Nobody should be allowed to donate anything. Money shouldn't even be a factor.
Now that's just impractical
Not at all. Money should not be a factor in who gets to hold any kind of office.
Candidates have used money to campaign since Washington's time when politicians were honest. No one would ever get to know anything about the candidates because they wouldn't have any print, tv, or radio to get word of the candidates' views. Elections would be a total clusterfuck.
I'm talking about donations.
Besides, you don't need much to travel and give speeches.
And politicians weren't honest back then.
And what do you think donations go to? It funds the entire campaign, with the most expensive being television ads. Campaigns are not affordable and back in 2012, Obama raised around $775M and spent $606M of it
That's the problem. The whole system needs to be changed in terms of campaigning and fundraising.

It's what somebody says when they're sensitive enough to be offended by you not caring.
With that logic, the person telling me I care cares very much about my opinion and clings on to my every word.

If we're going to remember 9/11 lets remember all the other tragedies.
Remember them on the day they happened.
It's funny, all of a sudden you guys remember other tragedies on 9/11. Almost as if out of spite.
and it's like America's own tragedies are the worlds tragedies. I'm Canadian. Sure it's sad but really, you guys make such a fuss over it.
Not really, no. If you don't care, don't bother with these threads.
You can't come into these threads and make fun of 9/11 and then laugh at anybody who has a problem with your disgusting jokes unless you want to be viewed as an asshole. There's nothing funny about it. Either be respectful or ignore it.
Respect
Internet
Pick one. Go to any other miscellaneous forum and I guarantee you'll get the same shit about 9/11. If you don't like disgusting jokes, you should dig a hole and bury your head in it. /:
So because there's garbage all over the internet we should be garbage too? Boy you're really something.

You all know my view on it, I don't care. I'll leave it at that.
Nobody cares. Don't waltz into a thread like you're some sort of famous person whose opinion people are dying to hear.
You clearly care since you replied.
Enjoy your holiday.
Replying is the default function of a forum. If that's all you can come up with to try and save face, I almost pity you. It's not a holiday. Keep your hatred to yourself.

Friends die, things go wrong. It's life.
Is it horrible? Yes. What you wrote is beautiful, but at the same time you're wallowing in self pity. The cat wasn't. The cat used its last bit of energy to explore and show appreciation for your care. Be glad. This should be something that teaches you that misery gets you nothing. Be like the cat. He taught you something not many humans can.

9/11 was not an inside job, folks. Bush administration ignored Mossad's warnings that AQ was going to attack America soon. They let it happen because they wanted an excuse to set up shop in the Middle East. They just didn't know it'd be that bad and weren't expecting them to use commercial flights.
Now please, show some fucking respect.

There are no heroes in Syria. Just hatred and pointless violence.
Could this not be a blanket statement for most of the North African/Middle Eastern world at this point? There's very few places that would be an exception.
Not really. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/People's_Mujahedin_of_Iran

Never have I set foot in America. Maybe one day I will, maybe not. On the bright side I live in a place that's not as much of a nuke target.
Nobody should be worried about getting nuked. It isn't going to happen. Wars just aren't fought like that anymore.
That's a naive thought
Not at all. No one's stupid enough to start a nuclear war.
There are plenty of people stupid enough to start a nuclear war. Especially when nuclear technology becomes more readily available to terrorists. Do you really think any extremist terrorist would refrain from using a nuclear weapon if given the opportunity?
I meant country. As for terrorists, I don't think they could do worse than a dirty bomb which wouldn't really count as a nuke per se. Either way, I'm talking about countries and war. Not terrorism.

>Sympathizing with someone who wants all your countrymen killed and refers to them as animals on a daily basis
So when's the next AQ party going to be hosted at your house?
There are intelligent and valid criticisms to make on America and there's the bullshit that Kiyo says. If you can't criticize and love your country at the same time, leave. If you sympathize with somebody who says things that literally make him an enemy of the state, you don't love your country. I can sympathize with an Afghani villager tired of American soldiers messing with him and his crops, but I can't sympathize with a member of the Taliban. People make a choice, and when that choice is to wish death and misery upon the country you were born in and all the people you know, you don't sympathize with that person. Ever. There is nothing any nation has done different from the next one to deserve that type of blind hatred, so there's no point trying to understand where that person is coming from.
Putting aside all the "HURR DURR MURICA IS GREAT" trolling this was one of the most reasonable posts in this thread.
What trolling? America is a great country, the best if you ask me. That's not to say it doesn't have huge problems that need addressing. A real patriot loves his country but is not blinded by his love.

>not calling zoroaster "zarathustra"
u w0t m8?
As if not even half of the people here even know who he is
Isn't Zoroastrianism well known to anyone who has even a slight interest in ancient mythologies?
Why's he in your list though?
You'd be surprised how little people know of Iran's history and think it's just some shithole in the Middle East. Ask the average person what Zoroastrianism is and they won't know.

No need for me to. At all. Not gonna waste my time going to vote in a pre-determined election.
Holy shit you're far from LA. How long is the drive?
8 hours if you pick the long, but very scenic coastal route.
5 hours if you go through the boring-as-fuck route through Central Valley.
And about 40 minutes if you're a fucktard who actually decided to waste that much money to take a plane.
Damn. So you don't get down there much, huh? How come you live all the way up there?
I know some people down there so we try to get down there once every so often. Like this coming December. And I live all the way up there cause of muh innovations (Silicon Valley). The place is only good if you're into tech stuff. If you're not into tech, the place is a complete shithole. Pretty much, take LA, and give it half the population while removing the fact that it's LA. So you're left with a gigantic boring suburbia with tons of traffic and pollution. And the downtown here is shit as well. It's a crime-infested pisshole.
Sucks. You should move down to LA.
If I was forced to remain in California, I'd probably go down to LA. Or Lake Tahoe. Anywhere but the fricking Silicon Valley.
But…. nobody's forcing me to remain in California. *wink* *wink* *nudge* *nudge*
Shoot if it was possible I'd give you my European citizenship for your American citizenship.
Already a European citizen, so no need to worry. But which European country are you a citizen of? You give up your American citizenship to avoid taxes?
You're a European citizen? I thought you weren't. I'd rather not put all my info out in the internet, sorry.
