This image was great until it implied that France has more culture than us.

I bought a glass pipe for a random 16 year old once (with money he gave me, of course). I also usually give money to beggars whenever I see them.

Stealing, definitely. There was also a time when my friend and I prank called a one-man tow truck company and told him that our car broke down on an icy road thirty miles from where his store was. This was at like 2am in the middle of a blizzard in Michigan. The guy said that he normally wouldn't drive so far away so late at night, but that he didn't want anyone stuck in the middle of the snowstorm, and that he'd be there in 45 minutes. That was pretty fucking shitty.

I don't mind letting women walk around topless if they don't mind half the guys they see having raging erections. Kinda awkward, but it's all in the name of social progression!

Terrorism isn't a disease? Whoda thunk.
You don't seem to understand. A lot of Brits are going to fight in Syria and Iraq. They need to do something. I find it funny that you say "put more suspicion" when that would mean following, bugging, and monitoring that person as a suspected terrorist when they probably went over to visit family
If you seriously think increasing the monitoring of people is better than signing some paperwork and stating your reason to travel to the country, then it would seem you've done a 180 and are now in love with the NSA.
That's actually not what "put more suspicion" means at all. Also, I thought that this was a situation where anyone going to Iraq or Syria was "arrested and presumed guilty" like the OP said when I made the post you're quoting. Mr. P has already cleared that up.

It's not so much of an automatic arrest and presumption of guilt as a check on people going out there in the first place. If they are going out there with a good reason, all they have to do is state it and possibly provide evidence of their claim. This is exceptionally poor wording and possibly implementation but the reasoning behind it at least makes sense.
What? The OP made it seem much more militant than that. I can definitely agree with asking why people are traveling there in the first place, but I don't think it's necessary to arrest everyone who doesn't want to disclose that information. As long as you're not bringing home a bomb (which is incredibly easy to check), or obviously aiding terrorism, this seems like a situation where a few idiots are messing up the system for everyone.

But here's the thing...
Why would anyone go to Iraq or Syria right now? Unless you're retarded, you'd know that both of the countries are warzones. Just, why the hell would you visit either country right now?
It doesn't really matter why, first off. People should be able to go to whatever country they want to, as long as they're not doing anything illegal there. Maybe a Brit has family in one of those two countries. Maybe a Brit wants to start up humanitarian efforts to those involved in the crisis. There are many, many more reasons someone would want to travel there than to aid terrorism.

Somebody could have a cold coming in from Nigeria, or it could be Ebola. There's really no argument here, and it's only something go someone as stupid as Kinder would bring up.
And as for your "far easier methods", what do you suggest is done?
Traveling to a country that is known to have a deadly, contagious disease going around is much different than traveling to a country with intense terrorism. There is a much more likely chance that you're going to bring home a disease, than there is that you're going to bring home a bomb. You can't "catch" terrorism. As for the easier methods, I already partially laid that out in my previous post. It's as simple as putting more suspicion on people returning from Iraq and Syria, investigating them more, asking them why they went, etc. Arresting anyone who goes to a specific country is idiotic, IMO, and that's why I've always been against travel embargoes.

Lol, how? Just look at Flee's response cause that's what I would say.
Because while it's true that anyone can be a terrorist, that applies to everything. Anyone can be a serial killer. Anyone can be a rapist. That doesn't mean that we have to assume that everyone is. Should more detail and suspicion be put onto people returning from those areas? Of course. Should they be automatically arrested, and presumed to be a terrorist? No, that's idiotic. The fact of the matter is that an extremely slim percentage of Brits going to those areas are actual ISIS supporters. The vast majority aren't terrorists. And that being said, there's far easier ways to combat British terrorist defectors than this method.

"They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety." - Benjamin Franklin
The actions of a few individuals doesn't represent the whole and it's fucking scary that some group of people think they have power to tell others where they can and can't travel to. People talk about how certain things is fear mongering yet these actions is what REAL fear mongering is; it's brain washing people into thinking that somebody wanting to keep things private is automatically a suspicious terrorist. It's no different than the thinking that people who oppose the NSA are suspicious. People have a natural right to privacy and it needs to be respected
Don't compare this to disease. That's just stupid. ANYBODY can get sick bit not anybody can be a terrorist
This.

I don't even feel that stoned in my brain, but my body is somehow... numb to me.
That is really unusual...I would lay off on it for a while, maybe try another hit or so later. If it is laced, I have no idea what it's laced with. None of those effects sound similar.

Either really dank or laced. Probably the former, if you live in a halfway-decent area.

Tim Horton's was created by Tim Horton. A hockey player for the Toronto Maple Leafs. It started as a Canadian only single store and has become a staple of Canadian culture. Tim's has recently started expanding into the US.
Eh, I guess so. If by "recent" you mean ten years ago.
