What is an American?

[Mihlrad]

I though california had really strict gun rules and theyre illegal there.
Im quite happy here in NZ where the country side is like 25min from the main city

dude in california its legal to fire model rockets the size of cruise missles (we know someone who does or at least used to im not sure if they still do) They use an engine that is rated M or higher... the tiny rockets you can get at the local hobby shop use D or E tops...

I imagine that if you can fire what basically is a missle, you can fire a potato...


Kid: "Look ma... is that a cruise missle?"
Mom: "Doubt it dont worry, just some guy with a model rocket."

Wait for it....

Mom: "OMG A CRUISE POTATO GET FORK DOWN"







By the way, yea i got way too much free time.

combustion spud guns are considered firearms in california, and yes, they have some of the strictest gun laws in the U.S.

France doesn't allow muslims to wear their head scarfs.

well good thing im not muslim.every country has a good and bad but there are to many veriabals,depends on peoples beliefs,interests,nationality,personality.really there is no one country that is better then the other at everything.there are just countrys that people like more then an other.I think New Zealand is great but our military sucks,we only have 4million people(good and bad)we arnt highly developed with only a few big cities,our prime minister is a female and many more but then we have our good sides which there are too many for me to name 8)

edit: thanks beebs i knew i read that somewhere on the forums.

How can you even QUESTION the freedoms that America offers? Ok, sure, I will admit that there is some racial issues; but people are not getting killed over these issues (on a large scale I mean). Its basically impossible to have a country that is completely, 100% fair towards everyone.

And much of the aggression that America has towards various groups of people is not unfounded; the illegal immigrants coming into America are ruining the lives of legal Americans by taking jobs for lower pay, tax issues, etc...

And the high average weight of Americans simply reflects the fact that our lifestyle is so much greater than that of people in other countries, starvation is not even an issue; there is PLENTY of food

No wonder all of the illegal immigrants come to America and not other countries... CAUSE ITS THE BEST!

Heres how it works out in my book:
1) America
2) Australia/ nearby islands
3) Germany

just my views though...

2) Canada
3) Sweden probably. Not sure. Or maybe 2nd. Again not sure.

[beebs111]

you guys, is there really any debate? america is the best. period. okay, you can think differently but you can never change the facts that us americans live in the best place on the planet.
1) america
2)holland
3)mexico just because there is no law there so you can do pretty-much whatever you want

[huse_spud]

everyone shut up please.

[M3NT4L]

Yep thats true americans are pissed off at immigrants for taking theyr jobs, that only means one thing americans are whiny and incompetent. If you want something you have to fight for it not cry about it.

All you non-americans can keep on whining and trying to attack America. But like beebs111 said: america is the best. period.

I don't even understand how this arguement got started up?

America is like a sack of cash, while other countries are $1. You people that have the $1 bills (in other words, live in other countries) say that $1 is more portable, and having a sack of cash (living in america) is terrible because its heavy, you might lose some, blah blah blah. But come on; i'd take a sack of money over $1 any day!

Sorry for the completely random analogy that really was terrible and that really didnt make any sense, not even to me
