Frankie5 Angels Posted July 7, 2002 Share Posted July 7, 2002 Even though I believe that Parabola (cool name by the way) is wrong I still don?t think you should insult him because your views are different justin. Also,Supersayian,are you saying what you posted isn?t idiotic garbage?I think you need to think about what your posting before you post it buddy.Justin and supersayian,you both obviously take this whole discussion too seriously and personally. In any case I dont think any of you should be stating your opinions as facts either (meaning everyone here(not that everyone has)). [b]I[/b] still think that the US is selling arms to many nations and [b]I[/b] would find it wrong if we didn?t take innocents to consideration. Otherwise what would we be? Just a bunch of terrorist.

Besides, Parabola was saying that was true, when it's obviously bull. [QUOTE][i]Originally posted by Frankie5 Angels [/i] [B]Also,Supersayian,are you saying what you posted isn?t idiotic garbage?[/B][/QUOTE] I love when people say these things. If you notice carefully, F5A, you'll notice the "I personally" part. That means my ideals. And, if I may say so, I think that the idea of not caring about someone who openly disgraces my own country getting hurt who openly disgraces our pain and suffering, is more believeible than thinking that Bush set up the WTC incident. Oh, and I must ask. F5A, where are you from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Posted July 7, 2002 Share Posted July 7, 2002 Heh...I can see your opinion Frankie. But the fact remains, it IS garbage, and believing it shows how ignorant your opinion on the matter is. Bush would have no reason to plan the 9/11 attack...THAT is what I said was garbage. And the US does sell arms to it's allies, but not to it's enemies. You see what I'm saying? I do believe the US sells arms, but not to hostile forces. I certainly don't believe Bush planned the 9/11 attack. I do take all this serioulsy, probably more than I should, but that's beside the point. I think it's pathetic when people waste their time coming up with needless conspiracy theories. I think it's more pathetic when people argue those theories with facts. As for Parabola: I didn't mean a literal fight. I meant an argument. If you want to be banned, you can just leave. Otherwise, SuperSaiyan has answered your statement. -Justin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie5 Angels Posted July 8, 2002 Share Posted July 8, 2002 SuperSayian,if your "ideals" include the killing of innocents then I feel sorry for you my friend. Anyways,as for me,I live in small-town Michigan USA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heaven's Cloud Posted July 8, 2002 Share Posted July 8, 2002 [color=indigo]Well I jumped back into this topic a day late and a dollar short, but I will put in my two cents (please forgive all of the lousy puns, I am too tired to use my own creativity right now). First order of business, Parabola, your topic makes no sense. Did you come up with that ridiculous conspiracy theory on your own, or do you have an actual argument to support your theory? Second order of business, F5A, I hope we are still selling arms, we give so many away that it would be nice to receive some compensation in return. Finally, I don't think that the arguing in this topic is a bad thing, as long as it is rational, constructive debating rather than long stirngs of swear words. It is good to state your opinion and defend it to the teeth, just don't get upset when someone dosen't see eye to eye with you.[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted July 8, 2002 Share Posted July 8, 2002 [color=royalblue]I must agree with Heaven's Cloud here. I haven't read the last page, so I won't address the argument itself. But I do want to say that I personally believe that most members here are mature enough to debate an issue...no matter what it is. In the Xbox/PC forum, where I was debating an issue with Black Hawk and Jabroni, I can see that some would say "they're only gone because they disagreed with him". But, if you actually read what I posted...and if you read the Wall Street Journal article that I put there...you'll notice that neither of the aforementioned members [i]ever[/i] responded or addressed what I said directly. They simply moved on and continued to talk about totally unrelated issues. The reason I'm mentioning this is because I am trying to say that I don't discourage people from disagreeing...that's what freedom of speech is all about. And everyone is entitled to their opinion. But at the same time, if you're going to debate with people...you have to remain civil and be respectful. It's also respectful to actually [i]read[/i] what others say and understand their comments, so that you can effectively reply. I know that seems a little off track in this thread, but I guess I'm basically trying to say that debate on OtakuBoards is fine...as long as we understand that debates shouldn't get personal and that we can all debate without getting nasty about it. I think Justin and Heaven's Cloud in particular have been very good in this regard...Heaven's Cloud seems to be able to state his case without getting angry with people. That's what I want to see. :)[/color] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eleanor Posted July 8, 2002 Share Posted July 8, 2002 Hm, that speech had some bad mistakes in it, I think, but every president makes mistakes once in a while right? I mean, he must be in a lot of pressure after the September 11th attacks. And Parabola, I agree with Heaven's Cloud completely. I have nothing to say about it because I think we shouldn't waste our time dissing other people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't worry about me. I'm heartless...;P In any case, is someone innocent when they support the attacks of helpless people in a plane and in a building and they back terrorists? I didn't think so. And don't even think about giving a rebuttal on this case about the US bombing houses in the Middle East. Those people can run.

Parabola- Posted July 9, 2002 Share Posted July 9, 2002 The Americans here are only mad at me, because I had a different opinion. Why become a member here, if you can't have your own opinion? Must I agree with what everyone else says here? Don't take your frustration and anger at me after 9/11. If I had come on here and said, "Bomb the Middle East, get rid of all the terrorists", almost every American would say "Hell yeah" etc. And my posts wouldn't be "idiotic garbage".

Parabola- Posted July 9, 2002 Share Posted July 9, 2002 I understand that BabyGirl. But there's also no evidence bin Laden was behind 9/11 also.

Justin Posted July 9, 2002 Share Posted July 9, 2002 And I wasn't taking frustration about the 9/11 attack out on you. I was arguing with you because you blamed Bush for planning it, which is absurd. And no, if you were to say "Let's go bomb the Middle East!" no one would jump up and say "Hell yeah." At least, I hope not. I've seen many people(in America in general) who are VERY against bombing Afghanistan. That's what worries me. I'm afraid that if we did discover and capture those who were behind it, that people would want them tried in a court in their home country. I don't think that's right... -Justin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My bad...@_@;;; But seriously... People are too quick to judge America. They mock us for our point of views, when they don't even know what it feels like to be us. People who live over in, like, Britian, for example, would say that America is being stupid, carrying on with these rebuttal attacks. But then, Britian wasn't the one attacked. So I have this to say. Until you've lived your entire lives in the US, felt what Americans have felt, experienced what we've experienced, keep your useless critizism to yourself.

Justin Posted July 11, 2002 Share Posted July 11, 2002 No, we don't have the right to point fingers at people of Arabic decent. But we do have the right to vengence against the parties responsible. However, the identity of those parties are still not completely clear. Until then, we are fighting the most likely parties, who are themselves terrorist and criminal organizations. -Justin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(2)Of course we didn't deserve the sept.11 attack!! (3) The attack was horrible. The terrorists had no right to do it, and no one ever will have the right to go out and kill innocent people. there. that's all there is to it.

eleanor Posted July 12, 2002 Share Posted July 12, 2002 [QUOTE](1)Anyway, just bombing Afghanistan isn't as easy as you think. [/QUOTE] Yes, you're right Juuthena. And anyways, most people in Afganistan weren't dancing around in the streets. I really do feel sorry for the kids in Afganistan, and the woman, because they went through all that trouble because of the Taliban. And on top of that, the children were practically starving because Afganistan was so poor! Then the woman, they had to go around wearing those stupid cloaks that covered their whole body, and they could barely see. A man could kill a woman, and he'd be given no punishment whatsoever.

Justin Posted July 12, 2002 Share Posted July 12, 2002 No one would treat you any differently. You see, it's not so much that your ideas and opinions are outrageous, it's that you insist just because many of us are American that we hate the Middle East. THAT is what pisses me off. How many times must we tell you that we don't hate Arabs? You've yet to provide ANY substantial evidence that Iraelis control anything except Israel. So, please, if you'd be so kind, enlighten me as to how Israel does all these things? And please, shut up about America. You really don't have any idea what you're talking about. You don't see any Americans talking about England... -Justin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
