of course there's no guarantee for that. but in that case he would have been killed by self defense, in the process of the arrest. that's certainly not the same as an execution, is it ?! and exactly what kind of info would you get after shooting him in the head ??? it's pretty hard to...

i don't know about you, guy, but i've learned very early to NEVER confuse a government with its population. nobody hates Americans on this board ! we're questioning the actions of your government, which is something entirely different, and also something every good citizen in this world should...

nice post, hedgehog ! and i like to add something: even IF the US wanted to "offer their help" out of sheer humanitarian reasons... could they afford it, without getting some sort of benefit from it ?! may i remind you that the USA is almost bankrupt ! about 400 billion $ shortfall ! thousands...

how come you guys only see those two extreme possibilities ?! why does it have to be either peaceful negotiation (which is indeed pointless) or killing (which is just as pointless). what about arresting them, infiltrating them by counter inteligence measures ?! you can always work around the...

aah, sarcasm is such a beautiful thing, isn't it, Peter ?! too bad you missed the target entirely, dude, cause i'm not talking about economical help that is offered along with the occupation of military forces !!! so i DON'T "advocate that same involvement as a means to peace and understanding"...

exactly ! very good post, Johan !

i'm talking about both gulf wars, Iran, Afghanistan and even Chile. there are a few more events which had been triggered by the US government only - not speaking about the rest of the western democracies - but the ones that i've mentioned are well known to the world. Economical measures would...

i'm not gonna waste anymore time on this, georges. killing people is NOT a way to make the world a safer place - let alone a peaceful one. if you can't accept that wisdom (shared by all peaceful and reasonable people around the world), i truly feel sorry for you, and i see no further reason to...

you DID say "kill them, kill their families, kill their friends". that was your first post in this thread. have a good look. i can't be sure. just like you can't be sure that they ARE supporting them. that's exactly why i stated that the measures you favor would be an affront to human rights...

and that gives you the right to kill innocents, too ? is that what you're trying to tell me ?! neither arresting their families nor killing them will stop any terrorist from doing what he does. in fact, that would be just another good reason to continue their war. is that what you want, georges...

"kill 'em all" "kill their families" "kill their friends" ??? do you guys realize you sound like the terrorists you despise so much ? and do you honestly believe that would change anything for the better ? how did WE react on the killing of innocent civilians ? did we back off ? in the contrary...

it's never that easy to say which console will be the better one. the companies can juggle and brag with numbers as much as they want, that doesn't mean a thing. even the impartial performance test won't give you a clear insight as to how this will play out in the future. take processor...

uhm, yes. absolutely !!! especially the Iran/Irak war was nothing but a result of U.S. government meddling in the middle east ! who armed Persia/Iran to be the biggest stronghold in the middle east against the communists ? right, the USA ! who approached Saddam Hussein to overcome the Persians...

that's not entirely correct, AEGAN. natural scientist have discovered homosexual behaviour (including sexual intercourse) among primates, and some other species, too ! i watched a documentary about this topic, but that was long ago, and i can't quite remember all the details...

and don't forget to give your minister of common sense his well-deserved share :1orglaugh

chin up, AEGAN ! i think the Aussie team did great, and presented a very attractive football - especially regarding offense and teamplay. granted, they have to improve their defense a little bit, but aside from that they got everything what it takes to be a solid football team on an...

i don't think so. that is, i'm sure it has been said, no question. but it was unjustified, because a gay relationship is based on the the same condition as a hetero relationship: two individuals, no more ! and it is a given fact that any kind of relationship, be it sexually, emotionally...

by spending too much time on Freeones ?!?! :confused: ;)

waaaaait a second, dude. firstly, i didn't bash you for your beliefs, but for generally insulting homosexuals ! secondly, what comments about polygamy ? you mean saying that it's a very difficult, fragile and extremely rare kind of a relationship ? well, sorry, pal, but those are given facts...

WTF ??? i just explained to you as to how you obviously misunderstood my points. i can tell, dude, cause you seem to have a completely wrong picture of me. so how the hell do you stand by your post that said "close-minded polygamy hater" ?!?!? would you please explain yourself ?!

i already gave an example as to how polygamy might be dangerous to those involved in it. i'm NOT saying that it has to be that way, but polygamy certainly contains more dangers than homosexuality.

never said that !!! i said that i don't believe that you can love two different WOMEN the same WAY, or with the same intensity. and don't you tell me that a heterosexual man's relationship to a desired woman ain't unique (same goes for homosexuals btw)! i also said that there ARE exceptions, but...

very well put, man. i'd also like to add that most of the hetero couples don't even decide for a churchly marriage. so if the christian definition of marriage doesn't have to apply to them, why does it HAVE to apply to homosexuals ???

i didn't miss it at all, Dirty Sanchez ! but i figured it wasn't worth answering to your question anymore, given the very ignorant and insulting remarks that came along with it, which reflected nothing else but your personal and very obvious disgust towards these people - and that certainly...

WOHOOOO !!! :nanner: :partysml: :glugglug:

i guess you're gonna have an awesome party over there. ;) well deserved win for Brazil, no question. :bowdown: i think it was a very good cup. lots of great games and many goals - very enjoyable ! :thumbsup:

brilliant, dude ! NO SHIT ! straight to the point, insulting as always, and with no argumentative value whatsoever. i won't even waste my time and energy to furtherly comment this BS post, D.S. !

I'm most certainly for it. My uncle is homosexual - fully and wholeheartedly accepted by everyone in our family - and i'm very glad that i had the luck to grow up without the usual and most pathetic prejudices concerning homosexuality. what i truly wish for is that someone/something would...

waaay too many good actors out there. impossible for me to pick only one favorite. Ian Holm (a master actor IMO. would love to see him on stage once) Willem Dafoe (same as above) Sean Penn (one of those actors who can build up an enormous intensity) Gary Oldman (same as above) Christopher...

Evans is a natural born comedian ! i could laugh my ass off the moment he enters the stage. :D

WOW ! great find, darkman !

Re: Paris Hilton is ugly or hot??? i wouldn't consider Paris a beauty, but she's still good-looking. i mean, hell, she's a frickin' model, isn't she ?! you sure don't get the chance to run the catwalk if you're UGLY !

there's one thing i'd really like to change. i'm not comfortable with the "banned4life" option. i think everyone deserves a second chance. if he/she fucks up for the second time, you have my blessing for banning that member for good. but a second chance should be granted ! just my 2 cents

I'm too slow for this world...

Flick Shagwell

no, i don't think so. sorry, no idea who this might be... :dunno:

go get 'em, juballs !!! kick their asses.. HARD ! ;)

guys, i will not comment any possible similarities between Jill and Sylvia, but this is DEFINITELY JILL KELLY !!! PERIOD !

YOU, TOO ??? :rofl:

hmmm, but that might also mean that she's just going to have that one breast ... errr ... repaired ... fixed ... remodeled, instead of getting new implants. whaddaya think ?

wait a second... i thought crock is colloquial for barfly (like barfly ain't colloquial either :rolleyes: ) DAMN, I failed to insult him. :mad: :D Stalin ??? pah, more like a backyard Mussolini !

goddamn big-tits junkies !!! ;) seriously, i think hers are just fine the way they are. too bad she decided to get another job. but hey, Chacun à son goût, n'est pas ?!

LOL i think we're going slightly off-topic. okay, back to the minister of common sense thing :D

I would. :1orglaugh

well, in that case "crockov" would be more appropriate, wouldn't it ?! ;)

actually i didn't pick the USA because i thought mcrocket lived there, but because i thought it would be a good counter-example compared to Germany. but thanks for the info on "crock", anyway, Nightfly ! ;) i sort of like "crock" ! may i use that as a nickname for ya, mcrocket :D ;) just...

mcrocket, i'd LOVE to have it managed the way you described it, i just don't believe it's possible. look, we have THOUSANDS of members here. how many would really care whether a member gets banned or not - seriously ? okay, let's take those away and continue with the rest, those who care about...

wow ! thanks for the dedication, mcrocket (well, sort of..;)) i think the answer to your question is dependent on the political situation of the country in question. take my country, Germany, for example. unlike the USA we have a lot more than just 2 possible parties, and one of them, the NPD...

i agree. another good reason why the banning should be moderator business only ! i don't know about the current mods, since i've only just returned to Freeones, but we certainly had some incidents in the past, if you can remember. that's good to hear, BNF, and i already figured so. i merely...

you guys are making some compelling arguments here. however, i doubt that post count or rep power can guarantee an unbiased judgement concerning the banning of a member. and you wouldn't want to turn this board into a class society. there have already been many issues concerning rep power and...
