back in 09?

Lots of war criminals are running around with nothing happening to them. George W Bush is one of them, Benjamin Netanyahu is another.

It's funny because you mention the forbidding of Jewish and non-Jewish weddings but is that something that Hitler wanted or something that the Jewish people themselves wanted? Because now that they have Israel, marriage between Jews and non-Jews is illegal there.

To add to that people are held in the world's largest open air prison, denied things like chocolate and basic building materials, denied the ability to be allowed to build schools and constantly bombed and in fear of their lives. That's how Palestinians live every day under Israeli control (which is supported by the United States).

So are you guys mass gassing people? Yes, it happens in Palestine. Is it illegal? Yes.

Do people get bulldozed to death? Yes. Starved to death? Yes.

All supported by the United States. So before going and saying Hitler this and Hitler that take a look at what your own country is doing with their military might.

Don't care..they'll do what they have to do..

more safety = less privacy. dont like it? move to Canada :2 cents:

Funny how people say things like that. Don't like it then move.

Well the thing is in a democracy you don't move if you don't like it, you vote. That's the whole idea of a democracy.

However, if YOU don't like the idea of a true democracy then maybe it is YOU who needs to leave the US.

They are already here. I own an expediting company, and last year I was making a delivery to Brooklyn in a 26 foot box truck. I was too tall to go through the Holland tunnel, so I had to route myself through Manhattan and take the Brooklyn Bridge. On 3 separate occasions while driving through Manhattan I was flagged down by NYPD on foot and told to pull over, and made to open the cargo area and show them what was inside. Of course they all had the typical NYPD dick attitudes, which made it even more fun...

I'm marking this on the calendar. I agree with you.

Welll, saying slavery was "legal" is really a red herring here Doc, sorry. A State can make ANYTHING "legal" - "Kill every firstborn son" for example - but if a "higher court" decides to side with the "law" what then? Courts can be bought and paid for, too. Look at Clarence thomas, the shit he's been doing for over twenty years. In another time a Supreme Court Justice would resign over something like this (and for far, far less) but NOW? Fuck it man. The State owns everything - the media, the courts, the Congress, everything.

What i'm saying is, THIS Supreme Court would probably rule that Slavery was still "legal". LOL So saying we have to follow laws like that is ridiculous. Just sayin'.

I'm really starting to consider moving.

The higher courts did rule it legal... slave trade was even taxed, legally, even before the Constitution and after, it's actually one of the very few 100% legal taxable items we have, it was that kind of legal, as in a right to own that 'property.'

It was legal for 10,000+ years, before it became illegal.

Wel, so was selling your daughter INTO slavery, letting 12 year olds marry, beheadings for stealing food, on and on and on. Saying something was "legal for 10,000 years" doesn't mean it's a valid/moral/ethical "law". Did you even see 'Roots'? LOL

Shit man, the taliban live like it's 1420, how they treat women and children. So that's okay? let's stone a bitch because she showed an ankle!

Alternately, if Congress passes a "law" that says Slavery is now legal, would it be?

C'mon man, ur defending Slavery. LOL

Vote Sarah Palin (D)

I'm not defending anything.... this isn't about Slavery.

We were talking about Hitler, mass murder, making a law afterward to convict him of a crime. When murder itself has never been accepted across civilized societies and was already a crime. Then Slavery came up, which isn't the same... it's illegal today because of a law, it wasn't always illegal or a crime across civilized societies, it used to be normal. Nobody is going back and convicting the ship merchant for being part of the slave trade, it wasn't illegal until after the law was created.

Anyway... going on with your post :)

It's legal to own a gun (not everywhere though), lots of people do not own a gun, others think they should be illegal, cops have been quoted as saying anyone with a gun is a criminal - registered or not. I have a feeling if Slavery was legal today, the topic would be a little hotter but the mixture of opinion and action wouldn't be any different than guns.

We should all start crossing borders in the Nude, now THAT would be a time saver ;-)

Can I smell your hand? After you touch that girl in your sig again, ofcourse..:upsidedow :pimp
