According to the United Nations, drug trafficking is a $400 billion per year industry, equaling 8% of the world's trade. This is greater than the exports of the automobile industry, worldwide.

Who's raping us here people? The politicians & drug dealers paying off politicians.
Its like a circle of ignorance, i assure you it is one of the downfalls of our country.
The 20th century hit the US hard, suddenly we lost site of what our freedom truly means, instead we replaced it with what a supposed morality should be.

Who in here in scared of the police? Who in here is scared of what you look at on the Internet? Who in here fears not conforming?
Its like a mass brainwashing of our country.
Its noticable if you watch tv, or look at people in line at wal-mart. It sucks, but somehow I'll continue.
Maybe its the fact that the south in the US sucks. . .I'm in Florida, but its like close to the deep south.
*sigh*

Please define what our freedom truly means, or a least your opinion.

I have no reason to be scared of the police.

There isn't anything on the internet that I look at to scare me. Now there are people with their views on the internet that make me shiver.

Conforming to what?

I'm from the south and it doesn't suck here, but this is my opinion, just as yours is too.

From my experiences on this forum i can say i encounterd a lot of ignorant American's.
(to my oppinion)

Criticism for youre country is an civilian duty if you want a good democracy.

And some people here are very ignorant...


 
I live in the true 'Deep South' Memphis,TN or just west of Memphis,TN. It doesn't suck, we all have a blast. Get together every sunday play some 6hours of full contact football w/o pads.
Go camping drink beer. Go swimming, fishing, hunting. Drive 7miles to Memphis to go Cosmic bowling and see the movies and what not. You must live in the Everglades

Well Neelax, you've made some thought provoking assessments. It' good to see that you're awake.

In reference to your drug issue, you're right there's no way that such a high volume of drugs could get into the country if people didn't turn the other cheek, so to speak.

As far as the freedom/morality issue...I agree that things are pretty phucked up. But, the one thing that I keep coming back to, is the fact that (and I'm not degrading any other nation, so don't even start), having been to South America, Asia & Europe, we (in the US) have things better than any place else (overall). Granted things aren't perfect, but things could be a hell of a lot worse. Besides, don't let this eat you up. In the grand scheme of things we (as individuals) are pretty much powerless to change things of that magnitude.

I'm scared of all you said exept of the police. I don't know I don't feel threatened at all.
But all the rest scares me to death!
 
Who in here in scared of the police?

Maybe I'm naive, but I like cops. They help clean society of it's dangers. Yes, there are bad, corrupt cops out there, but for the most part, cops make things better. Who would you call if you were at home and someone was trying to kill you? I don't know about the rest of you, but I'd be calling 911.

Who in here is scared of what you look at on the Internet?

What is there to be scared of? Yeah, there are a lot of ****ed up ideas on the internet, but they arent original ideas. They have always been out there, now they just happen to be more visible. A lot more visible. But there's nothing forcing anyone to get on the internet and certainly nothing that forces you to go to disturbing sites.

Who in here fears not conforming?

Who fears being different? Is that what you're asking? I certainly don't. I could care less about what society in general thinks about me. I do things as I feel fit and I say what I feel fit. I think I have all sorts of freedom. There isn't anything I really don't think I could do if I really wanted to........

And the UN drugs thing? What has that got to do with freedom in the United States, particularly Florida?

Maybe I am just missing something here, but I don't see what the drug trade directly has to do with conformity or the internet or fearing the police???

I could see if this were a discussion about corruption and the drug trade, but conformity? You are WAY out there dude.

I don't like police because they harass people in my neighborhoods for no reasons they participate in the active subjugation of balcks in the states and if you think Blacks are 50% of the population in prison but only 12% in the country because we are abrasive and criminal by nature then I would tend to say that is ignorance. I start out not liking police and go from there. As for our so called Democracy witch is more of an oligarchy, I think if they treated all people equally then you would need as many police in my neighborhood as in the upper class neighborhoods down the road. As long as the rich seek to get richer by exploiting the poor, and those in power seek to keep "minorities" subjugated by miseducating us and halfass teaching us about our history then America can kiss my ass. I believe in the American Dream but I don't give a s--t about the slave holding *******s who created it while driving one race to the brink of extinction and mentally disabling as well as physically enslaving another. I feel the same way about the descendants of those *******s who continue to perpetuate their practices.

Their I said it. I don't know if that was what Neelax was talking about but I think i'm with Drake her post was kind of incoherrent.

Drake: I have just been trying to come up with a schedule that will let me play with some of you all online. After reading dogberry's spill I fill like I have to play mp or put a foot in his -ss.

On the drug topic: There was a report the other day that the biggest Trading commodity and money maker in British Columbia is now weed, having outstripped such 'classics' as forestry, fishing, and mining, by as much as 1 billion dollars a year.

And I'm inclined to believe it, living in the Grow Opp capital of North America, after all.

And no, I have no reason to fear the police, what I read online, and I'm perfectly comfortable not conforming when I choose to do so.
 
I will be dead someday, so none of this really matters. If you look hard enough you can see past all the horrors of the world and find your peace; tune into that vision and ride it out into the sunset a happy person.
 
I would rather ride in to the SunRise!
why does that never happen in movies.

Dont try and tune into the vision but rather let it tune in to you and engulf you in entirity!

I don't smoke mj but occasionally, and to assume my wild ideas are from such is crazy. Alcohol distorts reality much more than the herb. ANY substance used in abuse does as such.

I can not make anyone here understand what I am saying, but realize this: wake up to this world. I used to live in ignorant bliss of how the government isn't so bad. Then I felt the pain of it many times. I do not condemn the police, i condemn the people who vote for such measures of conduct in our society. Big brother is watching you, whether you believe it or not. Any institution that goes on a rampage of killing innocent plants, in the name of the law, has to be insane. Can you imagine if I ran around the city killing roses because, damnit they are evil!

Prohibition does not work. They tried it in the 20s, and they are trying it again now. From drugs, to the internet, to our privacy. . .When will they learn? When will you all???

Please inform yourself from all sides is all I'm asking. You cannot judge a book by what the media or one side of the story tells you.

What book? What is your point? Your ideas are scattered and hard to follow. This thread is a rant, nothing more. Give us something specific to talk about and we shall do so then.

I'm not criticizing your ideas, because some of them definetly have validity, but everyone that replied to this thread is lost because it is hard to figure out what the point is.

Alright
biggrin.gif
No biggy. Looks like you just tried tackling too many ideas at once.
 
yea, almost like a paranoid rant...

I find that things are never as bad as your worst fears and (sadly) never as good as your dreams.
 
I definitely think other threads are pointless. . .but i'll keep my opinions at bay. Besides, whats the use of a forum if you can't have mindless ranting???
wink.gif


Chill out, not all my topics have to be completely thought out & ingenius..hehe

There have been far worse threads, no doubt, NeelaX, (although who am I to judge what is and what is not worthwhile). I just felt a twinge of desperation in your words and that seemed far removed from what I have seen you post earlier.
