Gun Control
I think that's even more of an encouragement, really. Criminals and uh, evil people, are willing to use guns to gain their power. How can peace-sign fingers protect against guns? You have to fight fire with fire in this case because the other fire is hell.

Posts like these aren't really relevant to vegetarianism. I think you should start a blog. Please don't encourage him. :pray:

Eh, burning Twilight books is overrated. :razz: Today I finally say "Good bye and f* you" to Hotmail. For some reason I cannot recover my password nor enter the secondary e-mail account if I could recover it. Oh well. This new g-mail syncs with my phone too, ha. Lets see how that works.

Should American football be renamed handegg?
Here comes the Americans in their rage! Hey, we TIFers in California should start a proposition for this, along with any other states that allow props, the rest of you write to your Congressmen. Handegg or even Footegg better than Football!

Well then there's not much you can do besides not being their friend anymore. But I would highly recommend not doing that though.

People who mess up houses because they don't give out candy should get shot. Like in Texas.

I think he saw the one show on the Food Channel where some Chinese restaurant boiled/deep fried little chicks alive. Poor sob got confused with everything else was cooked that way.

Pregnant after 50?
No because a stateless society should be leading government, so of course not abortions should be forced.

Private Prison Corps & Arizona's Immigration law
Good thing you brought that up, increasing taxes and all. #1 reason Americans don't want immigration: they "hog up" all our welfare but they don't pay nothing. Legalize them... Dada, they now have to pay taxes. They don't, jail them, like everybody else.

Tunnels are not costly to make, we're talking about a meter-wide tunnel, a step below a trench. You're underestimating the power and determination of the drug cartels. They'll make more or think of other ways to transport their goods. With the endangerment of American citizens, that should be a prime motivation to fix immigration. Secure the border from criminals, but willing-to-work immigrants should not be considered as criminals. 99% of illegal immigration is not happening to do criminal activities, it's the other way around. AND YET AGAIN you do not understand the situation. Immigrants don't want to cross the desert then get kicked out. If we reform immigration, they can do however many hours of paperwork, get over here, and stay. You think immigrants come here without a worry about the world. That is COMPLETELY false. What we need to do is change the laws first, so those who are willing to stay and become residents/work permits, they can come forward. Why do you think people risk their lives crossing the desert, then risk all their journey by getting kicked out?

Keeping the borders closed to drug smugglers and REAL criminals is a good reason to build a wall. Otherwise, they'd just cross freely when they wanted to and commit crimes, like beheading someone. And going to a government agency, filling out paperwork is a real drag. Why do that when you can just walk across the desert? Streamlining immigration is a good goal, but it doesn't matter much if we don't protect our borders. It hardly is a good reason. First of all, out of the millions of illegals in this country right now only a few thousands are actual criminals with relations to gangs and drug cartels. Secondly, if you adopt such ideas like blocking-off-crime-spots, you better start working on walls around Compton, Vegas, El Paso, etc. But that isn't fair because it's oppressing American citizens. Not people, just folks with the title "citizen". Thirdly, a wall won't stop organized crime. Drug cartels already have tunnels under the border and, oh my God, citizens working for them! That almost nullifies the wall entirely. Again, this is showing your ignorance on the whole subject. Doing paperwork isn't the PASSAGE into the country, it's the GUARANTEE, you won't get kicked out. You'll be surprised how many immigrants will go for hours writing paperwork if that means they can stay. My own parents, when Clinton issued a raffle, spent hours and hours making and sending multiple letters in hopes to be accepted. That's the use of paperwork, not for the citizen status, but for a certificate that says you can be here. Ease of mind.

If entering legally means filling out any paperwork, it will always be easier to enter illegally (unless there's a wall). Your ignorance is vast. If it was just paperwork, the only "immigrants" that would enter illegally will be drug smugglers and REAL criminals. It's the wait time on the paperwork that forces immigrants to illegally get in the country. If it was a much faster process with a greater chance on being "Accepted" then we would not have this problem. As for the wall, if conservatives are so against spending money why is building a huge wall any different? Oh wait, money spent on oppressing others is okay.

Not even that, we just need to let them be able to work here. Visas, work permits, and if they're willing to stay here and start a new life, start giving them the first steps to residency. It's the same way as now but with a lot more openings and a much faster process. How can they break a law if there is none?

Berlin Wall really was meant for keeping people in East Berlin, not out. The problem is immigrants, not emigrants. It doesn't matter. Building a wall to have guards, which would have to be able to shoot for their purpose there is otherwise useless, to keep people locked in their hellhole and not giving them a chance to change their lives for the better, is the same thing as the Soviet Union did to their residents. Walls are not the solution. Banning people from entering this country, is not the solution either. Being a big racist jackass about it, is certainly not the solution for it either.

You know you just discribed the Berlin Wall? You REALLY want America to become the oppressor they so long fought against? Use some common sense and respect for your fellow man first, people.

The problem is that immigration in the United States is broken. The feds have proven themselves unable (or unwilling) to control illegal immigration as is their job through ICE, so Arizona took matters into its own hands. While it is not an ideal solution, it is not a bad one, either. As to taking peoples' freedom - just remember that those people broke the law under both the old and new definitions. Arizona is simply enforcing laws which already exist. I'm sorry, but there's a huge [bleep]ing difference between laws and basic human rights. Laws are not fundamental degrees from God, some are wrong, like limiting the selling of rifles or banning Christianity. You out of all people should know laws are not good and ought to be enforced.
