My government sucks. They're now filled with stupid Conservatives and Liberals. We also have a prime minister who looks like Harry Potter, and is just as a spoiled brat as him.

A month ago, Neo-Nazi's had permission to hold a march, but when Anarchists (like me) requested to hold a march against facism, it was refused.

So, my government is perfectly okay with people who are worse that UnixSucks.com (a member who repeatedly said that Niggers are evil), but my government is not okay with an political movement that comes close to socialism. Fuck the government, and esspecialy fuck that stupid bitch called our queen (you can actually get arrested here when you edit a photo of the queen and hang it on your window).

Ridiculous.

It's ok to dislike another country, but Americans are acting like morons! Freedom fries, wasting perfectly good b00ze, holding long lasting grudges because someone disagrees with an INSIGNIFICANT war? It's called being a pussy! Are Americans pussies? I thought they were tough mofo's!

I only hate the American government, the people are to be excused, but sometimes I have trouble with this. Sometimes the American people really do give themselves a bad name(as opposed to the government). But at the same time, no matter what the people are up to, there is many Americans that are good people who realize what is wrong with their country.

This is what people don't get about us canadians

if you guys think it's bad on the outside... imagine the shit we have to put up with as citizens. being an american means that you have two keepers... Washington, and Corporate America.

Bush really is a poor president... if it weren't for Powell and Rumsfeld, this whole "war on terror" would consist of monkey boy George lobbing nukes at everybody who doesn't bow down to us and our every decision.

Americans are also the most ignorant people in the world. I'd definitely consider myself to be pretty damn open minded, well educated, and... well... most unlike the sheep. Then I see all the folks from Europe, or Austrailia... or... anywhere... and I realize that I've still got a long way to go.

I hope the republicans and the democrats both choke on fried chicken bones. our government is a joke with it's "two party system"... but then, I think everyone's government is a joke these days. business has its hand in everything nowadays... it's getting hard for people to even live without having to deal with bullshit at least five times a day.

Hey, to all the Englishmen... mind if I come hide out over there? This place is a motherfucking joke.

As for disallowing the French to come to E3... can someone explain to me... WHY?!? I don't think that every Frenchman came together and decided that they, as a collective nation would give us the finger. Why this then? Let's all act like grownups here and get along.

The whole anti-French thing is dumb, I agree, but it is a lot of fun to make fun of them and call french fries freedom fries. The worst part of this whole thing is that a lot of French restaurants have gone out of business. What people don't think about though, is that those are Americans they are putting out of business.

Do you know what the worst thing of all this is? That some people are willing to hold a grudge for weeks and months just because a government didn

Blair was wrong. UK's song was really shit. The only song that was good, came from Belgium. Oh, and the one from Russia kicked arse
