Not that it really matters… But its the Land of the Free and the Home of the brave.
Just sayin!

Yes Nerishmo. If an American had posted it to begin with then it would have been an open discussion. The only problem I had with the post was that it was made by a person who uses “American” as an insult. The post was not opened to start a discussion, it was started to “flame” America. Disagree with me if u wish, but Kalashi has resentment towards the USA, and when he makes a post about American politics with the clear sarcasm that he included in his post it will be taken as an insult, and DOES NOT BELONG ON THIS FORUM.

k, I understand now.

Ah… the Patriot Act… many have debated over this long and hard (and on more suitable forums)
For those not familiar… the complete text and explanation can be found here…

Please pay particular attention the the “Dispelling the Myths” section. And more closely at the 3rd myth…
The FBI has always had the ability to act without a judges pre approval, especially in cases where time is critical… terrorism has just been added to that list of crimes.

And since the government now has the power to declare ANYONE a terrorist to the United States…
meh personally i dont care about political crap like this. Humans in general are stupid creatures and can not govern themselves 100% correctly therefore every goverment will have things in it that will piss some ppl off and apeal to others. As we all know espeisally when you look at MA’s hard job of running PE you can’t make everyone happy you have to just make the right desicions.
I kinda of like that about PE. there is no voting MA takes a look at what the people want and takes a look at the system and makes the best descion they can with all the facts and opionions. not saying i want RL to be like that. Just saying it’s easyer to enjoy PE with it like that.
And if you want some realy entertaining government take a loot at us Canadian’s listing to the news lately is like a soap opera.
If I want to debate international and domestic policy, I visit one of many poltical forums. I come to EF to talk about game and discuss things somewhat relevent to game or to us gamers.
Threads such as this bring about resentment and hatred, very sadly.
For once I should like to be able to play a game and visit a forum where I am not labelled an American, where my fellow gamer is not just a Dane or a Russian or a Spaniard… but where we are all individuals and politics stays out of it.
*Sveta- who enjoys lively political and ideological debate in private however 
Awww you guys are no fun…
ok, I’ll shuddup then.

fair enough comment but,
Off topic
Chat about anything not related to Project-Entropia™.
Only MB can decide what does and does not stay here 
And judging from previous political posts (ie Faustian had one about American troops), I do believe this thread will also be locked.
We shall see- but as I said, if I wish to debate policy I go to forums that are about just that, and also where I know that the ppl posting are quite educated and informed on the subject matter.
well at the very least this topic has been useful in pointing out a gray area for mindbuster to condsider adding to the forum rules

agreed
Im with Kalashi. =P
This new ‘patriot part2’ act, giving the american powers that be ‘administrative subpoenas’ (aka warants without a judge) .. hemm. what to say ..
Well.. The terrorists hate freedom right? Thats what the US media tells the public? That the reason everyone is attacking them is because they resent ‘freedom’? ..
So I guess the stance the administration has taken, is that in order for terrorism to stop, they must .. restrict freedom? :laugh:
Thank heavens I live in Canada.
here’s a funny joke to part on,
“My dad was in the Vietnam war.. He was stationed in Canada.”
har har har! (not really tho)

ooops

Yup…
There are tons of places to dicuss politics, this place is for PE and fun, yes, politics can be fun to discuss, but this isnt the place for it.
Only PE politics here, and MA has said several times that there will come politics in PE, until then, keep RL politics out of here, thanks.
