Bad American

I think this has been posted before, but damn this is so true!
I love it!!

I'm a Bad American. This pretty much sums it up for me. I like big trucks, big boats, big houses, and naturally, pretty women.

I believe the money I make belongs to me and my family, not some midlevel governmental functionary with a bad comb-over who wants to give it away to crack addicts squirting out babies.

I don't care about appearing compassionate.

I think playing with toy guns doesn't make you a killer. I believe ignoring your kids and giving them Prozac might.

I think I'm doing better than the homeless.

I don't think being a minority makes you noble or victimized. I have the right not to be tolerant of others because they are different, weird or make me mad. This is my life to live, and not necessarily up to others expectations. I know what SEX is and there are not varying degrees of it.

I don't celebrate Kwanzaa. But if you want to that's fine; I just don't feel like everyone else should have to.

I believe that if you are selling me a Dairy Queen shake, a pack of cigarettes, or hotel room you do it in English. As of matter of fact, if you are an American citizen you should speak English. My uncles and forefathers shouldn't have had to die in vain so you can leave the countries you were born in to come disrespect ours, and make us bend to your will. Get over it.

I think the cops have every right to shoot your sorry butt if you're running from them after they tell you to stop. If you can't understand the word 'freeze' or 'stop'in English, see the previous line.

I don't use the excuse "it's for the children" as a shield for unpopular opinions or actions.

I know how to count votes and I feel much safer letting a machine with no political affiliation do a recount when needed. I know what the definition of lying is, and it isn't based on the word "is"-ever.
I don't think just because you were not born in this country, you qualify for any special loan programs, gov't sponsored bank loans, etc., so you can open a hotel, 7-Eleven, trinket shop, or any thing else, while the indigenous peoples can't get past a high school education because they can't afford it.

I didn't take the initiative in inventing the Internet. I thought the Taco Bell dog was funny.

I want them to bring back safe and sane fireworks.

I believe no one ever died because of something Ozzy Osbourne, Ice-T or Marilyn Manson sang, but that doesn't mean I want to listen to that crap from someone else's car when I'm stopped at a red light. But I respect your right to.

I think that being a student doesn't give you any more enlightenment than working at Blockbuster or Jack In The Box.

I don't want to eat or drink anything with the words light, lite or fat-free on the package.

Our soldiers did not go to some foreign country and risk their lives in vain and defend our Constitution so that decades later you can tell me it's a living document ever changing and is open to interpretation. The guys who wrote it were light years ahead of anyone today, and they meant what they said - now leave the document alone, or there's going to be trouble.

I don't hate the rich. I help the poor. I know wrestling is fake. I've never owned, or was a slave, and a large percentage of our forefathers weren't wealthy enough to own one either. Please stop blaming me because some prior white people were idiots - and remember, tons of white, Indian, Chinese, and other races have been enslaved too - it was wrong for every one of them.

I believe a self-righteous liberal Democrat with a cause is more dangerous than a Hell's Angel with an attitude.

I want to know exactly which church is it where the "Reverend" Jessie Jackson preaches; and, what exactly is his job function.

I own a gun, you can own a gun, and any red blooded American should be allowed to own a gun, but if you use it in a crime, then you will serve the time.

I think Bill Gates has every right to keep every penny he made and continue to make more. If it makes you mad, then invent the next operating system that's better and put your name on the building. Ask your buddy that invented the Internet to help you.

I don't believe in hate crime legislation. Even suggesting it makes me mad. You're telling me that someone who is a minority, gay, disabled, another nationality, or otherwise different from the mainstream of this country has more value as a human being that I do as a white male. If someone kills anyone, I'd say that it's a hate crime. We don't need more laws! Let's enforce the ones we already have.

I think turkey bacon, turkey beef, turkey fake anything sucks. I believe that it doesn't take a village to raise a child-it takes a parent with the guts to stand up to the kid and spank his butt and say "NO!" when it's necessary to do so.

I'll admit that the only movie that ever made me cry was Ole Yeller.

I didn't realize Dr. Seuss was a genius until I had a kid.

I will not be frowned upon or be looked down upon or be made to keep silent because I have these beliefs and opinions. I thought this country allowed me that right. I will not conform or compromise just to keep from hurting somebody's feelings. I'm neither angry nor disenfranchised, no matter how desperately the mainstream media would like the world to believe otherwise.

Yes, I guess by some people's definition, I may be a bad American.

But that's tough.

You're not a bad AMERICAN by any stretch of one's imagination....

I don't celebrate KWANZAA either, nor do I celebrate HANNUKAH or halloween.....

I believe a SELF righteous, stone throwing conservative republican, with a cause, who resides in a glass house with dirty windows is even MORE dangerous....

JESSE JACKSON serves the same GOD as the child RAPING catholic priest serve; at least JESSE picked on someone his own age....

I encourage hate crime legislation; I don't recall any WHITE males that were sitting in RYDER moving trucks randomly being assaulted after TIMOTHY McVEIGH blew up the federal building in OKLAHOMA.....

I love turkey bacon, sausage, jerky,.....

Parents NEED TO DISCIPLINE THEIR BAD A$$ kids and not
get angry with me when I place their kid's A$$ under arrest for breaking the law...

I DON'T nor WILL I EVER frown upon you, look down on you or ASK that you remain silent on your opinions; I am a veteran and am DAMN proud of it; I've trained for the opportunity to defend your's, mine and OUR right to voice OUR belief's.

I'm a Bad American. This pretty much sums it up for me. I like big trucks, big boats, big houses, and naturally, pretty women.

I believe the money I make belongs to me and my family, not some midlevel governmental functionary with a bad comb-over who wants to give it away to crack addicts squirting out babies. - --- but I'll gladly donate it to rebuild occupied countries while bridges and community superstructure crumbles in my hometown and my state is on the verge of bankruptcy.

I don't care about appearing compassionate. --- aww nonsense...it's better to appear being compassionate than to actually have to be so...

I think playing with toy guns doesn't make you a killer. I believe ignoring your kids and giving them Prozac might. --- Totally agree here, unless you play toy guns with the kids and teach them how to point them at minorities and pretend to shoot.

I think I'm doing better than the homeless.---- a lot of Americans are only a couple of paychecks away from being one of the homeless.

I don't think being a minority makes you noble or victimized. I have the right not to be tolerant of others because they are different, weird or make me mad. This is my life to live, and not necessarily up to others expectations. I know what SEX is and there are not varying degrees of it. --- Of course, this is okay as long as you get to be the victimizer. I'm glad you know what SEX is and that there can't be any varying degrees of it.....for YOU.

I don't celebrate Kwanzaa. But if you want to that's fine; I just don't feel like everyone else should have to. ---nope, don't celebrate it either, nor Hanukkah.

I believe that if you are selling me a Dairy Queen shake, a pack of cigarettes, or hotel room you do it in English. As of matter of fact, if you are an American citizen you should speak English. My uncles and forefathers shouldn't have had to die in vain so you can leave the countries you were born in to come disrespect ours, and make us bend to your will. Get over it. - - - Sociolological research believes that it takes 2-3 generations for people who settle from another country to become assimilated into a culture. Go to any big city and you'll still find enclaves of Ukranians, Italians, Poles and other white groups who has older members still struggling with English. These are the people who helped settle the country and provided labor - but you are right about one thing - in the past, there wasn't much accommodation - they were ostracized, fought among themselves, delegated to lower paying jobs and often denied access to voting and holding public office.

I think the cops have every right to shoot your sorry butt if you're running from them after they tell you to stop. If you can't understand the word 'freeze' or 'stop'in English, see the previous line. ---- breaking the law is just that.

I don't use the excuse "it's for the children" as a shield for unpopular opinions or actions.

I know how to count votes and I feel much safer letting a machine with no political affiliation do a recount when needed. I know what the definition of lying is, and it isn't based on the word "is"-ever. ----- I'd feel much safer if the elections weren't run by officials of any major political party, who obviously see their best interest in preventing other parties from taking root.

I don't think just because you were not born in this country, you qualify for any special loan programs, gov't sponsored bank loans, etc., so you can open a hotel, 7-Eleven, trinket shop, or any thing else, while the indigenous peoples can't get past a high school education because they can't afford it. -----uh...I think the indigenous people in this country are Native Americans. It was often settlers from Europe (many of whom didn't speak English at the time) who moved into their government protected lands. Whether we like it or not, we broke a lot of treaties with the indigenous people in order to expand our country. The indigenous people didn't count because they weren't "christians." Their children were forced into schools we created to teach them how to be like us - the rest now run casinos on reservations.

I didn't take the initiative in inventing the Internet. I thought the Taco Bell dog was funny. - - - so did I.

I want them to bring back safe and sane fireworks. - - - long overdue.

I believe no one ever died because of something Ozzy Osbourne, Ice-T or Marilyn Manson sang, but that doesn't mean I want to listen to that crap from someone else's car when I'm stopped at a red light. But I respect your right to. - - -good.

I think that being a student doesn't give you any more enlightenment than working at Blockbuster or Jack In The Box. - - - I'd wager many of those employees ARE students, cuz you ain't gonna get to buy that big truck, big boat, big house or lure pretty women with a career on the line there.

I don't want to eat or drink anything with the words light, lite or fat-free on the package.

Our soldiers did not go to some foreign country and risk their lives in vain and defend our Constitution so that decades later you can tell me it's a living document ever changing and is open to interpretation. The guys who wrote it were light years ahead of anyone today, and they meant what they said - now leave the document alone, or there's going to be trouble. - - -uh...well let's see here - remove the "amendments" to that Constitution, and just what rights would you have? You wouldn't have the right to post this, for example, not without risk of repercussion by whatever political party was runnin' the show. There would be no freedom of the press, etc. Amendments are part of what makes this a living document - they provide for addressing issues that weren't relevant at the time. For example, "decades later," women were provided the right to vote. People forget that when this country was founded, only well-off white men who were allowed to own property were able to even vote or hold any kind of public office. One of the reasons this Constitution goes through interpretations is because a lot of the soldiers drafted to go to some foreign country and fight were members of minorities who were NOT afforded the same rights back here. Japanese families were interred in camps during World War II...property confiscated out of fear and paranoia, yet their sons were eventually allowed to fight. African-Americans were allowed to form their own combat units, even though they couldn't hold jobs, public office, vote in some states, or use the same bathroom as whites.

I don't hate the rich. I help the poor. I know wrestling is fake. I've never owned, or was a slave, and a large percentage of our forefathers weren't wealthy enough to own one either. Please stop blaming me because some prior white people were idiots - and remember, tons of white, Indian, Chinese, and other races have been enslaved too - it was wrong for every one of them. ---- this is perfectly right, except there are still some people who are idiots, who believe in superiority of a race. Look at the marriage laws over the years, where women were denied the right to own property, for example...or to vote, etc...or when domestic violence was overlooked because she was considered a man's "property."

I believe a self-righteous liberal Democrat with a cause is more dangerous than a Hell's Angel with an attitude. ---- this wornout cliche only illustrates the attitude that a true American has to be a member of one particular political party and toe that party line as rigidly as any dictatorial government we claim to be against. There's nothing more dangerous than a "conservative" who demands that everyone worship God in HIS image, live their lives exactly the way HE does, and continually make sacrifices to provide special rights and accommodate HIS own insecurities about the world around him.

I want to know exactly which church is it where the "Reverend" Jessie Jackson preaches; and, what exactly is his job function. ---- I've often wondered that also...but then, I'm still trying to figure out how Pat Robertson can be called a christian - or a preacher. Tax them all!

I own a gun, you can own a gun, and any red blooded American should be allowed to own a gun, but if you use it in a crime, then you will serve the time. - - -absolutely. The right to defend your property and family is fundamental. Shootouts in the local saloon or on Main Street, or duels to settle an argument might be a bit extreme.

I think Bill Gates has every right to keep every penny he made and continue to make more. If it makes you mad, then invent the next operating system that's better and put your name on the building. Ask your buddy that invented the Internet to help you. ---I thought the Internet was developed at a public university for the military?

I don't believe in hate crime legislation. Even suggesting it makes me mad. You're telling me that someone who is a minority, gay, disabled, another nationality, or otherwise different from the mainstream of this country has more value as a human being that I do as a white male. If someone kills anyone, I'd say that it's a hate crime. We don't need more laws! Let's enforce the ones we already have. - - - I think you got this figured the wrong way around here. It wasn't the African-Americans hangin' their own in the magnolia trees of the South or burning crosses outside white churches while the local sheriff ignored the act. Then there were the straight white guys standing in the courtrooms cryin' a successful murder self-defense cuz their peepee was threatened when a gay guy hit on them....hmm...always in front of a judge who was just like them. (if a woman coulda claimed that crap every time a guy hit on HER, there wouldn't be many of us around now).Twisting the historical facts of treatment by one group on another to claim they are getting "special protections or rights" is one of the biggest cliches used. Maybe if that Constitution had just passed one amendment that said "No special rights, treatment, or privileges for straight white men," we wouldn't have needed all the other stuff. But then, your argument here is that the Constitution shoulda remained a document giving ONLY them rights.

I think turkey bacon, turkey beef, turkey fake anything sucks. I believe that it doesn't take a village to raise a child-it takes a parent with the guts to stand up to the kid and spank his butt and say "NO!" when it's necessary to do so. ---- you bet, even when the kid is a child of a public official with lots of connections to keep his name outa trouble.

I'll admit that the only movie that ever made me cry was Ole Yeller.

I didn't realize Dr. Seuss was a genius until I had a kid. ---

I will not be frowned upon or be looked down upon or be made to keep silent because I have these beliefs and opinions. I thought this country allowed me that right. I will not conform or compromise just to keep from hurting somebody's feelings. I'm neither angry nor disenfranchised, no matter how desperately the mainstream media would like the world to believe otherwise.

Most of that I agree with, except this one mainly. If the fat ass cops could run fast enough to catch anyone, they wouldn't have to shoot them in the back. And doesn't shooting someone in the back make you *gasp* a COWARD. And isn't it illegal for a regular person to shem if they're trying to escape? If a cops life is not in any grave danger, and the person running is a drug dealer or theif, not a murderer, and the cop shoots him in the back, the cop should get 20 years to life in a state pen. Damn cops.

I kind of find it funny when people say "damn cops" and are pissed that they stereotype people or whatever. Umm, hello... saying "damn cops" is just as much a stereotype as saying all women are whores, all Middle Easterners are "camel jockies" or terrorists, saying all Pollocks are idiots, saying all Southerners are trash, as saying all French are cowards, all Germans are Nazis, all men are dogs, etc. Be consistant ya bunch of hos. If you're going to stereotype, atleast when you condemn someone else for it start off by saying "I'm a hypocritical bitch, but... "

Why the heck should a cop have to chase a criminal every time one runs? Tell me, when you get in a fight do you say "Okay, you hit me first, then its my turn", lets all be nice about this fighting now and make sure everyone gets a fair chance at it. A dudes going to pop a cop without blinking and without letting him get out of his car, but you want a cop to run down some dude. I dont think a cop should pop every dude that turns to run away, but if he sees somebody shoot somebody else for instance, tells the guy to drop the gun... and the guy drops the gun and starts to run away, I believe he should be capped just like that. The dude just shot somebody, he'd do it again in a second.

This society is too quick to help out he criminals and yet the victims get to live as victims, or die as them. In my opinion its simple, you take a life you loose yours. I always thought it funny that death row dudes would plead with the jury "It was wrong for me to take a life, its going to be wrong for you to take mine." Its funny how life all of a sudden had value when it suited their goals. Screw that, I want televised firing squads or public hangings. Wanna see what happens when you take anothers life? We'll show you.

As I said before, this isnt for crimes like chicken thieving and stuff... but for murder, etc.

Well Eggs, it isn't always as clear as black and white, a cop gets a call to a shooting and while approching sees someone fleeing the scene. Should he run them down and shoot them or run them down and see if he is running from the cop or the shooter? My point is, the cop should be required to see a gun and then have the right to shoot the bitch down no questions asked, no warnings just shoot em. I'm sure that piece of shit didn't warn his victim before putting a round in his/her chest. More street justice and less corrupt court justice I say. Give the police more power.

Yeah, I was an MP in the military (or the equivalent... was in the Navy). Certainly not saying that cops should just cap everyone, but I think there hands are so tied now that they cant effectively operate.

Its kinda funny, but from my experience its usually the criminals that are complaining about their rights being abused. Even when they are abusing the rights of others.

Well, I was 9545, SP is a version of that, but the official designation for Navy MP is Masters-At-Arms (MAA). But I was 9545, which means they take you out of your rate and you do the job of an MAA.

no shit, aint that the truth. a while ago, i remember hearing or reading about a guy who broke into someones house, and robbed it while the couple was upstairs sleeping. the "man" of the house woke up to noise downstairs and ended up chasing the guy out the door. on his way out, the robber tripped and like broke his leg on the ouside stairs. cops came and he got arrested for buglary or whatever. then.........the robber actually tried to sue the owner of the house for like faulty property or something like that! are you kidding me???????????

if it were my house, the robber would be LUCKY if when i caught him, i didnt torture him too much before i killed him.



You're a funny guy, Sully, I like you. Dat's why I'm going to kill you lahst.

My point of how laws work for the criminals and why I have no problems with street justice or vigalantism.

Dude, that kinda stuff happens all the time. This robber was climbing around on a guys roof trying to get in through the sky light... so the dude falls through and breaks some bones. Sues the home owner and wins! That kind of stuff happens alot, and it makes me sad because this so isnt what the founders of our country had in mind.

I know that things change and we have to modernize, but we've oversteppted our bounds in so many things and the courts are no longer enforcing the law, they are enforcing their own agenda. They too are human to be sure, but is it too much to ask that one try and be objective?
