There was a study done back in 97\', I believe about the death penatly in southern states. Did you know a black man in a southern state is more likely to receive the death penatly than a white man, for the very same crime? Our legal system needs reworked.

People rant about America in front of the White House protesting about somehting stupid. We can burn flags and can go on television and call the president a jackass and because it\'s in our constitution, we can get away with it. I think us Americans have too much freedom. Just my two cents.



too much freedom... there is no such thing.  I want freedom from oppression.  I want the freedom to do to myself what I wish.  I want right to own my own property, free from income tax.  I don\'t want to support other people, I can barely support myself.  It would be easier to do so if 45% of my income didn\'t get taxed to the government.  You talk about free speech... but try and get on the air and talk about the evils and corruption of the demopublicans.

The government should have few roles...
1- Defense against other countries... (not preemptive policiing)
2- Okay can\'t think of anything else right now that can\'t be handled by private and competitive business

I think you should take a long look at this country before you decide whether or not we have too much freedom.

Ok, first off, I was just babbling. Second off, freedom of certain things like press, property and shit like that is alright with me. You need to understand what taxes are used for. Many people want to do away with taxes. I say keep it. Why you say? You need to understand what the government does with your money. They use it for our military, restoration of certain things, fixing of roads, ect. Also, you say the government should have few roles. Ok, that\'s messed up. All the government should be there for is military purposes (defense)? Nah. Without the government, everything will be messed up. Warlords and gangs will run the streets, terrorism, homicide, zero rights. The country would be third world in a matter of months. Decisions would take forever to go through, everything will be in disarray.

It all depends on how the did it, not the skin.  And it\'s not the legal system it\'s people.

You don\'t want to pay any taxes yet you want the country to support you.  How about public schooling and police.  Who needs either of those, my money is my money. :rolleyes:

You are dense to think people do not get persecuted for their ethnic backround or color in the legal system.


BTW..if you wanted me to stay on that subject..you shouldnt have asked me that other question.

Believe it or not I wouldn\'t send a black to jail just because they\'re black.  I don\'t hate them to the point where I want all of them dead, to me most *note I said most* are just really annoying.
