Who was it who said the U.S. is engaged in a dangerous shift towards fundamentalist non-secularism?

Your link isn't working.

although i can't see your link, what would make you think that news that is nearly 3 weeks old would not have already been talked about? and even if it hadn't been, this is exactly the kind of topic that the POLI bitch and moan forum was created for.

that is all.

"And it was a reference to a movie" well that's a good reason for offending people. Frankly I don't think my grandma hoping a flight, or my five year old kid (who I don't have mind you), should have to be subject to someone else's lack of class. Your freedom shouldn't infringe on my right to live my life in peace. Soon as you shove your freedom in my face, be ready for me to shove back, and keep in mind I might shove harder.

Yeah, I love that non sequitur. "This shirt would be offensive, but it resembles a movie title, and things resembling movie titles cannot be offensive."

Does that mean that people who are wearing the new Diesel winter collection should be arrested and fined for wearing what they might consider "classy"?

Hello Mr. Quebec, you hail from a fascist province where store owners are fined if their English font is too large on their store signs. Worry about your own corrupt country before pointing your dirty fingers at others, especially when you have no point to make. Do you get your news extremely late ? This story is already very old.

As for this "T-shirt" story, the woman was booted off the flight because her T-Shirt said "Meet the F U C K E R S". Is that too hard for you to comprehend ? The nasty liberal woman wore an offensive T-Shirt with obscene language on it and such people are not allowed to fly on most airlines. Liberals should look into alternative modes of transportation if they must share their vulgarity and obscene behavior with the rest of society.

Yeah, I thought we resolved this several weeks ago. It was not the political message that mattered. It was the fact that she was openly displaying vulgar language and refused to cover it up on a plane that had an anti-obscenity policy.

See I would post pics of rally cars, but I didn't take that many. I took footage, which requires me to edit it before I post it.

First of all I'm not from Quebec you stupid f*ck, "upwind" usually implies "away" from the scent of something foul, in this case both Quebec and you. Second of all, the statement was rhetorical, but I guess that explains why teacher never let you play with the plastic scissors you small joke of a human being.

Did you have something suspiciously large inserted into your anus while you were typing that ? (not that there's anything wrong with that of course.) All of that anger is surely not healthy for a person such as yourself. A small penis size is nothing to be ashamed of. You are certainly not alone, though you shouldn't let that particular defect affect your mental well being. You can still learn to be a happy and productive human being and also possess a small penis without pretending to be an angry midget on the internet.

Anger? That's funny considering the tone of your initial response to my first post sh*t for brains.

PacHead usually is the hothead in a thread, but you sound like you're hopped up on meth.

Worth Repeating.

I also think they should start banning people who start PL and Religious threads in here as a habit.
