Q u o t e:
Oh yes I realize they were attempting to develop motive. Something that usually happens when a CRIME has occurred. You know, formally charged and all that. We have a guy dropping an Ipod in the toilet and immediately notifying authorities.

Yep, DEFINITELY no experience in how law enforcement works! Haha.. ("Haha" because LOL just looks... unintelligent. But then Haha looks too condescending.. I dunno.)


Q u o t e:
Also, I would call a band that initiates the overthrow of a government and implements a whole new government as pretty liberal. At least I'm sure the English thought of them as liberals.

Please re-read what I just wrote. "Liberal" is relative. SURE, you might have called them liberal in comparison to others then, but NOT in comparison to conservatives today. History's on my side here - watch the History channel - there was a program that stated exactly that very recently, and several textbooks and papers stating the same.


Q u o t e:
These days, any time a "conservative" type states no civil liberties are in danger in our current political environment, whomever argues with them is instantly labelled either:
1. Unpatriotic.
2. A left wing liberal.

You know, I hear more people complain about being called "Unpatriotic" than I hear people CALLING them unpatriotic. :P


Q u o t e:
Although with the definition of Liberal, I would be happy to call myself one (the Republican party it responsible for turning it into a "bad word"):
"Favoring proposals for reform, open to new ideas for progress, and tolerant of the ideas and behavior of others; broad-minded."

Liberal has become a word of relativity - that flat definition isn't what liberals themselves use when they say things like "ultra-liberal" (yes, moderate Democrats have accused their opponents of being just that). Using the other definition, it can be said with certainty that Republicans want to spread "liberalism and democracy" - they've said as much before.

Q u o t e:
You said,
The vast majority of you are so uninformed...

I don't care what your political affiliations are... are you seriously going to contend that the vast majority of people AREN'T uninformed?

Edit: And let's put it in context and give the thing more visiblity -
"The vast majority of you are so uninformed - THAT is what's really scary, not some personal questions, a five hour wait, and an innocent man properly labeled as innocent at the end of the day!"

Edit2: In further context, the "THAT" is referring to all the people thinking that the "right" to not be asked personal questions or wait five hours is more important than thoroughly handling potential terror plots. (The authorities are not psychic; it would be stupid to just believe that "Stupid" is telling the truth.)

And with that, I've really got to go. I don't mean to run out and not let you get your two cents in or whatever - I do need to leave. Have fun! And don't let political differences kill your gaming! :)

Stupid always delivers! Well written and funny, though glad you came out O.K.

I am pretty sure I would not have spoken up to them...
I do know they have more draconian rules about broadcasting things they can deem inappropriate, but I have no ide about speech.

Hopefully that made sense.
