I totally agree with my Canadian friend above, who's done a wise thing by moving over here!
We're living a great life, yes we have to respect some censorship for the normal, polite and organised Muslim population, who don't believe in terrorism or acts of extremism. Muslim religion teaches peace and friendship.
As for most of the comments above which I am sure are from Citizens of the US! believe me, we live in a far more pleasant world than you do right now. We have freedom to earn tax free, we get to socialise with cultures and people from all over the world with really interesting varied backgrounds and oppinions, we don't have a Warmonger for a President, and we're part of a country which is building up to something great. You guys are all hanging in there thinking you've got the best lives, well believe me you don't! I've spent many months in the U.S and I love the place! But it isn't the only place on earth. Get those maps out, figure out where the UAE is, and then do some research into all the great things going on here. It'll make you feel quite depressed with your normal lives and rising unemployment alongside your economic slump! But heh, I guess more unemployment means more time to play GTA IV!! So you'll all be happy anyway.
Why not try understanding the world instead of just talking trash about things you are ignorant to?

Posted 07/05/08 at 11:41pm eraserheadthelynch: why did he send gay porn to the judges?

Posted 07/05/08 at 04:30pm Jose_Pedro_Ramirez: No one believed that the ice at the North Pole would ever melt, but...
Posted 07/05/08 at 04:28pm Haggard: Maybe he thought the judges would appreciate it?
Posted 07/05/08 at 03:27pm Silencets: I'm sure JT had a perfectly good reason sending gay porn....It'll come to me any day now...
Posted 07/05/08 at 02:54pm Grendal: once you send gay porn to judges, I'm comfortable calling you crazy
Posted 07/05/08 at 02:46pm eraserheadthelynch: I dont think hes crazy but his values and social skills are slightly wrack
Posted 07/05/08 at 02:38pm Grendal: Jacks actually a really good example of how not to deal with your mental illness and what can happen if it goes untreated
Posted 07/05/08 at 02:37pm Grendal: Well most people with a mental illness admit it and get help instead of trolling a website for their ego ala jack
Posted 07/05/08 at 02:32pm BlackIce: True, that does explain why the Patriot Act is legal, but..
Posted 07/05/08 at 02:21pm Grendal: As far as I know theres no law banning people with mental illness from holding jobs as lawyers or judges
Posted 07/05/08 at 12:40pm BlackIce: Sadly, the law banning Mentals from any sort of important job isn't well enforced. Therefore, Jackie is still a "Lawyer".
Posted 07/05/08 at 12:23pm Rodrigo Ybáñez García: Jack Thompson is drooling right now...
Posted 07/05/08 at 12:23pm Rodrigo Ybáñez García: "Two teens were apparently arguing over a Sony PSP in Jacksonville, Florida ended in a shooting".
Posted 07/05/08 at 12:22pm Rodrigo Ybáñez García: Have you checked this? http://kotaku.com/5022241/psp-at-the-center-of-florida-shooting
Posted 07/05/08 at 11:30am gameman9: I though Jack Thompson was banned.
